"Dana K. White has described what no other organizing-focused author has done for me. The how-to of getting any house under control is explained in such detail and with clarity that makes the reader (me) feel like they can tackle a project and successfully maintain order." - Jane A.

"...The tagline should read something like "The Best of Dana, in a concise, digestible, organized format," but "100 Realistic Strategies to Keep Any House Under Control" works also." - Gina W.

"If you've tried other organizing methods with little success, or if you are tired of piles of things to work through in long, marathon sessions, or if nothing has worked before to get the chaos in your house under control (and all you have to show for it is a bunch of crammed-full storage boxes crazily stacked in the corner of wherever), then this is the book for you." - Suzette D.

"Even if you have your home "under control" and find it easy to declutter and organize I can guarantee you that reading this book and learning from Dana will give you new insights for yourself." - Gina W.

"The simple instructions and solutions for achieving and maintaining a manageable home are explained in "bite sized" chapters that inspire you to implement the strategies explained without feeling overwhelmed. Dana K. White gently explains how to shift your thinking while acknowledging the emotional aspect of managing your stuff and home." - Jennifer G.

"I’ve read a TON of cleaning and organizational books since I became a wife and mother. I kept hoping that some book would have the magic sauce that would allow me to spend minimal time on cleaning my house...So, when I say that I found THE book for me that helped me approach my house in a completely different way, I know of which I speak." - Amazon review

"I. Love. This. Book. It was easy and quick to read and kept my attention throughout the book. That is important to me as I can be easily distracted. The hard thing about sticking to reading this book is that it will make you want to get up and go declutter!" - D. Linn

"As someone who has struggled with clutter for years, and read lots of books on the subject, this is something different. A practical, entertaining and honest guide to decluttering." - N. C. Tayler

"I have purchased so many decluttering books over the past few years trying to sort out my home once and for all, but not one of them spoke to me like this book! The author could be speaking to me as if she knew me! It’s very easy to dip into kind of book and is written in a sensible truthful and humorous down-to-earth manner. I recommend this practical book 100%." - Fleur

Are you completely overwhelmed in your home? Have you tried again and again (and again) to understand why keeping it under control is so ridiculously hard for you? So you watch your friends and wonder how in the world they're NOT stressed out and confused like you are?

I understand. That's exactly where I was in 2009. I had tried and tried, but no matter how what I did, any progress I made felt like I was holding onto the edge of a cliff, desperately trying to keep from falling back into the mess.

But I always fell.

I mention 2009 because in August of that year, I set out on what I now call my deslobification journey. After ridiculous amounts of trial and error, I have figured out what was always a mystery to me. I have figured out how to manage my home without losing my mind.

If you feel like traditional cleaning and organizing advice is written in a language you never learned, you're exactly the person for whom I wrote this book. I didn't understand, either.

This is the book I desperately needed. In it, I teach you the reality-based decluttering strategies and hard-learned lessons I've learned through my own deslobification process. They're here, in one place, as the guide you need to get control of your home.

Pick it up at your favorite bookstore, or order your copy online. I encourage you to check out the reviews!

"I can't sing the praises of this book enough! I am neat by nature but felt my house getting a little harder to manage with each baby (and all. the. stuff.). I love how this book breaks things down into manageable REALISTIC tasks. I was only a few chapters in when my husband could already tell a difference in our home." -Kandi C.
