“It’s not just called DEATH CLEANING, It’s called LIFE CLEANING too.”

By Åsa Nilsson | Jun 14, 2024

June 11th, 2024, marked a significant milestone for our family: Thomas and I proudly launched our Swedish Death Cleaning and Decluttering business, More Moss. Less Mess.

This dream has been a long time in the making, and now it’s finally a reality.

Thomas prefers to stay out of the spotlight, shying away from public speaking and attention. Convincing him to join me on the podcast was a challenge, but I promised it would be quick and that I’d handle most of the talking.

My goal was to introduce you to Thomas, the other half of our business, so you could see what our team brings to the table.

Listening back, I realized I dominated the conversation, often speaking over him. While this is how we work—I’m more vocal, and he’s more reserved—I wanted to make him comfortable and keep the episode brief for his sake. Still, it was important for you to meet him again (he first appeared in Season 1, Episode 9, which offers a glimpse into our history).

Our mission is to normalize Swedish Death Cleaning, turning it into a regular conversation rather than a daunting task. We aim to make the process of dealing with death less intimidating and more accepted as a natural part of life.

Thank you for being part of this journey with us.
