Today’s issue is short — because some days, your energy is shorter.

If your brain’s foggy, your body’s glitchy, and your attention span is holding on by a string cheese… this one’s for you.

One truth. One food win. One moment of clarity. That’s it.
Let’s go.

🧠 1 Hard Truth:

  • Microwave it.

  • Add hot sauce.

  • Fold it in half and call it a “wrap” if you want to feel fancy.
