When she was just nineteen and studying at university, she started her own tidying consultancy business. Through The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up and a hit Netflix show, she has become a household name and an inspiration to millions around the world who look to her not just for advice on decluttering, but also for her wisdom in choosing what to hold onto, and what to let go. Marie lives with her husband and three children.
