Good Morning, Good Life, welcome back to AmyTV
where we come together to help you
go after the life you want.
This is actually the first time I'm sitting down to film
where you and I are on the same page.
You're aware of the secret, the little baby and my belly.
It's so weird now that I can finally talk about it
and it's so great.
So let me start by saying because that was the last thing
that I posted on my channel,
thank you so much for the absolutely amazing,
unbelievable amount of support,
well wishes, DMS, comments, stories,
it's so been received
and it just feels so good to have so many people
in supportive Vincenzo and I in our growing our family
and I look forward to providing more updates
about all of that soon,
but just know that we are so over the moon
and we really, really, really appreciate everybody out there
who is here with us to celebrate.
So thank you.
It's the most wonderful time of the year,
but it also don't we just need a freaking break?
I feel like 2021 has been such a journey.
Like 2020 had its own issues.
2021 has been like this weird hangover.
I just felt like if I was gonna do
a great holiday guide here on AmyTV,
it would be to celebrate just taking a minute,
stress-free relaxation chill, okay?
So that's what I wanna share today.
These are my gift ideas
if you want to help someone else
or yourself to be able to just take a minute
and feel good about it.
Comment down below if you're like me
and would put on their list to Santa
to just get a little bit more time.
Can we just have some more time?
Time is of the essence.
I need more of it.
(inhales and exhales sharply)
Is that too much?
Is that just too much to ask?
Everyone always feels like they can take a pause
when they get a nice sniffy sniff
and that is why I recommend Homesick Candles.
I am such a huge fan of them.
They really got their star
for people who might be a little homesick.
I cannot believe I actually got to buy the Ohio candle
'cause I felt like I had a good reason for it
now that I live in Florida.
I am just so excited about this.
Where's home to you?
Do you want to sniff it out?
Oh yeah, that's gonna remind me of home.
I love, love, love the Homesick,
like traditional Homesick Candles,
but they also have so many great themes.
I picked up one that is Winter Mantel.
So if you're wondering what winter smells like,
it's in here, trust me.
I've already sniffed it out.
What about the bookworm that you know,
somebody who loves to read?
Get them the Book Club Candle because it's amazing.
Smells like leather books on a rich mahogany shelf.
You know what I mean?
Check out absolutely anything from their line.
These are high quality, amazing candles.
We swear by them.
We have so many different themed candles
from Homesick in this house
and it's just like what are you in the mood for?
My next de-stress relaxation gift idea is from a company
that I wanna share with you right off the bat
I am an investor for.
This gift is for the wise woman,
it could be you by the way,
that is looking to improve different areas of her life.
It could be to de-stress a little bit more.
It could to get better sleep.
Maybe it's to do a little bit better
in terms of performance at the gym
and yes, maybe even improving your sex life.
House of Wise is what you need to check out.
They have CBD gummies and tinctures
that help with each of those areas
and they're expanding to help in so many different ways.
I absolutely love what they're doing because I think CBD
is something a lot of people are talking about right now
and you might be a little bit hesitant.
I definitely was very hesitant at the beginning,
especially with the number of companies there are out there,
but House of Wise is this specifically gearing these
toward the women who are trying
to problem solve in their life
and are specifically going to use a CBD product
to be able to make their life better in a particular area.
I will say that initially
I was not interested in CBD whatsoever.
It's just not something
that has ever been characteristic of me
and I just stayed away from it altogether.
But I was allowed to try the product very early on
just as a gift and I didn't right away,
but there was one night where I could not sleep
and that is not like me.
Well, pre-pregnancy.
That's not like me.
It was a Sunday night, I'll never forget.
I was staying up and worrying
and being upset with the fact that I couldn't fall asleep
because my week was gonna start off on the wrong terms
and so all these different things were working against me.
So I thought, okay, if I'm gonna try it, now is the time
and this was like a year ago.
I tried the sleep gummy from House of Wise
and I'm not kidding,
I was out like a light 30 minutes later.
I couldn't believe it.
I could not believe it.
I was checking to see if my watch metrics were correct.
Did I actually fall asleep that fast?
