Mmm, this transitionary period between summer and fall. Bittersweet in so many ways– but beautiful, too. I’m a summer girl at my core, and yet once fall makes its way in, I always feel this internal shift that is so needed. A shift toward comfort, toward groundedness, and towards efficiency. I don’t like saying goodbye […]

If you’ve been around for a while, you know it: Living the  Simply Real Health LIFE is about so much more than food. It’s about creating a life that feels alive and vibrant. And meaningful, in the ways that matter to you. And most of all, simple. So that you feel a sense of ease […]

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.

So many people think that eating healthy is expensive. And yes, it can be, if you’re paying for all the fancy schmancy pre-packaged foods with all the fun marketing over the front (and health claims, of course). Or produce that is exotic or isn’t in season (always way more $$$). But the truth is this: […]

I can *never* get enough of summer. The extra sunshine. The longer days. The beach trips. The walks with flowers blooming all around. The bustling trips to the farmer’s market. The FOOD. Oh, the food. That alone makes me giddy once we start inching away from the soggy spring in the PNW and getting closer […]

So, one of the biggest MYTHS around eating healthy is that it has to cost a ton of money.

So, I don’t know about you, but I used to go into the New Year with these huge, overhauled goals for how I was going to change my routines and up my efficiency. Can you relate to that one? I figured you might. But, here’s the thing: that has really changed for me over the […]

As you guys know, having little mini rituals in my day is a huge part of my life (and how I stay sane as I switch between mama mode to ceo mode to creative mode to solo/ myself mode, back into mama mode, and then wife/partner mode every single day). From my morning matcha to […]

I GOTTA SAY….. the name of the game in 2020 has been efficiency. Now maaaaaybe more than ever, even. And I don’t just mean efficiency in that way of “get more work done in less time with more ease and less stress” kinda thing. (Though, I’ve had my moments with that kind of efficiency FOR […]
