en route to joy
Declutter your life, Marie Kondo style.
About
tHE story BEHIND
Bonjour ! I'm Marine, the French home organiser who made London her home 15 years ago. As an accredited KonMari® consultant, I will teach you the six rules of Marie Kondo's world-renowned tidying method, and more importantly show you how to implement these guidelines - at home - to create maximum impact.
My clients often feel overwhelmed usually due to external reasons such as work, family or health circumstances and so I’ve created En route to Joy to walk them through a tried and tested process of decluttering that puts them back in control of their lives, helps them manage their budget and cuts down on waste. The perfect sustainability trio!
Take care of your home - take care of yourself - take care of our planet.
Just as a personal trainer helps you reach your fitness goals, I’m here to help you change your mindset so that you can achieve your objectives at home. Having an accountability partner increases your chance of success and importantly helps you implement a system that makes sense to you and fits your unique path and experiences.
We can either focus on a specific category of items - clothes or paperwork for example - or go through a full tidying festival where we sort through all of your belongings to help you start afresh.
I strongly believe that your surroundings have a significant impact on your well-being. Let's work together to get rid of time-wasting activities once and for all and instead make space for the things that bring you joy!
Declutter your life, Marie Kondo style.
You've tried decluttering 100 times and still...
You don't have to do it alone
Your options
I help you declutter and organise your home. To begin, simply book a free 30-minute discovery call to discuss how we can work together.
The journey is yours, so it will be shorter or longer depending on your availability, the time you can devote between sessions, and how quickly you can make decisions about your home and belongings. It is easier to go through the process in person - at home - if you're based in London or not too far. Virtual sessions are also possible if you prefer, or even a mix of both. Discover the options below: you can choose between an intro session or a set package, and of course, book more sessions along the way, if needed. If you're ready to make the change on your own, check my self-support tools further down.
Intro Session
Who is this for?
If you're not quite sure where to start, the intro session is for you. Choose between three and five hours, and you can always select a package at a later stage. What works for you works for me!
What do you get?
We will go through a home tour, an intro to the method and guidance for one of the five categories.
Intro of three hours - £150
Intro of five hours - £225
Cleansing
Who is this for?
The Cleansing package is for you if you're on a limited budget and quite independent.
This involves homework! And being able to self-motivate to work independently in between our sessions.
What do you get?
I will take you on a discovery tour of the method: each session will target one category so that you can go through the rest of the 'doing' on your own.
You will get five sessions (one per category) of three hours each and your copy of the En route to Joy checklist.
15 hours = £600
Detox
Who is this for?
The Detox package is perfect if you need more guidance to understand and implement the method. It's much easier to have an accountability partner and ready for the next session!
What do you get?
You will get support to go through each of the categories, a total of ten sessions of three hours each, and your copy of the En route to Joy checklist.
30 hours = £1140
Mindset
Who is this for?
The Mindset package is your ultimate commitment to a changed mindset.
You are investing in yourself and your lifestyle.
What do you get?
I will take you through the method and each of the five categories. We will go through the joy check principle, and I will motivate you through the 'doing' to complete your full transformation. You will get ten sessions of five hours each (we can take a break!) and your copy of the En route to Joy checklist.
50 hours = £1800

Jo - N3 LondonI have been working decluttering my home with Marine since attending her session at Maggies cancer centre. It has been a fantastic experience and I wish I had done it years ago. My house is transformed and my rooms are now so user friendly and clean and tidy. I recommend her 100%. My house looks totally different but more importantly feels different. My rooms are so well organised and keeping them clean and tidy is so easy.
Marine has so many tips and methods with organising that I would never have thought of. My daughter is now decluttering with Marine.
-
Vicki - SE6 LondonIt was such a pleasure working with Marine to tackle the clutter that had accumulated after moving house. She really helped me to get ‘unstuck’ and clear out paperwork that had been piling up for far too long! I can highly recommend Marine’s services, whether a one-off session to get you in the right frame of mind, or an ongoing service to help make your home the place of retreat that you dream of!

Rachel Gnagniko - LiverpoolThis reorganisation was part of my self-care journey, and the results have been nothing short of amazing. I feel less stressed, physically healthier, and our communication at home has improved significantly. Marine made the whole process enjoyable and even fun. She is incredibly patient, flexible, and open, and her advice is spot-on.
Marine's support throughout the process was invaluable. She made the transition to a more organised space feel easy and delightful. She listens carefully and offers practical, achievable solutions. The impact of her work is truly transformative, helping me understand how our living space can reflect and enhance our overall well-being. It's not just about tidying up or organising; it's about creating a space that affirms and enriches our life.
I can't recommend her services enough to anyone looking to bring more joy and order into their home. Marine is a true gem, and working with her has been a delightful experience. -
Martina - SE18 LondonI had the pleasure to receive Marine’s help. Her great wisdom and practicality helped me to start an important decluttering process after several house moves and years of accumulation.
She helps you to get through your stuff in a systematic way, guiding you through a specific mental and emotional process, so that you can apply the system to every area of your life and for the rest of your life.She’s extremely professional, but most of all she’s a great human being.
If you need to sort out your life, begin from Marine! She won’t disappoint you! -
Kaydi-Ann - SE13 LondonI had fallen out of love with my living space and struggled to keep order after a long term injury. My house and my life was transformed! Marine was incredibly understanding of my circumstances and patient with me as I had a weird schedule working around and struggled with sentimental items and my kitchen space, especially. I not only used the method to tidy my space but to make decisions for my daily life.
-
Patricia - FranceBig thanks to Marine for holding my hand through the process, it's a huge effort and I couldn't have done it on my own.
Now I feel better with myself and am happy when at home!
-
Cate - SE13 LondonMarine did a fantastic job of helping me organise my clothes, something I’d been meaning to do for years but never managed to achieve by myself.
Thank you Marine!

The KonMari® method
Will it work this time?
Have you tried to organise your home multiple times, only to find that the clutter keeps returning?
Fear not, as Marie Kondo has developed a unique approach that actually works! Say goodbye to tidying room by room, and starting over again and again. Instead, we will focus on what brings you joy, and choose which items to keep, following five specific categories in a particular order:
- Clothes
- Books
- Paperwork
- Komono (miscellaneous)
- Sentimental items.
This will help us create a personalised system for you to maintain in the long term.
We will follow the six fundamental rules of tidying. For more information about the KonMari® method, check out this link.

Take care of others
Group session
I believe in our responsibility to contribute to making the world a better place. On a monthly basis, I deliver introductions to decluttering at Maggie's Royal Free, a charity providing free cancer support and information. Giving back to the community is one of the most rewarding experiences and is an act of generosity that creates a ripple effect of kindness and compassion.
If you or someone you know would like to attend, I would be more than happy to provide more information.
