Questions about supplements…I get them quite frequently. Questions and supplements. In fact, my BFF/ fitness accountability partner/morning counselor and I were just talking about this exact topic this morning. I have realized that while I most definitely think you can go way overboard with supplementation; it is important that we supplement as an “insurance policy,” […]
I had a meeting yesterday. A business meeting. Focusing on, well, business and marketing. For the 3 businesses that I am currently involved in. The thing is that meeting, it sparked something in me. I heard it. Why is the least amount of my focus is going towards the exact thing that I love most? […]
Oatmeal, baked oats, homemade granola, oatmeal crumble, overnight oats… Oatmeal with chopped nuts, oatmeal with diced apples, peanut butter oatmeal, cinnamon oatmeal, peaches & cream oatmeal, pumpkin oats, oatmeal with berries and flax, savory oats, almond butter banana oatmeal, coconut chia oatmeal….you get the point, the options are endless!

Re-working and re-writing this blog post from the original back in 2018. A few have changed since then. Kendall is not having a birthday in 7 days. We are not about to head out on a mission trip and experience some of the most life-changing moments in 7 days. My most recent pancake recipe does […]
