Why Hire a KonMari Consultant?
Ever felt overwhelmed by your possessions and not sure where to start? Wish you could find more time in your day? Lost items in your home? Would like to free up time to do hobbies? Have you found yourself in a cycle of having to constantly declutter? If you responded yest to any of these questions then it might be time to invest in a KonMari Consultant to help you gain control and reclaim your space and time.
Decluttering and organising takes effort. In our busy lives it can be hard to find the time and energy to carry this out. Some people can read Marie Kondo’s books and complete their tidying journey on their own. For others, they may need support. If you fall into the latter group, then there is nothing to feel guilty about. Tidying (decluttering and organising) is a skill, and it is not one that we are taught growing up. So if you are struggling to keep on top of everything, then investing in a KonMari Consultant may be just what you need. A KonMari consultant can assist you in learning this skill, transforming your home and your mindset.
Certified KonMari Consultants go through an extensive process with the KonMari Media Inc. and we practice what we teach. For me, the KonMari Method was positively life-changing for not only my home but my entire life. This is why I am so passionate about helping others through the process to achieve a more organised life, that sparks joy. KonMari consultants are coaches, and just like any other coach (eg I have a personal trainer) we save you time, hold you accountable, and provide you with the opportunity to learn from an expert in the field.
Here are some of the advantages you can experience hiring a KonMari Consultant:
Save You Time
Have you ever tried to do something on your own, spent hours on it, and felt like you achieved nothing? Or perhaps you started tidying and then got distracted and time ticked on by. Or perhaps you put tidying on your to-do list and then it keeps slipping off the list. When working with a KonMari Consultant, time is blocked out and you are committed to tidying. During our sessions, I ensure we stay focused on tidying.
“Yesterday I would have just sat around ruminating about other things rather than getting it done.”– Live Life Organised In-Home client after her first session
Save You Money
When we live in a cluttered environment it can be hard to find things. We often end up wasting money purchasing duplicate items. Working through a ‘tidying festival’ will also result in a change in mindset in relation to future spending. Rather than just shopping for the sake of shopping (or to fulfill an emotional need) you will purchase and bring into the home only those items that genuinely spark joy.
“Being able to see everything easily from my clothes in my wardrobe to food in the pantry reminds me of what I have and what I really need. There are no more buying excess items because I thought I needed them or didn’t know I already had them.” - Live Life Organised In-Home client

You Get a Roadmap
It can feel overwhelming to declutter and organise your home. You may not know where to start. My role as a KonMari Consultant will include developing a personalised plan for you, based on your ideal lifestyle and environment. I will guide you through the steps and can provide homework tasks along the way, ensuring you stay on track.
Physical and Emotional Support
During tidying sessions (for in-home clients), I will assist you in gathering your items from across the home and sort them into categories. My caoching involves guiding and facilitating you through the process of joy-checking and decision-making. I will ask a lot of questions, coaching you to confront your stuff and understand the cause of your clutter. I support you in getting to your final decision on whether to keep or let go.
A KonMari coach supports you throughout this emotional and personal journey. I will ensure you keep going and are motivated during sessions. I will ensure you don't avoid facing clutter, moving it from room to room, or boxing up things to work through ‘later’. I will help you deal with your things once and for all, resulting in a change in your mindset when it comes to acquiring new things in the future.
Accountability
Think of me as your accountability coach. Working with a KonMari professional is like having a supportive friend to walk you through the process. I will provide you with the skills to declutter and store, a roadmap, offer suggestions when you get stuck, and keep you on track, motivated, and moving. And we will have a lot of fun along the way.
Access to Expertise & Experience
I am an expert in the method, so can keep you on track and ensure you reach your end goal.
I will also teach you maintenance skills to ensure you don’t relapse into a cluttered environment again. I can also provide advice on donating and selling items that no longer spark joy – with an environmentally friendly attitude towards each item. In between sessions, I am available to answer any queries in relation to your homework.
I will help you figure out how to store everything to keep things tidy. It is important that we work together to set up systems of organisation. If you are not involved and I do this when you are not home, then it is likely you will relapse into clutter again. My aim as a KonMari Consultant is to ensure you do not need to hire me again.
Lifetime Benefits
The KonMari Method® involves a once-in-a-lifetime tidy-up of your whole house. After applying the method you will have the skills to maintain an organised home and won’t be in an endless cycle of having to do a big declutter every year. Whilst it is a financial investment, this once-in-a-lifetime investment in a KonMari Consultant will ultimately save you time and money, and peace of mind. Unlike the dollars, you spend at the hairdresser or beauty salon, where the results are amazing but only last 6 weeks, an investment in a KonMari Consultant is life-changing and the effects are life-long.

“At the start of the program I had no idea how effective it would be or how capable I could be in achieving the decluttering goals. It is miraculous.” - Carolyn, Declutter Your Home and Life Program
