FAQ
Why choose to work with Mimi Bogelund of The Organised Home & Life?
I know what it’s like to go from ‘not having space to think’ to ‘having a clear mind’ after the process. I am passionate about helping others to experience the same.
Working with like-minded people who want to make a positive change to their lives fills me with enthusiasm. Having personal experience of this highly effective method means I know that it works. See testimonials.
With 5 years’ experience working as a fully accredited KonMari Consultant, I have learned so much from my clients and hands on experience.
The International KonMari community of Consultants provides a unique resource of best practice and the latest updates on all things tidying & organisation.
I will forever feel grateful for the formal training provided by Marie Kondo and her team at The San Francisco seminar.
“The reason why clearing clutter is so effective is that whilst you’re putting your external world in order, there are corresponding changes going on internally too.”

How does the KonMari Method® differ from just organising?
Is using the services of a Professional Organiser worth it?
Will you make me throw things away?
How long does it take to complete the KonMari® process?
Will I have to be there throughout the tidying?
KonMari Method® is highly collaborative and requires us to work together. However, if this doesn’t suit your requirements for any reason (e.g. time constraints/ill health) I can personalise my service to your needs and can undertake tasks, to brief, without you being directly involved in the process.
What do I need to get ready before you come?
What if I only need a few hours?
Will my sessions be confidential?
What payment methods are accepted?
What areas do you cover?
I have a home in West Sussex, a base in London and can easily cover East Sussex and Surrey too. I am happy to travel to any area if you are happy to work with me.
How does the KonMari Method® differ from minimalism?
KonMari Method® connects you with everything that you love. There is no limit to how much you can keep and no pressure to get rid of anything. The method is about surrounding yourself with things that bring you joyful pleasure, and that are easy to find and easy to put back. Whereas minimalism focuses on sparseness and simplicity.
