Kids are off next week so planning out details for a spontaneous trip.
-
Traveling is not only inspiring, but also it puts things into perspective. -
It allows me to realize that there are far bigger things that my problems, worries, or concerns. -
So what if the wifi is slow or if my favorite Thai place is closed. Traveling allows you to see that the world is not always about you. -
It allows me to see how other people live and what they have to deal with on a daily basis.
-
Have you done a staycation in your own city? What did you like about it? -
Where is your next trip planned?
-
Back to planning for me, but would love some tips or suggestions in Seattle or Portland, places to stay + things to do with the boys.

-
That’s what I am remembering from visiting Shipwreck’s Beach in Poipu, Kauai.
-
Stay and play on the stretch of beach with golden sand or hike up the many trails to the top + watch the surfers from the cliff’s edge.
-
Follow the spectacular shoreline which goes east for several
miles. -
There is no lifeguard in duty so great for beach walks + relaxing with the sunset. It has a strong shore break so unless you’re a powerful swimmer/surfer it’s best to enjoy the view.
-
Save these pics and add them to your must see beaches list!
-
Do you have a favorite beach or a go to beach you just love?

If you are getting tired of the same boring snacks need + need a pick me up, try adding the Nutty Infusions from @nowfoodsofficial -
They come in a variety of unique flavors like mango chili cashew, ginger wasabi cashew, salted caramel cashew, cashew nut butter and almond butter. -
I know right? You are probably thinking what to do with all these flavors? They are so good and literally my mouth is watering right now thinking about which one to start with today.
-
Here are a few combos to get you started:
✔️ Mango Chili Cashew with: fig spread (like PB&J), snap peas, jicama
✔️Ginger Wasabi Cashew with: carrots, broccoli, skewers
✔️ Salted Caramel Cashew with: Apples, bananas, pretzels, pita chips
✔️ Cashew Butter with: celery, crackers, waffles
✔️ Almond Butter with: apples, sandwiches, oatmeal, pancakes
-
What is your favorite afternoon snack? Why?

I believe it’s about to happen! We are beginning to think about our summer adventures now.☀️🏝
-
As I talk with the boys and learn about more places we want to explore like Mammoth caves, new beaches, places to climb, canoeing + kayaking, we have a growing list.
-
What is your next trip or adventure? Where is one place you want to visit? Any recommendations of fun place to see with your kids?
-
Travel has always been in my blood and I am so excited for what’s in store in the next few months!

It’s to bring more awareness to the 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐬𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞. It happens to be number one threat for women ❤️ 𝙃𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙩 𝘿𝙞𝙨𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙚 ❤️
-
The campaign reminds women to know their blood pressure and their HDL cholesterol - High Density Lipids. Do you know your numbers? When was the last time you had these checked?
-
♦️40-59mg/dL is good but above 60mg/dL offers the best protection against heart disease.
-
♦️Healthy range for blood pressure is 120/80 -
I actually just had my physical a week ago so my numbers are fresh in my head. 80mg/dL for my HDL and 110/70 for blood pressure.♥️
-
How does this happen? Regular exercise with resistance training, yoga, + a well balanced nutrition plan that includes mostly plant based including good fats. (And dark chocolate is included in that too 🍫)
-
How can you live heart healthy today and the rest of the month?! ❤️

WOOHOO!! It sure is a #fabfriday!
-
I’m thrilled to announce I am the featured @socialsparkling #bossbabe for the month of February! 💗
-
You can read about my story on their blog. Check it out by clicking the link in bio.
-
Update: after a dry January I noticed that it’s much easier to say NO when I have my GAME PLAN in place (dry month) + know my WHY (just a healthy reset). **This also works when your trying to stear clear of certain foods at a party.🎉
-
I am more thoughtful of when I chose to drink in February + certainly more conscious of what I chose to drink. -
What I LOVE about @socialsparkling is it’s made from organic brown rice and only 88 calories! They come in cute 10oz cans so you don’t have to be commuted to a bottle. My fav is the Pink Grapefruit Ginger 💖🧡
-
They are #gmofree #sulfitefree #noartificialsweeteners 💫
-
This #womenownedbusiness has a great story behind her “Why” she created #socialsparklingwine - we sure to read her story too.
-
Check it out! What plans do you have this weekend?! 🥂

