Podcast appearances and mentions of Marie Kondo

Marijn talks about his new session that is delivering in Helsinki and Oslo. That one is about finding a methodology to handle data, and Marijn chooses the Marie Kondo method. Initially, Steve can't stop laughing about it, but he is won over when Marijn says the magic word (which is not whisky). The whisky is a sherry finished Islay bomb.

Love decluttering videos, but hate home organising in real life? Too much stuff can make us feel stressed, but parting with objects isn't always easy. This week, what your clutter says about you, and how you can get on top of it.

In this episode of Numbers and Narratives, host Sean Collins sit down with Saverio Bianchi, founder of Atelier & Avenue, a boutique e-commerce and digital transformation consultancy. With over 20 years of experience working with luxury brands like Ferrari, LVMH, and L'Oreal, Saverio offers a unique perspective on the current state of direct-to-consumer (DTC) businesses. He discusses the challenges facing DTC brands, including rising ad costs, investor pressures, and the shift towards omnichannel strategies. Saverio emphasizes the importance of creating desire and standing out in an increasingly crowded market, urging brands to be brave and innovative in their approach to growth. He also delves into the critical role of data and insights in decision-making, highlighting the common pitfall of being "data-rich but insights poor." Saverio provides valuable advice on how to overcome this challenge, suggesting that brands "Marie Kondo" their KPIs and focus on actionable insights. This episode is a must-listen for anyone involved in e-commerce, digital marketing, or brand strategy, offering practical wisdom and fresh perspectives on navigating the evolving DTC landscape.https://www.linkedin.com/in/saveriobianchi/https://www.atelierandavenue.com/

"Burn the data. Start fresh. The past you is holding your fleet hostage."  Detailed Episode SummaryIn this episode of The Fleet Success Show, Josh Turley and Marc Canton tackle one of the most contentious topics in fleet management: data retention. From government fleets clutching onto 26 years of work orders to fleet managers hoarding “just in case” data, they dismantle the myths about keeping everything forever.They explore why data older than five years is almost always useless for analytics, how “garbage in, garbage out” isn't just a cliché, and why old data often comes with old bad habits baked in. Along the way, they unpack sunk cost fallacy in a fleet context, the hidden dangers of “organizational garbage,” and why purging or rolling up data can speed up your fleet maintenance management software and help you focus on what actually matters today.With plenty of real-world examples, humor, and a few spicy analogies (think Marie Kondo meets fleet management), Josh and Marc show how a clean data start can set you — and your future fleet managers — up for massive success. Key Takeaways5 years or less of historical data is sufficient for most fleet analytics — older data is often irrelevant.Old data often carries inconsistent practices from multiple fleet managers, creating “organizational garbage.”Hoarding data “just in case” is driven by fear, but it often slows down systems and clutters decision-making.Rolling up or archiving old data keeps it accessible without polluting your active fleet maintenance system.A new FMIS implementation is the perfect opportunity to clean house — and resist carrying over bad processes.Your metrics should drive your data collection, not the other way around. Speaker BiosJosh Turley – CEO of RTA: The Fleet Success Company. With over two decades in fleet management and software innovation, Josh leads RTA's mission to help fleets save $1 billion. Known for his strategic vision and no-nonsense approach, Josh is passionate about empowering fleets through better processes, technology, and leadership.Marc Canton – Fleet Consultant & Data Analytics Expert at RTA. Marc brings nearly 30 years of fleet experience, including 20 years running Fordham University's fleet in NYC and a decade in consulting. He specializes in helping fleets leverage data to make smarter, faster, and more profitable decisions.

Meg Wolitzer presents three works about squabbles between people who love one another most.  Jenny Allen's “In the Car” chronicles the European road trip of a long married couple—and he won't ask for directions. The reader is Alysia Reiner.  In Jade Jones' “Your Aunt Thinks She Ramona Africa,” a close family doesn't know what to do with a nonconformist.  Crystal Dickinson reads.  And in “CobRa,” by Katherine Heiny, the methods of uncluttering guru Marie Kondo almost tidy away a marriage.  Peter Grosz reads.

