Dear [FIRST NAME GOES HERE], Introducing.... I know, I know. It’s still just the middle of October. But you know what’s just a few weeks away? The beginning of peak holiday season. Halloween kicks off a very busy few months for all of us, so it never hurts to get ahead and work on organizing and planning as much of those upcoming festivities as possible. Imagine yourself…this could be the year you actually enjoy the holidays instead of feeling like the busiest elf in Santa’s workshop. To that...

Dear [FIRST NAME GOES HERE], Ever notice how the pull of instant gratification—like grabbing that bag of chips when you’re stressed or eating ice cream after a long day—feels impossible to resist? That’s limbic friction at work. Your limbic system is the brain’s emotional center, driving automatic behaviors (aka System 1 thinking). It’s fast and instinctive, but when it comes to building sustainable food habits, this friction can derail us from our goals. Limbic friction is the mental...

Dear [FIRST NAME GOES HERE], How much of your day is spent doing what you need to do versus what you want to do? Chances are, it’s pretty skewed. Most of us are consumed by the daily grind—laundry, school drop-offs, commuting to work—with much less time for the things we actually enjoy. If I had a 100% “want” day, it would include a yoga class, a delicious vegan lunch (made by someone else, of course), and an afternoon filled with spa treatments, music, and time with my favorite people. The...

Dear [FIRST NAME GOES HERE], As the days get shorter and the air gets crisper, it’s the perfect time to update your self-care routine to align with the new season. If you’re someone who experiences Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), this is especially important. Making small but intentional shifts in how we care for ourselves can have a profound impact on our mood, energy levels, and overall well-being as the colder months roll in. Here are six simple ways to help you feel more grounded,...

Dear [FIRST NAME GOES HERE], One of the core principles I teach my clients who are just starting to incorporate healthier foods into their diets is the "yes, and" approach. Rather than saying "no" to certain foods because they're processed or not considered healthy enough, we say "yes, and." Want a muffin? Great! Have an apple with it. Craving some classic cold cereal? Awesome—add berries and flax seeds on top. The idea is to “buffer” whatever you’re eating with a protein, healthy fat, and/or...

Dear [FIRST NAME GOES HERE] A lot of people tell me they’re “all or nothing” when it comes to eating and exercise. It makes sense—we’re conditioned to think in extremes: success vs. failure, good vs. bad, happy vs. sad. But few of us naturally operate in the gray areas, especially when it comes to living a healthy lifestyle. Our food culture complicates this. We swing between extreme restriction or overeating. We either run miles after a workout or sit on the couch, feeling stuck. The...

Dear [FIRST NAME GOES HERE] We all crave motivation—the surge of excitement that pushes us to take action. But for many, it’s fleeting, unreliable, and often vanishes as quickly as it arrives. We chase it, only to find it slipping away, showing up sporadically when we’re desperate or at rock bottom. But there’s a better way: momentum. Momentum is that powerful force that keeps you moving once you’ve taken the first step. Unlike motivation, it doesn’t rely on willpower or sheer force. It’s...
