While the wellness world is shouting “More protein! More protein!”  I’m sneaking in with a friendly reminder that can have just as big of an impact on your health…maybe even more. A reminder to eat more fiber.  Fiber does more than you probably think. Most women get around half of what’s actually recommended daily. And

For years, I thought the point of exercise was to burn calories. That was the whole game. Work out enough, burn enough, and eventually my body would finally look the way I wanted it to. Sound familiar? If you grew up in the 80s, 90s, or 2000s, this was basically the air we breathed. We

If you’ve ever stepped out of bed in the morning and felt that sharp, achy feeling in your heel or the bottom of your foot, this one’s for you. Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel and foot pain, especially for women in midlife. It happens when the thick band of

A few years ago, I found myself frustrated. My energy was low, my clothes weren’t fitting the way they used to, and I genuinely couldn’t figure out why. When my doctor asked if anything had changed, I said no. Nothing had changed. I was working out regularly, eating well, and cooking at home. I felt

Summer is officially here and I am so ready for it! Long days, slower mornings, a little more sunshine…there’s something about this season that just invites us to breathe a little deeper and enjoy life more.  And over the years, I’ve landed on a handful of products that genuinely help me feel my best all

As I looked in the mirror this morning, I pulled my neck skin up to the side to see what it would look like with a little lift.  It seems like I woke up one day and all of a sudden my neck skin started to sag! Didn’t I just graduate college, get married and

After last week’s deep thoughts on what’s real and what’s fake in the fitness world, we’re keeping this week’s Wellness Wednesday light and fun. 🙂 Here are a few things I’ve been loving, using and learning lately that you might be interested in too…. Loving: One thing I’ve realized as I get older and find

I was scrolling Instagram a few weeks ago when I came across a video that stopped me mid-scroll. A woman in her 60s, with gorgeous silver hair, was giving fitness advice from her bathroom while getting ready for the day. She felt inspiring, relatable and real.  After watching a few seconds of her video, I

Confession: I eat the same foods on repeat and it’s actually one of my biggest hacks to eating well.  Somewhere along the way we got the idea that we need to change up our meals every day in order to be healthy.  It’s why most diets and meal plans are challenging – cooking a new

My team and I love reading your responses to these Wellness Wednesday emails. And lately, a theme keeps showing up in your replies that I can’t stop thinking about. It sounds something like this: “I’m doing everything right. I’m moving my body, eating well, trying to show up for myself. And I still don’t feel

Somewhere between the dugout, the carpool line, and a long week of zoom calls, I realized something had to give. Not the sports or the busy-ness of this season – just my approach to keeping everyone well fed without losing my mind. 😄 If your spring looks anything like mine right now (packed schedules, travel,

Someone asked me recently which health tests I’d recommend for women who want a clearer picture of their health. And almost before I could answer, she followed up with: “I started looking into it online… and now I have a list of 47 things I’m apparently supposed to do.” I get the overwhelm! Between social
