Hi there, you're listening to the Lazy Genius Podcast. I am Kendra Adachi and I'm here to help you be

a genius about the things that matter and lazy about the things that don't. Today is one of my favorite

episodes we do every quarter or so on what's saving my life. You all like it too because it always
