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.

Hey Reader, Let’s talk about a little habit so many of us have—rewarding ourselves with food. You crush a workout? Treat yourself. Stick to healthy eating all week? Time to indulge.
