If you’ve followed me for a while now, you’ve likely noticed that my job is anything but conventional. No, I am not parked in a cubical from 9 to 5. My day-to-day can look glamorous to some, between exciting photo shoots and amazing adventures but the truth of the matter is there are A LOT of moving parts and plenty of organization is required to be a content creator. Especially if you want to be successful! Here are my top tips to stay productive with organization.
Stay Productive With Organization
In the last year especially I have learned a lot about what it takes to stay efficient and I’ve mastered some tricks to stay productive during those long work days and overwhelming weeks. I think many of these tips are transferable to anyone, in any industry, so I’ve shared my top three with you today!
MEAL PREPPING
aka Meal Organization….
I’ve gotten into the habit of meal prepping every Sunday and Wednesday night. It’s a great way to ensure I’m getting nutritious and delicious homemade meals regardless of my weekday schedule. Every Sunday morning I head to my local Fred Meyers for a week’s worth of fresh ingredients and spend the evening prepping and portioning out my lunches and snacks. I always keep a week’s worth of Bai Bubbles chilling in my fridge as well! With just 5 calories and no artificial sweeteners, these bold fruit flavor drinks are a great, low sugar go-to for a guilt-free drink!

LISTS
AKA Life/Work Organization
From grocery lists, to to-do lists, to shot lists, it’s safe to say I love my LISTS, LISTS, LISTS, LISTS! I always keep a notebook and pen with me, in my bag, by my desk and by my bedside table. Keeping on top of any list takes the guessing work out of my schedule. And is there any better feeling than crossing a task off a list? I think not!
Exhibit A:
ME TIME!
AKA Mental Organization
Every week I schedule ME TIME for myself. Especially being in the social media space, I’ve realized just how important it is to unplug every now and then. Whether it be an early morning workout, a bubble bath, a good book, a relaxing stroll, or challenging hike, I try to use those moments to clear my mind. Doing so makes me all the more productive during the workday! Everyone needs that release. And everyone needs to stop and sip on something sweet! Enter the perfect solution of Bai Bubbles.
Currently, crushing on the Gimbi Pink Grapefruit and Bogota Blackberry Lime flavors. What are your tips to stay productive with organization?

Meal prepping makes such a difference in my week! Just one less thing to have to think about day to day.
