#266 - How to Lazy Genius a Summer at the Pool Jun 13, 2022

Show notes

First, there’s a different strategy when you’re visiting the pool once or twice versus going to the pool again and again. If you’re going as a guest, you pack your bag with towels and snacks and whatever you or your kids need for the day, you go, you have fun, and you come home. One-off experiences are generally a little more forgiving. It’s the repeated ones that can be a bit frustrating.

This episode is going to be focused on spending multiple days a week or basically spending the summer at the pool. There will be some great tips for people who only go once or twice or maybe go to the beach or just summer outings in general, but the focus here is going to the pool again and again.

Show notes

We just launched The Lazy Genius Kitchen into the world, and it became a New York Times bestseller which is so much fun and I’m so grateful. I often get asked, especially by aspiring or professional authors “how do you get on The New York Times?” I get asked enough to spend a few minutes on it today for this little bonus episode.

#262 Answers to The Magic Question That Paid Off May 16, 2022

Show notes

The Magic Question is what can I do now to make something easier later? The smaller the something, the easier the solution. When you ask the magic question, you usually get a pretty quick win. When you get in the habit of asking that question and then noticing how even the simplest answers can positively impact your day and your time and your energy and your attitude, you want to keep asking! It’s a great question.

#261 - The Recipe Decoder May 09, 2022

Show notes

In my book that released last week, The Lazy Genius Kitchen, I shared something kind of revolutionary. A cooking formula that could change how you approach recipes forever. It’s called The Liquid Index, and it is your recipe decoder. It’s kind of a big deal, big enough that I want to spend an entire episode on it today.

#260 - Let’s Lazy Genius Your Kitchen May 02, 2022

Show notes

Last week I shared part one of The Lazy Genius Kitchen where I teach the five steps, and today I want to apply those five steps to a few specific areas of the kitchen, just like I do in part two of the book! Now today, I’m not using any material from part two of the book; I’m not repeating what’s in there. What I am doing is taking specific problems that you all have and applying the five Lazy Genius steps to those problems to see if we can find some solutions.
