Tonya Dalton
Have you ever spent the day tackling your to-do list only to go to bed feeling like you didn’t get enough done? We have all been there so Productivity Expert and author of “The Joy of Missing Out,” Tonya Dalton explains how we can change all of that with a little JOMO. Tonya encourages us to let go of being busy and instead prioritize what brings us joy so we can live more by doing less. Many get overwhelmed by their daily to-do list thinking there are too many tasks when in reality it’s just anxiety stemming from not knowing where to start. Tonya’s tip: turn your to-do list to into a priority list which is shorter and tells you exactly where to start. Start by escalating the most important and urgent items to the top of your list. Next, cultivate important tasks that are not urgent and relate to your personal growth. Finally, accommodate tasks that feel urgent but are not important. The tasks you accommodate can often times be delegated leaving more time for yourself.

FASHIONABLE FLANNELS

Cozy flannels are like the white t-shirts of fall. Celebs like Reese Witherspoon and Gwen Stefani recently rocked flannel showing this comfy cozy classic can go beyond pajamas. Lawrence shares three flannel inspired looks you can try to take part in this fall trend.

First, instead of a basic flannel shirt, accessorize with a flannel piece with fly away details that frame the face adding a feminine touch. A flannel vest is a great example.

Next, elevate the distressed wearing a powerful piece underneath like a flannel shirt.

Finally, this trend is accessible for all ages and body types with a sleek flannel A line dress with tights or leggings to cover your legs and keep the line of the outfit moving.

Pro tips from Lawrence also include 1.) You don’t want the trend to wear you, you want to wear the trend. 2.) You can also keep your flannel fresh when washing by avoiding hot water, using a gentle cycle, and fabric softener. Place flannel in the dryer or air dry.

Healthy Food Swaps
Reducing sugar from your diet is not as easy as cutting out cakes and donuts as many of the foods we think of as healthy contain a whole lot of sugar. Nutrition expert Harley Pasternak reveals hidden high sugar foods you should avoid and healthy swaps. Our daily sugar intake is easily doubled by condiments like ketchup, orange juice, and granola which are full of added sugars.

Harley suggests replacing high sugar condiments like ketchup and barbecue sauce with spices includes steak spice, a Jamaican spice rub or lemon pepper. Reduce the sugar in your orange juice by making your own which has 70% less sugar than store bought brands. Make your own tasty granola with less sugar by mixing puffed rice, freeze dried fruit and almonds.

Harley also tells Debbie and Cameron about his new product called Sweetkick that helps kick your sugar addiction.
