Wow, just wow. Says she has a husband and two children. Not a mention of them in this so called daily routine! Poor buggers. (Seems to be from The Times.)

Meanwhile back in the real world some of us are just happy we remembered to put on deodorant and ate some fruit today!😆

BruceAndNosh · 29/03/2025 20:00

When does she see her 2 children?

Pedallleur · 29/03/2025 20:03

There was someone some years ago who claimed she lived by sunlight. No food or water just sun. Cba looking at YouTube at these charlatans. I presume she is peddling that stuff in the pic? Is her husband/partner something in finance?

At last I have got something right! She says her bedroom is ‘cold’ at 18 degrees to aid sleep - I live in an old, cold house and we regard 18 as tropical!

Me too. Do you think The Times would like me to write a piece about my bedtime hacks? My best one is that I save time by putting the kettle on to boil for my hot water bottle and then running down to my icy bathroom to brush my teeth.

What the point of living to 120if you have to spend it doing nothing but eating organic broccoli and sticking red lights up your nose?

I have a crappy cold today, clean underwear felt like an achievement.

They also went on about 'grounding' bedsheets which kept them in tune with the earth's natural rhythms (or something. It was beyond me.)

Mind blowing crap 🤯

How did she conceive them? Perhaps she outsourced that.

Nothing beats Tom Hollander’s daily routine: https://www.thepoke.com/2020/10/05/tom-hollanders-brilliant-a-life-in-the-day-might-be-best-one-ever/

‘I wake up generally at 4 or 5am. Not because I am like Margaret Thatcher, but because I need to pee. I per in the half light using my phone to illuminate the target…’ And it goes on from there! Sorry no Times share token.

ChompandaGrazia · 29/03/2025 20:36

A cynical person might think that this was an attempt by some no mark ‘celebrity’ to get talked about outside their bubble.

I don't know, I think Tom Baker's might just about top it, though I suspect Tom Hollander's might be a bit more closely based on reality.

I imagined her walking barefoot in the garden and stepping in a pile of fox poo. Also eating uncooked meat as she allowed no time to cook it.

Not sure how she claims to be working in 90 minute bursts as she seems to be up to something else every hour from 9am: The perfect ADHD schedule!

Kurokurosuke · 29/03/2025 21:28

9am break time?!? She’s hadn’t done anything except take vitamins and wash her face in various ways. Which took 4 hours. I can get that done in 4 minutes.

Onafp · 29/03/2025 21:32

Good grief ...

SpringIsSpringing25 · 29/03/2025 21:37

I just can't...
But I've enjoyed reading your comments on the thread😊

FixTheBone · 29/03/2025 21:44

It reads like Christian Bale's opening monologue from American Psycho....

"My name is Patrick Bateman. I'm 27 years old. I believe in taking care of myself and a balanced diet and rigorous exercise routine. In the morning if my face is a little puffy I'll put on an ice pack while doing stomach crunches. I can do 1000 now. After I remove the ice pack I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb-mint facial mask which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion.

There is an idea of a Patrick Bateman; some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me: only an entity, something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable... I simply am not there."

No mention of her children or husband at all. All I I I..!

Who is this woman?

TheCurious0range · 29/03/2025 23:41

Also her eyes wouldn't be puffy if she didn't get up at 5am to take supplements and do all manner of things to her skin

MrsWinslowsSoothingSyrup · 29/03/2025 23:49

Bloody hell she needs a lot of stuff every couple of hours just to 'focus'. Sounds like she needs glasses.

Plus, I wonder if she realises how much crap is in supplements? She could just eat a cornflakes and a banana for the same effect.

marsaline · 29/03/2025 23:52

I’ve seen her on instagram. She’s American. She looks very different in photos to the way she looks when she talks in videos.

she mainly does clips with a gua sha or facial cupping. I suspect she earns a fair bit from it.
