Summary

Summary

Finally, a housekeeping and organizational system developed for those of us who'd describe our current living situation as a "f*cking mess" that we "really need to get around to fixing one day." Unf*ck Your Habitat is for anyone who has been left behind by traditional aspirational systems—the ones that ignore single people with full-time jobs, people without kids but living with roommates, and people with mental illnesses or physical limitations. Most organizational books are aimed at stay-at-home moms and people who seem to have unimaginable amounts of free time. They assume we all iron our sheets, have linen napkins to match our table runners, and can keep plants alive for longer than a week. Basically, they ignore most of us living here in the real world.

Interspersed with lists and challenges, this practical, no-nonsense guide helps you develop lifelong habits. It motivates you to embrace a new lifestyle in manageable sections so you can start applying the tactics as you progress. This philosophy is more realistic than aspirational, but the goal is the same: not everyone will have a showcase of a home, but whatever your habitat, you deserve for it to bring you happiness, not stress.

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“This audio production blends Emily Woo Zeller’s sweet voice with the counterculture vibe you’d expect from an audio that wants to overturn everything you know about home management. The innocent, cheery aspect of her voice seems out of place with the author’s salty language, but Zeller sounds so earnest and relaxed delivering this book that her likability ultimately boosts the audio’s approachability. The author says we should resist the rigid imperatives many of us learn to make our homes museum-neat and clean. She confronts such perfectionism by debunking cultural gender-role prescriptions and by continually reminding listeners to live in their own skins, live in their own moments. Reclaim your autonomy, she says, and adapt household management ideals to yourself, rather than letting them oppress you with unrealistic demands.” AudioFile
Unf*ck Your Habitat has the potential to change your life and to improve your mental outlook in truly beautiful ways. Sara Benincasa, author of Real Artists Have Day Jobs
