About the hardcover bookmaker MacLellan Books

Excerpt from the hardcover book

We discovered that buried beneath all the clutter was always a reason as to why it got there. In working through that person's material belongings, we recognized how important finding balance was. And we're not saying that life can always be perfectly balanced. Nonetheless, we do believe that you can achieve balance. Being conscious of what your balance is will give you more strength and resilience when life throws a curveball at you ...

We all struggle with many things in life. We are always evolving and facing new challenges. It appears likely that the more we experience, the bigger the challenges we need to face. We would say that the more we learn, the more capable we are of handling bigger problems.

We have used this method in our own lives since 2010, and we have been able to:

  • Take control of our finances and get out of debt
  • Create a business doing what we love
  • Spend more time with family and friends
  • Have a flexible schedule that allows us to travel
  • Eat healthier

Over the years, we have been able to use proven systems, tools, and methodologies to help our clients create the freedom they desire by giving them simple ways to manage any aspect of their lives. And in a way that they can make intentional choices using practical steps.

We are the masters of decluttering. Physically, mentally, and emotionally. We want to help you remove the things that you don't need to be doing and focus on what really matters to you.

If you KNOW you can do more and just want some help to do so, let's work together.

It's not only about you, but the huge impact your new lifestyle and actions will have on your loved ones and other individuals that have the opportunity to meet you.

This is the POWER of this method, the same way we are influencing you, you will also influence others through your actions The more intentional your lives become, the more passion, motivation, balance, focus, and love you will experience. It's not about judging or imposing your way, it's about doing what feels right for you and respecting other's opinions.

If they are ready, they will notice what you are doing, get curious about it, and most likely feel inspired to explore more.

You will start functioning in "growth mode" instead of "crisis mode." You will ask yourself: How can I be most helpful to myself and to others? How can I be the best version of myself right here and right now?

It's a positive chain reaction.

    “A recipe for an extraordinary life” is a great read.  It is a wonderful reminder of the importance of simplicity in our lives.  We have become so focused on the busyness of life that we tend to forget what is truly important.  I look forward to implementing some changes in my own life to bring back some simplicity.

  2. Emilio & Samantha (verified owner)

    Thank you, Melanie, for taking the time to share with us your thoughts about our book. We hope you can bring some simplicity into your life.

    If you’re looking for a fresh start to 2018, I highly recommend ordering a copy of “A Recipe For An Extraordinary Life” by my amazing friends Samantha Kristoferson & Emilio Jose Garcia of KW Professional Organizers.

    What an honest and inspiring read. Thank you to Sam & Emilio for always encouraging me to be my best self and for deeply caring about our world’s well-being. Congratulations on your first hardcover!

    Easy read and very inspirational. My personal take away was in the decluttering/organizing stuff section. I will certainly go back to this when taking on organization projects around my house and classroom. I can’t wait to get started and this book has really upped my motivation! Awesome for inspiration to get your belongings, social life and many other aspects of life organized!

  6. Emilio & Samantha (verified owner)

    I read this book during a recent March snowstorm. (Every year I figure if you start “spring cleaning” the warm weather will quickly follow).
    This book reads like a warm hug of inspiration!!! Love It

  10. Emilio & Samantha (verified owner)

    Thank you Liz for sharing your review. We like your motivation for changing the weather and agree with you. Wishing you all the best.

    I loved your book! Helping to motivate me to do what I truly love and making time for all of the the things that important to me.

  12. Natalie (verified owner)

    What a lovely little book! I’ve spent some time with Sam and Emilio and I’m sure others will agree, they are both so positive, optimistic and inspiring. When I learned they had written a book I was excited to see all their amazing thoughts and tips all wrapped up in a little book! I personally loved reading about their own experiences with all the topics they covered. The section on giving back really stuck with me as I realized that it was something that I’m not very thoughtful about. It really inspired me to hook up with a few local non-profits and donate some of my time and photography skills 🙂 Looking forward to any future books this duo creates!

  13. Linda Korgemets (verified owner)

    The thing I lik s the best was getting to know Sam and Emilio better. It takes courage to put your authentic self in print and it’s so refreshing to see this. A simple life lived authentically!

  14. Angela

    A great little book with all the key tips to help you get organized. Also loved the personal stories of the authors.
