Some may say that “The Kitchen” is the Heart of the Home; the life pulse of every household. It’s where we all find ourselves a majority of the day. The Table, right there in the middle of it all, seems to be gathering more and more dust in todays society “norm”.

This picture contains my mindset for summer! The kids constantly planning things, and Mom and Dad laughing at the lunacy of all the chaos. Yup, it’s summer time, BUT Mom is still the coordinator. Let me share with you how I manage it all, keep the kids healthy, and still find time to do the things I like to do.

It’s time to understand your own customized diet. Yo-yo dieting is a thing of the 90’s. Let’s walk through some steps to help you understand your body and what it needs, as well as discovering what it doesn’t want!

Switching to a Healthier Lifestyle can be quite an overwhelming process. Let’s talk about the top 5 an Integrative Health Coach can walk you through…or you can even try out on your own.

Here’s your diagnosis. Have a great day! Ummmm…now what?!!!

From its crucial role in hormone production to its influence on our sleep patterns, the thyroid gland is a silent powerhouse within our bodies. Yet, many remain unaware of its significance until faced with a diagnosis.

In the last few decades, so much information has developed in the realm of what the science and health community call, “The Gut Brain Axis”. What exactly does that mean? And, why is it important to keep this connection healthy and strong? Let’s discuss, shall we…

As parents, we stress ourselves out over what are truly ridiculous things when it comes to raising our kiddos. Seldom do we ever think about their tiny little guts because of all the outside chaos. Here is a little peek into how we can help those tiny guts be strong and resilient.

Microbes make up a world that we, as humans, cannot see with the naked eye. Nonetheless, they have a massive impact on our livelihood of survival. Going through a gut “fixer upper” myself, has taught me so much about this micro world. I hope some of this information can help you understand a little bit more about these tiny things.

We live in an Acute Healthcare driven society today. Many do not understand their own health, and how their health contributes to society at large. Taking responsibility for your own health is the first step of many…

We need to embrace the fact, that we are the impact that will create the ultimate ripple effect in those little people that we raise from conception.

I take my JOB as a MOM very seriously. Their DAD take his JOB as a father very seriously. We are the first guides our children are ever exposed to in this world. Discussing and debating our evolving knowledge with them is the MOST important thing we can do as their parents so they can grow into introspective thinkers. NOT restricted and overpowered members of "the herd".

Our kids’ health is in a rapid decline. As I have mentioned before, we now live in an era in which our kids have a shorter life expectancy than their parents. What can we do to reverse it?

It’s okay to disagree with (most) of what your kids are trying to tell you. And sometimes tune it out. But, if we don’t give them space to be who they are, they will never discover who they are meant to be.

In order to love another with all your soul, you must first love yourself with all your soul. No, not the cute love yourself before you love another. This is an ugly cry kind of love.

One can never be successful in making a solid loaf of bread by only using one ingredient and skipping steps along the way. The full recipe needs to be incorporated in order for a flavorful and textured loaf to be accomplished. Much like a family…

Many ask what Coaches do. Uncertain if we just upload positive posts to social media, or if we actually coach like a sports coach with a clip board. Hmmm…well, neither of those comes close. So, let’s discuss what me and my fellow Coaches ACTUALLY do!

We all have heard, “Call out the Elephant in the room”. But, the Elephant doesn’t just take up space in a room…it travels everywhere with you, and casts quite a shadow. Not the shadow you are thinking of, though. How do your problems affect little eyes, ears, and health?

I love to eat. Better yet, I love the way food makes me feel, makes me think, and creates a connection between me and others. The only problem I have with food, is the overwhelming “outside advice” I am given on what to eat, and how to eat it. The truth is seldom told about REAL food. And when it it is discussed, it falls on deaf ears due to the takeover of the “American Convenient Diet” (ACD).

Calorie in - Calorie out is still very much prominent in the work out community. Many trainers and coaches encourage proper caloric intake and nutrition when individuals step into the world of physical fitness.
