Have you ever sent a meal back at a restaurant? Asked for a flight upgrade? Switched hotel rooms because you wanted something specific? Something about those kinds of situations can feel, well, stressful. High maintenance, almost. At least, to me. Despite being fairly assertive, I’ve always shied away from those types of situations. Last week I was in Naples, Florida …
You know that feeling, when you’ve let a lot of your usual habits fall by the wayside and start to feel totally discombobulated, anxious and out of sorts? That was me this past weekend. I could feel the anxiety building last week and it peaked this weekend, leaving me a bit of a nervous wreck. But then I started to …
It feels like gratitude is becoming some sort of fad with the number of times I hear it mentioned lately, especially on social media. However, it’s for excellent reason: Learning to look for gratitude retrains your brain to search for gratitude in everything. How cool is that?! It’s the habit and attitude we can easily cultivate, and it keeps giving …
When do you feel like you have the most willpower? Think about time of day, perhaps day of the week (or even time of the month!). What are some of the things you notice when you start to dig into that a little more? The last 2 weeks I was having a TON of cravings, and I was trying to …
We talk a lot about all-or-nothing mindset, and what it really comes down to the most is trust. We don’t trust ourselves to make the right choice when it comes to food, and the cycle perpetuates because every time we make ourselves another promise (starting a new diet on Monday yet again, never eating sugar again, going on that crash …
Recently I was interviewed for an article where the journalist asked me if I would help people eat according to their moral code, or if I would try to steer them in a different direction. This got me thinking about how attached we get to food and how it can do more harm than good. There are a lot …
Just wanted to pop in with a little dose of encouragement this morning! Honestly, social media has all kinds of positives, but it can bring out the dark side in us too. It’s way too easy to get stuck in scrolling your newsfeed, comparing your life to everyone else and thinking that you aren’t enough. That your life somehow doesn’t …
There’s something about this winter season. Everyone I’ve talked to is either sick, getting over being sick, or has a ton of people in their life that are sick. And let’s be real, nobody got time for that! I recently got sick for the first time in years and it has been going on and off for about a month. …
Overeating at night is probably the #1 issue I hear about from clients and anyone asking me about their eating habits. They can do well all day long, sticking with a very exact meal plan (which I don’t give out, by the way), and then it all falls apart right around bedtime and it can often feel like a mystery …
I usually don’t wear much makeup, but the one beauty trick in any girl’s back pocket is clear skin. That said, it can be easier said than done. Many people struggle with skin issues whether it’s acne, breakouts around that time of the month or simply the occasional zit that pops up *specifically* at the worst possible times. Tell me …
