The question I get asked most
The question I get asked most is "Do you actually use that?"
Yes. It sits next to the sink, and I use it most mornings while the kettle heats up. I like how it smells, and I like that it takes about a minute.
What's something you use every day that people are always surprised by?
Describe when and how you use it. Leave out what it does for your body or your bank account.

Use this as a starting point and swap in your own details.
- What question do people ask you about what you use?
- Where in your home does it live?
One reader’s version: People always ask me if I really use the planner I talk about. I do. It lives in my work bag, and I fill it in every Sunday night with a cup of tea. What do you use every day that surprises people?
Story idea
Where it lives
Take a quick photo or clip of the spot in your home where you keep something you use often. No close up of the label needed. Add a poll sticker: "Do you keep yours in the same spot?"
Showing where something fits in your day says more than a product shot.

- What spot in your home would you be happy to show?
- What would your poll question be?
One reader’s version: A clip of the bathroom shelf with the morning light coming in, and a poll that says "Shelf or drawer?"

The plain answer
Hey [name]! Thanks for asking about that. I just like using it, and I can tell you how I use it if that helps. Is there something specific you're curious about?
Answer the question they asked, then stop. If they want more, they'll ask.

One reader’s version: Hi Lauren! Thanks for asking. I use it in my coffee most mornings and I like the taste. Happy to tell you more if you want.
