Here are a few hormone balancing snack ideas. Make sure to combine healthy fats with protein, fiber and quality carbs. My favorite grab and gos are an apple with almond butter, greek yogurt with berries, or a boiled egg with turkey and an orange.

Whether you are headed back to school like my 3 college kids or need a few snacks to get you through the day, make sure they keep your blood sugar stable and your support your overall health.

The Environmental Working group just announced the 2025 list! Reduce your toxic load by buying organic when possible, especially off the dirty dozen list. Two new foods made the list this year- blackberries and potatoes. Over 95% of samples had pesticide residue on them.

See slide #2 for the clean fifteen! 🙌
Stay informed and healthy friends!

Do you want to feed your family healthy homemade meals but struggle with decision fatigue, energy, and time? You aren’t alone! I hear this almost everyday! As women of the home, we were given a deep desire to care for our family with ALL the things that will help them flourish. When it doesn’t happen, we beat ourselves up and feel guilty. Women today carry such heavy loads that something has to give and dinners is one of them! 🥴If this sounds like you, here is ONE simple meal idea for the month. Repeat it each week! Start slow. If this is all you get on the table this week, GREAT! After a couple weeks, add one more new simple meal. Stacking small wins gives our brains the evidence it needs to take on bigger wins. I personally tend to take on lofty goals and then get discouraged and quite. What about you? Idea:
This week, pick one day to order curbside or grocery shop for a few simple ingredients. Maybe grab items for breakfast and lunch such as eggs, cottage cheese, oats and fruit. Next, double or triple your purchase of chicken breasts or chicken thighs. Pick one day/night to grill or bake enough for 1 family dinner and leftovers for lunch sandwiches or another simple dinner. That’s it! Start there! The other nights can be frozen meals or take out until you build momentum!

This meal is a fan fav. Here is your grocery list:

❇️Chicken breast or thighs (enough for 3-4 family portions)
❇️chicken seasoning- I use
❇️Kerrygold cheese or family fav cheese
❇️1-2 avocados
❇️1-2 mangos
❇️cherry tomatoes
❇️lime, sea salt and pepper
❇️romaine, spinach or mixed lettuce
❇️peaches
❇️dressing- lemon, olive oil, honey blend
❇️optional starch

❇️Grill or bake the chicken one night and add cheese slices to the hot chicken. Chop and mix the avocado, mango and tomatoes and top the chicken. Create a simple salad and add to the plate. For hungry, active family members, add 1/4-1/2 cup of rice, sourdough or small potatoes on the side.
💚JOY tip - make extra rice or potatoes for the next day and create a dinner bowl with the leftover rice and cube the leftover chicken. Throw in 1 new roasted veggie such as broccoli or green beans and 💥 you now have 2 dinners!

Bread, fish, lamb, figs, pomegranate, olives, and honey were primarily on the menu in Jesus time. I often think about this and dream of how it tasted. Unfortunately our food system has changed tremendously and so have our bodies. I honestly can’t recommend most breads in grocery stores but I recently found - a local bakery in Dripping Springs and the bread is amazing! Fresh and made daily with milled grains and fermented slowly to pre-digest the flour. No nasty fillers and no bloating! I can get behind this for special occasions and that is what we did today. Easter brunch was so good and SO easy! Here ya go:

🔸1 sweet tea sourdough loaf
🔸2 avocados
🔸wild smoked salmon
🔸1/4 chopped red onion
🔸1 handful of arugula
🔸1 lemon
🔸Hemp seeds
🔸everything but the bagel seasoning

🔶slice the bread in thin slices and toast. Spread a thin layer of avocado on top of each piece. Add the arugula and top with salmon. Drizzle a small amount of lemon, h**p seeds, onion and seasoning on top. That’s it! Beautiful huh?! I guess orange was the color this year 🧡

Happy Easter everyone!

Check it out! My daughter is finishing up her freshman year in college and has developed a passion for helping students learn how to fuel well on campus or in their first home away from home. She is a certified personal trainer and working on her Exercise Science degree while prepping for her first bodybuilding competition next Fall. Megan has always enjoyed taking care of her temple and loves creating simple and delicious meals. Sound familiar? Yes, we are cut from the same cloth!

Check out the flyer for more details and reach out to her with questions. 🙌

This is a peep into trainer JOY’s day! Yep, I eat a lot! I have to say though, I never really crave processed or sweet foods because I fill up on protein and colorful whole foods with a lot of fiber. I honestly don’t enjoy cooking elaborate meals either. My trick has always been to shop 2-3 days a week for fresh produce and different sources of protein AND then cook at home. Yes, it takes some time but we make time for what is important to us.

Today, my meals consisted of a few similar items because I had the chicken breast already made and avocados I needed to use. While I was prepping this very simple Mediterranean salad, I sautéed 1 lb of ground turkey to eat in a couple of Joy bowls the rest of the week. Easy!

I have no idea how many calories this is but I do know I’m on target because I have low body fat, a healthy weight, strong muscle and bones, sustained energy, and sleep pretty good. Am I perfect? Heck no! I just know what fuels my temple best and keeps me powered to live out Gods purpose for me. I give Him the glory for my health and pray he will use me to help others, even if it’s just one person.

If interested, here is one of my favorite bible verses to meditate on- “I appeal to you therefore, brothers(and sisters!), by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual act of worship. Do not be conformed to the patterns of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you will be able to discern what is the will of God, what is good, acceptable and perfect.”Romans 12:1-2

Much ❤️ and health to you my friends! I pray many blessings over you tonight!

As we get older, it is normal to loose some muscle mass. Research shows it starts as early as age 30. At age 50, it accelerates even more. For women, the drop in estrogen during menopause makes the body composition changes even worse. 😫Not only do we loose muscle but we gain fat around the midline. The only way to slow this natural process down is through consistent strength training. Lifting weights will not only build muscle but will help with bone density, balance and agility.

So how often? I lift at least 2-3 days a week for an hour each time. The other days I enjoy long walks or a 25 minute HIIT session( quick 20-30 sec all out sprints followed by 1-2 min rest). I also firmly believe in taking rest days when your body tells you to. On days I was robbed of sleep, I take the day off or just walk the dog. Listen to your body. On good days, lift and do HIIT. You will hear so many different things on social media. No two people are the same. Get with a trainer who understands this time period and can help you. I now know from experience that nobody understands it better than someone who has gone through it. I think about my 25 year old trainer self and laugh. 🤣Those sweet 50/60 year old women probably should not have trusted me to train them.

Menopause is a crazy transition but it doesn’t have to be all doom and gloom. Keep going. You’ll get through it! You are not “too old” and you CAN still look and feel your best with some consistent effort. 🙌

Joy to table dinner in a flash ⏱️ It doesn’t get any easier than this!

Seasoned Mahi Mahi over 1 cup Cauliflower rice with a green salad. 🥗 My salad consisted of spinach, green bell peppers, tomatoes, mushrooms, pistachios and a drizzle of olive oil and feta. Have fun with the cauliflower rice. I added herbs, kerrygold butter and sea salt to the pot.

This dish was so good and was loaded with omega 3s, micronutrients and 30 grams of protein! 💥

*️⃣Costco sells pre-riced organic cauliflower in the freezer section. I also bought individual wrapped wild mahi filets at Costco. My greens came from a local farm but you can find organic produce at Costco now too. 🙌
