Happy Hour

I’m curious- isn’t LMNT a lot of sodium? 1 gram sounds like too much? There is a lot of misinofrmation and dated information out there about sodium. The source of sodium matters and there are a lot of benefits to getting adequate sodium in the diet because it is an essential mineral. Sodium consumed in the modern diet (highly processed foods and packaged foods) is the problem not the mineral … [Read more...]

My Journey to Becoming a Registered Dietitian

When I tell people I’m a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) many people don’t exactly know what that means, how that differs from a “nutritionist”, and what my path to become a dietitian entailed. Growing up I played very competitive soccer. I did well in school, but soccer was my life and my passion. I took a handful of soccer recruiting trips to colleges out of state, but then last … [Read more...]

Life Lately // Springing Into Summer

We have been blessed with some beautiful weather here in the PNW over the last couple of weeks and it has me so excited for summer with our family and friends. We find ourselves outside all day long, off screens, socializing, and truly enjoying the season. Right now, we are in the thick of baseball and golf season but we have found time to hang with friends, relax, and try and slow down. Sharing … [Read more...]

The dermatologist also recommended using products like skinceuticals, IS clinical, Isdin, … [Read more...]

My Mother’s Day Weekend Recap + How to Let Go of Mom Guilt

I hope all you mom’s out there reading this has a relaxing day (hopefully the entire weekend) and were spoiled. If you were let down or underwhelmed by the holiday I think that’s really normal. Men can be a bit clueless and that’s why I’ve started to plan my own day. Last year someone wrote in a Facebook mom’s group asking for hotel recs as she wanted a solo staycation for the weekend. I loved … [Read more...]

Happy Hour

I need summer concert outfit ideas (non Taylor Swift shows)! I may be the wrong person to ask because I don’t care who the concert is for, I go comfy every time (shorts, tee and sneakers) because you’re usually on your feet the whole time and walking a ton! But, if you want some cuter options here you go: I’m considering a Cartier Love bracelet and want to try a dupe first to make sure I … [Read more...]

Favorite Workout Sets

I love a matching workout set lately. It’s so easy to throw on and look put together for a workout or throw on a half zip over it for errands. I’m loving bright colors for spring and summer (think orange, pink, and blues) but I’ve also linked some pretty tan, chambray, and black sets as well. I’ve also linked sets at all different price points to meet any budget. Which is your … [Read more...]
