My husband and I work from home so for me it's essential to have the desk to my perfection. He has his desk in whatever way he wants, lol. I must have flowers, a good lamp. All my notebooks and planners at good reach. I am crazy about anything involved with stationary. Good flowing music, fresh/healthy snacks, plenty to drink. Of course a cute mug and above all, a super comfortable chair!!
greenorangeviolet Yes, totally agree. Sometimes when I'm having trouble sleeping I scroll down her feed, press auto play and am able to fall asleep to her caking voice. 😴
Love this! Almost everything you mention is a must have for work life for me; loft tops are everything, staple clothing items that mix and match well, essential oils! Another office must is plants for me (No light friendly plants) they just make it feel so much brighter in there. I also have a small salt lamp on my desk and I have a similar pair of digital protection glasses I bought off Amazon, love them! I have noticed a huge decrease in the number of headaches I've had. A final must is a favorite coffee mug in my snack drawer (also take mine very seriously!)
My BIGGEST tip for young professionals who hate getting up in the morning is to pull your outfit the night before. This literally changed my life since over half of my time in the morning was trying to decide what to wear. I even pull underwear, socks, shoes the night before. Game changer.
I remember you talking about your work shirts and it made me buy lots of dresses to use as my work uniform. Im a medical practitioner and I would say my essentials are: water, a good not-skipping pen, my agenda, and I like to have my office with at least a plant, they cheer me up! I bought a small cacti in a mug and it sits next to my pen holder and it makes me so happy to turn around and watch it :) ps: You look gorgeous as always!
Hi Ashley! I've been using Edens Garden EO for over two years and I'm very impressed with the quality. My favorites are their cleaning blend, which I use in a spray bottle in the kitchen, cedar wood and camphor oils which I use in my closet on sachets, and their lavender, peppermint, and sweet orange oils which I use in the diffuser. They also have a "thieves" style blend that I dilute in avocado oil and use topically on cuts and scratches. They are so affordable, but the quality is excellent.
So many of these items just went on my Christmas list (both as wants and as gift ideas)! I love my Plantronics Back Beat Sense headphones. Their best feature is that they pause your music/book/podcast when you take them off your ears so if a coworker walks by to ask a question I don't need to fumble with my phone or laptop to pause.
the portable diffuser is really neat! i will have to show my husband for the car. I have a tray with a bunch of tea items on it in my office including fun loose leaf strainers. cute and makes me feel more productive having something home like
I couldn't agree more about audiobooks! I commute on the subway in NYC and a lot of time you can't get a seat and can't pull out a book so audiobooks are fantastic for commuting, walking around the city and at my desk! And podcasts are great too!
Ooh, I love the travel diffuser. I work in speech therapy and have clients who have sensory aversions to scents so I can't have any at work. Having them in the car going to and from work would be great!
These are not just work essential. The tips and products provided are imperative to your health if your working in an office. Thank you for providing this information 😊
You have the cutest accessories! I work from home so it is hard to set up a calming space, but it is my goal to eventually have a desktop computer and a really nice work space.
omg! I love the diffuser! I work in a lab and it has all kinds of smells. my coworkers would love this! and the lava beads are a perfect gift idea! thanks for posting!
Ashley I absolutely love this! I think plants and succulents are essentials in my office. I just relocated to a huge office and need to decorate so badly. But I really want to make it my own! Any shops that have cool artwork or anything would be awesome to hear about! My office also has a fireplace (not working) but allows for a cute little seating nook. Need to add some personality but the bones are there! Would love more videos like this!! 😊
Yes, we need to hear about the snack drawer for real! I try to be good but always end up with junk food - and on busy days that might be the only lunch I have!
Wowwwwww!!! Now I'm inspired, I felt amazing thinking about what we're capable to do with the right amount of inspiration and organization, and you're the perfect example for that. Thank you so much for sharing and caring!
I'm a nurse, although we have portable computers to chart, were mostly on our feet for the 12 hours. Essentials: coffee (uplifting drink for me since I'm pregnant these days), large water bottle, lunch, very comfortable shoes (dansko clogs!), compression socks or stockings and my Nivea tin lotion! I love your channel! You have such great practical and cute tips!
You are so lovely. My work essentials are my bullet journal, where I keep track of all my tasks, and a bag of raw almonds, for those times I'm losing focus because I'm so hungry but am too busy to eat!
