Who I am

Welcome!

I'm Solange Martins Steain, or simply Sol Martins, the Professional Organiser and Feng Shui Consultant behind Living Happy. Based on the Mid North Coast, NSW, I specialise in decluttering, home organisation, unpacking, and downsizing, helping you create calm, functional spaces that truly support your daily life.

My Story

Like many people, my life changed significantly when I became a mum. With less time, more responsibilities, and constant demands, my home became harder to manage. I felt overwhelmed, mentally exhausted, and surrounded by disorder — a feeling I know many of my clients can relate to.

​

Having lived through that experience myself, I understand how deeply our environment affects our wellbeing. That understanding is what led me to turn my natural organising ability into a professional service.

​​

More Than Just Organising

I create homes that are not only organised and harmonious, but also support your health and wellbeing. Located in Diamond Beach on the Mid North Coast, NSW, I bring a personalised, practical approach to every space I work in. Organisation has always come naturally to me, but it was through my life experience as a mum, a housewife, and now a single mum, that I realised my strength and true purpose, helping others by doing what I genuinely love: transforming chaos into calm and creating homes that support clarity, balance, and ease. ​

​

I do this through practical organising and intentional energy layout, always without judgement and with systems designed to last. My service goes beyond simply “tidying up”. I take a personalised and structured approach because I understand that each person has a different organising style, every home functions differently, and what works for one person may not work for another.

​

Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all method, I create tailored systems that suit your habits, lifestyle, and energy — so your space stays organised long after I leave. What I enjoy most is the transformation, not just in the space, but in how people feel within it. Seeing the relief, clarity, and confidence that come from a well-organised and balanced environment is incredibly rewarding.

​

I am deeply passionate about helping people bring order and peace into their lives. By removing clutter and creating practical organising systems, I help relieve the mental weight and overwhelm that often come with disorganised spaces, so you can feel calmer, less stressed, and free to spend more time doing what you love with the people you love.​

Professional Development & Expertise

Continuous learning is important to me because I want to provide thoughtful, high-quality services to my clients.

 I have completed formal training in Professional Organising and hold a Certificate IV in Feng Shui through the Australian College of Environmental Studies - a comprehensive two-year part-time course that deepened my understanding of how our environments influence both functionality and wellbeing. This training expands my ability to support not only practical organisation, but also the flow, balance, and overall feeling of a space. ​

My studies include:

 Intentional decluttering practices • Traditional Feng Shui principles (Form, Compass and Flying Star Schools) • Space clearing techniques  • Geomancy • Healthy home principles, including identifying environmental factors that may impact health and wellbeing.

​

In addition to my formal education, I have invested extensively in self-development. I have read and listened to dozens of books and audiobooks across areas, such as decluttering and organising methodologies, Feng Shui and environmental psychology, business and administration, and personal development.

​

This allows me to combine practical systems, mindset support, and environmental awareness into every project I undertake.​ By blending these principles with my professional organising expertise, I create spaces that are not only functional but also balanced, supportive, and aligned with your goals.

My work is designed to create lasting change — not just a quick reset. While many organising services focus only on the physical space, I consider both the practical function and the overall feel of your environment.
