A Gutsy Girl’s Holiday Wish List for 2024 is here!
My holiday list this year is really nothing like I’ve done in the past.
The past several years all the things on my list were related to gut health and/or gut healing.
I simply wanted to have more fun this year.
We could all use this, yes?!
“
I felt like making a list that contained all the things I truly do have my personal list.
So if you’re ready for something lighter, more fun and inspiring….then here you go!
However, if you’re still looking for my top gut health and/or gut healing picks, you will find them at the bottom of this page.
Hope you find something below to add to your own Wish List this year!

My husband got one of these a long time ago, and he uses it religiously.
With all my day-dreaming through note taking, I really want one, too!

The only tablet that feels like paper.
SOME BASICS
While some items on this list are higher priced, these aren’t.
- Compression socks – I love weighted blankets and anything that puts pressure on my body. These will help in the feet + calves department. I feel like I’m ageing myself; am I?!
- Reading light – I’m trying to do less scrolling at night, and more reading. And yes, if you’re going to buy me this light, I need it in this green color. It’s my absolute favorite!
- Mad Hippie – I fell in love with Mad Hippie this past year. The top 4 products of theirs I use daily include: Vitamin C Toning Mist + Triple C Night Cream + Cream Cleanser + Vitamin C Serum for Face. But honestly, I want to try more!
HEADPHONES
So I’ve used the little Apple buds for years. I’m tired of them.
I need something that cancels noise better and doesn’t feel like they are flopping all around when I’m trying to workout.
Note: I actually just went ahead and bought these as an early Holiday gift for myself. And yes, I love them!
Beats Studio Pro
LOUD AND CLEAR – Voice-targeting mics precisely filter background noise for crisp, clear call performance.
HEARTH DISPLAY
This one is for all of you out there who, like me, are trying to manage multiple schedules on any given day.
Between the business, personal life, and kids, there are so many things.
The Hearth Display makes it all super visible and on display.
You know, so I stop dropping all the balls!
Hearth Display
This might be one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a long time. My husband is actually the one who found it and said we need it. So I’m going with it!
MORE OF THE BASICS
I like getting things I’ll actually use and love. And if you do, too, then here are some more.
- Neck and Back Massager – This one also provides the warmth. It’s like an all-in-one massage meets warmth that I crave.
- Arm Warmers – Have I told you how cold I am all the time?
- Silk Eye Mask – My 8-year-old uses an eye mask (unicorn, BTW!) every single night. She can’t sleep without it, and if we can’t find one of her approximately 300, it’s meltdown city. I thought I’d see what the craze was all about! Besides, in 2025 I’m looking to maximize my sleep even more.
- Reusable Makeup Removers – The reason I love these so much is not only that they are reusable, but also I love the feel of them. At the end of the day, it’s another soothing way to prepare for bed.
- Red Light Therapy – I’ve been wanting to try this for a very long time. [Note: I’m debating between this one featured and the LUMEBOX, if anyone has any thoughts?!]
- The Art of Mixology: Mocktails – I rarely drink anymore (thank GOD for that!), so I thought an inspiring book like this could be helpful for the next phase of this journey. Also, I love the art and design of the book.
Walking Pad
I actually bought THIS walking pad in late 2023, and I love it. It sits up in our loft, and it super minimal + accessible.
I’ve also heard THESE walking pads are great.
Walking at home, made easy
THE BIG KAHUNA
Everyone needs one massive item on their list, right?!
Well this is mine. Digital creativity is my jam since I produce so much content for A Gutsy Girl, as well as so many other spaces.
I already have a MacBook Air, but when I can visually see things in huge display, it makes the creativity come alive even more.
So, why not?!
Apple 2023 iMac All-in-One Desktop Computer
I do love the simplicity of the white one, but that green color just gives me life. p.s. I’ve found over the years that I need as much space as possible, so the 512GB would be ideal.
In Case You Still Want the Gut Health + Gut Healing Recommendations!
Finally, I will share with you some of my top picks for gut health + gut healing.
Because I’m practical, and because I know that everyone targets their health and wellness goals come January 1st.
You can get a head start on your goals by asking Santa for some of this.
To make it simple, I’ll break it down by type, sharing just three things from each category.
WHAT’S GOING ON WITH ME?
These three things can jumpstart your process for understanding, “What’s going on with me?”
- Gut Healing Journaling System – You want to personalize everything for you? My gut healing journaling SYSTEM will take you from where you are today to where you want to be, and it will help you understand how and why. If you want to see the differences between the 28-day vs 90-day journals, you can see that HERE.
- Viome Gut Microbiome Test – What does your unique gut microbiome look like? And what are the foods + supplements you can take to maximize it? This test will tell you. [And yes, I have taken my own.] [By using code AGUTSYGIRL at checkout you will save big on your own testing kit.]
- FoodMarble AIRE Device – Maybe the question should be, “Which foods can I eat and feel confident about eating?” This is a hydrogen + methane breath device that you can use at home to understand more about what foods might be affecting you and ultimately if you’re presenting symptoms of SIBO. [And yes, I have this device.] [Use code GUTSYG at checkout to save an automatic 15% off the device +/or FODMAP program.]
WHAT SHOULD I EAT?
