When you’re under constant stress, your body ramps up cortisol (your main stress hormone)... Which can throw off the balance of other key hormones that matter to your sleep, focus, mood, and overall well-being. So even when life seems “fine” on the surface, your body might still be running on high alert.

I had my first colonic, so if that stuff makes you wanna barf, you're not alone. Also, stop reading this or you might want to puke. 😜

Are you stuck in “prep mode”? ​ Here’s what happens: You’ve got a goal. Maybe it’s meal prepping consistently without feeling overwhelmed. ​ So what do you do? You start planning. ​

If you’re short on time and don’t feel like thinking about dinner… this one’s a go-to. Best of all… you’ll have plenty of leftovers! Plus, who doesn’t love a good stir-fry 😋 ​ Below is the “basic” recipe, but swap in whatever veggies or protein(s) you want.

How long does it really take to build a habit? We’ve heard it all: 21 days, 30 days, 66 days, 90 days… But what if we’ve been asking the wrong question? Instead of asking how many days it takes, the real question is: 👉 How many repetitions does it take?

​​This is the perfect time for something I call Sunday Setup. ​​It’s a quick 20-minute routine that’ll help you prime your mind and schedule for the week ahead… and set you up for SUCCESS.

Most people don’t struggle with knowing what to do... ​👉 The hard part is the follow-through. ​ Here’s why following through can be so hard:

I’ve got a GREAT Mediterranean diet recipe for you today… I love it because it has a comfort-food vibe and… it’s awesome for busy weeknights when you don’t want to think too hard about dinner.

A lot of people quit on their healthy habits — not because they’re lazy, but because they’re exhausted.

I love this one. It tastes like dessert, takes 5 mins to make, and it’s secretly loaded with protein. It’s also perfect for busy days, post-workout cravings, or when you just want something fun in the freezer!

And the more decisions you have to make (even tiny ones)... The harder it gets to follow through on anything. That’s why by 4 PM, so many people feel like their willpower is nonexistent. Your brain’s just tired!

You’re lying in bed at night… and your eyes should be closed. ​ But your brain’s rehearsing tomorrow’s to-do list, replaying that weird conversation, and contemplating whether magnesium actually helps you sleep. ​ Meanwhile, your body’s like: “Let’s run a full diagnostic on every worst-case scenario we’ve ever imagined.”

Ever walk into a room and forget why you’re there? ​ Or read the same sentence 3 times and still don’t know what it said? ​ Or maybe you feel distracted, foggy—or just not like yourself? ​ If so… it might not be “in your head” at all. ​ 👉 It could be your body.

We all want to stay consistent—it’s just hard to get in a groove when your schedule is all over the place. You don’t need to do EVERYTHING to stay on track. Just start with your “anchor habit!”

Is there anything better than a warm slice of banana bread?

Last week my husband and I fasted for 69 hours. I am not a "fast-er." This was my 3rd fast in life and the longest I've ever gone. We decided in advance when we would start, with no definitive end time; we said we'd agree when we'd had enough. Honestly, while I was ready for dinner on day 3, I truly believe I could've gone longer but CAN does not mean SHOULD, right?

Do you often think you need to find a better way to “get it all done”? You are doing all the right things…

And that’s when someone right behind you says: “Take ten more steps. You can’t see it, but you’re almost at the top.”

I love these Lemon Blueberry Protein Muffins so much. They’re high in protein, naturally sweet, perfect for meal prep… and DELICIOUS

There’s a reason that your morning cup of coffee might actually be making you more tired in the long run.
