We all know that wellness fads come and go. In the fast-moving world of health and wellness, it’s easy to get swept up in the latest trends, but some standouts have staying power. Cold plunging, sauna therapy, and intermittent fasting aren’t just social media sensations; they’re gaining traction among men...

Hello friend, I want to get personal with you this week. A few months ago, I found myself asking: is this really it? Just looking at my calendar made me feel like crawling right back in bed. If you’re feeling mentally tired before the workweek even begins, you’re not alone. I see it over and over again with the men and women I serve and, to be quite honest, I feel that way myself some days. Healthcare is changing rapidly and it's nowhere near where it was 30 years ago. I want you to know that...

When you think of fueling your body and staying focused throughout the day, don’t overlook lunch. That midday meal isn’t just a break from work or school. It’s a great opportunity to nourish your body, support your energy levels, and avoid the afternoon slump. With so many options out there (and just as...

Hello friend, Have you ever seen a bird try to pick up (and carry) ten different worms at the same time? Probably not. While I sat at my desk last week, noticing a couple of crows swooping down into the grass and swiftly taking flight with their catch, I realized what an important lesson this is from nature: We can only carry so much at a time. And yet—like so many high-achieving women—I know what it feels like to believe that you should be able to carry everything. That you should be able to...

Have you ever had a “gut feeling” that something in your body just isn’t quite right? Chances are, your gut is trying to tell you something. As a functional health practitioner, I thoroughly believe that healing starts from the inside out, and your digestive system plays a big role in that process. Whether...

Hello friend, How often do you hear yourself saying "I just don't have the time" about about the things you need to do? The meal prep you need to get done. The workouts you have saved on your app that you haven't started. The friends you need to catch up with. The hobbies you've always wanted to pursue. If you're like me, the moment you hear yourself saying those words, I'll bet your shoulders slump, your head hurts, and you feel that familiar sense of resentment that life is just passing you...

Do you feel like you've been doing “all the right things” but still feel like your energy is low, your weight won’t budge, and your brain’s in a fog? For women in their 40s and 50s, these symptoms are more common than you think. And no, you’re not imagining it: your metabolism really is changing. Let’s...

Hello friend, Morning will come again. This is a mantra I keep at the forefront of my mind. It's what I remind myself of time and time again especially when the world feels like it's gone dark. When I give it my all and still don't reach a goal I have taped to my vision board. When I'm disappointed and discouraged. When the path forward feels uncertain and the finish line keeps moving. I am still here, learning how to be a light no matter how long it takes for morning to rise once again. The...

Ever feel like you’re doing “all the right things” but still struggling with low energy, weight gain, or stubborn blood sugar levels? It might be your body’s way of telling you something important. Insulin resistance affects millions of Americans, including a surprising number of young adults. Recent...

Hello friend, Do you get to your desk on Monday feeling like you just can't wait until Friday? I know the feeling. For years I dreaded Mondays, actually. It's like something would click in my mind making me feel guilty for all the little pleasures I had over the weekend. The forty-five minutes I spent catching up with a friend on the phone. The two hours I spent binge-watching my favorite new series on Netflix. The I-don't-know-how-long time I spent meandering around my garden (meandering is...