I had the pleasure of working with @sweatnethusband over at @elevatefitlife yesterday. It was so much fun coming up with creative athletic shots. 📸
-
Thank goodness my back neck and shoulder are in the mend. It’s been touch and go for so long now!! 💪
-
I have stuck to the rehab program, continued working on my exercises at home + been going to Muscle Activation Therapy twice a week since November! 🌟
-
Keep focused on your goals because those results and changes are closer than you think. 💫

It happened after finding out the groundhog did not see his shadow so spring is officially right around the corner! 💐 Can I get a woohoo?!
-
It happened before the Super Bowl! 🏈 Can I just say it was one of my all time favorite half time shows with @JLo and @shakira! What serious all-around awesome + talented women #latinas
-
So in between those two big events we met @kendrascott #bellevue for our #yogasculpt and @intelliroll class. These ladies brought it today. -
Our suggested word for class was “openness” - an openness to accept where you are, challenge you’re self when you need it, and the ability to differentiate between the two.
-
How can you allow openness into your day and your week? Open your heart, your mind, your muscles?
-
Huge thanks to all our sponsors #kendrascottbellevue , Intelliroll #foamrollers, @nowfoodsofficial, @drinkiconic, and @greatlakesgelatin
-
Happy Monday and let’s go out there and be “open” to the possibilities of greatness this month!

Did you know 60% of people are undiagnosed with this condition?
-
I am talking about a thyroid condition. January is Thyroid awareness month and while today is the last day of the month, it is never too late to find out about your thyroid.
-
I have partnered with @palomahealth - the first online thyroid testing that solely focuses on hypothyroid. -
They work with the best trained they rodi specialisits that not only test your thyroid but also work with you on a nutrition program that suits your specific needs.
-
I sure wished I knew about them when I was diagnosed with Hashimtos disease several years ago. We discovered the imbalance after I finished breast feeding my first son. We wanted to start trying for another child and it is nearly impossible to get pregnant with a thyroid out of wack, not to mention all the other variables that can happen like sluggishness, fogginess, irritability, shakiness, amongst a few.⭐️
-
Thankfully I have been able to get it not only in control, but in balance without any more medication. I did use medication for about four years.💫
-
It is important to me to check it periodically to be sure I am within the healthy ranges so I am grateful for Paloma who makes this process simple and concise.🌟
-
Have you ever had your thyroid checked? When was the last time? Did you know Paloma works with many major insurance plans?!💙💪

{#ad} Well I do love my joy . . . and these @nowfoods facial products are the cosmetics I’ve been using since last summer when I was first introduced to them. I was fully hooked and on board.
-
I agree with Jim, the CEO of NOW foods, that my favorite facial product is the Hyaluronic Acid Serum. I use it twice a day.
-
Plus a handful of other goodies like the COQ10 serum, 2-in-1 correcting Eye Cream, and Charcoal Detox Moisturizer. These are the best anti-aging healthy glowing skin products I have used. (Believe me, I have tried a lot over the years!)
-
Are you one who believes washing their face at night is a non-negotiable? I am definitely in that boat. No makeup to sleep in for me.

Life brings us as many 𝓳𝓸𝔂𝓯𝓾𝓵 𝓶𝓸𝓶𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓼 as it does 𝕕𝕠𝕨𝕟𝕗𝕒𝕝𝕝𝕤. Although there are days you may wish there was a manual to follow, it simply wouldn’t be the same without the spontaneity. -
Your journey of life may not become easier as you grow older, but we do seem to understand it better as our perspectives evolve.

How have you been open to evolving this weekend?

“Things can fall apart, or threaten to, for many reasons, and then there's got to be a leap of faith. Ultimately, when you're at the edge, you have to go forward or backward; if you go forward, you have to jump together.” Yo-yo Ma
-
This week has definitely been challenging for me 𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 as I have had set backs 𝙥𝙝𝙮𝙨𝙞𝙘𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 (with my neck, back + shoulder). -
However, I have dried my frustrated tears, and have chosen to focus more on the what I can do vs what I can’t. -
You too can get through those challenging times. You can keep your goal or mission in the forefront of your mind. Practice seeing yourself in that light. Feel what it feels like, smell the sweet scent of success.
-
No one said it would be an easy road. Sometimes you just need to 𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙥 in a different direction to reach that goal.
-
Who wants to leap into the weekend with me? 🙋‍♀️ What will you do to leap ahead? 💫 Put on sparkley pants and fun booties?
