Making "Healthy" Simple | No Cheat Day Needed For those of you who might have cravings but don't want to completely blow calories. This guy has been around for a while. He's got different calculators on there, recipes, reviews, blogs etc. Check it out!!! I follow him on IG too!

Sup y'all! As some of you may know, I am a huge advocate for mental health. Not only is my partner a Licensed Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist, but I have had the opportunity to have my own therapy and experience some really cool modalities with that which has helped in my own healing. I am very passionate about how nutrition can aid in our healing and studies do show a ton of benefits for our mental health when that is improved. I'd like to share a simple article about some ways to boost your mental health by switching some things up with nutrition: Mood Food: How to fight depression naturally with nutrition. Another great resource is the book "Food for Thought" by Dr. Lisa Goehler Food for Thought: Changing How We Feel By Changing How We Eat: Goehler Ph.D., Lisa E, Trafton Ph.D., Jodie A, Zimmerman M.S., Joan M, Gaykema, Mara: 9780983246572: Amazon.com: Books You can get it used really cheap! Happy Wednesday!

Alright, so the economy continues to screw us over (yay!). But, there are ways we can still eat healthier without breaking the bank. I did a quick google of "the average meal out cost in 2026" for one person and here is what I got: Fast food = $10-$25 Casual/Fine = $25-$50+ A lot of you are on the coasts and I believe you're likely paying more (idk you can tell me below lol). My partner and I consider it a win if we go out to eat and it's under $100 here in kansas city. Anyway, some of that is to also highlight just where we put our investments for our health. Recently, I adjusted my coaching service packages to reflect my goal of making nutrition & fitness more accessible for everyone. There is this group which has a subscription of $30/mo and you have access to my help always, resources, hopping on calls etc. My suggestion is the plan & set a limit on the number of times you eat out. I never suggest to just never eat out lol we are social creatures, but more so to just help plan and stay on track with your goals. For those you may not feel they have the cooking skills, which makes this shit hard too, take a look at this link: Learn To Cook At Home. This website has a plethora of tools/articles at the ready for you as well. My personal favorite, when just talking about good, healthy home-cooked food is: NYT Cooking - Recipes and Cooking Guides From The New York Times. This is LIFE for me. I use NYT cooking multiple times a week. It can help reduce food waste as well by searching the ingredients you have at home and whipping up the recipe. You can also search by the amount of time you want the meal to be complete (20-30 minutes). Their recipes are 🔥, for real. I would recommend this if you're more savvy in the kitchen BUT if you are trying to learn a bit more, search the "easy" recipes and explore those. Happy Saturday!!! ~Coach Em

Since I like to go off script, during our meet and greet the topic of protein powders came up. Historically, protein powders can be disgusting, and I guarantee 90% of us have had to choke one down at some point or another. With that being said, I have a resource of protein powders that are actually good, aren't chalky, and explain when/why you would choose one over the others. Please save this and read through it. Post any questions you have below! Coach Em
