The internationally beloved author and organiser returns to How To Academy to share new ideas for living wisely and well, drawn from the ancient traditions of Japanese culture.

Marie Kondo’s unique approach to organising our lives and our homes has transformed the relationship we have with the objects around us, helping us all to seek out the joy in our daily lives.

In the eleven years since The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up made her famous across the globe, journalists, readers and fans have asked her one question more than any other: what role did Japanese philosophy and culture play in shaping her life and thought?

Now Marie returns to How To Academy to share her principles for living, and reveal how the traditions of her homeland can help all of us to spark joy. She will share personal insights into her upbringing, family, career and experiences with Shintoism, and explore how Japanese people often combine an ultramodern lifestyle with deep respect for ancient customs and traditions.

Don’t miss this rare opportunity to hear from one of the most authentic, influential, and widely renowned communicator and lifestyle expert working today as she illuminates how Japanese ways of thinking can help spark joy all over the world.
