Sooo many questions have come in lately about one of my (secret) FAV topics: natural deodorant. Why make the switch? How do you make the switch (and not feel gross/smelly the whole way)? Perfect timing, too, for two reasons: 1. I just got in my latest shipment of the best natural deodorant EVER (not kidding, […]

You guys always LOVE these Thrive Market hauls (even though I don’t really understand it)… but I am always happy to share them and what’s going on over here grocery wise. I get asked sooo many questions about what brands I love from Thrive, what I make sure to order each time and what I […]

This last week has been a big one, in many ways. I’ve spent so much time listening, reading, learning, digging in, reshaping, breathing and praying for true healing. I’ve felt my eyes opening and my mind growing in so many ways. And to honor that, I’ve spent most of the past week quiet over here. […]

Mmmmmkay. Let’s talk getting sweaty. (One of my fav things to talk about, tbh.) I know, like I KNOW, this time has been a mix of the full range of emotions. One second we’re like: I’m going to do all the things! I got this! And the next, it’s easy to feel bombarded by the […]

Welp. When things shift, we gotta shift with it. If there’s been ONE thing that’s been a theme for me over here this past year and a half, it’s been that exactly.  Of being able to go with the flow. Pivot, and adjust. Switch things up without clinging on hard to what you’ve always done. […]

Oooo-wee, this post has been a LONG time coming. If I had a dollar for every email or DM saying things like, “But my husband won’t touch anything with kale!” or “Uh-huh, well MY family refuses to eat that kind of stuff” I could buy like, 7 Pelotons. I hear you, friend. And I know […]

Earlier this week, someone asked me a question on my weekly Q + A on instagram. She said, “Ok, how to deal with weight gain during this quarantine from comfort eating & drinking?” If you have spent a lot of time in a gym or any time at all bodybuilders, you have probably heard of […]

How are you doing? Like, really? I know it feels a little crazy out there right now.  We all feel it.  And today, I just kept thinking one thing: that its OK to feel all of these feelings….AND, in the same breath: to keep searching for daily little joys and finding the light. It’s an […]

If you’re feeling all the feelings that I know are swirling from the unknown that is covid-19, I hear you. It’s hard. In my own time at home with my little fam during “social distancing” though, I’m choosing to trust in this. To trust God and the universe, that they’ve got us. That we will […]

All this talk about business lately has me thinking about GOALS. And how to approach them like all other things in my business and in life– with grace and ease and intentionality. Hey, don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with BIG goals and going for your dreams. I think it’s actually a nonnegotiable of […]

Note: This is probably the longest post I have ever, ever written, so I turned into a little series. On starting, creating and building this little business known as Simply Real Health. The real, un-edited version. Haven’t caught up yet? Start here, with Part 1 right here, Part 2 here, and Part 3 here first, for […]

This is Part 3 of a full series this month, taking you behind-the-scenes of building and creating a business & doing what you love: the ups, the downs, the tears & the real real. Yes, I tell this story every year, because every year there is more to share and tell and show you, especially […]
