Returning to his roots, Peter launched ‘Space Invaders’ in Australia, a groundbreaking primetime series on the Nine Network, now in its fourth season. This heartfelt show goes beyond organisation, it changes lives by helping families let go of the past and embrace a brighter future.

A New York Times best-selling author, Peter has written seven books on decluttering and organising, including ‘It’s All Too Much, Let It Go, Lose the Clutter, Lose the Weight’, and ‘Does This Clutter Make My Butt Look Fat?’. His books have been translated into ten languages, proving that his message resonates globally.

Beyond television and books, Peter is a dynamic speaker, delivering keynote addresses and workshops for organisations like Disney, IKEA, Microsoft, and OfficeMax. Whether on stage, on screen, or on the page, Peter’s mission remains the same: to help people create spaces, and lives, that truly reflect their best selves.