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR NERVOUS BREAKDOWN(IT'S ABOUT DAMN TIME)Your self-sabotage has better timing than a cosmic laugh track, and your emotional baggage would make Marie Kondo have an existential crisis. But stay tuned, because this episode is about to turn your personal hell into performance art.Welcome to Los Angeles, where the sunrise is always Instagram-ready and meditation studios outnumber therapy offices because nobody can afford both. We're diving deep into the beautiful mess of being human while the city pretends it isn't having a collective nervous breakdown.Get ready for:- Why your stress isn't a design flaw – it's a feature of being deliciously alive- How to turn your emotional dumpster fire into a beacon of self-discovery- The art of laughing at yourself before the universe beats you to the punchline- Why your dreams are trying to tell you something (and it's probably not what your shaman thinks)This isn't another mindfulness masterclass where you'll learn to breathe your way out of existence. This is a full-contact sport with your shadow self, and spoiler alert: it fights dirty.WARNING: Side effects may include:- Sudden attacks of authentic self-expression- The ability to find humor in your trauma- Decreased effectiveness of your usual self-sabotage techniques- Uncontrollable urges to write poetry about your pain- A strange new comfort with being uncomfortableListen as we explore why your personal growth looks more like interpretive dance than a linear journey, and why that's sexier than any self-help book you'll never finish reading.From sunrise ceremonies to midnight meltdowns, we're teaching you to embrace the cosmic comedy of trying to fix yourself while the universe keeps changing the punchline.Stop pretending you've got your shit together. Start collecting the pieces like they're limited edition trading cards of your evolution.Available now wherever you get your permission to be gloriously imperfect.Remember: Growth isn't a journey. It's a series of beautiful disasters that eventually make sense – or don't. And that's the joke we're all part of.Trust me. I'm just as fucked up as you are, and that's exactly why you should listen.Welcome to the revolution between your breakdowns.Got something to say to me? Slide into the DMs.Support the showIt's OUT!

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we're sharing the relationship habits that have actually helped us (and YOU GUYS) stay connected as new parents — from daily 15-minute check-ins to remembering not to “talk through” your baby. We also talk about what it really means to support your partner through postpartum depression, and how we need to try going to bed at the same time (apparently this is a thing a lot of you guys do??). Before that, we dive into kindergarten cutoff dates (is it better to be old or young for your grade??), the great Diet Coke vs. Diet Pepsi debate, and our first ever MOVIE NIGHT REVIEW of Happy Gilmore 2. Plus, the new “fridge cigarettes” meme and a little closet clean-out convo (Harrison might need to watch the Marie Kondo show??).

You Guys! I was so excited to answer these questions. I love my hobbies so much!!  Right now, travel is a hobby I want to focus on. Greg asked me why I am taking these adult fieldtrips alone? It feeds me. I encourage my family to follow their interests and develop their skills within their hobbies. I am starting to pour into myself like I always have for my family members and I think everyone should do the same, especially the household manager.  Scrapbooking & Photos Disclaimer: I am a hands on scrapbooker. If you are looking for digital suggestions, I am not your guru. Creative Memories was one of the first direct sales companies I worked for. Anna and I discovered that her mom, Donna, was THE creator of the power layouts for scrapbooking specific to Creative Memories. I taught this system to all my customers and little Anna was the one counting all the chipboards that were going into the boxes that I had ordered!! There were questions about sorting, storage, getting started, and product recommendations.  I learned a lot about storage of photos, how the containers matter, and the books you place those precious pictures in matter too. I stand by Creative Memories to this day because of their quality and I am actually still a consultant with them!  The first thing you need to identify is why you want to scrapbook and then you can make an action plan from there. One lady said there were pictures everywhere and how was she going to get them organized quickly because she needed her guest room to be functional soon. I recommend a bulk sort at this stage. Start sorting by decade and go from there because it will take awhile to get all those pictures in albums anyway!  There is a whole section on photo organization in the Saving Your Story Photo Organization Program. Make sure you are journaling to capture why those pictures are important. And then I suggested a few ways you could document pictures quicker and have completed albums.  Books, Audio, and Journaling I don't journal too much but what I may consider journaling is summer time when I think about future ideas. And this is where Embrace came from. I think about the future and who I currently am and where I am going in my personal life and professionally.  I've shared that there was that time when I decided “If it was to be it was up to me.” And that was the catalyst for being mindful of my attitude and what I consume. I make sure to always be consuming content about influential people, presidents, inventors, and the like; this helps me to stay future oriented. Anna also pointed out how one of Organize 365®'s core values is the Power of Positivity. It's a focus for me and my business.  I am a life long learner and I love my books. I am such a compulsive book buyer that even when I couldn't really afford books I would buy them anyway I just can't help myself. I let Marie Kondo talk me into tossing out a bunch of books and boy do I regret getting rid of those books. I've realized I am not a minimalist and I love revisiting my books.  The best way for me to suggest some great reads is through the podcast. I spent a whole year recommending books. And I guess those are my top 52 recommendations. Take the time to live in your hobbies and fill your hobby cup as you fill everyone else's.  EPISODE RESOURCES: The Sunday Basket® The Paper Solution® Saving Your Story Photo Organization Program The Productive Home Solution™ January 2020 Book Reviews (You Tube) (check out the following 11 months for additional book reviews) Sign Up for the Organize 365® Newsletter  Did you enjoy this episode?

