Let’s Talk Smart Smoothie Formula 🙌🏼💯🎉

Most of my clients rave that their AM smoothie ritual is the single most impactful habit of their day! 👌🙌🏼The one that is easiest to sustain, and yields the biggest BANG for the smallest effort!!

Balanced Green Smoothies simply elevate your morning, and start your day on a positive, energetic, veggie filled note!! Your body craves what you feed it y’all!

Here's an easy checklist to make sure your smoothie is on par with your health goals!

✨Gather Your Greens!! It is mandatory that your smoothie contain at least ONE, but preferably THREE veggies. Baby spinach and Butter Leaf are almost undetectable + yield a fluffy texture. Cucumber & celery are great forms of hydrating minerals, and frozen riced cauliflower gives your smoothie a creamy, delish consistency!

✨Fold in FAT AND FIBER! Fat + Fiber keep you full, focused and your blood sugar steady– so you can conquer your day! Avocados, Nut Butters, Hemp Seeds, Chia Seeds, Flax and Coconut Oil are some of my favorite clean sources of healthy fat with fiber. 2 TB is all you need!

✨Pack In Protein! My favorite source is Unflavored Marine Collagen Peptides or Bone Broth Protein. If you are vegan–100% Organic Hemp Protein is delicious, high in fiber and anti-inflammatory.

✨Limit Fruit to ONE (maybe two) Servings! I love using berries bc they are high in antioxidants + fiber and low in sugar. Bananas and dates are also great options! They lend your smoothie a sweeter flavor, creamier texture + fuel your body with potassium & magnesium! The goal with fruit is to use a couple servings to provide quick energy. More than that will spike your blood sugar and negate the entire purpose of a green smoothie!

✨Super Smoothies come From Superfoods! Cacao powder and nibs are my all time favs because of the chocolate like flavor + the beneficial antioxidants. I also really love moringa for a dose of extra greens, turmeric for inflammation support and fresh herbs (especially mint and cilantro) for a detoxifying effect.

Looking to upgrade your smoothie game in 2021🎉 --head to the #linkinmybio for a few new recipes! I've been making the Green Butter Leaf Smoothie on repeat

#toasttuesday y’all!! LOVE these simple, flavo

#toasttuesday y’all!!

LOVE these simple, flavorful ideas from @real_simple 🙌🏼❤️ Smoked salmon & pesto is one of my staples, but I think the ricotta + orange 🍊 toast sounds divine! I use the #kitehill #dairyfree ricotta 👌

My favorite way to enjoy bread 🥖 is a good clean local sourdough with around 4 basic ingredients! Ezekiel makes some awesome #grainfree breads too! Another idea is to use roasted sweet potato 🍠 as your “toast” 💯🎉

Make it a great day y’all! Nourish yourself in a way that feels good 😌

Making time for important relationships & friendsh

Making time for important relationships & friendships in your life is not frivolous!! It’s essential ❤️

Strong, positive relationships are as essential to our health as diet & movement and just as important as being productive at work!

I know it’s so much easier to say you don’t have time, life is too crazy, or you will plan something “soon”...but do yourself a favor and invest in your relationships! They are so good for your heart, mindset & soul!

Today I had the pleasure of a delightful walk in the sunshine with Zander followed by a game of HORSE (I got schooled BTW😂). Zan and I are both “busy bodies” often fluttering in our own orbits...if I don’t consciously make an effort for us to connect, we will literally just be 2 ships sailing by each other day in and day out.

Same with my girlfriends 👯‍♀️ 👯‍♀️
Yesterday we FINALLY made brunch happen, and it was just so nice to be together and belly laugh! We see each other on social media and quickly at school drop off, but it’s just not the same!!

I keep reminding myself that #savor is my intention for 2021 -and making time and space for friendship is a big part of how I would define savory experiences!! So this is #livingmytruth

Furthermore—-As humans, we are naturally social creatures that crave some capacity of physical connection

Do yourself a favor and see if you can schedule some 1x1 time with someone you love this week! It’s like therapy, it’s like a breath of fresh air, it’s fun and it’s definitely not frivolous!!!

Happy Friday!! 🎉What a week! From snow ❄️ t

Happy Friday!! 🎉What a week! From snow ❄️ to sun ☀️ to #allthethings

It has been a busy week over here #coaching clients, and I'm so #grateful 🙏🏻for the chance to effect positive change in the lives of so many!

In my 1x1 coaching sessions, we work really hard to create #sustainable daily practices that are #enjoyable, #resultsdriven and most importantly focused on "winning" your long game!

✨Maximizing the quality of your life ✨is one of the very best gifts you can give yourself. And if you can find joy in the journey, that's icing on the cake 🎂 🥰

Finding enjoyment in anything, really comes through meaning. Everyone has their own reason why movement, or running, or drinking a green smoothie, or breathwork, or daily walks is important to them.

To stay motivated, you simply need to keep "your why" top of mind. 💯

Maybe you run everyday in hopes that one day you qualify for the Boston marathon. Maybe you are diligent with your yoga practice to increase flexibility and mobility so you can play with your kids with more agility. Maybe breathwork is important, because you have a really stressful job and it's the best way you can process a hard day at the "office".

Maybe you consistently drink your smoothie because it's an easy routine that simply makes you feel good! 🙌🏼

The key to any transformation is awareness!! You are capable of amazing things. It starts with awareness, inspiration and deliberate actions. Let me know if I can help!

Have an amazing weekend, friends! XO

Y’all need a quick/easy #plantbased dinner for t

Y’all need a quick/easy #plantbased dinner for the kids?! This is my go-to when I don’t feel like preparing dinner. #ithappens 🤪

Zia and I Made this #organicgreenlentilpenne + #organicbroccoliflorets in #onepot for total of 8 minutes!! You can’t even order takeout that fast!!

Once boiled, we simply added a little salted ghee + pesto, and sautéed cabbage mix And it was delicious!!

The bonus 🎉 It’s an #easy #lowfuss meal with #cleaningredients #veggies and #fiber 🙌🏼

I know what some of you are thinking....”my kids would never eat that”, and with that mindset you are 💯 correct. BUT..if you can approach feeding your family with #curiosity and a willingness to try new things {and fail along the way}. I promise you can get there!!

By the way—it was Zia’s idea to top our pasta w sautéed cabbage mix 🥬 🥰. I was floored and so proud 🥲🙏🏻.
This comes from a Mac n cheese loving 2 year old who refused veggies on the daily!!

I never gave up, and now I reap the benefits 💯❤️🥰
