The biggest complaint or struggle I hear from people is that they don’t have time to cook healthy foods.

My absolute least favorite thing that happens is when 5 o’clock rolls around, I have a plan for dinner, only to realize that the ingredients I thought we had in the pantry weren’t in the pantry! Ugh. The worst.

To be honest, as much as I talk and share about food, I’m not one of those people that wake up thinking about dinner and go to sleep thinking about breakfast. I’m a “eat to survive” kinda girl, not a “live to eat” type of girl. And honestly, kind of scared to admit that because here I am sharing about wellness and giving advice about how to eat, but I’m not passionate about food. Let’s just say I’m a walking contradiction.

It’s no surprise that there are constantly conflicting messages out there about health and wellness. I mean, there are conflicting messages about everything in the world. That’s not news to you. But, maybe you’re here because you’re tired of the conflicting, and confusing health messages out there. “Never eat fat,” “carbs are bad” etc. Well, in short, here’s what you need to know about me: I don’t believe in completely cutting anything out of your diet (unless you have an allergy, of course). I believe you can live a healthy life while also eating french fries.

One of the most common questions I get asked is about is how to eat healthy while traveling. It’s definitely a challenge, but totally doable.

I remember in high school when the “organic” trend was just getting started. At that point, I had no idea what it meant or why it could be important. But, as I began to study Health Science in college and developing a love for wellness, I started to research and learn more about organic and conventional produce.

Looking for a healthy, easy, and delicious cookie recipe? Look no further! Oh, and did I mention there are only five ingredients?

It’s no secret that right after having a baby and starting to breastfeed, the hunger is REAL. Or was it just me? Maybe it’s the fact that you can barely find time to eat, or the hundreds of calories you’re burning by breastfeeding, but the hunger is real.
