Say No To Toxic Organization with Amanda Jefferson

“Does it spark joy?”

If that question sounds familiar, then you may be as big of a Marie Kondo fan as we are.

So, you can imagine how excited we are to bring you today’s guest, Amanda Jefferson, who is one of the world’s first KonMari consultants.

Like a salve for our inner perfectionist selves, Amanda offers an alternative to the toxic organization that our culture and consumerism try to sell us.

Just like perfectionistic beauty standards, perfectionistic organizing standards won’t bring us happiness — but being ruthless about what brings us joy just might.
