My Favorite Amazon Products For Business and Life

I love Amazon!

It’s convenient, efficient, and you can find some really great deals on there.

I’m constantly finding good deals of products and wanted to share with you my favorites for business and life.

Running My Business

Podcast Microphone– this is the exact podcast mic I use for my business. It plugs into my USB and is easy to travel with.

Amazon Echo Dot– this is my home office. Everyday I tell Alexa to play Todays Hits and start my workday.

Acroball pens– these pens write smoothly and are my go-to pen for jotting down notes.

Airpods– I use my AirPods every single day. They are convenient, have a decent battery life and make life easy

Tombow markers– my go-to highlighter markers of choice

1 TB External hard drive– as a content creator, I have to have storage for videos, podcasts, photos and documents.

Audible Subscription– I’ve tried all kinds of audio book downloading platforms and Audible is my go-to. Click the link to get your first book for free

Video and Photography Equipment

Ring light– this thing makes a huge difference in video and also gives your complexion a smooth appearance so you look great.

Canon 7d– this camera is speedy but worth it if you are serious about photography and recording videos.

Rode Mic– this attaches to the top of my camera and plugs in. It also has a “dead cat” or windsock so you can record outside without picking up extra wind noise.

Tripod– any tripod works, this is an inexpensive one from Amazon that does the job and is lightweight and portable.

Memory cards– I have a few of these on hand, they are so helpful for content creation and allow you to have enough space that your camera doesn’t shut off when recording.

Household

Glass water bottle set– I don’t like cold water. Every Sunday I use these glass water bottles (they come in a set of 6), fill them with my filtered fridge water and have them in my pantry. They are room temp and allows me to chug so much more water!

Coffee Bean grinder– cheap and effective grinder.

Electric gooseneck tea kettle – this tea kettle is so cute, matte black, and looks stylish if it’s sitting on your counter. I love having it for hot lemon water in the mornings and a cup of mint tea in the evenings.

Shower notes– this notepad and pencil stick to my shower wall and help me jot down ideas or “don’t forget this” thoughts before I lose them (it’s also nice because Tony leaves me love notes periodically)

Sea Salt Flakes– I know this seems like a weird Amazon purchase, but no joke, sea salt flakes take a boring dish and elevate it. It’s so worth the money, trust me!

Casper Mattress– this is a spendy purchase, but you spend 1/3 of your life in bed. This mattress alleviated Tony’s backpain and makes us miss our bed when traveling. It’s sooo worth it.

Spice jars– one of the best things we did was organize our spice jars. We used these spice jars and created a spice drawer– it looks good and allows us to find spices with ease

Beauty + Fashion

Jade roller– this sits on my nightstand and helps me with lymphatic drainage in my face and neck.

Magic Balm– I have a small thing of this all purpose balm sitting by my laptop in my office and will throw a bit of this product around my cuticles while I work.

This flowy red dress– I receive SOOOOO many compliments on this dress and it was honestly super inexpensive. It’s one of my favorites and most flattering dresses.

Vintage black and white floral tea dress– this dress is inexpensive AND pretty decent quality. The material is thicker and the cut is flattering.

Automate your savings. I know, I know, broken rec Automate your savings.

I know, I know, broken record status.

But it’s crazy how many people don’t actually implement this tip.

Login your bank account or use your favorite savings app and make this happen (automatically of course).

Once you have that set up, come back here and comment that you did it so I can cheer you on!
Paying off debt is an awesome thing to do... And Paying off debt is an awesome thing to do...

And you can go at whatever pace works for your life.

There’s a huge misconception that you have to go “balls to the wall”, work every extra shift you can, AND do it all while never complaining.

That’s one way to do it. It’s not THE way.

In actuality, personality types and self-awareness is a huge factor when setting your level of aggressiveness.

✨For me personally- I function very well on short timelines where I can hustle my heart out and accomplish it quickly (so I don’t have to worry about it again). My debt payoff plan was very aggressive to pay off $30k in 10 months.

✨For some of my coaching clients- that doesn’t resonate with them. They want to make progress towards their debt and still buy some of the nonessentials even if that means keeping debt around for a couple extra years.

✖️Neither strategy is wrong.✖️

Approach debt payoff (and all financial goals) with a loooot of self-awareness. 

Being honest with your personality type and how you function best is a great way to not get burned out in the process.
The book I, by far, recommend most is The Power of The book I, by far, recommend most is The Power of Habit.

It’s one of those books that helped me improve my finances, relationships and coaching business.

No surprise, we all have habit loops that help us or hurt us.

#REALTALK:
When I was working a normal 9-5, I noticed I was spending a LOT more 💸 buying coffee.

When I analyzed my habit loop, I started to see what was actually happening.

✨CUE: get to work, open my email, get overwhelmed. Tell myself I need coffee.

✨ROUTINE: Walk to the coffee shop and spend $3-$5 per day

✨REWARD: Warm cup of coffee. Didn’t have to dive into email... yet. 😆

What I wanted was not coffee. It was avoiding checking my email. So instead, I was able to take a short gratitude walk in the morning instead of buying coffee.

It worked like a champ!

Look through your life. What is one habit loop you’re actively improving?

Use this strategy and watch your life change. 💕
My goal is to invest more money in my brokerage ac My goal is to invest more money in my brokerage account.
