| 0:00.0 | If you're pregnant postpartum or planning to be, or you've got a friend in that season, listen |
| 0:04.3 | up. There's a lot in motherhood that we can't control, but your nutrition, that's a powerful |
| 0:08.9 | place to start. That's why I've been raving about the company needed. I wish I'd had needed |
| 0:13.8 | when I was in that chapter. Their starter plan is a total game changer, a comprehensive prenatal |
| 0:19.4 | multi, plus the high quality omega-3 designed to meet |
| 0:22.7 | the real nutritional demands of pregnancy and beyond. It's not the bare minimum stuff that most |
| 0:27.3 | prenatals offer. This is optimal evidence-based nourishment that actually supports mom and baby. |
| 0:32.9 | Trusted by over 6,000 women's health practitioners from midwives to obese, they're raising the bar for women's |
| 0:38.6 | wellness. And personally, because I'm out of the prenatal and postpartum, I love their women's |
| 0:43.6 | omega-3, collagen, and stress support. They have an entire section for women's health supplements |

| 0:53.1 | head over to this is needed.com and use code minimalist for 20% off your first order. That's T-H-I-S-I-S-N-E-D-D-com and use |

| 1:11.0 | on to Mr. Penn. Mr. Penn has everything you need for Bible journaling. Think beautiful journaling |
| 1:16.0 | Bibles, no bleed Bible pens, and highlighters that actually work on those super thin Bible pages, |
| 1:21.8 | adorable Bible tabs, faith journals, and more. Seriously, these pens don't smudge, smear, |
| 1:26.4 | or soak through, which has been a |
| 1:27.9 | total game changer. And if you're a parent, they've got amazing school supplies, too. I love that |
| 1:33.7 | Mr. Penn was started by Christian teachers down in Louisiana, and they have over 100,000 five-star |
