Timer + cute/cool desk clock*

⭐️ WHAT WE THINK

A great (cheap) little clock to stick on your desk that can also be a Pomodoro timer or work like one, if you’re into that.

One thing I’ve learned is that we tend to take the full allotment of time that we give ourselves to complete a given task, and if ya give yourself all damn day, it’s gonna take all damn day. 😂 So if you want something that’s quick/easy to set, that’ll beep at ya when the time’s up, and you can see it counting down, this is a great little attractive gadget to put on your desk.

Comes in about 5 different colors & several different shapes too!

my Flexispot Large Standing Desk* + memory presets

⭐️ What We Think

This desk is fantastic! It has a motor that raises and lowers the desktop/tabletop and even has 4 presets that you can set and customize for multiple users or different heights. The motor is pretty quiet, the tabletop is smooth with no cracks or gaps as it comes in one solid piece, and assembly was easy.

I absolutely LOVE my desk! I did a fair bit of research before buying and got almost everything on my wishlist, except drawer storage, but that’s not the end of the world, and still spent less than $300 USD!

my Urevo 3-in-1, Under-Desk Treadmill*

⭐️ What We Think

I did A LOT of research on what to buy and could not be happier with this one!! Easy to assemble, I saved a ton on the price, and it works so much better than I expected. I can easily walk 1-2mph while doing precise/focused work, or up to 2.8mph while doing basic tasks, watching videos, etc. no problem! I love getting more movement throughout my workday and feel a lot more energy after just 1 week of doing this 1x a day.

Conversion Cards, from James Wedmore

⭐️ WHAT WE THINK

It’s a literal, physical deck of 54 cards, each with a language pattern or conversion copy formula with a description and examples for how to put it into practice on your sales copy.

As if that wasn’t cool enough, you also get a digital deck with your purchase, –because James always over-delivers. LOL

This is a really badass tool to have in your toolbox, especially if you’re new to writing copy for your business. 😁

Cheapest/best ways to get an easy HD webcam*

⭐️ WHAT WE THINK

Need a legit crystal clear HD webcam but don’t want to spend a fortune –and you already have an iPhone?

There are TWO really great options & one is FREE! No joke.

This software installs on your iPhone AND your computer allowing you to use your phone’s camera wirelessly or wired as a high-resolution webcam in all the main software you’re already using, including Zoom, Google Meet, Whereby, Descript, Facebook & YouTube streaming, etc. It’s actually WAY better quality than my C920X external webcam –and at least as good as my 2021 M1 Macbook Pro built-in FaceTime camera!

The Middle Finger Project*

⭐️ What We Think

Stuck on copywriting for your business along with some legit laugh-out-loud, real-AF inspiration? Ash provides inspiration, motivation, and personality in spades. I literally couldn’t put this one down, …and may/may not (definitely do) have multiple copies of this book. 😂

(Lean) Instant Pot Cookbooks*

⭐️ WHAT WE THINK

My favorite cookbooks for my Instant Pot also happen to be leaner recipes, –but don’t let that fool you because Brittany’s (author) recipes are sooo good! My ‘foodie’ of a husband even approves. 😉😂

I have all 3 of her cookbooks & loved them so much, I ended up buying one of each for family members & also gifted 6qt Instant Pot to them both too ––I wasn’t kidding when I said I loooove my Instant Pot!)

I don’t abide by her ingredients lists 100%; her family has special nutrition needs, so I’m able to sub out any unusual ingredients as needed and they still turn out lean & absolutely delicious!

Standout Squarespace*, by Rache of SquareStylist

⭐️ What We Think

If you’ve taken other Squarespace courses and feel pretty comfortable on the platform BUT you want to dive deeper, learning how to write your own custom code solutions for even more creative designs that are still client-friendly, –you’re ready for Standout Squarespace by Rache of SquareStylist. It’s one of the most comprehensive courses I’ve ever taken so it’s a big time commitment (it will take a few months to get through it all, or at least a month if you take time off to do the course full-time), ––but it’s worth every penny. Rache is an amazing teacher with such a creative mind!

Samson Q2U*

⭐️ What We Think

I’ve been doing LOTS of client calls, recordings, meetings, tutorial videos, guest interviews, coaching calls, –and all things that ideally have better audio quality.

So… the internal mic on my Mac wasn’t cutting it anymore!

This super simple setup makes the sounds A LOT better. It comes with everything you need to set up & use it right out of the box –no software needed. (Add the adapter for Apple’s USB-C though!)*

It’s literally plug-and-play, works with everything you already use to stream, call or record, and your audio will sound lightyears better than it did before –all for less than a $100 bucks.

Adjustable Steel Laptop Stand*

⭐️ What We Think

Want to raise up your computer for a video call without a double chin thing happening? ––Er, I meant, to keep it from getting hot on your desk & for better ergonomic positioning while ya work. 😉 Seriously sturdy, holds my 16” MacBook Pro’s webcam up near eye level no prob.

AfterShokz Open Ear Phones*

⭐️ What We Think

These are bone conduction earphones. They don’t go in your ear at all so you can hear everything happening around you. Definitely won’t win any sound quality awards, but they’re safer to use when you need to be aware of your surroundings & they have FANTASTIC battery life!

AirPods Pro*

⭐️ What We Think

Killer sound & full immersion with the noise-canceling feature (which can be turned on OR off!), and decent battery life. With noise cancellation on, I can nearly drown out my husband’s band practice if I need to focus on work while he plays. With it off, I can hear everything around me, on top of the audio I’m playing. These are my FAVORITE earphones!
