Hey Reader, I try to do all the right things when it comes to my health—most of the time. But like so many women, sometimes it just doesn’t feel like enough. There are always those couple of stubborn pounds that refuse to budge. When that happens, I take a hard look at what I’m actually doing every day. Lately? My biggest culprits are sitting too much and too many sourdough treats.🫣 Yes, I work out five days a week, but then I spend hours at my desk. And let’s just say my recent sourdough obsession—after years of avoiding gluten—hasn’t been doing me any favors. So, I’m making two simple shifts: cutting back on the sourdough and adding in more walking. Walking is truly one of the best things we can do for ourselves—physically and mentally. I absolutely love getting outside, listening to the birds, and breathing in the fresh air. It’s amazing what a difference it makes. Feeling the need to reset, too? Whether it’s cutting back on an indulgence or adding in more movement, small tweaks can have a huge impact.

I was in my networking group recently, listening to a speaker talk about brain health and aging. She mentioned something that stopped me for a moment—there are more than 50 different kinds of dementia, and Alzheimer’s is just one of them. But what stayed with me even more than the number was what came next. She talked about how much our day-to-day choices matter over time.Nutrition.Movement.Sleep.Stress.Mindset.Lifestyle. Not in a rigid or perfect way—but in the way small, repeated habits...
Hi Reader, When I first started learning how food impacts hormone balance, I thought I had to completely overhaul my kitchen—and my life. Not so. Hormone-smart eating doesn’t have to be complicated, I promise. Some of the most powerful changes I’ve made came from simple shifts: Adding protein to breakfast instead of reaching for a muffin or just coffee Swapping processed snacks for real, whole food alternatives Making sure I get healthy fats like avocado or olive oil with lunch or dinner...
