Such a great book!

I have been following Dana's blog (and particularly podcasts) for a few years, and I listen while I try to clean... this made the book an essential buy for me. Dana is just like me, and is hilarious, and makes me feel like I'm not alone. This stuff doesn't come naturally to everyone. I finally have hope though - and I am seeing little successes. I'd highly recommend this book to anyone who feels overwhelmed by their home. I'm starting to actually enjoy mine, now that it is becoming more manageable through simple tasks like doing the dishes. Looking forward to the next book :)

Must Read for Would-Be Homemakers

Awesome! This is the BEST information on keeping a home that I've ever read! It is pratical, informative, relatable, and funny all at the same time. I finally feel like I have a roadmap for daily success at home and I have already seen results. I am truly glad to have found a kindred spirit who decided to share her experience and strategies for success. Two thumbs up!!

Aweseome! practical habit training everyday tips

Would you consider the audio edition of How to Manage Your Home Without Losing Your Mind to be better than the print version?

Did not get the print version

What was one of the most memorable moments of How to Manage Your Home Without Losing Your Mind?

DO THE DISHES EVERYDAY!! A habit that changed our household. Seriously I have read so many organization books but Dana made me make changes. She is an amazing narrator ( so glad she did herself) and her habit forming tips truly work. Fellow Slob who has two little kids, full time job and handling home chores as well.

Any additional comments?

JUST BUY THE BOOK AND START LISTENING!!

Exelent! perfect for people with ADHD

I am a tired mom with ADHD, and I have read and tried A LOT of different methods of organizing, arranging and maintaining the house in a livable state. This book is, without a doubt, is the best book I have read on the subject.
I don't know if it is on purpose, but this book is perfect for people with ADHD, everything works out just right, its very simple and easy to understand, and actualy worked for me! Dana is funny and witty and makes it light and fun, and I hate everything related to housekeeping ...In short, a great book! A must for anyone who has tried a million complex methods and failed, highly recommend it!

Realistic Approach for Human Disasters

Reading this book felt like Dana was speaking directly to my brain. How to actually start, how to avoid procrastinating, how to create routines of doing chores you hate. I struggle with depression, and this book really helped me bring my home under control when even moving clothes to the dryer feels overwhelming.

Life changing!

A great summary of all of the podcasts. I really enjoyed listening and cleaning along! Dana has changed the way I keep my house and live my life! So grateful for these books, and the podcasts.

Dana K. White brings me joy

No disrespect for Marie Kondo, but I just can’t relate to her cleaning process. I do, however, relate strongly to Dana K. White’s deslobification suggestions, especially her focus on working within your “containers.” If you are reluctant to thank your old underwear for their service before tossing them, give Dana’s books a try.

A Clutter Clearing Guide that is doable

If you’re a person who has struggled with clearing the clutter from your home this book is for you! I’ve tried so many things to “get organized” and never seem to be able to keep them going. Dana shares her journey and her methods are absolutely doable and make such common sense that I’ve been able to make visible progress in my home!

JUST what I needed!

Dana's personality and common sense approach made this a truly enjoyable listen. Not only did her own experiences and circumstances hit home, her conversationalist method motivated and inspired. HIGHLY recommend for anyone needing a place to start and HOPE.

Thank you

Not sure exactly what I was looking for, but this was definitely it. I’m hoping that it will help our family.....forever.

Thank you!
