7 JUL 2025 · In this episode of the Joyfully Managed Life podcast, Jessica Eastman Stewart presents her practical system for organizing a growing collection of recipes that eliminates the chaos of cluttered cookbooks and endless digital scrolling. Jessica uses a low-tech and straightforward approach, consisting of a simple 1.5-inch binder. Untested recipes are stored separately, and once tried, they get recycled or permanently added to the binder based on family reviews. Jessica uses this organized binder every weekend for meal planning and occasionally introduces new recipes for variety. She ends the episode with an additional tip on saving recipes from social media using the Reminders app and invites listeners to share their favorite recipes.

6 JUL 2025 · In this episode of the Joyfully Managed Life podcast, host Jessica Eastman Stewart shares a tip about maximizing flight time that she learned from her friend, Carrie. The tip is to download free samples of books from the Kindle store before a flight, then read the first few chapters of several books during the trip. This allows a person to gain new insights, explore fresh perspectives, and make informed decisions on which books are worth buying and continuing to read. Additionally, Jessica provided some of her personal book recommendations, which can be found in the show notes for this episode. She encourages listeners to try this method during their next flight and share their feedback.

4 JUL 2025 · In this episode of the Joyfully Managed Life podcast, Jessica Eastman Stewart introduces an effective technique she's used to reduce her mobile phone usage -- switching to grayscale mode. Grayscale mode makes a phone less appealing and minimizes the urge to scroll through social media or binge-watch series. Jessica explains how to set it up on iPhones and on Android devices using the built-in settings or automation routines. An additional strategy is the use of the Minimalist app that turns the screen to grayscale and includes a timer that limits usage of addictive apps. This episode encourages listeners to break free from unnecessary phone usage through these innovative ideas, promoting a more joyfully managed life.
