I thought it would be fun to round-up all my favorited health and wellness products that I’ve worked into my daily routine over the past several months. This is the stuff I spend my money on because IMO my physical health, my skin health, and overall wellness is more important to me than clothes, shoes, purses, etc. I’ll get that on Amazon lol. Let me know if you have any questions in the … [Read more...]

Summer finally decided to show up in Washington last weekend after the grossest spring ever! I finally get to dust off all my favorite shorts and tanks. Whether I’m walking the pup, taking an Orange Theory class, or just outside playing with the girls, I pretty much live in workout shorts all summer. I’ve rounded up my favorites for you in case you want to add a new pair to your collection. I … [Read more...]

I cannot stress enough how important sleep in overall health status. Poor sleep impacts EVERYTHING from your energy, mood, metabolism, what and how much you eat, etc. We talk a lot about how we prioritize sleep on the blog because we both cherish our sleep and know we cannot live well when we are getting good quality sleep. We both love our Oura rings and nerd out on our sleep stats…thats how … [Read more...]

Rest and recovery days are so important for people of all fitness levels. Recovery is an important aspect of any exercise routine because it allows the body time to repair and strengthen itself in between workouts. If we don’t allow for rest days, the stress will build up and there will likely be negative side effects. I used to feel guilty about rest days and not properly take care of myself … [Read more...]

Temps are rising (so they say…we’re still at 62 and cloudy here in WA) but anyways, it’s time to dust off the shorts and tanks and transition into summer workout attire. I love taking my workouts outdoors as much as possible during the summer and I’ve found that cute new activewear motivates me to get moving more than anything. Here’s what I’m loving for warmer workouts. xx, A … [Read more...]

 May is mental health awareness month and because statistically 1 in 5 people suffer from a mental health condition I figured we should be talking about it more. As we all know, there is a mental health crisis as a result of the pandemic the past 2 years, so that statistic I mentioned above could even be higher. I’m not intimidated by this topic because I have extensive experience in … [Read more...]

Today’s post is a bit of a brain dump on how I have been feeling about the wellness world on social media. I was motivated to write today’s post after an interaction I had on social media with an account we have been following for a while. They regularly promoted a fasting program (which they were clearly getting for free and getting a kick back for everyone that signed up, but they were not … [Read more...]

Lately, I have been finding myself not impressed with anything at Lululemon, and trust me I’ve tried to find things to buy ;) I have been really into getting lower budget items from other stores like Aerie, Target, Old Navy, and dupes off Amazon. I still love all my Lulu pieces, but I like to sprinkle in less spendy items. xx, A … [Read more...]

When I was in Austin a few weeks ago, my friend brought the cutest athletic skirt to go walking in. I loved how it elevated a simple walking outfit and then looked so cute and put together as we went to brunch after. So of course I immediately got online and ordered one for myself (and a workout dress- linked below) and plan to wear on my walks this summer. The skirts and dress I linked below … [Read more...]
