The Fiber Flush Effect
Yesterday (and a lot of days) I found myself at Target for a quick run to get a few necessities. You know, bananas, tampons, colored pencils, a potted plant, new throw pillows, and approximately 67 things from the Dollar Spot. (Believe me we’re getting to the fiber flush effect here.) The Fiber Flush Effect I’m…
Read MoreHow to Use Chia Seeds
I grew up in the 80s, and I remember when chia seeds were the rage because that was how you grew hair on your Chia Pet. Remember those? I can still hear the “cha-cha-cha-chia!” jingle in my head. But if you’re trying to find out how to use chia seeds that’s not the method I’m going…
Read MoreWhy You Need to Detox Your Hair
As a kid, I always wanted long, curly hair. I had long hair for almost 16 years, but it was straight as a stick and not anywhere near curly. I spent a good portion of my teen years convinced that God was laughing when I’d try to curl it and the curls would fall out…

Have you every avoided trying something new (a recipe, a workout, or even a coffee shop) because you thought it would be too hard, too far, or too much work. Sound familiar? I find that I use these silly excuses to avoid trying new things all the time. It’s so much easier to sit in…

Read MoreWhy You Should Exercise During Your Period
This post is sponsored by U by Kotex®. All opinions as always are my own. It’s no secret that life has been crazy busy for me this last year. Between a full-time job, my side gigs, being a mom to an elementary kid (how did that happen?!) and a toddler tornado, trying to spend some…
Read MoreHow to Be Healthy & Happy
Okay, so I love eating healthy but don’t get me wrong, I still enjoy treats and yes, eat French fries every once in a while. And, while we’re being honest, I’m pretty sure that “diet” is a four-letter word. Getting healthy isn’t about going on a diet and exercising like crazy. It’s about a lifestyle…
Read MoreWhat is a Buddha Bowl?
What is a Buddha bowl is a question I ran into the other day, after a few hours spend on Pinterest. Raise your hand if you’ve ever gotten lost searching on Pinterest for a recipe when you’re really hungry and then you realize that it’s been literally hours. Keep it up if you’ve asked yourself…
