I have been horribly depressed since my husband was killed by a drunk driver and I was badly injured and left to care for our 3 children under 6 who also survived the crash. Your videos brighten my day and make me forget my nightmare if only for a half an hour. Thank you.

I am so grateful I found your videos. I'm no longer ashamed of how my home looks. You showed me how to begin to clean my home. I suffer from depression and my home looks alot like the homes you clean and I have started cleaning mine by following your techniques. Bless you❤

I suffer from depression but honestly, having an unkempt home would make me more miserable. My home is my sanctuary from the outside world. So I MUST keep it clean and organized. I can almost hear my great grandmother in my head tell me to get my butt up and clean. I especially have to keep my kitchen, bedroom and bathroom clean. Having a clean home just makes me feel more accomplished and peaceful. We all deserve to live in a peaceful, serene, beautiful and clean home. 🥰

I didn't realize you have only been around since 2020. I pretty much have been watching since the beginning. I really like your kindness. I don't mean to be personal here. I lost my mother that summer, July actually, after her 11 year battle with Alzheimers. I was living with her from diagnosis up to the point when she needed to be placed in professional care. I slipped into a depression where living conditions matched petty much what I see in your videos. The guilt, hoplessness and dispair is smothering. Please keep the videos coming!❤

I thought I knew everything about cleaning a house until I started watching these videos and I learned so much!!! Thank you.

My first apartment looked like the ones you clean. They are not staged and I don't understand how people can think you come into someones, make it dirty and throw a lot of trash there, so you can clean it. Yes, depression often are the reason behind it. It can make you not see in what terrible condition your home is. It makes you learn to ignore it but you also know the condition is more than terrible and you don't want anyone to come to your home, because it's embarrassing.

If you have depression and your home is starting too look like this start with the 5 min rule. When it is too mutch it can feel impossible to do anything so just star with 5 min of taking a trashbag and pick upp what you can in those 5 min every day. It wont solve everything but it will make small difference.

Hi Auri, I'm a cleaner/carer and I just wanted to say what an inspiration you are! I have autism/adhd and find it hard to keep on top of my own housework but love helping other people 😊 thanks for the wholesome content!

No home gets this dirty by accident, there's always some kind of mental and/or physical issue involved. I get that sometimes you just want to be lazy, but you keep a liveable standard, like you at least wipe a table, because that takes five seconds. If you cannot do that anymore, you have a problem and need to get help. Everybody deserves to be healthy and happy

Man when auri says “I found a spoon in the bathroom! How exciting, you never know what you’ll find!” Me- wishing I didn’t know what that obviously means and was innocent like that. Not that I’ve ever been a junkie just that I’ve been around long enough 😂

I’m always amazed how people are able to function whilst their home is in extremely out of control. Thank goodness for these nice ladies, helping them.

I am having shoulder surgery. I will be immobile for awhile, I’ve been feeling ashamed about asking for help.(my insurance will pay for it) but you made me feel better about it!

I've never believed you've staged any of your cleans because I used to do homecare and people's homes sometimes looks exactly like the videos you've posted. Except they don't have an Aurikatariina to help clean. As homecare workers we are not allowed to clean, only do specific medical tasks. Sometimes mental illness prevents people from accepting help or reaching out for help.

Auri, are you able to do longer videos? Particularly the afters. It’s so satisfying to watch, but I’d love to see the whole process, or more of it 😊. Anyway, maybe do a longer one 1 time a month? Love what you and your helpers do ❤

Auri, honestly all praise to you. Though you are young,you have the maturity most adults lack- you dont judge people no matter their situation and you help people knowing that relationships are ending but are positive that it will lead to new beginnings. Really enlifting message for people in all situations

With the turned over table and broken mirror this one looks like mental health or substance abuse. I hope you do your homework and do not go into dangerous places. I got that vibe from this place. Like it wasn't a safe place to be. Glad someone was with you. Spoons in weird places can mean cooking drugs. Please be careful.

Imagine being stuck and then being free!! ⭐️

I think it’s wonderful that you also help people with substance abuse issues.

OMG, this apartment looks amazing now! Great job, ladies; you've done SO much more than just clean here. I know it's incredibly appreciated.
