  • I think we need to address a big piece of the puzzle of an organized life: feeling good. And more specifically - feeling good about the way we look.

    I know, feeling good about the way you look isn’t EVERYTHING
but isn’t it something? Have you noticed how much better life feels on a good hair day? Or when you have something new to wear?

    There is an invisible connection between how we take care of ourselves on the outside - and how we feel on the inside. And in this episode, we talk about three easy, fun, and practical ways we can level up our self care so we can feel good.

    Other fun takeaways:

    Feeling good is a giant springboard for doing other things that can help you feel good. We wear 20% of our clothes 80% of the time.When your clothes don’t fit, it’s the clothes that need to be fired – not the body.It is abuse to yourself to make yourself wear clothes that don’t fit or are uncomfortable. In other words, everyone deserves clothes that make them feel good – inside and out.The gap between your current and future self closes quickly when you line up your wardrobe with your future self.The space for what you want is filled up with what you’ve already settled for instead.If you want confident, self-assured kids, they will learn best from your example.
