You ever feel like making decisions about what to eat never ends? That’s why meal planning for your family is helpful.


In this episode, you’ll learn how to create a meal plan for your family that will save you money, work with your schedule, and improve your food choices.


When you’re responsible for making meal decisions for yourself and everyone else, decision fatigue and overwhelm can occur if you don’t plan ahead.


As a mom of three small children, I had to devise a framework and routine to make this daunting task MAGIC. I use the EATS framework whenever I make a meal for my family (I talk about this in the book!) 


EATS is entree, appetizer, treat, and sustenance. Use this framework for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It also works for *any* dietary preference.


Meal planning isn’t just about cooking - even if you know you’re going to have takeout, planning to do so helps with your schedule and budget. 


Meal planning isn’t just about eating; it’s about honoring your family’s preferences, schedule, health, and budget.

We make 35,000 decisions a day.  In the book, I discuss how making SADs (small a—decisions) in real-time is extremely time-consuming and energy-consuming.
That’s why making small decisions ahead of time is so helpful to keeping MAGIC front and center in your life. 
Every time we make small decisions in real-time, we experience decision fatigue and overwhelm, which prevents us from being productive and takes the joy out of our days.
Future you deserves the kindness of current you making decisions ahead of time.
In this episode, you’ll learn 3 tools for making decisions ahead of time, which will give you more energy and productivity.

We're often trying to find our life mission. Many people never find it because they never decided what it would be. 

Yes, that's right - your life's mission is up to you.

Truthfully, I don't believe there's a "wrong" mission in life as long as it's not out of God's will. And if He trusts you enough to give you free will, commit to deciding your personal (not business) mission statement and watch how much clarity starts to come into your life. 

This isn't about what you think you "should" be doing - it's what you are compelled to do that you should be honest with yourself about.

Once you decide, then write your personal mission statement.

In this episode, you'll learn how to create a personal mission statement, why it matters and how to live your life because of it. 

In the very first episode of the Everyday MAGIC podcast, I'm sharing why I started this podcast (and the fact I was scared to start it!), what to expect in the coming episodes, and what I'm excited to share with you this season. 

In case you're unfamiliar, Everyday MAGIC is the first book I've written as an author. It's a framework that allows you to make life and home meaningful, aesthetically pleasing, goal-oriented, intentional, and consistent.

While I've succeeded as an influencer over the last 10 years, I'm most proud of the life I've created at home and the systems necessary to keep it organized. This podcast is where I will share what has worked for me, hoping you can make it your own and work for you.

Here's to a new chapter. 

Love you and there's nothing you can do about it.
