Jenna’s Favorite Things (Gifting Edition)
Cyber Week is here, and I’m channeling my inner Oprah this year with a special edition of Jenna’s Favorite Things! But instead of cars and extravagant gifts, this list is filled with items I genuinely love, use, and trust—perfect for busy parents like us who need a little holiday shopping inspiration.
The Road to 40: Becoming the Best Version of Myself
This milestone birthday feels like a pivotal moment-almost like a fresh chapter (it is a new decade of life after all), where I’ve been striving to become the healthiest and happiest version of myself.

If you’re ready to say yes to more joy, peace, and abundance in your closet then you’ll want to read this post.