I definitely have a "uniform" that I wear most work days when when we're not shooting videos! Jeans & a t-shirt :) It saves time & stress! Those flats from DSW are really cute!! Also love that you have your diffuser by your computer / work space! I do the same... Lavender is my go-to!
These are random, but my work essentials are my Himalayan salt lamp, which gives off the prettiest glow and is healthy for you too! I must have my lip balm with me and a good hand lotion since I live in Denver and it is so dry here! I love my sharpie pens; I need them!! And my timer for my Pomodoros. Last but not least I love my neti stik by Himalayan institute. It's an aromatherapy inhaler that is so energizing. It smells so good. I travel with it too!
Great video, Ashley! I'm obsessed with gear that makes my working mama life any bit easier. For work I have a bunch of different work/mom bags I rotate through, and I'm currently using my Lo & Sons OMG bag, which took a while to break in. But the bags that work the best for me are by Ju-Ju-Be, which technically is a diaper bag company, but their bags have so much storage and organization that they're great as workbags; they also come in great print options. And then I'm always cold at work so I keep a Nordstrom-brand pashmina at my desk (it's a great Christmas gift to ask for) and it keeps me warm when the AC is turned up too high. They're also great for airplane rides and movie theaters. Lastly, I had to stop using earbuds because coworkers could never see that I was plugged in and would come up and talk to me all the time, not realizing I couldn't hear them. (I work in a newsroom - so open-floor plan, super loud and distracting.) Thankfully, my husband works for an audio company, so I have an awesome pair of JBL deejay headphones that are gigantic - like Princess-Leia-bun-gigantic. And then he just got me a pair of more streamlined, super chic wireless Harman headphones that I'd never be able to afford on my own. The sound-quality of both brands beats Beats by Dre (not that I'm biased).
I absolutely loved this video. You are my favorite youtuber and have been since I found your videos few years ago. I am so happy that you make videos. You are so relatable. Thank you for always showing things that are attainable and not extremely expensive. It makes such a difference. I love your lifestyle videos. I think you are truly special. xx Diane
Ashley, your videos are my favorite. You have such a calming down to earth vibe and I love everything you recommend! Keep up the good work. I get excited when a new video pops up in my subscriptions. You and Allison Anderson have a very similar calming vibe to your videos. You guys should collab!
While commuting the things I keep with myself are : (and keep in mind that I use public transportation and sometimes stand while travelling for up to 1,5h in Serbia) wallet, keys, phone, hand cream, umbrella when needed, tissues, external phone battery, usb and cotton bag for groceries when I commute back to home. For me it's important to keep things as light as possible. ^^
Loved this! So many great options, sent one of those links directly to my boyfriend as a nudge for a birthday gift! Haha. Some of my work essentials- snack drawer! I keep granola bars and peanut butter to-go packs. Also, I have a mugs with fun gold pens, binder clips, and one with chapsticks and lipglosses on my desk.
You motivated me to start my diffused with my orange doterra oils! Thank you.. feeling better already. I work from home 4 days a week and go into the office 1 day. Thank you for this video!
My job is almost 100% sitting down and not with a lot of breaks. I'm going to try so many of your tips from the standing up one to the essential oils one. You're the most informative and useful TH-camr I watch. Keep the planner videos coming too as I'm getting my first Inkwell one and would love some more tips! Love your videos! 💕
OMG I loved the theme of this video. After 15 years, I have found myself in a new career and am struggling to make my new space feel familiar and home like. More videos like this would be awesome, like what's in your snack drawer...
High-five for audio books and data entry! That was my life a few years ago too! I would choose books by genre and number of hours. The longer the better to get my money's worth and get me through the day 😆
My work essentials include luxurious hand cream ( I like Helping Hands by LUSH) to deal with all the paper-cuts, and a comfy blanket scarf because it's always freezing! Love your videos Ashley :) I'd love to hear about the Outlook tips and tricks in David Allen's book
I love this video, my favorite kind to watch. All your essentials are great and I love that they are affordable. I had to follow almost all of your links.
I thought of you last night at target- My Beloved and I were out shopping and I saw a bundle of 3 notebooks by Rifle Paper Company. (I bought the same cell phone cover you have- I adore their patterns!)
Oooh.. that lava bracelet is so pretty and practical! I work in a room with no windows, so having a little plant really helps to bring my cube to life :) I loved this video, great tips :)
I am a professor- but first I am a mom. I make everyone breakfast and dinner so I don't really have freedom with those meals because I have to consider everyone else's taste. Because of this I treat lunch like a gourmet extravaganza. I have a beautiful lunch box and a heavy duty thermos and every night I make myself an amazing lunch for the next day. It is so satisfying!
