Kondo is the guru of the so-called “mindful organization” movement. Her KonMari tidying method involves assessing the emotional value of each item in our surroundings. Objects that no longer “spark joy” are banished—unworn clothes, travel souvenirs, old love letters, even books (!). Her strict space-clearing philosophy also involves thanking each item before getting rid of it. Her acolytes or “Konverts” attest to the transformative effect of reckoning with every object that clutters your life.

The structure of the Netflix show isn’t entirely clear, but Kondo wrote on Instagram that she “will be guiding individuals who are at a crossroads to spark joy in their homes and lives.” Titled “Organize the World with Marie Kondo,” the show will be streamed to Netflix’s 117 million subscribers around the world.
