- Professional Organizer Cassandra Aarssen describes the four types of organizing styles she's encountered in her career:
The Four Organizing Styles:
Bee: Crave visual organization with lots of detailed micro categories
Ladybug: Prefer hidden storage with fast and simple macro categories
Butterfly: Crave visual organization with fast and simple macro categories
Cricket: Prefer hidden storage with lots of detailed micro categories
Cassandra Aarssen (@clutterbug_me) is the creator of Clutterbug™, a home organizing business which provides education, inspiration and support to over 500,000 families worldwide through her UA-cam channel, podcast and various other social media platforms. Cassandra is also the author three best selling organizing books, “Real Life Organizing”, “Cluttered Mess to Organized Success” and “The Clutter Connection". As a recovering “super slob”, Cassandra has discovered through her own journey with clutter, that organization is not one-size-fits-all. She has identified four unique organizing styles and developed the Clutterbug Method™ to help individuals discover their style and implement customized solutions that will finally get them organized long term.
Cassandra has been featured on The OWN Network, CTV, NBC, CBC, The Huffington Post, The Marilyn Denis Show, Popular Science, Women’s World Magazine and has been interviewed by countless other news organizations and podcasts. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

THATS MY MOMMMMMMM
Your mom is awesome!
Awsm mom😃
Abby Awesome your Mom Rocks!
Your Mom saved me from depression & guilt because I thought something was seriously wrong with me because my clutter and hoarding stuff (that I never could find back after I bought it) was out of control & overwhelming. Now I understand that I am a Butterfly and need to see in Macro NOT in traditional systems! I am so grateful. Your Mom is worthy of great respect for all she has overcome. ❤️
I love your moms clutterbug
Channel!!!!! She’s an amazing lady!!!! Thanks for sharing her with us❤️. Great video on Ted Talks too:) I am a visual organizer, this makes total sense!!! Now off to clean the piles off my desk😂📘📚🤷🏻♀️
She did a huge thing. She took a weakness, made it a strength, helped others and built a huge business.
Bees - visual micro
Ladybug - hidden macro
Butterfly - visual macro
Cricket - hidden micro
Very powerful that she states it is not a personal failure but a systematic failure. There are always different styles and this is probably the best I could've heard.
Yes!!! Clicked on this TEDx talk because the title talks about declutter and WHO DO I SEE!!! One of my favorite UA-camrs. She's amazing and motivational and most of all very funny. I feel so proud of her and I'm not even related to her.
I've had this on my watch later list for a long time, and I stumbled into clutter bug from minimal mom (that I found from a to zen) ... So I'm just a recent follower....... ANYWAY.... I didn't even realize THIS was the same Cas as Clutter bug, she's lost SOOOO much weight! She's such an inspiration!
When I heard her describe a "bee" I'm like, she sees into my SOUL!!
After watching this TED talk I am watching this young lady on youtube and making great strides in decluttering
You will love her. I'm a lady bug 🧡
Cas is great!!
@@manderson4803 I'm a bee. And I love her, too.😊
Bee-tterfly here! Am new to Cass (only discovered last week) and while I've not yet got my system 100% nailed down (I truly am stuck between the two! Surely there are other mutant/hybrids out here, maybe she'll address it someday 🙂 ) but I am nonetheless HOPEFUL for the first time in a very very long time. Once you've failed over and over and finally resigned yourself to just being *broken* in this arena, it's so hard to get past the self-inflicted disgust and battery and loathing. Not only does her methodology and teachings make sense and help *so* immensely but also just her obv compassion, having lived it herself, helps SO, so much. She's not only given me tools, she's made me *want* to care for and help myself again. ❤💗💝
She has talked about it in her podcasts.
@@SIC647 That's good to know! I've not yet delved into them but will def do so now 👍🏻
I cried all the way through this. This is sooo me.
Cas has such a good speaking voice, she is a wonderful orator! She is so relatable and such a fun personality!
OMGoodness, Cass, Thank you! This is a life changing message. This came up randomly in my feed. As I sit at my piled-high kitchen table and consider the few places that there is some order in my house, you made it clear that I am a visual micro-organizer. So maybe I am not such a lazy, dismal failure. Every weekend my Saturday task is to clean up a room, and it has been something approached with dread and procrastination because I’ve put in so much work and not been successful or was unable to maintain. I am in my 50’s so that is a long history of failure. I even lead a double life of sorts because our almost-horde/cluttered home is a shameful secret that keeps us from ever having anyone to the house. Thank you for sharing your wonderful insight!
