And at what point, how old were you when you realized you would be the tiniest,

not tiniest- >> [LAUGH]

>> Yes.

>> [LAUGH] >> She's tiny.

>> [APPLAUSE]

>> You're not the tiniest woman in the world.

>> Yeah.

>> There are other people that are tinier.

>> Yeah.

>> [LAUGH] >> [FOREIGN]

>> When did you realize.

[LAUGH] >> [LAUGH] [APPLAUSE]

>> [FOREIGN]

>> Yeah, I know, that's what I said.

>> [LAUGH] >> So the tidiest woman in the world.

What age were you when you realized you'd do this?

>> [FOREIGN] >> Mm.

>> [LAUGH] >> I started working as a tidying and

organizing consultant when I was 19 years old.

>> Okay, and people wait months and months for you to go to their house and

help them, right?

>> [FOREIGN] >> The longest was six months wait list.

>> Wow!

There's a lot of messy people out there?

>> [LAUGH] >> Yeah.

>> [FOREIGN] >> So

Spark Joy is the name of your new book.

And what is Spark Joy?

>> [FOREIGN] >> One

of the important things of my method is to only keep thing that spark joy for you.

So I'm going to demo it, how it works.

>> Okay. >> [FOREIGN]

>> So when you touch thing that sparks joy

for you, this is what's going to happen.

>> [SOUND] >> Your body perks up a little bit like

this.

>> Spark joy!

>> This is spark joy.

>> That's one of my t-shirts, I'm glad it's sparking joy.

>> [LAUGH] >> All right.

>> [FOREIGN] >> On the other hand, when you find

something that doesn't spark joy for you- >> [SOUND]

>> You feel all heavy like your

body is falling.

>> That's my skirt.

>> [LAUGH] >> [LAUGH] Sorry.

>> That's okay.

>> [FOREIGN] >> All right, so you really feel,

you can feel if you touch something, that you wanna keep it or not keep it.

>> [FOREIGN] >> So,

when you touch something, you'll know what I'm talking about.

Cuz your body will respond to it.

>> [LAUGH] >> Spark joy?

>> Yes.

>> Does it spark joy for you?

>> Yes, this is actually Augie.

>> Aw.

>> That's my dog, Augie.

>> [FOREIGN] >> [LAUGH]

>> Okay, so how do we fold, I mean,

I know how I'd fold.

You want me to show you how I fold?

>> [FOREIGN]

>> [FOREIGN] >> I do this, that, and this,

is that okay? >> [FOREIGN]

>> No.

>> [LAUGH]

>> That's good for anybody else.

>> [LAUGH]

>> [FOREIGN]

>> So before anything else, make sure you

put [INAUDIBLE] love through your palms. >> Love

[INAUDIBLE] palms.

>> Ooh.

>> [LAUGH] >> Aah!

Okay, perfect.

>> [LAUGH] [APPLAUSE]

>> [SOUND].

This seems to take much longer.

>> Yes.

>> Okay.

>> But love slows things down a little

bit. >> That's right, That's right.

>> [LAUGH]

>> [FOREIGN]

>> She's trying to compress it.

>> very good.

>> That's good.

>> [LAUGH]

>> How-

>> [FOREIGN]

>> What's your question?

>> How is that different from what Ellen

did? >> [FOREIGN]

>> She's not done.

>> [FOREIGN] >> Is she cursing at me?

>> [LAUGH] >> So when you fold clothes,

you fold both sides towards the center, and then fold it in half.

And then from there, you fold it in thirds, like this.

>> Okay, and then you keep it this way, not stacked, right?

>> [FOREIGN] >> [FOREIGN]

>> So once you're done folding,

it should stand up on its own, like this.

>> It should stand up on its own?

>> Uh-huh, yes.

>> [LAUGH] >> [FOREIGN]

>> And then you store them

upright like this.

>> I see, okay, so Andy wants us to, how do we do socks?

Cuz, whoa, those are tiny.

>> [FOREIGN] >> [LAUGH]

>> She said, you just fold them in

half, like this.

>> Everything has to stand up?

>> And it should stand on its own, yep.

>> Well, I think the bigger problem is if you have even socks.

>> [LAUGH] >> Yeah, no, okay, so.

>> [LAUGH] >> It's wonderful.
