Comment of the Week


Chamaine writes, "I started using the Fly Lady for a cleaning system and it has been a tremendous game changer for establishing cleaning routines that will not burn you out...and I work full-time time, love serving my husband (who serves our family as well) and have 3 children. I also follow Minimal Mom which has helped with decluttering because you can't clean until you declutter first. Between Jennifer L. Scott, Marie Kondo, Dawn from Minimal Mom and Marla the Fly Lady, after 4 months I have escaped crippling depression and my family has also become stable and dare I say happy. We all work together and find joy in keeping the house tidy, clean and relational. Jennifer, you were the first to start me on this journey starting with Be Presentable Always and intro to capsule wardrobes. Thank you. Your videos have been life support when I was so overwhelmed and felt so powerless. In my journey I have been lead to the other ladies. Btw, shout out to Ariel, The Akward Mom who introduced me to the Fly Lady and made the system easy to understand. All the principles amongst these influencers blend together well. I hope my post blessed others as I have been blessed. Peace and Blessings, All ways."

Dear Chamaine, It's an honor to be mentioned in such good company. I'm so glad you are inspired by the videos!