Cas ClutterBug bug system is a GAME Changer
Cas, I love watching you how-to videos here on UA-cam!! Thanks for your channel ‘Clutterbug’!! 🦋
I just happened upon this video, I have been following Cass and Lady Bug for a long time. This presentation is excellent. I raised three daughters, each of them had a different organizing style. And yes, I did have one who shoved everything under the bed, she is grown up now, still has the same style. This talk, has helped me understand her a little better. Thank you, Cass.
I see Clutterbug and I click. I'm a simple human being with children, struggling with decluttering and organizing.
What a great pep talk!! 😍❤😍🎉🎉🎉
Cas!!! Great job! So natural and relaxed. Too bad the audience didn't know they missed out on story time. 😉
My favorite part!😀
Huh? We missed what?
@@catherinecastle830 on her channel Clutterbug, she has a funny personal story at the end of each video.
My favorite! I loved it! 😜
Yeah, the video also skipped over one of the styles. Looks like a...grasshopper?
I love you! I found the fly lady to help me with a cleaning schedule and you to help me with organization. My life is literally changed.
Thanks @tabithadavis I was thinking I had to chose between the 2 systems.
@@robinlewis3958 I find the flylady cleaning system works much better for me as it goes into deep cleaning as well as generally keeping the house tidy but doesnt make it a huge chore.
Tabitha Davis I love ❤️ flylady system😃
Robin Lewis I love them both. Cassandra shows you options for “your” way to organize your items. FlyLady, shows you how to declutter and clean efficiently. Match made in heaven! 😊
Same here! So glad to read I'm not alone in combining the two systems!
I love Cassandra! She is real, she has helped me get my own home and life organized. She is very interesting and a great storyteller! She is relatable and truly inspiring in a way that makes everyone feel included. Her knowledge and work that she so brilliantly shares is a gift to us all. Thank you Cassandra. PS buy her books! I own them all!
She has one of my favorite UA-cam channels.
Me to. I love her.
I could listen to Cassandra for days! She is human and real. She makes me feel better about myself, because I too bought every organizing book and tried all the organizing systems. She changed my life and I will always be grateful. Love you, Cass! ❤❤❤
Oh my goodness, I am such a BEE! My alphabetically organized Spice rack gives me SO MUCH JOY! And I use it almost every day, it sits on my counter diligent and faithful; ever ready to assist in my culinary forays!
So exciting!!! I’ve been watching Cassandra since I was 11 (I’m 17 now). She has inspired me to keep my life in order time and time again! What an amazing and inspirational woman! Loved the talk!
Wow 11
HOW DID CASS DO A TED TALK AND I JUST NOW AM FINDING OUT?!?
Margaret Gardner I couldn’t believe it too, great speaker
I know right?? I just found out now too!
Me too!
Cass is such an incredible, caring person. Great at what she does too.
Cas, you really are the best organizational specialist!!!!! You’ve inspired and motivated me so much-and your funny and enjoyable to watch/listen to. 💗💗💗
She knows what she talking about. She has helped me and many, many more but in a way that works each of us. Great job Cass!!
Cass you were wonderful!! Listening to you made me tear up all over again when you asked if people were labeling their children as messy. Thank you for sharing so much of yourself!!!💜
Beautiful amazing talk. Thank you, bless you. All your dreams come true.
Cassandra, I’ve been following you on UA-cam for years and I’m so happy for and proud that you could go so far that now the whole world knows about you! You are something else! You are a brilliant! 💎
I've heard the story about the lawyer more than a few times (being a fan of Cas) and I don't tire of it. Her videos were such a huge help to me in my house! I love her style and what she's figured out. And I'm a ladybug.
I am half ladybug and half butterfly
Butterfly here!😊
Cassie!!!! This was a surprise and just popped up in my feeds!!! Loved it, you should have told us about this...
Same! It popped up in my feed today! You did great!
Me too! 👍👍
Same. Saw her on stage in the thumbnail! Watching now!
She said it, but I searched for it like crazy and today it just appeared on my suggestions.
Jackie Crafts super shocked, going to watch Cass now, never knew anything about this, this girl is full of surprises 😊 xxx
Where’s my crickets at? This has helped me so much be aware of how my family approaches organizing. Love clutterbug channel so much and Cas and her awesome humor.
Clutter Bug! Ahhh....
I know! That’s me too! She forgot that one. I was surfing UA-cam and found this and realized it was her. She is amazing. She did a great job.
Here I am lol!! I was waiting for her to touch on it lol
Something I needed to hear for such a long long time. I have been blaming myself and sleeping with a heavy mind and saddened heart that nothing is going to change. Now I know where to start aleast.
Wow! This talk has changed my perception of my myself! I can stop beating myself up and get my stuff together... just differently.... THANK YOU ☺️
AHHH CASS! I might be crying. Been following for awhile, so this makes me so stinkin proud of you. ❤
I love Cas with all my heart.
