The discipline diaries: deep cleaning my bathrooms

Let’s be real for a second: cleaning the bathroom is my least favorite chore. Like… if I can avoid it, I will. But that’s exactly why I started this little series I call The Discipline Diaries — it’s my way of documenting the habits, tasks, and responsibilities I usually resist, but always feel better after doing.

This week’s mission? A full bathroom deep clean.

Holding Myself Accountable (With a Camera 🎥)

Something about turning the camera on makes me more likely to follow through. I’m not saying it made scrubbing the toilet fun exactly, but there’s something motivating about sharing the process — the grime, the progress, the satisfying after shots — with you. And honestly, sometimes just romanticizing the mundane helps me push through the avoidance.

If you’ve ever stared at a bathroom that desperately needs attention and thought, “Not today,” then this vlog is for you. 😅

Everything from the vlog:

Beats Studio Pro - The best noise canceling headphones, I love these for workouts too!

Swiffer Sweeper 2-in-1 Dry & Wet Mop - My go to for sweeping and mopping!

Clorox Disinfecting All-Purpose Spray - I use this in all the bathrooms!

Shark Cordless Vacuum - Literally MY FAVORITE vacuum, I love how it bends to get underneath beds and sofas.

Nightstand Lamps - found these on Amazon!

Shower Head - I love this rain shower head. Purple Pillows - These are the best pillows I've ever slept on! The Skinny Confidential - I am obsessed with Lauryn and Michael, they are such a power couple and so funny to listen to. I love the guests that they bring on their show!

The Mel Robbins Project - I'm a newer listener to her podcast but I love her episodes on life and mindset!

Not Your Typical - I LOVE Katelyn, she's my age and lives in Arizona, I love her perspective on life and fitness

A Quick Note on Discipline...

I don’t always feel motivated to do these things — actually, that’s kind of the point of this series. Discipline means doing the things you know you need to do even when you don’t want to, and documenting these small wins has been a helpful reminder that showing up counts. Even if it’s just to clean the toilet. 💪✨

If you need a little cleaning motivation or just want a peek into how I’m slowly building more intention into my routines, give this vlog a watch!
