BTS from this week’s video filming! 🎬 (Notice the mess on the right, perfectly out of video frame, dishes, coffee cup, real life things!)

We dove deep into insulin resistance, and I’ve got so much info I can’t wait to share with you all. Stay tuned—it’s coming soon!

We took a little break last week to catch up on life—let’s be real, sometimes it just gets crazy! This week I’ve got a video with straight talk on what it really takes to be healthy and live healthy—no shortcuts! Plus, a life update video is in the works—let’s just say things haven’t gone quite as planned. 😅

In the meantime, here’s a little BTS from filming the seed oils video!

Hi Thrivers! We’re taking a little break this week to soak up some family time, hiking, and fresh mountain air—but I couldn’t leave you hanging without sharing something delicious!

This recipe was inspired by our lovely viewer Jim, who told me I had to try the viral date Snickers bar. Well…I tried it, and then I made it even better 😉

My version has layers of chewy dates + crunchy peanuts, a generous swirl of natural peanut butter, and it’s all topped with a layer chocolate. No added sugar, just naturally sweet and so satisfying. All of my boys gave it a solid 5/5!

I hope you make it and love it as much as we do!

Tomorrow’s video will be a little different—no recipes, just a real life update. 💬

After 21 years of service, Devin is retiring—and let’s just say, some big changes are ahead for our family. I’m ready to share a bit more about what’s next (including a big move 👀).

It also happens to be my 100th video 💛

See you tomorrow!

I’ve been working on a new recipe I’m super excited about — a homemade twist on Modern Market’s Buddha Bowl! 🌱 I’m calling it my Tofu Quinoa Bowl with Mango Peanut Sauce and it’s so satisfying. Crispy tofu, fluffy quinoa, colorful veggies, and that sweet-savory sauce… 👩‍🍳✨

I just used this in a recent cooking class and it was such a hit!

What copycat recipes are you interested in? I’d love to recreate more of your favorites!

Embrace the "mindset matters" shift, "Create healthy habits, not restrictions."✨

The journey to wellness should NOT be about deprivation, but about nourishing habits that encourage us to thrive! 🌱