It is so freaking inspiring that she has taken something that was a constant source of stress for her and turned it into something to help others.
Thank you, you lovely lady 🥰
Yay CAS!!!! I was scrolling through my UA-cam feed and found this TED talk and said “I know her”🤗
Cass I found your show on HGTV and now am hooked. For years I beat myself up feeling something was wrong with me but knew I was organized. Now I know I am a BEE. I can't wait to try your tips.
Omg ! I love her channel ! I had no idea she did a Ted Talk ! ❤️ Amazing
Thanks for mentioning she has a channel☺
Same!
Me, too! And I think this explanation of her journey finally clicked something in my brain.
Me neither
OMG, same.
Love her! I call her the “Dollar Tree MacGyver.” It’s amazing what she creates with Dollar Tree items.
She is wonderful
@Saga Fox-Wilde So does Kathryn on Do It On a Dime! Shes a Dollar Tree goddess!
Cas has changed my life in that I thought I was hopeless, but just by making the small changes she recommends (on her UA-cam channel, website, and books) my house has transformed. I now love my house and no longer freak out when people are coming over. Thank you Cas! Great Tedx Talk!
Finally realized why declutter advice about organizing everything in neat little labeled boxes wasn't helping me at all - I'm a visual organizer. Thank you so much, it's a great way to start a new year.
This really works! Nearly all organising systems are designed by micro-organisers. Cass's bins and baskets worked perfectly for me and my husband. Our house looks good and is so easy to keep neat.
Turning a relationship compromise into a business and philosophy. Nice job. I'm impressed.
Beautifully done
You kept your tone & pace. I am sooo proud of you
Thank you for allowing us to be apart of your journey.
I absolutely love this.
I used clothes baskets on the side of my younger son’s bed instead of a dresser because the drawers were never neat.
It saved time and energy.
Thanks for sharing!
7:58 "putting away was the issue"
These words give me so much clarification about my situation.. Thanks 👍
I love you Cass,just love your style,frank and real down to earth attitude!
I've been a huge fan of Cass for years. She really changed the way I organize my own home and life.
Cass!!! I just clicked on this because it sounded interesting.... little did I know it was our favorite Clutterbug Queen! We love you Cass!
If you like thought-provoking content that highlights minimalism, mindfulness, and dopamine addiction, you might enjoy my channel. I would appreciate your feedback 🌿
I keep playing this over and over and over again because its wonderful listening to you explain it.
My assumption of you is THANK YOU for sharing this to help the rest of us
Thank you for doing this talk! I only just watched it and already feel as though my life makes SO much more sense. I am definitely a Bee and have been struggling with depression and anxiety over the conflict between my overachieving nature and my 'messy' ways. Just two days ago I stood in front of my wardrobe with two full clothes baskets of laundry to be hung there and after ten minutes of walking back and forth and putting items on hangers - but not away - I felt like an insane person for achieving exactly nothing. I empathise with the lawyer in your story so. much.
Planning my new way of organisation starting today!
Being a bee is hard!
Omg this is totally me, the visual organizer. I’m not kidding. Once something is in a drawer or closet I completely forget about it! I need this because I have a phobia about putting anything away!!! Omg this is brilliant!
Cass you did great! I know you forgot about the crickets, but this video should make more people go find you on UA-cam and see ALL YOUR OTHER VIDEOS! ❣🎉😘
Oh my gosh, Cass! What an awesome talk! I'm so impressed - I could never talk so confidently in front of so many people!
You're amazeballs!!!
I LOVE THIS!!! And I LOVE her channel, I had NO IDEA that she gave a Ted Talk!!!!! 😍
Wow! This is the best thing I clicked on all day. Thank you, TEDx Talks and Cassandra for sharing this. I have a new understanding of how I organize and that the clutter I have around me doesn't mean I'm doing something wrong or that something is wrong with me. I just need a different method.
Love Cass she is so down to earth and I am so glad she got to do this!
She is amazing everyone totally needs to follow her UA-cam videos
I'm a butterfly! You just gave me THE key - I've been trying to keep myself organized for the last 40 years without success..... 👻
Wow this reminded me of Church when you're listening to the message as it appears the pastor's talking directly to you and your heart!
What's an amazing journey! My days of organized chaos are over thanks to you! Your book and your channel!
Sending warm wishes from across the bridge in Michigan! 💖💖💖💖💖
Oh my macro organizer!! This was WONDERFUL, Cas! Way to go!!!
Her youtube channel is amazing.
This is beautiful! I have adhd so I totallyyyyyyy feel this
This is my first time ever commenting and it’s because she is me her UA-cam channel clutterbug and podcasts have changed me forever. So this comment is a thank you note to her.
