Morning Essentials
Little things I rely on to jumpstart the day without thinking too hard.
- First, coffee. Always.
- Frixion pen & planner: Erasable ink = genius.
- 10-minute stretch: Just enough to shake off the fog.
- House of Joseon sunscreen: SPF is self-care.
Apps I Swear By
These apps do the heavy lifting so I can stay organized, focused, and slightly less frazzled.
- Microsoft To Do: For groceries, tasks, and life admin.
- Trello: Keeps blog + work tasks in line.
- MyMinutes.ai: Backup brain for foggy days.
- 1Password: Because I will forget every password otherwise.
Sanity Savers
Tiny strategies I fall back on when the noise level rises and my patience runs low.
- Noise-canceling headphones: For when I need to focus or escape the world.
- Batching similar tasks: Less gear-switching, more flow.
- Good-enough meals: Frozen dumplings count.
- 2-minute rule: If it’s quick, I just do it.