In this episode, we dive into Swedish Death Cleaning. Despite its dramatic name, it's a gentle, reflective approach to decluttering that helps reduce the burden on loved ones after we're gone. We also touch on finding your own rhythm with decluttering methods—from the KonMari method to our own to Reset Your Home System—and the power of community in helping you succeed. Ultimately, Swedish Death Cleaning teaches us to lighten the load for others—but the real transformation happens when we lighten it for ourselves.

Timestamps [1:27] Mars enters Virgo this week on June 17 (1:35 AM PDT), through Aug. 6. Mars in Virgo is perfectionistic, try not to second-guess yourself and obsess about details. Take Mars in Leo's creative projects and send them to the editor for refinement. [3:38] Moon Report! The Pisces Last Quarter Moon (June 18, 12:19 PM PDT) is at 27°47' Pisces and Gemini. The Sabian symbol for the Moon is 28 Pisces, A fertile garden under the Full Moon, and the symbol for the Sun is 28 Gemini, A man declared bankrupt. Consider which Gemini New Moon ideas you can let go, a la Marie Kondo. [6:05] Lunar Phase Family Cycle (LPFC). This is the Last Quarter in an LPFC that began on March 21, 2023, with a New Moon at 00°49' Aries. The First Quarter Moon (first action point) was on Dec. 19, 2023, at 27°35' Pisces.  The Full Moon (awareness point) was on Sep. 17, 2024, at 25°40' Pisces. [8:13] Void-of-Course (VOC) Moon periods. On June 16 (10:31 AM PDT), the Moon in Aquarius opposes Mars in Leo. It's VOC for 38 minutes, and then enters Pisces (11:09 AM PDT). Tempers could flare and arguments could ensue. This is a great day to start a new exercise regimen. [9:33] On June 18 (2:34 PM PDT), the Moon in Pisces sextiles Uranus. It's VOC for 1 hour 34 minutes, and then enters Aries (4:08 PM PDT). Play a little hooky, change up your routine or maybe even just disregard routines altogether! [10:34] On June 20 (6:49 PM PDT), the Moon in Aries sextiles the Sun. This is a fast VOC, only 4 minutes, and then the Moon enters Taurus (6:53 PM PDT). Feeling overwhelmed?  Set a timer, and for four minutes, do a breathing exercise. [11:43] On June 22 (6:50 PM PST), the Moon in Taurus conjoins Uranus. It's VOC for 1 hour, 7 minutes, then enters Gemini (7:57 PM PDT). This conjunction takes place on the anaretic (final) degree of 29°18' Taurus. What are the physical, aesthetic, and financial themes that have changed for you since Uranus entered Taurus in 2018? Practice some gratitude for what you've learned during this time. [13:27] On June 18 (8:16 PM PDT), Jupiter squares Neptune at 2°06' Cancer-Aries. This transit happens about every six to seven years. Jupiter and Neptune are both associated with beliefs, but there are fundamental differences between them that can make Jupiter emphasizes knowing and Neptune emphasizes faith. [16:02] The Sun enters Cancer on June 20 (7:42 PM PDT), through July 22. Cancer is a cardinal sign, one of the four signs that initiates a new season of the year. The Cancer solstice marks the official start of summer in the northern hemisphere and the start of winter in the southern hemisphere. Cancer symbolizes extreme protectiveness of those that we feel are part of our clan, family, community, and country. [18:21] Mars sextiles Jupiter on June 22 (3:32 AM PDT) at 2°51' Virgo-Cancer. We can make great strides towards specific goals. This is another excellent time this week to initiate a serious exercise program.  The Sabian symbol for Jupiter is 3 Cancer, A man all bundled up in fur, leading a shaggy deer. [20:06] The Sun squares Saturn on June 22 (11:36 am PDT) at 1°35' Aries- Cancer. This can be a productive and character-building transit, but it usually is not a very cheerful one. It's one of the best transits for building strength and endurance. [21:40] Listener Angeline asks about whether astrology's recent popularity is a trend or a belief system.

