As the cofounder and chief brand officer of the oh-so-cool luggage company Away, Jen Rubio is always on the move. But with a suitcase packed with travel-ready essentials, her a.m. start is pretty much the same whether she’s in Budapest or at home in New York.

Becoming a morning person

“One good thing about traveling so much is that I’ve grown accustomed to being awake at odd times-and thanks to this, I’m a morning person! I usually wake up at 6 a.m., regardless of the time zone.”

I'm right on top of that, Rose!

Devising my game plan

“I wish I could say that I always meditate or take a moment to write down my intentions for the day, but the truth is that I reach for my phone first thing. It helps me feel more prepared by cataloging what I need to tackle.”

Sneaking in a sweat session

“I thrive off the energy and direction of a trainer or class, but that’s tough with my schedule. When I’m home, I use the Mirror, which has been game-changing. (I can take short classes here and there without ever leaving my place!) When I’m on the road, I do ModelFit streaming-which is a platform with videos of my favorite workout class in New York-or use the Glo app for mobile yoga and pilates classes."

Smoothing my skin

“After I shower, my routine is pretty simple: five drops of Vintner’s Daughter on my face, and if I need extra hydration, a lightweight Tata Harper moisturizer. Day to day, I don’t wear much more than mascara.”

Getting a morning buzz

“I’m not a breakfast person, but I usually kick off the day with a matcha latte with almond milk. T2’s Matcha Flask has become my new favorite travel companion. There’s a tiny, stainless steel whisk on the inside of the top, so when I’m on flights, I just ask for hot water, mix in some matcha (CAP Beauty’s matcha sticks are so easy to travel with), shake, and I can have a matcha no matter where I am.”

Setting the mood

“I love to burn a candle while I’m getting ready. I pack a mini version of my favorite, Diptyque Tubereuse. The calming, familiar scent grounds me no matter where I am in the world.”
