Sometimes when you eat a certain way for so long, you forget what "normal" is.

At That Healthy Place, we forget to mention how healthy and clean our food really is. To us, it's just the standard, so we don't really do a great job at saying how clean and healthy our food really is, because we don't really think twice about it 🙃

We are far from the average cafe/restaurant.

Here are 10 things we do that are not the "normal."

1. We have no real sugar in the cafe.
2. The only oils in our kitchen are coconut oil and olive oil.
3. 95% of our produce is organic or small farm-grown. The things that are not organic don't need to be, like onions and garlic.
4. All of our herbs and seasonings are organic.
5. We make all of our sauces and cheeses out of plants.
6. We only use Redmond's Real Salt. Unrefined, no additives, full of trace minerals, and mined in Utah.
7. We get our greens and fresh vegetables from Produce with Purpose in Kaukana.
8. Our shakes are made from all organic fruits, organic vegetables, and organic or wildcrafted herbs.
9. Nothing on our menu contains soy or corn. (This topic could be a whole novel, but just trust us, it's best to limit consumption of these sneaky brain and gut killers)
10. We use organic soaked or sprouted seeds and oats
11. Everything is gluten-free, dairy-free, and seed-oil free
12. We use organic pasture-raised local eggs.
13. All of the nut butters we use are just 2 ingredients. The nut, and salt. No additives or other oils.

Ok, ok, ok. That was more than 10; we could honestly probably list even more, but that was just off the top of our heads.

We truly do care what goes into each and every one of your bodies. We are hoping to create a new standard in dining.

We hope to be a place you can trust. Where everything you order is beneficial to your quality of life and every part of your beautiful human body.

Strength is a beautiful way to honor the temple. ✨🏋️‍♀️

As we navigate the season of perimenopause, our bodies aren’t “breaking down”—they are asking for a new kind of stewardship. While a long walk or a cardio session is wonderful for the soul, heavy lifting is what truly safeguards the vessel God gave you.

In this transition, lifting heavy isn’t about “bulking up.” It’s about:

Protecting your foundation: Building bone density when hormones are shifting.

Reviving your energy: Boosting a metabolism that might feel like it’s slowing down.

Mental Fortitude: Reminding yourself that you are “clothed with strength and dignity” (Proverbs 31:25).

Your muscles are the armor that protects your joints and your longevity. Don’t be afraid to pick up the heavy weights, sisters. You were designed to be resilient, capable, and strong.

Let’s stop just trying to “shrink” and start trying to “strengthen.” 💪🌷

Hosanna in the highest 🌿✨

Today we remember the moment Jesus entered Jerusalem—humble, riding on a donkey, yet welcomed as King.

The crowds waved palm branches and cried out in praise… but little did they know what was coming next.

Palm Sunday is a beautiful reminder that even when the path ahead includes sacrifice, suffering, and uncertainty—God is still working out a greater plan.

He is the same King we welcome into our hearts today.

Not just in celebration, but in surrender.

Not just in the easy moments, but in the hard ones too.

May we lay down our burdens, our expectations, and our need for control… and trust Him fully. 🤍

Hosanna—save us, Lord.

And thank You for being the kind of King who came to serve, love, and redeem.

🌿 Family Gut Health Made Easy! 🌿

Our family’s secret to staying balanced and thriving? Megaspore probiotics! 💛

✨ For the kids: Megaspore Gummies make gut support fun, tasty, and stress-free. No more daily battles with pills—they actually look forward to them!

✨ For us adults: My husband and I stick with Megaspore capsules to keep our digestion, immunity, and overall wellness on track. Because healthy parents = happy kids!

💡 Why we love it: Supports a healthy microbiome, reduces bloating, and helps everyone feel their best—inside and out.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Family wellness starts in the gut!

Why do we choose SPORE BASED?
1️⃣ Survive the Journey Through Your Gut

Many probiotics are “fragile” and get destroyed by stomach acid before they even reach the intestines.
Spore probiotics form a protective shell (like a tiny shield) that allows them to survive stomach acid and reach the gut alive.

2️⃣ Balance the Gut Microbiome

They don’t just add more bacteria—they help rebalance your gut microbiome, supporting healthy digestion, immunity, and nutrient absorption.

This is especially helpful for kids who might have taken antibiotics or adults dealing with bloating or low immunity.

3️⃣ Reduce Bloating & Support Digestion

Unlike some probiotics that can temporarily increase gas, spore probiotics are often well-tolerated and can actually help calm digestive issues over time.

4️⃣ Support Immune Health

Up to 70% of your immune system is in your gut. A healthy microbiome from spore probiotics helps the body fight off infections and supports overall wellness.

5️⃣ Family-Friendly

Gummies for kids make it easy and fun, while capsules for adults give stronger, targeted support. Everyone in the family can get what they need without compromise.

Healing isn’t meant to be rushed 🤍 and this post below ⬇️ is so so important and also biblically based

In a world that glorifies quick fixes, we forget that our bodies were designed by God to heal in rhythms… not shortcuts.

