Economy -> First Class
|
Hey Reader, Would you like to take your packing list from economy to first class? Of course you would! But before we get into that, I wanted to remind you all that I am running the HPL Annual Reader Survey right now. It would be extremely helpful for me to know a bit more about you. And, since I've been stuck in bed sick for the past week, I've extended the deadline for the $30 Amazon Gift Card drawing to February 9th! Now, onto the packing list...Economy vs First Class Packing ListEconomy List: Good enough to get you there, but not very comfortable. There may be duplicates and extras thrown into the mix, and not much has been evaluated with care and attention. First Class List: Feels refined, simple, yet robust. You may have included fewer things on your packing list, but those things are higher value (not necessarily by monetary value) and chosen because they make an impact. If you had to choose, I'm sure most everyone would choose a First Class Packing List. So...Why are so many people stuck in economy?One big reason... They don't have the right tools. ⚒️ And I'm not just talking about physical tools here. Tools that take your packing list from economy to first class can be skills, frameworks, methods, and systems. All of which I have been creating for you here at Her Packing List. For example: 🛠️ My Baggage Freedom Express masterclass is based on my signature HPL Packing Method. 🛠️ I've created a list of 7 Packing Light Principles (learn 3 inside the Carry-on-only Crash Course and all 7 inside Baggage Freedom Express). 🛠️ The Packing Refinery is based on my S.M.A.R.T. packing framework. The very S.M.A.R.T. packing framework that can elevate your packing list.Take your packing list from economy → first class with The Packing Refinery!Once you've gotten to your economy level packing list... You simply run it through the S.M.A.R.T. packing framework. The Packing Refinery gives you a lens for examining the finer details of your list with a bit more guidance, and a lot more logic. So that you'll end up with a first class level packing list that makes you feel polished and put together with less bulk and clutter. Sound nice?
Happy packing, |

Hey Reader, Over a decade ago, I started experimenting with a plant-based diet. During that time, my main concern was, "How the heck do I make anything?" You know… like cake. 🧁 How do I make cake without eggs? Being without animal products felt like a huge limitation with cooking and baking. Until it wasn't. Because when I actually started diving into all of those plant-based recipes, I realized there were SO MANY alternative ways to make delicious tasting treats that I never knew before....
Hey Reader, Have you always thought that reaching carry-on only would automatically equal light luggage? ...only to find you still can't lift your bag easily or move around comfortably? Friend, you are not alone. There's no doubt that traveling with carry-on luggage instead of checked bags is a massive improvement. But here's the part most people don't talk about: Carry-on luggage is still a lot of stuff. Your carry-on can hold up to 45L.Your personal item can easily be another 20L. Fill...
Hey Reader, When I think back to how packing used to be for me… Before I learned how to ultralight pack… 💡 I can only compare the change to a light switch going on in my brain. Even though I had been on a downward trajectory in luggage size for years, that last big leap into leaving with just a 12L messenger bag for weeks truly changed everything. There was a very clear BEFORE and AFTER. That change was so profound, I often end up describing it as if I: Started operating on a different...
