Before KonMari, my life was a mess—literally and figuratively. Depression and unemployment had stripped the joy from my daily existence, making it difficult to engage with friends and family. My bedroom was full of mess that mirrored my internal chaos and anxiety.
One day, I finally opened The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up that had been sitting untouched on my shelf. Page by page, I began to rediscover purpose. The book gave me a meaningful task to wake up for each morning. Fully committing to the KonMari Method became my path to reclaiming control.
As I sorted through possessions, asking what sparked joy, I felt something shift. Each item I released brought me closer to my ideal lifestyle—one free from stress where I could truly enjoy my beautiful apartment, return to work, and reconnect with loved ones.
All these hopes materialized as I completed my “tidying festival.” Years later, when I discovered the possibility of becoming a KonMari Consultant, I immediately recognized my calling: helping others rediscover joy in their spaces and lives, just as I had done for myself.
