How Simplicity Sparks Joy with Tim Lucier
Text your thoughts and questions!
Marie Kondo’s Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up is over a decade old and still a polarizing point in the organizing world. Some found her system life changing, some thought it fell flat. I can see both sides and believe there are some aspects that need clarifying. That’s why episode 17 of The Positively Living Podcast is about how simplicity sparks joy!
If you’re a DIY dynamo looking for simplicity and productivity support, you’ll find it in the Positively Productive Resources Vault. It’s packed with the worksheets, checklists, workbooks, and recordings I use with clients including my Declutter + Destress workbook.

In this episode of The Positively Living Podcast, Tim Lucier, a Certified Konmari Consultant, is shedding light on Marie Kondo’s approach and highlighting its elements of simplicity and gratitude. Tim and I cover the following topics:
- Tim’s story and why Marie Kondo’s system works for him
- What Spark Joy means to him (and it’s really good!)
- How seeking simplicity can help you assess aspects of your life
- How Marie Kondo teaches us to honor what we own
- What steps you can take right now to start decluttering
- How to add habits to be incredibly productive
I think you’ll enjoy a fresh perspective on a system that’s been around for almost a decade and I hope you’ll be inspired to find a way for simplicity to spark joy in your life.
