Purely Plant Based Proteins!
Lately I've been craving a more plant centric diet, which hasn't ever really been the case for me in the past. I've always loved steak, chicken, fish, etc. That being said, this came as a change for me and I was forced to do some research and look a big deeper into where I could get protein from outside of your typical meat or fish sources. So naturally, I'm sharing all of my knowledge with you! Protein Packed Plants! Obviously I love to get specific with you guys, so I'm going to share with you my favorite sources of plant based protein: Hemp...
Spring into Healthy Habits!
I'm ALWAYS preaching this, but I couldn't believe it more: Food. Is. Medicine! A caveat to that however, is that we physically can't get everything we need through our food, whether it be our body not absorbing it correctly, not eating enough of something, etc. I feel that with the change of the seasons, whether it be Spring, Summer or Fall, we're always finding ourselves a bit under the weather. Here are all of my tips and tricks for habits that you need in your life to stay healthy YEAR ROUND! Seasonal Health & Supplements I take a few supplements, but it's...
Leading with a Smile: Natural Teeth Whitening
Today, we’re going to talk TEETH whitening! One of the first things that I always notice about a person are their pearly whites. I think we can all agree that a good smile goes a long way, right? To me, teeth are just as important to your overall health as any other part of your body. If you’re eating excess sugar all the time, your teeth will eventually begin to rot, you’ll get cavities, etc. If you’re eating all the goods such as leafy green veggies, your teeth love this just as much as your body. They even try to...

Healthy Travel Must Haves – A Peek in My Carry On
Failure to plan is planning to fail - how true is that?! I always like to bring a few travel essentials to ensure that I'm setting myself up for success and eating healthy while I'm traveling. If I'm not eating healthy and feeling good, I get crabby (multiple people can attest to this, WHOOPS) - I'm an angel, swear! Ha! Yesterday, I just touched down in Barcelona and I will be doing a seven day cruise, and I wanted to share with you all the items I made sure I brought with me in my carry on, no ifs ands or...
Pantry Haul – Get the Staples!
I have a few items that I legitimately ALWAYS have in my pantry. Each week grocery shopping, I focus solely on produce, dairy and proteins. My mom once told me that 90% of your groceries should be bought from the perimeter of the store. I did't quite get this until I realized, the perimeter of the store are the produce, dairy and meat sections. The isles are where you find all the processed foods. Basically, whatever I need for my pantry, or what you would normally find on the interior of the store, I purchase on Amazon (which pretty much solely...
