Hey there! Marie Kondo first shot to fame after publishing a bestselling guide to minimalist living, The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up. Her signature "KonMari" method of organizing has since gained a huge following, inspired product lines, and even become the focus of a popular new Netflix show.
