Thank you laura, this episode is so useful, ❤
Happy new year🥳
Do you have channel in youtube ?
Oh that conversation was so fast😅
Thank you Laura 🤍

I wish you would write the text of the podcast in your description.
👌
This is actually a really great idea!
OMG, this is brilliant! I'm definitely one of those people who spends too much time nitpicking and this makes a lot of sense 🤯 #TIL
Such a great point... I'll definitely be sharing this episode with several family members 😊
This is a very bad advise. Precisely because only one wordle a day makes it more addictive, limiting indulgence to one a day is a terrible idea.
Thank you, that's a truly terrible idea 😁
Stupid advice invented just because
What a dumb advice! :(
Great tips! Pre portioned fruit and veggies changed the way I eat. I used to prep everything we ate. But once my health took a hit, I stopped because I was just too exhausted. I finally gave in and now I can meet my nutrional goals and reduced our food waste exponentially!
I just discovered this podcast a week ago and really enjoying them during my morning walks. very helpful and centering. I have read all of Laura Vanderkam books and looking forward to the new one, Tranquility By Tuesday. thank you!