What would your ideal modeling workspace look like? It's the question that haunts modelers everywhere as we struggle with overflowing stashes, cluttered benches, and the constant shuffle of moving one project to make room for another. In this episode, we welcome back Panzermeister36 (Evan McCallum) to explore the challenges of creating and maintaining an organized modeling environment.Evan kicks things off with a fascinating firsthand account of his recent trip to the Moson Show in Hungary, where world-class models and unique vendor offerings provided substantial inspiration—and temptation for the wallet. His description of models stacked three deep on display tables, manufacturers offering their own products as awards, and the international camaraderie paints a picture of one of Europe's premier modeling events that might just find its way onto your modeling bucket list.The heart of our discussion centers on decluttering and organizing the modeling life. We tackle the Marie Kondo-inspired question of whether each item in your stash truly "brings modeling joy," explore digital organization systems like ScaleMates to prevent duplicate purchases, and share our visions for perfect workspace configurations. From Dave's quest to rehome books to Mike's plans for custom shelving systems to Evan's apartment-based challenges, we uncover both the universal struggles and personal solutions that shape our hobby spaces.Perhaps most telling is the moment when Evan asks whether better organization will actually solve our problems or if "the mess will just expand to match the workspace." It's a sobering thought that resonates with anyone who's ever upgraded their modeling area only to find it just as cluttered months later.Whether you're modeling from a kitchen table, dedicated room, or dreaming of that perfect future space, this episode offers practical insights to help maximize whatever space you have. After all, in the end, it's not about having the most space—it's about making the most of the space you have.Hobbyist Decals - For custom decals, listener Adam Coleman recommended this site.Bytes & Brushes -  Listener Stephan Lauren's new YouTube Channel to feature reviews of download and print of purchases STL files for modeling parts and accessories.Model Paint SolutionsYour source for Harder & Steenbeck Airbrushes and David Union Power ToolsSQUADRON Adding to the stash since 1968Model PodcastsPlease check out the other pods in the modelsphere!PMM Merchandise StoreSupport the show with PMM Merchandise!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Part 1 The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up by Marie Kondō Summary"The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up" by Marie Kondo presents a unique approach to decluttering and organizing living spaces. Kondo, a professional organizing consultant from Japan, introduces the KonMari Method, which emphasizes tidying by category rather than location and focuses on keeping only those items that “spark joy” in your life. Key Concepts:The Joy Check: At the core of Kondo's method is the idea that you should only keep items that bring you joy. This encourages individuals to create a more meaningful and joyful living environment.Tidying by Category: Kondo suggests decluttering by specific categories: clothes, books, papers, komono (miscellaneous items), and sentimental items. Each category should be tackled in this order to simplify the process and prevent overwhelm.The Right Mindset: Kondo stresses the importance of having the right mindset towards decluttering. This involves respecting your belongings and understanding why you want to tidy up to foster a sense of gratitude for the items in your life.The Importance of a `Tidying Up` Day: Instead of doing small tidying sessions over time, Kondo advocates for a one-time, thorough tidying event. This allows individuals to see a complete transformation in their space, therefore motivating them to maintain a tidy home.Organizing Things Properly: Once decluttering is complete, Kondo provides advice on how to organize what you choose to keep. This includes storing items in a manner that makes them easily accessible and visible, enhancing the efficiency and aesthetics of the space.Mental Clarity and Life Transformation: Kondo believes that tidying up does more than just clean your space; it can also lead to mental clarity and emotional well-being. The process often prompts individuals to reflect on their values and priorities in life. Conclusion:"The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up" offers not only practical tips for decluttering but also a philosophy that encourages readers to lead a more intentional and joyful life. The book emphasizes the connection between our physical space and emotional state, making it a significant resource for anyone looking to simplify and enhance their personal environment.Part 2 The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up AuthorMarie Kondo is a Japanese organizing consultant, author, and television show host, best known for her unique approach to decluttering and tidying up. Her most famous book, "The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing," was first published in Japan in 2011 and later translated into English and released in 2014. Kondo's method, known as the "KonMari" method, emphasizes the importance of keeping only those items that "spark joy" and following a specific order in which to declutter. Other Books Written by Marie KondoMarie Kondo has authored several other books, including:"Spark Joy: An Illustrated Master Class on the Art of Organizing and Tidying Up" (2016) A follow-up to her first book, providing further insights and detailed illustrations of her tidying methods."The Life-Changing Manga of Tidying Up: A Magical Story" (2013) A graphic novel format illustrating her tidying philosophy."Kiki & Jax: The Life-Changing Magic of Friendship" (2019) A children's book featuring two cute characters, Kiki and Jax, emphasizing friendship and tidying up in a kid-friendly manner."Joy at Work: Organizing Your Professional Life" (2020) Co-authored with Scott Sonenshein, this book applies the KonMari method to the workplace, aiming to help people find joy in their professional life."Marie Kondo's Kurashi at Home: How to Create a Life of Meaning and Joy" (2021) This book goes beyond tidying to explore how to create a fulfilling, joy-filled life at home.

