About this episode
Marie Kondo’s unique approach to organising our lives and our homes has transformed the relationship we have with the objects around us, helping us all to seek out the joy in our daily lives. In the eleven years since The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up made her famous across the globe, journalists, readers and fans have asked her one question more than any other: what role did Japanese philosophy and culture play in shaping her life and thought? Here, Marie shares her principles for living, and reveal how the traditions of her homeland can help all of us to spark joy. She shares personal insights into her upbringing, family and career, and explores how Japanese people often combine an ultramodern lifestyle with deep respect for ancient customs and traditions.