I just purchased the Lava Triangle II necklace from LavaEssentials because of your video! I've seen you mention your bracelet in other videos and was planning on trying it out, but the necklace hooked me.
Hi Ashley! I have several of edens garden oils and oil blends and I am very happy with them! They are very affordable and come in different sizes so you can purchase what best fits your needs. They also sell sets that are either customizable or preselected and are a little more affordable than buying the oils individually! Lovely video, I have recently switched jobs so this was a helpful video for me to think about other essentials I can incorporate into my workspace!
Okay, I really loved this video, but this comment is more about you! I love watching you so much! You are so calm and well spoken, but it doesn't seem scripted or at all fake. You're a natural on camera! :D
I just stumbled on your channel and I just wanted to quickly say everything you do sings to my heart! I love that everything you talk about is so practical and even your thumbnails are so clean and polished I just love it! You clearly put a lot into your channel, and I will be recommending you to other youtube junkies!
Hi Ashley, it was interesting to hear about your work. The way you filmed this video was very smooth and calming. It sounds like you really enjoy your job and your work environment. Looking forward to your favorites video!
I am shocked that you have 50000 subscribers. You deserve way more! Keep doing what you do the way you do it because you're so unique and amazing. There's no youtuber that could replace you for me!
Julie Quates have you ever used DoTerra? Do they smell similar? I've only used DoTerra & a store brand that smelled awful. If I could find something that smelled as pure but was a bit cheaper I would love that.
What a great video! Some of my essentials are nice pens and post its, having a battery pack, and my apple watch. Thank you for all the recommendations. I've made a wish list in my Passion Planner!
I just love all of your videos! They are so well put together and classy. I also work in an office most of the week with a day or two being my home office days, and have been looking for a new laptop bag! The one you suggest is beautiful! Thanks for being so inspiring xo
Eden's Garden is my go-to brand of EOs! I started off with Young Living oils, but fell off the wagon as I was in college at the time and couldn't afford the hefty price tag. Eden's Garden has been a god send! The purity, quality, and customer service of Eden's Garden is on par with Young Living. I don't take EOs internally, as I don't think that's wise, so I can't speak to any differences I noticed there. From my experience diffusing and using them topically, however, I say try them out! My work essentials are my Longchamp Large Le Pliage, my Inkwell Press planner, a tube of Weleda skin food, and lots of snacks. :) I definitely have my eye on a Dagne Dover mini tote, though!
I just bought a pair of glasses (with your link ;) ) and I am super intrigued! I wear contacts but I work remotely (thus I'm on the computer most of the time) so this might be exactly what I need. I am excited to give them a shot, thanks so much for sharing!
I have been using Eden's Garden oil for two years or more. I LOVE them. They ship really fast and are fantastic. My favorite oil right now is sage. So good.
Love using essential oils! But I did have a couple coworkers who were sensitive :/ anyways you gotta check out BC Essentials out of Newburyport Ma. Her stuff is amazing!!! I've never smelled better oil combos. She has one called "escape" that is so lovely. It's a vanilla lavender scent. Also one called "Autumn" and "cinfully vanilla" which are great picks for fall/winter!! You won't be sorry you checked this local (to me) company out ;)
I absolutely love your videos - you always have such beautiful and unique suggestions. Thank you for sharing - I'm pinning quite a few from your downbar!
I do data entry as well but we're not allowed to have earbuds in at work since the phones are always ringing and face-to-face communication is a constant. I'm so jealous of you D: My office essential is lotion! I always have hand lotion at my desk because it gets chilly at work and I cannot stand it when my hands are dry. It's also nice to give myself a hand massage after all the typing that I do.
I saw this video of yours about a month ago and instantly fell in love with the bag (and everything else you mentioned lol) and my parents so graciously gifted me a dagney dover for Christmas and Im already obsessed. Currently packing it while rewetting this video because Im crazy lol
Have you tried the overdrive app? I don't know how many libraries are on there, but it is a free app that you sign into your library just using your library card and pin. you can borrow audio books and e-books. When it is due and can't be renewed anymore no need to worry about returning it on time since it will just be removed from your app. I've gotten through a lot that way for free.
This was an awesome video Ashley ! love the diffuser and am going to check it out on Etsy. I carry a personal size planner ( Kate Spade's Wellesley ) I also love your beautiful, clean Filofax. So professional looking! Loved all of your "essentials" ! And yes....You are very relaxing to listen to. You should read books for Audible !
