Of course, we love Marie Kondo and the KonMarie method of only keeping stuff that sparks joy. That is the foundation of minimalism and we inherently knew this feeling of satisfaction, long before Marie Kondo named it and wrote the book, The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up, back in 2014. It is life changing- we truly believe that taking control of your stuff and space is what frees you up to go on and live your best, most productive life. However there is a dark side of downsizing if done without the consideration of how all that stuff got into your home in the first place and avoiding the truth of where it goes after you are done with it.
