Hello!
It's lovely to meet you.
My name is Lynn Kirk and I live in Quorn, North Leicestershire with my husband, two daughters and our miniature sausage dogs, Lola and Dolly. I understand when life is busy it’s easy for our homes to become cluttered - I’ve been there! I also know how life can transform when you tidy and organise your home.
​
My tidying journey began in 2016 when I read The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying. by Japanese organising expert, Marie Kondo. As a busy working mum, overwhelmed with stuff, I was keen to try anything that promised to ‘banish clutter forever’. The results truly were life-changing. I got rid of two thirds of my clothes and car loads of stuff left the house. I love living with less; life is easier, less stressful and everyone feels happier.
​
I felt so much happier after tidying my own home, it inspired a change of career! After a successful career in marketing and education, I retrained with Marie Kondo in New York and APDO (Association of Professional Declutterers and Organisers) here in the UK to become a KonMari® Consultant and Professional Organiser. It’s a great way to put my project management and coaching skills to good use! It’s the loveliest job and I am very grateful to be able to support my wonderful clients on their life-changing journey.
The KonMari Method®
The Philosophy​
​
The KonMari Method® was developed by tidying Consultant, Marie Kondo and is based on the idea of keeping in your life only the things that speak to your heart or 'spark joy'.
​
If your belongings longer spark joy, they are thanked for the role they have played in your life before they are respectfully let go of.
​
What people love about this philosophy is not only that it is effective, but also that it is such a mindful, optimistic and reflective approach. The benefits go far beyond having a tidy home - it’s about choosing a more simple, joyful life.