I always find something very interesting from your videos! I will look for these glasses, they are really cute and useful! I also love organisation like you! :)
Those shoes! Need them. :) I'm in grad school right now, but my commute/work/school essential is definitely my Swell water bottle. I originally got it because it was cute (let's be honest), but it stays cold all day and I've never had a water bottle do that before.
!! I bought one of the Sip by Swell bottles at Target, and I am amazed at how well they work! I'd love an actual Swell one (love the shape). Which color/pattern do you have? The rose gold one is 😍.
Do you pack a lunch for work? It doesn't look like it would fit your bag and I'm constantly searching for a practical way to take lunch to work, especially since I take public transportation.
Great video! You are my all time favorite TH-camr, girl. 😉 I have a friend that LOVES the Eden's Garden essential oils. I want to try some soon myself!
Thank you for your reviews! Love all the products you shared and even have several. I really like the suggestion of the aromatherapy jewelry. Genius for the workplace.
Oh my goodness when I heard you say you're looking into Eden's Garden I got super excited! I absolutely love them! I personally like them better than doterra and young living. I also really enjoy that the company is owned and ran by women in the US.
I've been loving your work related videos, you always have such great tips! Those glasses seem amazing, I could use those. I spend way too much time looking at a screen. Thanks!
hello, I am a fairly new subscriber. just wanted to let you know that you have really great content and the editing is really great. very clean. keep up the great work!
My husband and I work from home so for me it's essential to have the desk to my perfection. He has his desk in whatever way he wants, lol. I must have flowers, a good lamp. All my notebooks and planners at good reach. I am crazy about anything involved with stationary. Good flowing music, fresh/healthy snacks, plenty to drink. Of course a cute mug and above all, a super comfortable chair!!
you have the most calming manner of anyone on youtube
greenorangeviolet agreed! They are so relaxing. 😌
greenorangeviolet Yes, totally agree. Sometimes when I'm having trouble sleeping I scroll down her feed, press auto play and am able to fall asleep to her caking voice. 😴
Agreed!!
Thank you all so much! I appreciate the kind words. : )
It's so great to finally find a youtuber who has an office job - much more relatable :)
Love this! Almost everything you mention is a must have for work life for me; loft tops are everything, staple clothing items that mix and match well, essential oils! Another office must is plants for me (No light friendly plants) they just make it feel so much brighter in there. I also have a small salt lamp on my desk and I have a similar pair of digital protection glasses I bought off Amazon, love them! I have noticed a huge decrease in the number of headaches I've had. A final must is a favorite coffee mug in my snack drawer (also take mine very seriously!)
My BIGGEST tip for young professionals who hate getting up in the morning is to pull your outfit the night before. This literally changed my life since over half of my time in the morning was trying to decide what to wear. I even pull underwear, socks, shoes the night before. Game changer.

Hi Ashley! I've been using Edens Garden EO for over two years and I'm very impressed with the quality. My favorites are their cleaning blend, which I use in a spray bottle in the kitchen, cedar wood and camphor oils which I use in my closet on sachets, and their lavender, peppermint, and sweet orange oils which I use in the diffuser. They also have a "thieves" style blend that I dilute in avocado oil and use topically on cuts and scratches. They are so affordable, but the quality is excellent.
So many of these items just went on my Christmas list (both as wants and as gift ideas)! I love my Plantronics Back Beat Sense headphones. Their best feature is that they pause your music/book/podcast when you take them off your ears so if a coworker walks by to ask a question I don't need to fumble with my phone or laptop to pause.
the portable diffuser is really neat! i will have to show my husband for the car. I have a tray with a bunch of tea items on it in my office including fun loose leaf strainers. cute and makes me feel more productive having something home like

Snack drawer video!
Ok! I'll try to fit the snack drawer into a video. :D
Woman! where have you been my whole work like? this video is so organize and precise and usefull. subscribed!
Wowwwwww!!! Now I'm inspired, I felt amazing thinking about what we're capable to do with the right amount of inspiration and organization, and you're the perfect example for that. Thank you so much for sharing and caring!
I'd love to hear what podcasts you're listening to! I work from home as a jewelry designer/maker, so I go through so many podcasts!
I'm a nurse, although we have portable computers to chart, were mostly on our feet for the 12 hours. Essentials: coffee (uplifting drink for me since I'm pregnant these days), large water bottle, lunch, very comfortable shoes (dansko clogs!), compression socks or stockings and my Nivea tin lotion! I love your channel! You have such great practical and cute tips!
there s something about you... you look so genuine! am loving!
