Description
Whether you're a morning person or not, this one's for you! No one talks about it much but Jenn found it for us, scientifically, what happens to make us wake up, why we're more groggy some days and a bit of the body's biology upon waking. From there, Jenn translates it all into how we can design our perfect mornings. As much as there's a checklist, Jenn advises us to think about it more like a menu. Offering us the categories we want to hit and options for each, it's all here! Jenn shares her morning routine and asks the question: What's required for your daily on-ramp?