Oh Clutter bug. You've had a break through that is unique. I love watching you.
I think the key is decluttering. Less stuff, less stress
Яна лукасова YES!!!
Good for you. Your key doesn’t fit everyone’s lock.
She emphasizes decluttering in her normal Clutterbug videos.
If that's what works for you, then go for it! 👍 Just remember, different strokes for different folks. No two people are the same, so what works for me might not work for you, and what works for you definitely doesn't work for me. 🙂 Empty spaces Cause me stress. 🤷♀️ Less stuff means I don't have the "something" I need to do the "whatever", and if I need it once, I'll probably need it again in the future. Dat's how My brain works. To me minimalists are boring people. They don't have a creative bone in their bodies. A painter can make a painting with one tube of paint, but it becomes a masterpiece when you give them a Full palette. 🤔 Have a nice day! 🙂
@@projectkj7643 - Right!
Cas has definitely helped me make great changes in my home! I have all of her books and have watched her on you tube for years! She has a great sense of humor and really puts her brewers at ease. I always leave her videos with a smile- if you don’t know what I mean then watch her and stay to the end of the video😉👍🏼. I was so thrilled that she was doing a TED talk! Blessings to you Cas!💕
Totally agree!!! She has helped me so much
Such a simple concept, but so much ignored! I bought one of her books a while and it truly changed the way I organized.
Somehow I missed this last month, but it came up in my feed. You were great up there Cass! I'm still such a 🦋😍🦋😍🦋
I have been saving this to watch when I had time to concentrate. You did AMAZEBALLS! So proud of you. You were inspiring, informative, and funny! Bravo!!!!
Come on Clutter Bug!!! Is this the project you were working on?
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
My god that was helpful. I had succeeded at the open storage system but didn’t understand why that system worked for me until you explained it here! Many 🙏. 🥰🤗
File cabinets - ugh! I soooo over categorized that i couldn't find it again!
Me thinks It's the perfectionism that gets in the way ...
Thanks for sharing!
Cass, you TOTALLY rocked this TED talk!!!!! Huzzah for you!!!!!! We love our Clutterbug!!!
I just started reading your book, THE CLUTTER CONNECTION. I'm enjoying it. Especially the photos.
So excited for you Cass!!! Thanks for inspiring me and many others to be organized at home without going insane!!!!
Wonderful Cassie - this just popped up in my feed - I have been a subscriber to Clutterbug for many years - it's not just the helpful tips and tricks it's the silly bit at the end I love
I have been thinking I am a mess. But now I know I am a macro organizer. An eye opener speech 😍
OMG you were and are amazing. This is my favorite TED talk of all time. Congrats!
I just realized I am a visual organizer. Mind blown! I had no idea!
I’m a Butterfly!! Oh my gosh, my whole life and I didn’t realize this. You’re a genius, Cas!
Wow, Wow, Wow, you nailed it! I did not know this about myself. I hung my pots and pans on the wall next to the stove, I have partial open shelving, and I get GIDDY over any shelving system. I love to decorate with my "stuff". Thank you for this eye opener.
Cass! This popped up in my feed and I love that it's you...one of my favorite UA-camr's! ❤️
Very good talk Cassandra 💪🥇
Winner, winner, chicken dinner! Cassandra, you are my organizing hero - you got yourself another sub today!
Cass gurl!!!! So proud of you. You did AMAZING!!!! We love you Clutter Bug 🐞
SO PROUD OF YOU CAS!!!
Finally I get to see your talk. Yay! Cass, you did a great job.
She is smart, funny, and relatable! Thanks for the organizational inspiration!
OH THIS GIVES ME HOPE!!!! THANK YOU!!!

So proud of you Cas, you were awesome up there! Top job! Xxx 😎 👏
I’m a butterfly...now that I know it helps a lot!! Cass is fabulous!! 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Well done, Cas! I've watched you on UA-cam and your book helped me understand the differences in the way my husband and I like to organize. Thank you!
@clutterbug_me you rock and I can't wait to see your show on tv!
I knew she mentioned wanting to do a Ted Talk but I didn't know she had till this video was suggested! She did such a good job. On her UA-cam she does a great job explaining how to organize a home with multiple bugs!
YES!!!! You were awesome!!! ❤️❤️
OMG, Cas, you did a phenomenal job! You spoke so clearly & so well. You memorized all that?? That's commendable & definitely shows that you're NOT lazy! LOL!!
Cass! That was amazing! I love the idea that we can turn our biggest weakness into our biggest strength, I just think that is so inspiring 😊
OMG 🥰🥰🥰 I didn't realize Cass did a Ted talk until now. This was so brilliant girl! Proud subbie here💕
You were great in this presentation! Awesome!