It was awesome.
So there's a combination of melatonin and CBD
in this particular product.
Obviously every one is customized
for the different situation that you're solving for,
but I would not have continued to become a customer
and then an investor if it did not work for me and it does
and so I really do recommend this.
I love how they send everything
in this little house container, get it, house.
Although I cannot enjoy
this problem-solving technique for the time being
as someone who is with child,
I will be looking forward to bringing back
some tincture gummy CBD into my life
when I need it in the future.
So if you know someone who is interested in trying CBD
and maybe there's just a different area of their life
they're working on improving,
definitely check out the House of Wise line.
If you use my discount code, AMYTV20,
you get 20% off your first purchase,
so check that out in the description down below.
My next gift idea is a company
I've been a big fan of for such a long time
and actually, the next gift is from them as well.
For the person who needs a little mindfulness in their life
and maybe needs to try journaling
but hasn't given it a shot yet,
this is the thing for that.
This is from Intelligent Change.
It is called the Five Minute Journal.
My friend, if you know me,
you have heard me talk about the Five Minute Journal
a million times on this channel.
I'm a big, big fan.
I think it's so smart.
It's a great way to get started
with just checking in with yourself and journaling,
but can we just take a moment
for this Emerald gold journal situation?
It is so beautiful.
When I saw it, I was like,
"That is a 2022 journal honey, okay?
"That is something that we need."
What I love about Five Minute Journal
is it's literally that.
You get prompts in the morning and at night,
all of which will not take more than five minutes a day
and you really do get to check in
in a way that feels authentic to you.
You can just honestly say what's on your mind
and if you put too much pressure
on yourself about journaling
like, "I'm not gonna write the right things
"or I'm saying too much negative stuff,"
these prompts really send you in the right direction.
Five Minute Journal even has an app.
So if you're not a paper
and pencil type of person, use the app.
I just, I love that they make it so accessible for someone
to start journaling in their life,
but this is adorable
and absolutely needs to be in a gift pack.
Next from Intelligent Change,
I was very excited to see this in their store.
It is so unique.
This is their Mindful Affirmations cards.
So kind of like someone has a desk calendar
where they tear the day off every day,
this is something that they could have on their desk as well
to help them think more positively in their life
and center themselves when things get hard.
These cards sit on this beautiful little stand
and remind you of the affirmation of the day.
Let me just read you a few.
I'm always in the right place at the right time.
Every day I experienced the joy of receiving
and giving abundance
and I am healthier and more joyful in every way every day.
I just thought this was so unique
and it's definitely for the person who is like a lot of us
and maybe affirmations don't come that naturally.
We need a little bit of coaching
and a little bit of help on something positive
that we could say or remember
that will keep us on track.
This is such a great gift
and it is really one of those things that you know
you wanna buy someone something
that they might not buy themselves.
This really feels like that to me
and so I think this is a great gift
especially if you put it
with the Five Minute Journal, good idea.
Next up is The Skinny Confidential's Hot Mess Ice Roller.
I had to take it out of the freezer for you.
You've been seeing rollers all over the internet I am sure,
but Lauryn Evarts Bosstick does not disappoint.
She is the skincare queen.
She connects us to all the brightest minds in the industry
of how we can take care of our skin,
take care of our bodies, take care of our health
and she has all these people on her podcast,
The Skinny Confidential,
but they have started a skincare line
and one of the first products
that they have put out into the world is this ice roller.
If you know Lauryn,
you know that she had some really major jaw surgery
back in the day where she thought
she was only gonna have swelling for months to a year
and that ended up being about three years
of swelling for her.
One of the things that helped her a lot
with the bloat in her face was the act of lymphatic drainage
which you can get done with a facial,
but you can also do with an ice roller
or with a different type of roller.
This is the biggest roller I have ever seen
and when I saw her using it,
I was like we're getting that 'cause if she made it,
you know it is good 'cause she has had such a journey
with getting the bloat out of her face
and yes, lately I have been dealing
with a lot of bloat in the face.