Cheap. Fast. Convenient.

Those are the very things that often keep women stuck, exhausted, and searching for answers.

Real healing?

It requires surrender.

It requires consistency.

It requires trust in the process the Lord is walking you through.

Because discipline—rooted in faith—will always outlast temporary relief.

“The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance…” – Proverbs 21:5 ✨

If you’ve been feeling discouraged in your healing journey, this is your reminder:

God is not in a rush, and neither should you be.

Stay consistent. Stay prayerful. Stay obedient.

Your breakthrough is being built in the unseen.

4 MONTHS. 4 PHASES. FULL BODY RESET 🤍✨

If you’ve been feeling bloated, exhausted, inflamed, or just not like yourself… this is your invitation.

I’m opening up a small, guided group for a 4-month, 4-phase detox journey designed to gently support your body the way it was created to heal.

This isn’t a crash cleanse.

This is intentional, supported healing — physically, mentally, and spiritually.

✨ PHASE 1: Open drainage + support mitochondria
✨ PHASE 2: Gut + microbiome reset
✨ PHASE 3: Deeper detox + cellular repair
✨ PHASE 4: Rebuild, nourish, and maintain

Inside the group, you’ll get:
– Step-by-step supplement + protocol guidance
– Weekly check-ins + education
– Faith-based encouragement + mindset support
– Nutrition tips to reduce bloat + inflammation
– A community of women walking this with you 🤍

Because healing isn’t just about what you take…

It’s about how you live, think, and surrender too.

“For I will restore health to you, and your wounds I will heal, declares the Lord.” – Jeremiah 30:17

If your body has been whispering (or screaming) for a reset… this is your sign.

Sweet girl, your bloating isn’t just about food… it’s your body whispering for deeper healing 🤍

Chronic bloat, SIBO, and low energy are often rooted in more than just what’s on your plate. Stress, nervous system dysregulation, and low stomach acid create the perfect environment for imbalance in the gut.

When we live in constant fight-or-flight, digestion slows, stomach acid drops, and bacteria begin to overgrow where they shouldn’t.

And here’s the truth most won’t tell you—

You can follow every protocol, take every supplement, eat “perfectly”…

but if your mind and spirit are still overwhelmed, anxious, and depleted—you will keep relapsing.

Healing your gut means healing your heart, too. ✨

God designed your body to function from a place of peace, not pressure.

When you invite Him into your healing, regulate your nervous system, and restore your inner calm… your digestion begins to follow.

This is your reminder:

You are not broken. Your body is protecting you.

Let’s get to the root—physically, mentally, and spiritually 🌿

Comment “HEAL” if you’re ready to break the cycle of bloating, SIBO, and burnout for good 💫

8 weeks. 🤍✨

She walked in feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and unheard…

• Mood swings that made her feel unlike herself
• Brain fog that stole her clarity
• Recurring infections that wouldn’t go away
• Constant fatigue, no matter how much she rested
• Nighttime hot flashes disrupting her peace

She had been searching for answers… and not finding them.

But instead of settling, she leaned in.

She chose to listen to her body.

She committed fully to her healing.

We ran a comprehensive hormone panel, mycotoxin testing, and a full GI gut panel—because your symptoms are never random, they are messages.

And then… she followed the protocol with intention and faith.

✨ 8 weeks later… every single symptom is gone. ✨

No more mood swings.
No more brain fog.
No more infections.
No more exhaustion.
No more restless nights.

This is what happens when we stop guessing and start addressing the root.

But more than that…

This is what happens when we invite God into our healing.

“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” – Psalm 147:3

Healing isn’t just physical—it’s spiritual, emotional, and deeply personal.

Your body was created with wisdom. It wants to heal.

Sometimes, it just needs the right support… and your yes. 🤍

If you’ve been feeling stuck, dismissed, or discouraged—this is your reminder:

There is another way. And healing is possible for you too.

The world says weight loss needs a prescription. 💊

But often, your body just needs support. 🤍

God designed our bodies with incredible wisdom.

Hormones like GLP-1 help regulate hunger, blood sugar, and fullness. While medications are becoming popular, many women can support these same pathways naturally through simple daily habits.

Here are a few ways to work with the body God created:
• Add protein and fiber to every meal
• Eat slowly and seated to allow your body to recognize fullness
• Walk 10–15 minutes after meals to support blood sugar balance
• Move your body regularly in ways that feel nourishing
• Aim for 7–9 hours of restorative sleep
• Limit processed foods and build meals around whole foods
• Consider supportive supplements like berberine, probiotics, green tea extract, or yerba mate

Weight loss isn’t about fighting your body.

It’s about supporting the design God already placed within you.

When we nourish our bodies well, we honor the temple He entrusted to us. ✨

If you’re ready to address metabolism, hormones, and weight from a root-cause, faith-centered perspective, we’d love to support you at FVFM.
