Friday Favorites: 5 Products to Make Your Life Easier

April 20, 2018 by Steph Leave a Comment


We’re all looking for stuff to make our lives easier without spending a ton of money; right? These five products are all under $26, and I use them daily so I can vouch for their usefulness. Without further ado, here’s my list:

1. These heat sealers have come in so. flipping. handy. when it comes to resealing bags of all kinds. If you’re tired of having stale chips, these are for you. (I would NEVER tell you to use these to reseal your Color Street strips because that is not recommended for our products, but if you DID use them for that, I wouldn’t rat you out.)
2. This handbag organizer is my new favorite thing. It can go skinny to fit into my Luci bag or wide to fit my Kate Spade. It gives everything a place in whatever bag I carry, and that sings to me in ways I can’t even explain.
3. This purple shampoo is fantastic if you’re a silver fox like me. (Blondes, this is for you, too.) Even when I use it every time I wash my hair, it doesn’t do that weird blue tint thing some other purple shampoos have done, but it DOES get rid of any brassiness.
4. This water bottle is LIFE. At 64 oz, it holds the daily recommended amount of water. (I fill it twice, though.) So you know you’re getting your hydration needs met. With only ONE trip to the ice maker.
5. The lid that goes with the water bottle in #4 should probably count as a sub-item, but whatever. Since you have to buy it separately, it’s a separate item; OKAY? (It’s worth the extra $$, I swear.)

So there you have it – my current favorites. What’s on your list? Do you have any of these yourself?

P.S. When it’s legal in my state, my 4/20 Favorites will look TOTALLY different. 😀

Tips to Stay Motivated

February 12, 2018 by Steph Leave a Comment

Today kicks off the Seven Day Kindness challenge, but I’m not going to delve into that too much because you can get all those details in the best Facebook group ever. But this challenge has gotten me thinking about motivation and how to get it and keep it because I gotta tell y’all, as much as I want to be kind, my petty side wins out a lot. So how am I going to keep motivated through all this?

...as much as I want to be kind, my petty side wins out a lot.Click To Tweet

1. I’ve stated a public intention to be kinder. So now I’ve got folks watching me and I don’t want to let them down. (Or prove the haters right. Heh.)

2. I’m not in it alone. By having a group of friends who are in this with me, I have a support system for the days when I just don’t want to be kind, dammit. They can help me get back on track.

3. I dumped the “all or nothing” mindset. If I slip, no big deal. Just try again. Eventually, enough tries to do the thing will turn into a habit of just doing the thing.

4. I’ve got my “why” solidly in place, and I’ve put up little reminders all over the place to help me remember I want to feel more aligned with my best self.

So what about you? Do you have any motivation tips or tricks to share? Hit the comments and do tell.

Hi, I’m Steph!

I'm reading books (mostly) from Kindle Unlimited so you don't have to...unless they're awesome and well-worth your valuable reading time.

You're welcome. 😂
