What a week! We went to NY for 5 days to visit my family, so Dave has definitely been initiated now. We had a really great time, and spent most of it with Matthew accompanying us. It was his 10th birthday, which means it’s also the 10th anniversary of my sister’s death. Matthew’s birth seems …
Starting at the end of last week, I had this “rot gut” feeling in my stomach—kind of like a hangover, but not the kind that leads to throwing up. So I wouldn’t call it nausea, it’s just… rot gut. For several days, I tried to eat bland things like eggs to address it. Then. I …
I’ve been trying to figure out ways to add more coconut oil to my diet. Since I’m pregnant, I’m a bit hyper-focused on nutrients and food. I’m not being obsessive about it, but I’m paying close attention and really trying to incorporate certain key foods. I’ll address that directly soon with a list, but right …

I know, I know. You just found out yesterday that I’m pregnant, and I’m already posting an update! Well, I’ve known for quite some time that I’m pregnant… and I have to let some of this info out! Also, this week was my first midwife appointment, so we got to see the little girl/guy and …
As a wellness coach, I have a big responsibility to respect people’s privacy. In fact, I’m like a vault. I am honored when people, whether they are clients or friends, share personal information with me. I tell no one. Not even my husband. (Yep, that’s right, I got married). The thing is, I’m terrible at …
A while ago, Pear Sports sent me a heart rate monitor and earphones, and I downloaded their app on my iPhone 4S. I took a few days to browse the workout options and picked the ones I wanted to do first. Basically, I began with the Calibration Workout, which is a 20-minute workout that …
The following post is sponsored by FitFluential LLC on behalf of PUMA. The shoes and clothes were free, but the opinions are my own and the workout is from me too. If you know me at all, you probably know I love/hate stairs workouts… I love them because they’re short, and I hate them because …
My favorite salads have three main characteristics: 1. Not too much lettuce (if any at all) 2. Small mostly uniformly sized pieces (including lettuce size) 3. Enough dressing (evenly coating the contents) I often use a mezzaluna to make my salads perfect, but when I don’t use lettuce (like this one) I just chop everything …
No one I know really loves cauliflower in its natural state—it’s ok, crunchy and dip-able, even alright steamed with butter…but not really amazing. Making pizza crust is my top choice for cauli, but cauli rice definitely takes a close second place. I served it to Kristen (cousin) and Dave (boyfriend) on Saturday, and after I …
