Hey! Thanks for tuning in 🙂 My name is Elaine, aka “miss methodical”, and I’m interested in all things sustainability, science, technology, travel, fitness, nutrition, home, beauty, and fashion to improve the quality of life through healthy, zero-waste, & efficient practices. I try to apply a principles-based approach (instead of a rules-based one) with everything that I do. I’d like to create a community through this channel to exchange ideas on the topics we share passions in. Please join in so we can all learn together!
