The Clutter Fairy Weekly #123

Life-changing Magic: The KonMari Method in Philosophy and Practice 2

Our first Marie Kondo episode generated so much conversation that we’ve decided to extend this topic to a three-part series. Kondo’s bestselling book, The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up, upended the conventional wisdom about organizing and introduced a new approach to decluttering: The KonMari Method. In episode #123 of The Clutter Fairy Weekly, Gayle Goddard, professional organizer and owner of The Clutter Fairy in Houston, Texas, continues our exploration of the Marie Kondo approach to organizing and talks with people who’ve used the KonMari Method about their experiences.

This is the second episode of a three-part series about the work of Marie Kondo. You may still respond to the survey discussed in the episode, Marie Kondo in Her Own Words: Quotations and Discussion Questions.

Weekly Tittle

The Weekly Tittle is an exercise designed to focus your attention on a specific space, aspect, or challenge of decluttering and organizing your home. We assign a new tittle in each webcast/podcast, then check on your progress the following week.


We were so busy reviewing all the responses to our survey that we forgot to come up with a new tittle for this week. If you haven’t already done it, we encourage you to try last week’s tittle—or try it again on a new category of clutter.
