We're supporting Breast Cancer Awareness Month at OX Naturals because, honestly, we need our moms around—healthy and thriving at home where they belong. Early detection and research funding literally save lives, and that's something we can all get behind. Let's keep spreading awareness so more families get to keep their loved ones. 💗

It's the last day of Bone and Joint Health National Awareness Week—let's talk menopause.

This weekend, we completed the Menopause walk and learned so much!

As estrogen levels drop during menopause, many women experience joint stiffness, aches, and increased risk of osteoporosis. That morning stiffness? The creaky knees? You're not imagining it—hormonal changes affect cartilage, bone density, and inflammation throughout your body.

But here's the good news: there's so much you can do to support your joints and bones during this transition.

Simple ways to find relief:

✨ Gentle stretching daily (yoga and tai chi are amazing)
✨ Massage with pain-relief oils (arnica, peppermint, or CBD oils)
✨ Weight-bearing exercise to maintain bone density
✨ Anti-inflammatory foods (think omega-3s, turmeric, leafy greens)
✨ Stay hydrated—your joints need it
✨ Consider calcium + vitamin D supplements
✨ Low-impact movement like swimming or walking

Your body is changing, but you can still feel strong and mobile. Listen to your body, move gently, and give yourself grace. 🌸

New month, new boundaries. 🌱

October is your permission slip to protect your peace, mama.

You don't have to explain every "no." You don't have to fill every silence. You don't have to be everything to everyone.

Your boundaries aren't walls—they're the foundation that keeps you standing. And when you stand strong, so does your family.

This month, practice saying:
- "That doesn't work for me"
- "I need some time to think"
- "I'm not available then"

No guilt. No apologies. Just clarity.

Your energy is sacred. Guard it. 💛

Today, I honor the woman who made me — the mother who gave everything she had, even when her own heart was heavy.

My mom, Linda, battled silently with mental illness. She was strong, loving, and complex — and she taught me more than she ever knew.

Her journey is the heartbeat behind OX Naturals. Her memory lives in every product, every post, and every mother I help move from chaos to calm.

To every mother out there:
You are seen. You are enough. You deserve peace.

Let’s not just survive motherhood — let’s learn to enjoy it, heal in it, and be fully present for ourselves, too.

Happy Mother’s Day.
This one’s for my mother. And yours.
💛💚🤎

📢 Why I Started This Business & Why Mental Health Advocacy Matters

I started this journey in honor of my mother, who lost her battle with mental illness. Her struggle, and the struggles of so many others, showed me how critical it is to create spaces for healing, self-care, and organization in our lives. Mental wellness isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity.

Through my brand, I help women take control of their lives, set boundaries, and create calm from chaos.

Whether it’s through life organization, natural wellness products, or my coaching, every piece of what I do is rooted in the belief that mental health should be prioritized, not pushed aside.

That’s why I stand with NAMI’s Mental Health Movement, demanding better mental health support, research, and access to care. Change starts when we raise our voices and take action. You can be a part of this movement by signing the petition to push for better mental health policies and support.
