Hey mama, just a heads-up—some of the links on this blog are affiliate links, meaning if you click and buy, I may earn a small commission (at no extra cost to you). Think of it as tossing a few coins into my coffee fund—because let’s be honest, caffeine is the only thing keeping me functional enough to write these posts.

Welcome to “Jacki Says What” – Real Talk for Real Women

Hey there, and welcome to Jacki Says What! If you’ve landed here while scrolling aimlessly on your phone, ignoring that load of laundry you swore you’d fold yesterday, or wondering how your car became a traveling dumpster, then congrats—you’ve found your people.

I’m Jacki—38 years old, just a normal woman trying to get through life without completely losing my mind. I’m not an influencer, a wellness guru, or someone who has their entire life together. I’m just like you—figuring it out one workday, grocery run, and gas station coffee at a time. If you’re here for luxury trends, thousand-dollar skincare routines, or the latest Botox recommendations, I hate to break it to you, but… wrong blog. Jacki Says What is for the women who are too tired to keep up with all that, the ones who just want affordable self-care, beauty products that actually work, and maybe a few laughs along the way.

This is a space for the real women of the world—the ones running on caffeine and willpower, wearing the same leggings three days in a row because they’re comfortable, and wondering why their bank account and energy levels are always running on empty. If you’re looking for honesty, humor, and a little help finding the best drugstore concealer to fake eight hours of sleep, you’re in the right place.

So grab your beverage of choice (coffee, wine, or straight-up survival mode), kick back, and let’s navigate this beautifully chaotic, budget-conscious, “doing our best” kind of life together. Welcome to Jacki Says What—where we embrace the chaos, laugh at the nonsense, and keep it as real as that mess in the backseat of your car.
