It’s my birthday! Today, I’m doing a solo episode to celebrate turning 37 - can you believe it? I wanted to share some of the biggest life lessons I've learned so far. Lessons and thoughts about aging, trying something new, and that we’re allowed to change our mind about things. I also talked about trusting my intuition over what others say, how your body will change but that's okay, and why grief is a tunnel, not a cave, so keep walking forward. I would love to hear from you - what are some les...

If you follow along on Instagram, you saw last week I got to record a bunch of podcast episodes in New York City in person! While normally I record podcasts in my car, this conversation with Dr. Judith was another unique experience! We recorded this in the safe in her office and talked all about setting boundaries with family during the holidays, which I know is something a lot of people struggle with. From setting healthy boundaries for work to your in-laws, Dr. Judith gave some really helpful ...

About two weeks ago, I posted a reel on Instagram that has gone a bit viral about how I was going to the doctor for something that I originally went to the doctor for when I was 14 years old and how sometimes, as a woman, it can feel like you're just not being heard. There are so many women who feel uncertain on how to advocate for themselves in a lot of areas in their life. So let's talk about it. Also just give a little bit of an update on where I'm at with part of my health because as I've ta...

I’m finally answering a question I get in my dm’s every single day, “Why don’t you show your daughter's face on Instagram anymore?” As much as I love showing up and connecting with you all online, I’m sharing some real reasons I’ve decided not to show our daughter online right now. I’m a believer that there is so much good in the world. Unfortunately there are also trolls. None of us know how the next generation is going to operate as the first to grow up having their life documented and shared ...

I can pretty confidently say that every single one of us has grown up hearing someone speak negatively about their body, and we definitely didn’t learn skills like intuitively eating in school. Now as we’re navigating taking not only ourselves, but many of us taking care of our kids it’s no wonder we’re stressed about food and knowing how to raise physically and mentally healthy kids. I’m so excited to have Megan from Feeding Littles on the podcast. She is a dietician, certified intuitive eating...
