In honor of Mother’s Day 🤍 // One of my favorite ways to support new parents is by dropping off a nourishing meal a few months after baby arrives 💌

This is when visitors slow down, routines shift, and balanced meals can feel really hard to put together.

This postpartum meal kit included:
✨ salsa verde chicken enchiladas
✨ fresh salsa + high-fiber black bean & corn salad
✨ avocado + mango for freshness and flavor
✨ hydration options (because that piece matters too 👀)
✨ extra protein, toppings, and easy snacks
✨ labeled containers to make everything simple to grab and assemble

The goal isn’t perfection but it’s creating meals that are supportive, balanced, comforting, and require minimal brain power during a season that can feel exhausting.

Food is one of my favorite ways to show love, and this felt especially meaningful on a day celebrating moms 🤍

Simple, nourishing, and Boss Babe approved 💅🏻

Save this for the next time a friend has a baby, or send it to someone who’d appreciate the inspo ✨

☕️Coffee & Clarity // 2026: Episode 8 - Nutrition on an GLP-1??

GLP-1s can be incredibly effective… but here’s what most people don’t realize 👀

These medications can also make it harder to meet your nutrition needs!

Because of reduced appetite, slower digestion, and side effects like nausea or constipation, many people unintentionally end up:

→ eating too little overall
→ falling short on protein
→ not getting enough fiber
→ underhydrating

And over time? That can impact energy, muscle mass, digestion, habit building & overall results👎🏻

✨This is why nutrition matters SO much on a GLP-1.

Instead of just eating less, the goal is to eat more intentionally.

My go-to foundations for patients on GLP-1s:
✔️ Protein first
✔️ Fiber forward
✔️ Hydration consistently
✔️ Small, frequent meals
✔️ Eating routinely (don’t skip meals!)

Think simple, realistic, and sustainable 💚

And don’t forget — tools like protein shakes, smoothies, fiber supplements, and easy-to-digest meals can absolutely help support intake when appetite is low.

Because sometimes…
👉🏻something is better than nothing.

Save this for later & send it to someone navigating GLP-1 nutrition 👀☕️✨

Boss Babe Approved Lunch✨🥗// 10 minutes. Zero cooking. Still hitting your protein + fiber goals🥕💪🏻⏱️

This is my go-to when I’m running between patients and need something quick, balanced, and actually satisfying.

And I know I’m not the only one…

If you’ve ever skipped lunch because you “didn’t have time” - this is your sign 👀

My go-to PFC formula:
✨ Protein → to keep you full
✨ Fiber → for steady energy + gut health
✨ Color → because we’re not doing boring meals here

What’s on my plate today:
• Nashville Hot Chicken Stick
• 2 hard-boiled eggs
• Mozzarella string cheese
• original crackers
• BB edamame hummus
• Carrots + cucumber

Simple. Balanced. Actually doable. 🙌🏻👏🏻

☕️ Coffee & Clarity // 2026: Episode 7 – What is a GLP-1?✨

GLP-1s are everywhere right now 👀

But what ARE they and what do they actually DO?

Let’s break it down ☕️✨

GLP-1 RA (glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist) is a hormone your body already makes that helps regulate:
✔️ blood sugar
✔️ appetite
✔️ digestion
✔️ fullness

Every time you eat, it’s released but it only sticks around for a few minutes..

GLP-1 medications (like semaglutide + tirzepatide) mimic this hormone BUT last much longer in the body!

That’s why people often notice:
→ feeling full faster
→ fewer cravings
→ less “food noise”
→ weight loss
→ improved blood sugar control

But here’s the key 👇🏻

These medications don’t replace nutrition - they work WITH it 👏🏻

If you want sustainable results, what and how you eat still matters!

✨ And that’s where most people need guidance.

🎥 Next up: how GLP-1s can impact your nutrition and what to focus on to support your body (this is the part most people miss!)

Filming Day at Stanford 🎬// Weight loss medications and bariatric surgery are powerful tools - but what you do with them matters even more ✨

I had the opportunity to contribute to a course in development with the Stanford Center for Health Education focused on obesity, metabolism, and weight management - bringing evidence-based education to providers and health professionals worldwide.

Such a fun experience collaborating with an incredible team and chatting with Christopher Gardner 🍊⚖️🧬

My role? Breaking down the real-life nutrition side of bariatric surgery + GLP-1s - what actually changes with appetite, digestion, and eating patterns and HOW to best support your long-term nutrition goals 👍🏻

Because here’s the thing…medications and surgery can be powerful tools BUT they’re not the full solution! 👏🏻

Learning how to nourish your body, building sustainable habits, and working with a dietitian is what truly makes the difference when it comes to losing weight, maintaining it, and feeling your best long-term!

So grateful to be part of this project and share the dietitian’s perspective - more to come soon 🤍
