30 Day Shift… Spring Clean Your Mind, Body, and Soul
What Can You Do in 30 Days… As a fitness and nutrition coach, especially this time of year, I’m often asked, “How can I get it together in time for summer?” I have two answers. First, release yourself of the stress of “getting it together” in time for summer. There’s no rule that says we have to get it together. Society puts too much pressure on having a “bikini body” for summer. Want a bikini body for summer? Put a bikini on your body. Enjoy your summer. Goal achieved. Second, focus on daily habits that create an achievable lifestyle and help you to achieve both short and long term results…

February Love Your Body Wellness Challenge
If I asked you to name 50 things you love… how long would it take for you to say “myself”? One of my favorite challenges I run annually is our February Love Your Body, Love Yourself, Self-Love challenge. A 4 week immersion into self-love, daily affirmations and journaling, a book club, and a month long focus on making ourselves a priority.

We may carry a little regret from spending too much or indulging too much over the holidays, and our need to prioritize…

Thai Peanut Zoodle Bowl
I’ve been on a cooking kick lately. Not just the same old staples. But adding in a lot of variety and yummy, exotic flavors too. And all in less than 30 min. Ain’t nobody got time for being in the kitchen all day. Last week I was craving curry. So I made a yummy chicken curry chickpea cauliflower stew. It was heavenly and Anniston, my 5 year old, loved it too. Yesterday I meal prepped zucchini, toasted quinoa, and tomato egg muffins for breakfasts for the week. They have not disappointed. Today spicy Thai peanut noodle bowl. Only I didn’t have noodles. But I did have zucchini. Today’s zoodle bowl…
