The Story Behind RE-FOCUS THE CREATIVE OFFICE
The idea for RE-FOCUS THE CREATIVE OFFICE was born in March 2019 out of a mother’s love and determination. Founder Angela Stephens, who was a single mother for 10 years, sought innovative ways to support her son, who had been diagnosed with ADHD in the 5th grade. When traditional methods fell short, Angela began to see the world through his eyes, researching and implementing strategies to improve his focus and well-being.
"I watched webinars, conducted extensive research, read articles on ADHD, attended seminars, and listened to ADHD experts on different ideas that could help my son do better in school and in life," Angela explains. "In addition, I focused on nutrition and other ideas to help him focus."
As a business owner, Angela realized that many of these strategies could also benefit her team. She began integrating them into her business, with CFO Darold Sauber contributing insights from helping their son with homework. The realization that individuals of all ages face challenges with focus, organization, and memory inspired the company's mission.
Whether it's managing daily tasks, navigating technology, or coping with stress, RE-FOCUS THE CREATIVE OFFICE provides tools and resources to help individuals thrive. We understand that everyone learns and works differently, which is why we offer a range of solutions, from visual paper products to innovative focus aids.
And the best part? That child who inspired it all is now a thriving 24 year old! Angela herself was diagnosed with ADHD at 45, further fueling her passion for helping others.
