I’ve created productivity worksheets that I’m selling at my Etsy shop for $8.

What’s included:

1 - 8.5 x 11in PDF file (Letter - US & Canada) &

1- 210 x 270 mm PDF file (A4 - International) 

Both with the following printable pages:

- Cover Page

- The Habit Builder

- Habit Building Tips

- Progress Tracking Chart

- Session Notes Template

- Daily Planner

- Weekly Planner

- 2 Monthly Planners

- Draft Planner

- Revision Planner

- 3 Quarterly Showing Up Trackers

I would offer them for free here, like many other writing tools I’ve created, but I’m trying to create some passive income for my upcoming (unpaid) maternity leave!

The diet industry wants your money and doesn’t care about your health.

Here are 10 examples of this to serve as reminders you can come back to.

10. It took two weeks for the industry to respond to a pandemic with the suggestion of immune boosting foods. This is not a thing.

9. Keto is Atkins, recycled.

8. Alkaline eating is not real. Nothing you eat will change your pH. This is good.

7. You cannot hack your health.

6. The only real appetite suppressant is food.

5. Clean eating is not real. Wash your hands. Wash your dishes. Clean.

4. There are zero health conditions that occur in only fat bodies. Zero.

3. Diet culture posits health as a choice. This is an untrue statement.

2. The diet industry is behind the wellness industry that unfairly suggests to humans that the side effects of being human can be mitigated with food. They cannot.

1. It garners $72 BILLION DOLLARS/year.

Your political beliefs absolutely do reflect who you are as a person. End of.

Told my boyfriend I am going to apply for a month-long university program abroad that would help me find an out-of-state/maybe-out-of-country job in a new industry and he told me he wants to go abroad with me, he’ll help me pay for the course if I need it, and that he’s excited to possibly move someplace new :) I literally couldn’t ask for a more supportive partner.
