Curating a life of purpose, one essential at a time.
Hi there! I’m Jordan Miller, the founder and curator behind Best Goods for Good Life.
Based in the vibrant heart of Austin, Texas, I’ve spent the last decade navigating the fast-paced world of tech and digital productivity. But like many of you, I eventually realized that “being busy” isn’t the same as “living well.”
I discovered that the secret to a high-quality life often hides in the details: the ergonomic chair that saves your back during a long workday, the cast-iron skillet that makes Sunday brunch a ritual, or the smart home gadget that finally gives you ten minutes of peace.
My Philosophy: The “Life-ROI”
I’m a self-confessed optimization geek. I don’t just look for “cheap” or “luxury”—I look for High Lifestyle ROI.
Every product featured on this site has been put through my personal “Good Life Test”:
- Does it solve a real problem? (Efficiency)
- Is it built to last? (Sustainability)
- Does it bring a spark of joy to the daily routine? (Aesthetics)
Why Trust Best Goods for Good Life?
In an era of endless scrolling and fake reviews, I wanted to create a sanctuary of honesty.
- Hands-On Research: I spend hours diving into technical specs, user feedback, and long-term durability tests.
- Curation over Collection: I don’t recommend everything—only the absolute best. If it’s on this site, it’s because it’s something I would (and often do) use in my own home.
- Amazon Expertise: As a long-time Amazon power user, I know how to spot the hidden gems and avoid the over-hyped duds.
Beyond the Spreadsheet
When I’m not testing the latest smart-kitchen gadgets or comparing organic cotton sheets, you can find me practicing yoga at a local studio, exploring Austin’s trail system, or experimenting with new sourdough recipes.
I believe that a good life is built on a foundation of smart choices. I’m here to help you make yours.
Let’s make every day a little better, together.