Navigating PCS Chaos, Saving Money, and Finding Adventure! PCSing is a constant in military life, often bringing stress, extra costs, and confusion. But it doesn't have to be a nightmare! In this episode, we dive deep into practical tips and strategies to help you survive your next Permanent Change of Station (PCS), save money, and maybe even make it an adventure. We cover everything from getting your paperwork in order to leveraging financial benefits and preparing your family for the journey. In this episode, we discuss key strategies for managing your PCS: Getting Organized & Paperwork: The importance of physical binders and electronic backups for documents. Tips for outprocessing checklists and hand-carrying essential items like orders, Power of Attorneys, birth certificates, passports, and social security cards. Keep vital documents separate from movers. Financially Preparing: The crucial need to start saving cash early for unreimbursed expenses. Access to liquid money helps with stress management and avoiding debt. Cutting expenses is the first step to saving. Understanding Financial Benefits: Dislocation Allowance (DLA): An entitlement can be taken as an advance upfront (not a loan). Rates vary by pay grade and dependents (e.g., O-5 w/ dependents $5,339, E-4 w/ dependents $3,400 in 2025).  PCS Pay Advance: Option for up to one month's base pay, interest-free, paid back over 12 months. A tool for necessary situations, better than high-interest loans. Moving Your Stuff (HHG government move vs. PPM): Options include full government shipment (through TMO) or the Personally Procured Move (PPM). A partial PPM is recommended for conus moves to get paid for weight in your car. A full PPM offers significant profit potential by paying you the government's cost (examples mentioned: Jamie's $14,000 profit in 2023, and potential $10,000 profit in 2025). Challenge misinformation about PPM rules by referencing the JTR. Temporary Living Expenses (TLE) & Temporary Living Allowance (TLA): TLE (CONUS to CONUS, CONUS to OCONUS, or OCONUS to CONUS variants): Max $290/day, limited to 21 days, can be split between old and new PDS. Can be used for M&IE even when staying with family/friends. TLA (OCONUS): Up to 60 days upon arrival, 10 days upon departure. Covers lodging plus M&IE. Reference the JTR due to common misinformation. Prioritize minimizing stress over maximizing per diem. Preparing Your Family: Frame the move as an adventure. Acknowledge feelings (sadness, excitement) for everyone. Involve older kids in packing. Remember it's a team effort. Decluttering: Less stuff makes moving easier, especially with PPM. Reduces mental stress. Try methods like the hanger trick, Marie Kondo ("spark joy"), or the "poop test" for toys. Holding a garage sale can generate extra cash. Smart Travel & Leave: Explore circuitous travel or taking leave en route by getting it on your orders. PCS is a prime opportunity to take leave between assignments. Can take leave before departing or upon arrival. Understand BH timing. Inventory & Support: Video and photograph your belongings for inventory in case of loss or damage. You are not alone. Lean on your support network, friends, family, or sponsor for help.

