My name is Aidan Gately.
I’m Ireland’s first male
KonMari Consultant & the first declutter expert on RTÉ’s popular television series Home Rescue.
I have always felt that an untidy living space leads to a cluttered mind, or perhaps it’s the other way around?
I’ve always been relatively tidy & enjoy living in an uncluttered space but sometimes especially if I’m extra busy or ‘burning the candle at both ends’ I find that I end up surrounded by mess & clutter & I feel this really affects my mental health.
Once I had completed what Marie Kondo calls the Tidying Festival, my mind was at ease & I felt happier at home.
“The person you are supposed to be
only shows up after tidying.”