You are so lovely. My work essentials are my bullet journal, where I keep track of all my tasks, and a bag of raw almonds, for those times I'm losing focus because I'm so hungry but am too busy to eat!
I definitely have a "uniform" that I wear most work days when when we're not shooting videos! Jeans & a t-shirt :) It saves time & stress! Those flats from DSW are really cute!! Also love that you have your diffuser by your computer / work space! I do the same... Lavender is my go-to!
These are random, but my work essentials are my Himalayan salt lamp, which gives off the prettiest glow and is healthy for you too! I must have my lip balm with me and a good hand lotion since I live in Denver and it is so dry here! I love my sharpie pens; I need them!! And my timer for my Pomodoros. Last but not least I love my neti stik by Himalayan institute. It's an aromatherapy inhaler that is so energizing. It smells so good. I travel with it too!
Great video, Ashley! I'm obsessed with gear that makes my working mama life any bit easier. For work I have a bunch of different work/mom bags I rotate through, and I'm currently using my Lo & Sons OMG bag, which took a while to break in. But the bags that work the best for me are by Ju-Ju-Be, which technically is a diaper bag company, but their bags have so much storage and organization that they're great as workbags; they also come in great print options. And then I'm always cold at work so I keep a Nordstrom-brand pashmina at my desk (it's a great Christmas gift to ask for) and it keeps me warm when the AC is turned up too high. They're also great for airplane rides and movie theaters. Lastly, I had to stop using earbuds because coworkers could never see that I was plugged in and would come up and talk to me all the time, not realizing I couldn't hear them. (I work in a newsroom - so open-floor plan, super loud and distracting.) Thankfully, my husband works for an audio company, so I have an awesome pair of JBL deejay headphones that are gigantic - like Princess-Leia-bun-gigantic. And then he just got me a pair of more streamlined, super chic wireless Harman headphones that I'd never be able to afford on my own. The sound-quality of both brands beats Beats by Dre (not that I'm biased).

Apple Watches do the same thing with the stand time. It's so great to be reminded throughout the day!
Love your outfits! They are very tasteful and match your skin tone and hair color!
OMG I loved the theme of this video. After 15 years, I have found myself in a new career and am struggling to make my new space feel familiar and home like. More videos like this would be awesome, like what's in your snack drawer...

From a fellow office worker, I LOVED this video Ash! Thank you for sharing!
I am shocked that you have 50000 subscribers. You deserve way more! Keep doing what you do the way you do it because you're so unique and amazing. There's no youtuber that could replace you for me!
So many good suggestions!! Which style of the glasses did you get? They look so great on you!
Meditation by Edens Garden is my favorite!!! Love the little lava beads.
And just ordered the diffuser with another EG oil, Uplift for my SIL's birthday. Great gift. And adore your videos!
Julie Quates have you ever used DoTerra? Do they smell similar? I've only used DoTerra & a store brand that smelled awful. If I could find something that smelled as pure but was a bit cheaper I would love that.
Marissa Dodgen hi, I've never used doterra. But I'm sure they are about the same. If you're just going for smell plant therapy has some nice ones
What a great video! Some of my essentials are nice pens and post its, having a battery pack, and my apple watch.
Thank you for all the recommendations. I've made a wish list in my Passion Planner!

I love everything about this video! The whole time I was saying, "OO, I need, need, need!!" Yassss!
I love my hobonichi planner at work and I always have a stash of my favourite tea :)

So happy to read all the positive Eden's Garden reviews!! And, yes, Skin Food is such a good work essential. :D
I love this video! It's like you are reading my work mind! I find that I need a hand lotion and balm near by also.
I just bought a pair of glasses (with your link ;) ) and I am super intrigued! I wear contacts but I work remotely (thus I'm on the computer most of the time) so this might be exactly what I need. I am excited to give them a shot, thanks so much for sharing!
Love the idea of the Fitbit and the walking reminder. Your videos are always so relaxing to watch :)
I have been using Eden's Garden oil for two years or more. I LOVE them. They ship really fast and are fantastic. My favorite oil right now is sage. So good.
So happy to read that! I'm building my wish list now - can't wait to order. : ))
Your voice is so soothing. Great tips as well!
lobservateur83 I agree. Her videos always mellow me out a bit.
