Episode 9: Exceptional holiday gift ideas

Hello High Wire Women:
The most common question I’ve received in the last couple days is “do you have your Christmas shopping done?” I always laugh because one of my favorite hobbies is shopping. Some may even say I have my Ph.D. in shopping. 
My love language is gifting. And I have to say, gifting for women is SO much easier than men. Men are so one-dimensional—you can buy them clothes, cologne, socks and that’s it. Now women—that’s a totally different ball game.
So today I’ll share some of my Favorite gifts for the people in your life!
Give an international experience!
Our friends at Air BNB have recently started to offer amazing online experiences. You can sign up for a pasta making class from Italy, a tarot card reading from Spain. There are a ton of them and they are cheap (generally less than $20 a person) and are so many options. My law firm is doing a Coffee Masterclass from Mexico, where we’ll learn the science of a perfect cup of coffee, make one and enjoy our time together on Zoom! I’m also doing a “walking tour” of Venice with a native Italian for the holidays with my family in Canada.

Grow your indoor garden
Like many people this year, I really enjoyed my outdoor flower garden. I spent so much time planting, weeding and enjoying the beauty of my flowers. Since I live in Buffalo, I am missing my flowers and plants so much! Not to worry! I recently found a really cool Hydroponic Garden on Amazon and bought one for my home and one for the office. It’s a great little system that grows herbs with lighting. It’s incredible and so fun to watch. We are well on our way to a great Caprese salad from our hydroponic garden that is growing basil for us in December!
Ring light
Everyone and their brother are spending time in front of a camera these days. Enter the Selfie Ring Light. This little darling clips to your laptop, iphone or tablet and provides professional level lighting. It will enhance your image and smooth your wrinkles on camera! This one comes with a rechargeable battery. 
Herban Essentials
Stand back Oprah—these babies were my favorite things long before they hit your list!!! Herban Essentials are hand wipes made of essential oils. They come in lavender, lemon, orange, peppermint and eucalyptus. They are AMAZING and will make you so happy when you wipe down your keyboard, steering wheel and iphone. Trust me—once you use these, you won’t be able to stop! They are perfect for travel!
