Hey you guys. I’ve been in super contemplative m Hey you guys. I’ve been in super contemplative mood trying to sort through life. And I know I’m not alone. Almost all of you I’ve been talking to have been going through similar versions of a hard time. I had one of those days where I couldn’t get out of bed the other day. Such a bizarre feeling for me to feel a lack of inner drive. I let myself indulge for a day and then forced myself out of it. One of the great gifts of our digitally connected world is that we can support each other. And the best way to help yourself is to help someone else. Message me if you’re feeling like life has been squashing you. I’ll try and lend an ear and offer up some of the strategies that have helped me. Fresh air! Going for a run! Doing things that elevate your physical state always alter your emotions. One thing is for sure, when my kids hug me and tell me I’m a great mom it brightens up the day. For me it’s the little yummy things. I’m excited about all of this because we often have to hit rock bottom in order to make necessary changes in our life. If you’re lonely or down it might be a good thing. You have the potential to emerge with great insight and find the fuel to change. Sending you love and I’m here to support you! Ps I searched hashtags and covid blues is a thing haha. #covidblues #dailyinspo
My little yogi enjoying his new favorite breakfast My little yogi enjoying his new favorite breakfast creation @dahlicious. I’m not a big fan of diary (neither is this guys tummy) so when I found out these DAH! yogurts were dairy free and actually yummy I was psyched! Plant based, made from almond milk, and filled with probiotics which is great for gut health! Liam is getting ready to do gymnastics and I’m glad he won’t have a dairy belly after this! I’ll be trying out some dairy free smoothies and other fun recipes with this DAH! yogurt. Check out more in my stories and how to get some for yourself! Find more of their products on their website (swipe up link in stories) at www.dahlicious.com and head over to their feed @Dahlicious #DAH!AtHome #MomentsofDAH! #DAHpartner
We haven’t been baking much from scratch this su We haven’t been baking much from scratch this summer but this super easy (gluten free) and Uber moist flourless chocolate mousse cake has my heart. Snag the recipe on my website, link in bio! #whatsfordessert #chocolatecakerecipe
The freedom to take your yoga or fitness practice The freedom to take your yoga or fitness practice on the road is more crucial than ever. With physical gyms and studios not always an option it’s empowering to create a home practice. How do you find inspo? Do you use apps or are you doing any zoom practices etc? I’m brainstorming ways I can help support you at home. #homepractice #outdooryoga
Hey you guys some of wanted to see the guac board Hey you guys some of wanted to see the guac board here’s what the prep looked like when we filmed it. Have fun and get creative! I’m super curious how your home cooking is going. Are you cooking more than usual? What challenges are you facing? What help are you looking for? ❤️#coronacooking #guacamole🥑
We’ve been keeping food around here really simpl We’ve been keeping food around here really simple this summer! I really can’t stand being in the kitchen all day when it’s so gorgeous outside so I’ve developed so many shortcuts and hacks. Last night I marinated the steaks for dinner so cleanup happened all at once (raw meat makes a mess!) and I’m pairing it with my guacamole board for a starter. If you haven’t watched my video on assembling a guac board it’s so much fun! Everyone makes their own mess! Pairing this all with some @alexiafoods sweet potato fries (no prep!) and a salad with a dressing I made to last the week. Hey Monday, you got this. #easydinner #fastdinner
Reflections...Captured our backyard pond reflectin Reflections...Captured our backyard pond reflecting the mountains...no matter how hard the day has been or how wild the world is right now, stepping outside to appreciate the magnificence reminds me that life is incredible. I’m thinking that the best way to navigate our year ahead is to dance through the darkness. I’ve been talking about this a lot in my posts and stories but I’m convinced that if we are just prepared for a wild year we can choose to party through it instead of mourn the turbulence. Wanna? 🎉 🎈 lots of love from montana. #covidlife #montana2020
If you haven’t watched how easy it is to whip up If you haven’t watched how easy it is to whip up this crazily colorful spiralized salad check out my latest IGTV just posted! It would be a great accompaniment to a weekend bbq or picnic with a super fresh lemon vinaigrette. Hope you enjoy! Happy weekend! 😎#saladrecipe #foodyouwant
Tonight I’m whipping up my (noodle-less!) zucchi Tonight I’m whipping up my (noodle-less!) zucchini lasagna for dinner! It’s a fast day today in the Jewish calendar and it gets dark so late so by the time we break the fast it’ll be close to 9pm. I’ll probably serve up some scrambled eggs and a green salad alongside. Anyone else fasting and planning dinner already? 😉 #paleolasagna #zuccininoodles