Always the MAIN QUESTION when trying to reduce bloat and weight, and feel better, right?!
These three things are staples:
- A Gutsy Girl’s Bible: a 21-day approach to healing the gut – This is my signature book which breaks everything down for you plus includes 100+ food Creations to help you with ideas galore.
- Thrive Market Membership – I order from Thrive Market about 2 times per month. You might have access to the best grocery stores (we don’t even have a grocery store where I live), but even still – the prices can’t be beat when your order from Thrive Market. Plus, it’s delivered right to your doorsteps.
- Wild Pastures – It’s no secret that I believe meat is vital in helping us heal. However, it’s also no secret that I believe where you get your meat matters. Wild Pastures provides some of the highest-quality meats out there. [Get 20% off every box for life HERE.]
WHICH SUPPLEMENTS ARE BEST?
Obviously mine 🙂 Buuuuuut……there are many others.
As the founder of Gutby[me], I have done extensive and intensive research on supplements for several years now, and these are some of my fave places online to get yours.
- Gutbyo[me] – This is my own line, and we only focus on GUT supplements. I take and use these daily. And obviously swear by them (or I wouldn’t give them to friends and family.) [Use code AGUTSYGIRL at checkout to save 15%.]
- Fullscript Online Dispensary – Pretty much anything and everything you’re looking for and/or your doctor has recommended can be found here. I also have lists of supplements, broken down by need (i.e. SIBO, women’s health, autoimmune, candida, IBS-bloating, and more!) [Once you’re signed up, I’ll increase your savings to 20%. After you make your first purchase, I’ll increase your savings to 25% for life.]
- Just Thrive Health – I’ve worked with this brand for years. I know, love, and trust them. In addition to their suite of products, I will say that the probiotic is the one we use daily. [Use code AGUTSYGIRL at checkout to save 15%]
HOW ABOUT A NATURAL HOME?
Over the years, I’ve gotten really serious about this one!
With all the toxins present in our everyday lives, these are some ways to mitigate the effects – at home.
- AromaTru – This sits right next to my side of the bed. It’s calming, and flows incredible (non-toxic) scents through the air. [I have one of these.] [You’ll always save 30% with THIS link.]
- AirDoctor – We have one of these, but will be investing in at least a couple more. When we don’t have it running, everyone in the house can tell. They are, truly, priceless. [Use THIS link to save $300 off your air purifier.]
- AquaTru – We have this counter water filter, but I’m looking to get the AquaTru Under Sink so we have a dedicated faucet to allow us to fill up pots, pans, and water bottles with ease. [Use THIS link to save $150 off your water filter.]
ANY OTHER LIFESTYLE THINGS?
I could talk about lifestyle as it relates to optimal wellness 24/7.
It’s the one pillar in my 3 Pillars for Ultimate Gut Healing that we all will work on/towards for the rest of our lives.
Honestly? It’s the most important pillar.
- Chopra Ayurveda Course – I began this course because I wanted to understand even more about lifestyle. And I’ll be honest – it’s incredible. I’m obsessed, and look forward to each new week when new material is released. [Use code: AGUTSYGIRL at checkout to save 25% (on the Ayurveda &/or any other class!)]
- LMNT Electrolytes – The reason I love these so much is that they have helped me replace most coffee in my mornings while also given that boost of electrolytes first thing in the morning. And besides, the Chocolate Medley is back (just for the season), so you should stock up. They are delicious. [Click THIS link to get your FREE sampler pack (only pay for shipping)]
- Electric Kettle – I keep this on my counter, and use it daily. In an instant, with the push of a button, I can heat up water for my morning LMNT + hot water and/or hot water with lemon routines.
HOW CAN I PUT IT ALL TOGETHER?
My goal for YOU and doing MY JOB in helping you reach them is to share how to put it all together.
These are the top 3 ways I can do so for 2025:
- Quick Gut Detox – One (minimal) fee, lifetime access. You’ll have access to my book, A Gutsy Girl’s Bible, the journaling SYSTEM, my personal 10-day detox and an entire 21-day Quick Gut Detox (complete with a meal plan and grocery lists). There is no discount for this one because it’s already priced lower than almost every other plan out there, while giving far more value.
- Your Pocket Belly BFF – This is something brand new we just added. It is what it says, a ‘pocket belly BFF.’ Essentially, it’s 1-on-1 private coaching through voice and text messaging – at your fingertips, when you need it. Full access on your time starts now. [Purchase the 1-Week OR 1-Month plan and get your choice of the Ahara Dinacharya OR Healing Blooms from Within journaling SYSTEM for free. At checkout, simply use code ‘BFF’]
- Gut Healing: ELEVATED – This is my all-encompassing course. With this course you’re getting everything from the Quick Gut Detox + all lifestyle elements and a 4-week personal calendar for going through the course material. Just a one-time fee, lifetime access.
Still looking for even more ideas?
I dropped all of these + many more on my Amazon Holiday 2024 Wish List.
I hope you have a wonderful holiday season!
While I loathe the Minnesota winters, I love November and December….spending time with family and friends.
I hope you find yourself in the same place.
p.s. EXPLORE is my one word for 2025. If you want some 2025 inspiration, I’ve been compiling it HERE.
Xox,
