When life happens, an Insta-worthy organized closet is not worth striving for…but, your home can still be your soft place to land.
Karissa Barker (@karissaathome) loves to pore over aesthetic home organization and décor books. But to be perfectly honest, none have ever given her the tools to change the way things work in her home. Most are little more than a motivational speech with pretty pictures. When she was new to keeping house and life got extra busy or overwhelming, she wished she had someone to hold her hand and give her not just a visual guide, but habits and strategies for a better, easier path to an organized home. After years of experimentation and finding out what works, Karissa offers just that in The Home Reset.
This indispensable guide collects the essential strategies and skills you can rely on to make any space—apartment, condo, or house—cleaner and better organized on a daily basis. Moving through each key room or space, Karissa outlines everything that even the busiest of families can do, always starting with key resets and then exploring the habits and techniques for that space:
Additionally, you’ll find a chapter of core skills, hacks, and tips for extra-challenging seasons of life. And a robust appendix, complete with many of Karissa’s popular checklists and printables, provide reusable material week after week. So ditch the frustration and jump in with a home reset!

Tired of being inundated with curated, picture-perfect displays of homemaking that were completely unrelatable, Karissa Barker set out to blog with a mission. She would harness the energy of Martha Stewart but design her content for a new generation. Recognizing that most people have no idea what they are doing when it comes to designing, organizing, and the upkeep of a home, Karissa built her brand on teaching solid, achievable basics. Today, she has expanded to about a million followers across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, but she still maintains her blog, newsletter, and storefront at karissaathome.com.