So with possible closures around the world I think So with possible closures around the world I think we women gotta embrace roots and ponytails for a while! I gotta say, I’m enjoying not having to glam like, ever, these days. The fanciest I’ve gotten this summer is mascara and cowboy boots! Most days I rotate between workout clothing and pj’s-and I’m loving it! Meanwhile I’m pretty obsessed with my new @rodanandfields regimen I’ll tell you more about that when I find my favorite products...but giving your skin some serious downtime from makeup allows it to shine. How bout you? #naturalbeauty #loveyourself

This memory from a few summers ago when the rodeo This memory from a few summers ago when the rodeo in town was on☺️now we just have this pic to remember because everything is shut down obv this year. The best we can do is love everyday, remember the past-BE HERE NOW- and dream of a great future. As Covid is impacting us all over again i am choosing to see this fall as an opportunity for radical awesomeness. I don’t yet know what that looks like but here are some things I’m looking forward to! 😀KIDS: enriching them with activities they’d normally not have time to do. For ex: mine learned how to skateboard, do back handsprings! 😀MARRIAGE: relishing the time we have together before life and travel and day-to-day resumes and we go back to being apart more than we’d like. 😀FITNESS: upping my game. Trying new things. Crafting my personal flexible workout series you can do from anywhere, everyday. 😀WORK 1: digging deep into how I can be of service and do what I love. Yeah, even during a pandemic. Friends and small biz owners contacting me about going digital and working flexibly and remotely. Now is the time to go big. 😀WORK 2: or don’t. You can take time off. I was certainly paralyzed in the spring just managing my day to day let alone dreaming big. It’s however you feel. I’m personally over the hump and motivated to do something of meaning. But your meaning could be taking a backseat because, really, you can. 😀FOOD: I’ve stopped anguishing over how much I have to cook. Now, I’m loving feeding my family (and teaching them how to feed themselves!!). Pulling hacks, shortcuts and various other fast-track dinner tricks to ensure I do not slave over meals daily. 😀MINDSET: I’ve shifted from planning to being. None of us can plan for the next year ish right? So let’s stop? I’ve also let go of expectation/anticipation of what will be. Somehow makes it all easier if I recognize, hey, this is the reality. For our foreseeable future. So I wanna make it freaking great. Join me in making this year f-ing great? #beunstoppable
Flashback to days working with @lanecrawford we ha Flashback to days working with @lanecrawford we had a ton of fun creating an athleasure campaign for them. My creative juices are flowing this month. Anyone else sometimes feel stuck in ‘ought to’s’ and ‘should’s’ instead of deep desires and dreams? It’s way easier to get caught up what we think we should do instead of our deepest callings. In case you’re new here-some of my favorite people to follow for big picture inspo! @tonyrobbins @simonsinek @brendonburchard @amyporterfield Keeping y’all posted on my journey as I reimagine what’s possible! #dreambig #handstandsdaily
Well hello summer breakfast pops! I was so excited Well hello summer breakfast pops! I was so excited while developing this recipe for my cookbook-chia and coconut snuggle up in a bowl to create a thick pudding like texture+blended fruit. Keep in the freezer for the quickest breakfast! You could also consider replacing the chia coconut with yogurt and playing around with colors and flavors. I think my book is on sale on amazon. Check it out if you’d like. BIO. Happy Friday happy😎#what’sforbreakfast

Last night we drove out on atv’s and got a glimp Last night we drove out on atv’s and got a glimpse of this purple sunset. Passed by neighboring cows, horses and donkeys on the way home. I could have sat there for hours reveling in the innocence of the animals and the beauty of the earth. Reminds me of how nature has a way of releasing our problems and stresses, even if only temporarily. As I stood, whispering to the cows, I thought: If only they knew the slaughter that lies ahead. But they don’t. They just graze and live until their final days. It might be a stretch here-to take lessons from cows-but imagine, even if just for a day, you didn’t think about your future. Only this moment. I am the worst at this. My default is always to plan (and worry). But when I really try, and I’m trying, I just live. Right now. What will be, when leave this magical place and go back to our everyday, doesn’t matter. Today life is good. Be amazing today. #montanalife #begreat
We have been obsessively sipping @lacroixwater all We have been obsessively sipping @lacroixwater all summer! I think the the thing I miss the most when we aren’t in the US are these little cans of flavored sparking happiness. But have no fear, you can make your own infused sparkling water at home. I like to keep a large glass overflowing with fruit by my desk and add sparking water all day long to stay happily quenched. Recipe in my cookbook or concoct your own version! #sparklingwater #foodyouwant
