Ask Me Anything...

Let's chat! + some Black Friday deals worth adding to cart

Hello friends — Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. I’ve been offline this week hanging with my little turkeys.

Truth be told, I’m still navigating this Substack thing and trying to find ways to build community outside of your inbox. So, I’m doing something a little different this week—my first Ask Me Anything.

me + my turkeys <3

Here’s how it’s going it’s going work: you write a question in the comments and I answer it. Maybe it’s a recipe you’d love to healthify, a product rec you’ve been looking for, or a question about how much protein you need, optimal fasting windows, blood sugar-friendly snacks, a supplement your friend takes, or another nutrition topic. Nutrition is often a lot of little questions—if you’re thinking it, I’m sure someone else is too, so don’t be shy:

I’m so so grateful for all of you who read these posts every week—I guess this is a way for me to answer more direct questions, and to say: How can I help? This is a space first and foremost for you, and your questions will inspire future nutrition deep dives, recipes, and more. So, thank you.

This post is open for all, but we have a chat going for paid subscribers if you want to Ask Me Anything anytime. Here’s how to upgrade (and since everyone else is doing it, it’s 20% off today):

SALE SALES SALES
Black Friday seems to get more overwhelming every year. The emails are intense, but I guess it’s better than braving the crowds and packed parking lots. Gosh, remember that? Still, Black Friday is a great time to stock up on things—here are a few deals that are worth adding to cart:

Beauty
BF is a great time to stock up on clean beauty products.

• Credo Beauty: This is a one stop shop for nontoxic beauty products and it’s all 20% off. This includes brands like Osea (I love the Undaria Body Oil), Westman Atelier, and RMS Beauty.

• Crown Affair: 30% off a bundle of three products. If you’ve been wanting to try their products, now is the time—I love their shampoo & conditioner, leave-in conditioner, dry shampoo, and air dry mousse. Plus the towel is great.

• Goop Beauty: 20% off all products, including their mascara, shampoo & conditioner, and my favorite exfoliator.

Home
Bedding, kitchen, cleaning, & more.

• Parachute: My favorite bedding company is offering 30% off everything. That is an insane discount. I have these sheets, this quilt, and even this baby blanket. Love it all.

• Material Kitchen: Up to 40% off their kitchen tools and knives, plus an additional 10% with the code EXTRA10. I use all of these products daily and cannot recommend enough. The Iconics Set has literally everything you need and is 40% off. Best deal in town.

My gosh, this is the part that overwhelms me the most. Some highlights:

• ShopBop: 25% site wide sale. Get some socks, a classic button down, or a new workout set.

• Doên: A tons of treasures are for sale like this gorgeous dress, and this one, this cashmere sweater, and this cute beret, which I don’t think I can pull off but someone should buy this.

Supplements
A few supplements offers that will save you money.