Also just in pregnancy, I've been like overheated,
so I'm just like eyes rolling like everywhere,
but this is so amazing
and there's a lot of other products in the store right now
as she keeps coming out with something new all the time.
I think the ice roller also could have a sleeping bag now
which is great for storage in your freezer,
but that's where I keep it.
I keep it in the freezer, pull it out,
do a little drainage, drainage, drainage, drainage
and it's all you need.
You cool yourself down.
You get all the fluid out of your face and you feel great.
What else says let me take a minute
than ice rolling your face, okay?
(upbeat music)
This next gift is from a company called Seasoned Journals
because I just know about every journal company
in the world apparently.
They are famous for their first product
which is The Engagement Journal,
which is the first journal I've ever seen
that was specifically for couples who got engaged
and really getting each other on the same page
about the life they were building together.
Yeah, you can go get a wedding planner,
but then you could also get an engagement journal too.
So maybe that's more your speed for this holiday season
if you know someone that's engaged,
but I picked up her Noteworthy Gift Box.
First of all, look how lovely this wood box is.
It's reusable in so many ways.
What you get in the gift box is a few different things.
First you get they're small notebooks.
There's three small notebooks in here.
I love these little like field notesy type of notebooks.
They're the easiest thing
to keep in your purse to make a note
especially if you're a paper
and pencil type of person like me.
I'm a paper and a pen type of girl.
There's also a nice little note card with envelope
in case you have a note to send out
and it also comes with this amazing Oakmoss and Amber candle
and matches to go with it
because you know when you're having
a note taking aesthetic moment,
you're not using a lighter, you're using matches.
This is just such a great thoughtful gift
for someone who loves a greatest static
and maybe is taking some notes
on the next chapter of their new life.
I love this.
Check out the details in the description down below
and everything else that Seasoned Journals
has to offer as well.
This next gift is for people who look like me.
(laughs)
This is from Honest.
This is the Pregnancy and Pampered Gift Set
and it comes with this really great tote which is awesome
and the tissue paper.
You do need to put it together for your giftee.
This is pregnant lady needs to take a minute central, okay?
First and foremost,
we've got the Me Moment Soaking Salts
because all soaking salts are about a me moment.
It also comes with the Rock The Bump Baby Butter
and Glow on Body Oil.
Okay, any oil or butter
or lotion that you give me right now,
it's going everywhere, okay?
We're not even wasting time with the dryness right now.
It's not happening.
We are trying to prevent the stretch marks honey
and again, with the name, this is the Calm Your Nip Balm.
(laughs)
Ah, just I need it.
I just need it, okay?
I don't want to talk about it, but I need it
and the Chill Mama Soothing Jelly.
I'm so excited about this because anytime I get an itch,
I'm trying so hard to avoid itching an itch.
I had a really nasty bout of the hives
one weekend early in pregnancy
and itching got me to a very bad place.
So we are trying to prevent that at all costs.
I absolutely love this.
If you happen to know someone who is pregnant,
then definitely check out Honest pregnancy pamper gift set
because I will be using all of that.
(laughs)
And my last gift suggestion
is of course, for somebody who is thinking
about how they're gonna start next year
off on the right foot,
how they're gonna start their day on their terms,
how they're gonna plan for success
and that's just to take a moment
with their Good Morning, Good Life Planner Bundle.
You can check all of that out at my store.
I'd be remiss not to mention that
because I do think planners
allow me to just take a moment from the world
and just let me brainstorm
and of course the book which is a signed copy
when you buy it with the bundle.
Everyone needs a little bit
of a morning routine in their life,
it's just about what the right one is for them
and so the book really helps to unpack that.
Links to everything will be in the description down below.
We have created a whole shopping central
for you to see all of the gifts I mentioned
and any discount codes
or anything that you can find to save a little bit of cash
this holiday season on the gifts that you're buying.
So check that out.
That's all for today.
Thank you so much for tuning in.
I appreciate it as always.
Remember, subscribe for good vibes, kiss ones you love
(lips smacking)
and go out to the life you want, cheers.
Can you see the bump?
Hopefully not.
There's just no flattering way to put that on camera
when you're sitting down, sorry.
