Episode notes
Make Convenience Foods Deliberate Staples
- Use convenience foods that truly save time and energy rather than aiming for perfection.
- Stock favorites (pre-pulled rotisserie chicken, frozen garlic/ginger cubes, Rao's sauce, Trader Joe's Mandarin Chicken, Better Than Bouillon) to simplify meals.
Skip Convenience Items That Decrease Quality
- Avoid buying pre-shredded cheese, spice blends, and pre-cut produce if they reduce quality or usage.
- Prefer blocks of cheese, mix your own spices when you enjoy it, and cut produce yourself to avoid waste.
Decide Once On A Go‑To Makeup Routine
- Create a simple, dependable makeup routine and stick to products that feel like you.
- Use sunscreen, a foundation stick, bronzer, luminizer, blush, brow pencil, cream shadow, liner, and mascara for a quick, repeatable look.
