Marie Kondo, the decluttering expert famed for helping people clean up their living spaces, has admitted that there is an “impossible standard” of maintaining a tidy home.
Kondo, 40, who is from Osaka, Japan, rose to fame through her 2010 best-selling book, The Life-Changing Magic Of Tidying Up and on the hit 2019 Netflix series Tidying Up with Marie Kondo, in which she coached people to organise their homes using her unique tidying technique, the KonMari Method.
