One of my clients came to me in her early 60s after years of struggling with Type 2 diabetes, weight gain, and exhaustion.

I hope you don't mind me adding a little something extra to your inbox this week. In a world that seems to be filled with bad news, I've decided to start sharing a little more of what I find that feels good and what sparks hope. Once a month, on the final Friday, I'll share my bookmarks of what I found interesting, inspiring, uplifting, or just downright funny. Why the Final Friday? Because I believe your weekend should be an oasis: time to relax, reset, and refill your hope for the month...

Hello Reader, How did you do with last week's Mindset Mastery challenge to have a look at were you might be stretching yourself too thin? Now that you have that insight, this week I want you to think about something even more important: small steps. We live in a world that wants you to do three things all the time: go big, go fast, go strong. But I'm here to tell you that it's that very mindset that holds so many of us back and locks us in cycles of failure. Why? Because the steps we set are...

As summer’s warmth gives way to crisp autumn air and shorter days, your body naturally begins to adjust.

Image: Sarah Nilson Art Hello Reader, I’m going to ask you to try something a little controversial this week: stop giving 100% to everything you do. I know, I know—your manager, your director, your friends, even your family would probably flip if they heard me say that. Because you’re the person who always gives it all. You’re the one who shows up when no one else does. The one who raises your hand to volunteer when everyone else has already packed up and gone home. You’re the one who can...

From tackling your to-do list to lacing up your tennis shoes, for many, restful nights become harder to come by thanks to shifting hormones, busy schedules, and life’s daily demands. But here’s the good news: moving your body during the...

Hello Reader, Two weeks ago, I caught myself doing something I tell everyone else not to do: beating myself up. As hard as I tried to be consistent with my morning writing, I got distracted not just one day but three days in a row. For me, it's really hard when I don't meet my personal goals. So this week, let’s talk about those moments when you beat yourself up for not following through on your plans, especially when it’s because you’ve given your time away to someone else. If you missed...

In recent years, I’ve noticed subtle changes in how we approach our nutrition or even weight loss. Decades ago, you’d mostly hear the usual “eat less, move more." And while this advice isn’t necessarily bad, it doesn’t always translate well when you factor in things like gut health, hormones, the types of...

It seems like plant-based eating is everywhere these days. And that's for a good reason!
