050: What If You Could Actually Tidy Up Your Life? with Tyler Moore

Have you seen the dad who cleans on Instagram?

I don’t know if Tyler Moore, aka Tidy Dad, enjoys that people probably know him that way, but I think it’s accurate!

I’ve followed Tyler since the summer of 2022 - but who in the world remembers WHEN they started following someone on Instagram? You’ll hear why that summer was important in Tyler’s career during the interview, and also some little-known tales of how and why he got started online. (I was surprised!)

In this joyful and open conversation, you’ll hear:

  • why Tyler “declutters” differently than the guru books
  • how the Moore family pushes against “the norm” with how and where they choose to live
  • how Tyler’s own parents helped lay some foundations for tidy-ness (but also ultimately caused his life to feel very UN-tidy)
  • some of the practical cleaning advice that Insta-followers go gaga for
  • what the philosophy of “just enough” really means and how it looks in real life
  • peeks and glimpses into Tidy Dad’s new book, Tidy Up Your Life - super fun!
  • what Tyler says to his girls when they don’t really feel like helping with chores

I really do love watching Tidy Dad clean; it’s kind of ridiculous. You’ll love listening to him and feeling his optimism even more!

Be sure to pre-order the book ASAP to help him hit the bestseller lists in January!!
