Welcome to Live Well, I'm your host, Mackenzie Kappa, and on this podcast, we focus on wellness, beauty, style, planning, and life.

Basically, life is messy, and here we learn to live well anyway. So join me on this

journey as we figure it out together. And just to get us started, I'll go first. And today I'm going

down and talk with her just about journaling was an absolute blast.

And so I can't wait for you to get in on this episode as we talk about all kinds of different

methods and reasons and how-toes and supplies and all kinds of things. It's a really fun episode.

But before we get there, I do want to talk a little bit about Patreon because that is how I met

Anna. She became a patron and got really involved in the group. She started

showing up in the daily lives that I do where we talk about all kinds of different topics.

We have everything from Ask Me Anything to Talking About Fashion, to Talking About Planning and

Meal Planning and Life in General. And lately, we've had a few really fun episodes that have kind of gone off the rails.