Send us a textEver feel like you're juggling flaming torches while riding a unicycle? That's modern project management for you. In this episode of the Customer Success Playbook, Kevin Metzger and Roman Trebon welcome Elizabeth Harrin, the mastermind behind the award-winning Rebels Guide to Project Management. With over two decades of experience helping professionals navigate the chaos of multiple projects, Elizabeth reveals her battle-tested strategies for maintaining sanity when the pressure cooker of deadlines starts whistling.Detailed AnalysisThe conversation kicks off with Elizabeth dropping a truth bomb that resonates across industries: project management isn't just for project managers anymore. Whether you're in customer success, sales, or support, you're likely juggling multiple initiatives that directly impact client satisfaction. The beauty of Elizabeth's approach lies in its simplicity – she transforms overwhelming to-do lists into manageable "buckets of work."Her number one tip? Start with visibility. Most professionals treat their workload like an endless scroll of doom, but Elizabeth advocates for packaging work into digestible categories. Think of it as Marie Kondo-ing your project portfolio – group by client, deadline, or theme, then ruthlessly prioritize what truly sparks value.The discussion takes a practical turn when Elizabeth introduces her "top three goals" approach. By identifying three key objectives each evening for the next day, you create a roadmap that prevents the dreaded email rabbit hole. Roman Trebon enthusiastically validates this method, sharing his own success with a similar journaling practice – proof that even the busiest professionals can benefit from this deceptively simple strategy.What sets this episode apart is Elizabeth's emphasis on personalization. She acknowledges that traditional prioritization models (like the famous "eat the frog" approach) don't work for everyone, especially those with neurodivergence. The key is experimentation – test different systems, keep what works, and adjust what doesn't. This flexible mindset transforms project management from a rigid framework into a dynamic toolkit.The episode concludes with a compelling reminder: effective project management isn't about doing more; it's about doing what matters. In an era where burnout lurks around every deadline, Elizabeth's approach offers a refreshing perspective on sustainable productivity.Now you can interact with us directly by leaving a voice message at https://www.speakpipe.com/CustomerSuccessPlaybookPlease Like, Comment, Share and Subscribe.

Ep. 459: En este ‘Nadie Sabe Nada', Andreu Buenafuente y Berto Romero debaten sobre si las personas feas son ingeniosas y las guapas lo son menos porque no lo necesitan. Pero nosotros rompemos esta dicotomía porque nos ha quedado un ‘Nadie' guapo e ingenioso, por lo menos. Guapo e ingenioso porque hemos salvado los problemas técnicos iniciales con ingenio, hemos hablado de gatos y eso siempre es bonito, hemos intentado descubrir qué es la espuma en cocina y hemos entendido qué es la sublimación con inteligencia y hemos tocado temas atractivos como el orden (recordando a Marie Kondo), el público en los conciertos, el sake como bebida, la morcilla o el gimnasio.