Love using essential oils! But I did have a couple coworkers who were sensitive :/ anyways you gotta check out BC Essentials out of Newburyport Ma. Her stuff is amazing!!! I've never smelled better oil combos. She has one called "escape" that is so lovely. It's a vanilla lavender scent. Also one called "Autumn" and "cinfully vanilla" which are great picks for fall/winter!! You won't be sorry you checked this local (to me) company out ;)
Eden's garden is my favorite essential oil brand! Super affordable and amazing quality!!
I found bullet journaling and love it. I use One Note in conjunction with it.
This is the best video I've seen in a good while
I absolutely love your videos - you always have such beautiful and unique suggestions. Thank you for sharing - I'm pinning quite a few from your downbar!
I do data entry as well but we're not allowed to have earbuds in at work since the phones are always ringing and face-to-face communication is a constant. I'm so jealous of you D:
My office essential is lotion! I always have hand lotion at my desk because it gets chilly at work and I cannot stand it when my hands are dry. It's also nice to give myself a hand massage after all the typing that I do.
great video! About to enter the workforce and this has definitely helped give me an idea of how to prepare
Ashley, I order the Eden's Garden essential oils on Amazon and they are great! Highly recommend.
I saw this video of yours about a month ago and instantly fell in love with the bag (and everything else you mentioned lol) and my parents so graciously gifted me a dagney dover for Christmas and Im already obsessed. Currently packing it while rewetting this video because Im crazy lol
I have some tea bags I leave at work with a mug from home. It makes me feel like I'm chilling at home.
Have you tried the overdrive app? I don't know how many libraries are on there, but it is a free app that you sign into your library just using your library card and pin. you can borrow audio books and e-books. When it is due and can't be renewed anymore no need to worry about returning it on time since it will just be removed from your app. I've gotten through a lot that way for free.
Can you do a video on car essentials? I'd love to see the little accessories that you use in your car.
This was an awesome video Ashley ! love the diffuser and am going to check it out on Etsy. I carry a personal size planner ( Kate Spade's Wellesley ) I also love your beautiful, clean Filofax. So professional looking! Loved all of your "essentials" ! And yes....You are very relaxing to listen to. You should read books for Audible !
eyebuydirect is my favorite online glasses shop!
Haha! I've been curious about your job for a while so I was happy to hear a hint of what you do!
I definitely need those glasses!
First video of yours I saw!! I love your style. You definitely got a fan here. Keep on doing what you’re doing.
Omg, super cute flats 💜
I listen to audiobooks all the time too! Check out OverDrive. It's an app and you can borrow audiobooks from your library. I personally love it!
I always find something very interesting from your videos! I will look for these glasses, they are really cute and useful! I also love organisation like you! :)
Why are your videos always so perfect?
Please tell about your snack drawer! It's always good to get new ideas for healthy snacks to keep at work!
Those shoes! Need them. :) I'm in grad school right now, but my commute/work/school essential is definitely my Swell water bottle. I originally got it because it was cute (let's be honest), but it stays cold all day and I've never had a water bottle do that before.
!! I bought one of the Sip by Swell bottles at Target, and I am amazed at how well they work! I'd love an actual Swell one (love the shape). Which color/pattern do you have? The rose gold one is 😍.
Do you pack a lunch for work? It doesn't look like it would fit your bag and I'm constantly searching for a practical way to take lunch to work, especially since I take public transportation.
I use the OverDrive App for my audio books! It links to your library card. I've listen to over 200 books!!!
Great video! You are my all time favorite TH-camr, girl. 😉 I have a friend that LOVES the Eden's Garden essential oils. I want to try some soon myself!
Love this video!!! I want to know about your snack drawer!!!
Thank you for your reviews! Love all the products you shared and even have several. I really like the suggestion of the aromatherapy jewelry. Genius for the workplace.
Oh my goodness when I heard you say you're looking into Eden's Garden I got super excited! I absolutely love them! I personally like them better than doterra and young living. I also really enjoy that the company is owned and ran by women in the US.
What podcasts are your favorite also can you share your top fave oil scents in the description?
I love this video! I'm a nurse so I don't get to keep cute stuff like this at work since I don't even have an office so I'm really jealous!
I love my favorite pens, my coffee mug and my planner, I have a Filofax just like yours! Lovely video as always Ashley~
I've been loving your work related videos, you always have such great tips! Those glasses seem amazing, I could use those. I spend way too much time looking at a screen. Thanks!
I would LOVE to hear about your snack drawer. This video was so great :)
Audible is addictive!!!! Love this!
