100: Life-Changing Hacks to Make Tech Your Personal Assistant with Amanda Jefferson
We made it to 100 episodes of Paring Down! For this milestone, I wanted a super practical episode that will change your life.
So I sat down with the incredible Tech Whisperer, Amanda Jefferson, to talk about simple, life-changing hacks that help you make technology your personal assistant (instead of your enemy).
*No apps mentioned in this episode are sponsored. But we get to the nitty gritty with exact app names, specific Alexa features, and even which buttons to push on certain set ups.
In this episode, we cover how tech can assist with:
• family shared calendars
• grocery lists
• meal planning
• travel itineraries
• time blocking
• password managing
• email reminders
• maintaining habits
• decluttering photos on your phone
This conversation will make you wonder how you ever lived without these hacks!
