If you know me, you know my whole approach to cooking and nutrition is about making food as simple as possible while also using real ingredients. To me, everything stems from how we eat– our energy, mental health, sleep, the ways we show up in life, our mood, how we feel in our bodies. It […]

Yup, we’re going there today. On a topic that I get asked soooo very often, which I guess isn’t surprising given the fact that most of you in this community are women, and women who are wanting to get more educated about their bodies, their health, and wanting to learn and feel more empowered about […]

Imagine this wild scenario: you make something delicious, and life-giving (and easy) for dinner…. and everyone at your table ACTUALLY EATS IT, your kids included.  They might love it, even. Ask for it again. Or at least, eat it without a lot of complaints 🙂 Now, did I just name your 6pm fantasy land? Wait for it: this […]

Y’all know I love good food. Real food. As much as I can get it & work it into my meals. And, I love teaching people how to live a healthier life— but here’s the key: it has to be without the all-or-nothing mentality.  And by “healthier”, just to be clear: I mean healthy physically […]

I don’t know about you, but I always need the reminder: that even during a busy day (or in the midst of a busy season in life) there ARE ways to slowly re-calibrate ourselves. That it’s not selfish or “extra” to do so— I think they’re actually necessary if you’ve got a lot on your […]

Let’s talk boundaries. They’re the most beautiful gift we can give ourselves, and also the most difficult.  Why? Because setting boundaries means putting our own emotional peace, margin, and mental health ahead of what everyone else in your life is asking of you.  ….. Which can be really, really (really!) hard. For women, I’ve noticed […]

If I had a cup of matcha for every time I said yes to something (or someone) in the past, when I really wanted to say no… ooph, I’d be swimming in a green pool. It’s a hard thing for people pleasers (both active and recovering) everywhere. Right? You’re having a busy week and someone […]

One of the questions I get asked the most is about productivity. Maybe it’s that I’m now a mom of 2, running a business, creating my art in the kitchen to share, cooking for my family multiple times a week, and squeezing in those daily moments of self-care whenever I can, that makes people assume […]

I have a little secret for you today. The key to healthy meals isn’t buying the most expensive organic produce or luxury meal delivery kits. It’s not spending hours prepping to plan your meals for the week or ONLY eating certain foods. Nope. The key to eating healthy is knowing how to cook in a […]

So, one of the biggest MYTHS around eating healthy is that it has to cost a ton of money. That it means only shopping at expensive grocery stores, or buying specialty brands.  And while those do exist (and they can be helpful for finding certain items easier), I’m a full believer that you can find […]

There have been so many times through the years where I couldn’t let go of an extreme all or nothing approach to so many aspects of life. School, work, food, exercise, being a good wife/mom/daughter/friend— you name it. Maybe you’ve felt that same temptation come sneaking in that says, If you can’t do X perfectly, […]

So, today I want to talk SLEEP. Why? Because we live in this always-on, always-up, always plugged-in world… and it can really take it’s toll  on us, even if we don’t realize. This past year, especially so, where there’s never been more screen time, more time at home, and more reasons than ever that we […]
