🎒 Everyday Carry / Lifestyle
Not everything needs to survive a 100-miler. These are the daily items I actually use — tested through work travel, school runs, and normal life.
Tech & Productivity
Apple AirPods Pro 2
Noise cancellation for open-office focus. Transparency mode for school pickup. They live in my pocket. Also solid for audiobook listening during runs if you don't want over-ear.

Charges a laptop. USB-C PD. This travels with me on every flight and lives in my bag for conference days. One full charge is 4+ phone charges. Heavy, but that's the tradeoff for not hunting outlets.

Peak Design Travel Backpack 45L
Carry-on sized, opens like a suitcase, packing cubes snap in magnetically. I've done 5-day work trips with just this bag. The laptop compartment is accessible without opening the main compartment — clutch for TSA.

Compression cubes that pair with the backpack above. Medium cube holds 4 days of clothes compressed flat. Color-coded so you can grab the right one without digging.

The Common Rule — Justin Earley
This book changed my morning routine. The "Scripture before phone" habit alone is worth the read. Practical daily and weekly habits grounded in faith. I reference it constantly.
