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

i am really excited because this is an episode that i actually kind of dread doing every year

because i just think i'm not that good at figuring out

gifts to give to people. I don't know. It's not one of my love languages. It's not really a super

great skill set of mine. However, I will say before you're like, why am I listening to this then?

I did have like this rare strike

of inspiration this year. And I don't know if it's just from the people that I have in my life

where I've gotten a few different ideas than I normally would or what. But I really kind of feel

this year like, oh, I kind of got it going on. I think I figured out a lot of things.

And I've actually been able to already order a lot of our Christmas presents, which I am excited about,

because a lot of that stress is already off my shoulders for Christmas.

And I actually wanted to have this episode out a couple of weeks ago so that you guys could be experiencing

the same thing. I hope you have been able to get started on your Christmas shopping so that it's

not as stressful for you either. But basically what I'm going to be doing this year is not

only creating Amazon lists, but I will also have blog posts up at mackenzie coppa.com that have these gift guides and we will be

updating them with sales and codes and all of that kind of thing as they come in. Of course,

if you have any questions for me or if you have specific things that you're like, hey, what would

be a good gift for this person? I can't promise that I'm going to get it right, but I do have some pretty

great people in the background of my life that if I ask them, they've probably got some really

good ideas. So in addition, throughout the holiday season, we will be posting things on my

Instagram because I now have that handy little linking feature that they made available to all
