Returning To Your Back To One Organized Space with Nicole Gabai


Listen Later

In this video, host Angela Brown talks with professional organizer Nicole Gabai about her concept of "Back to One" for keeping a tidy home. Back to One refers to the practice of resetting each room in your house to its ideal organized state at the end of every day. The goal is that by dedicating just 15 minutes per room per day to tidy and declutter, you can maintain an orderly living space with minimal effort.

Back to One works by establishing what your ideal vision is for each room when it's clean and clutter-free. This looks different for every home and family. For a kid's bedroom, it may mean toys put away, bed made, and surfaces cleared. For a home office, it could be a cleared desk, files sorted, and wastebasket emptied. Nicole Gabai emphasizes that Back to One is unique for each space.

Embark on a journey to transform your home by implementing daily Back-to-One tasks, so you can enjoy an organized space without too much effort.
