Someone literally said to me the other day…
“You’re like the dad in My Big Fat Greek Wedding with his Windex…except yours is Sol-U-Mel!”

And I DIED because…they’re not wrong. 😂😂😂

If you’ve seen the movie, you KNOW. Gus believes Windex can fix absolutely EVERYTHING.

Me: “Have you tried Sol-U-Mel?” 🤣
Sticky sticker residue? Sol-U-Mel.
Mystery stain on the carpet? Sol-U-Mel.
Something smells funky? Sol-U-Mel.
Gum where gum should NOT be? Sol-U-Mel.
Permanent marker? Sol-U-Mel.
Car needs detailing? Sol-U-Mel.
Stinky towels or laundry? Yep…Sol-U-Mel. 😂

I’ve used it for stains on clothes, carpet and upholstery, sticky messes, deodorizing, cleaning, laundry, car interiors and about 47 other random things. And just when I think I know everything it can do, somebody tells me another use. 🤯

The funny thing is, before I switched where I shopped, I had NO IDEA this stuff even existed.

Now?
You can pry it out of my hands. 😂

It’s one of those products I bought thinking, “Okay, I’ll try it…” and quickly became, “HOW DID I LIVE WITHOUT THIS?”

And honestly, that’s happened with so many things from my wellness store. Sometimes you just have to be willing to try something different. 🙃

Nobody warns you how much fall throws off sleep.

Earlier dark, later nights, and suddenly bedtime is a moving target.

I added RestEZ Sleep to my nightly routine a few weeks ago and it's made the wind-down so much easier for me!

COMMENT SLEEP and I'll tell you how I use it.

The second the air shifts, my lips know it before I do.

This has been sitting on my nightstand and in my bag since things started drying out, and it's the first thing that's actually kept up.

COMMENT FALL and I'll send you the details.

What if this was the LAST fall you ever had to say, “I really need to get this weight off”?

Or the last time a vacation popped up and your first thought was…
👙 “Oh great. Now I have to get bathing-suit ready.” 😂
I spent YEARS thinking that way. Lose the weight. Gain some back. Start over. Try something new. Repeat.
Until R3. ❤️

What I love about R3 is that the goal isn’t just to help you lose weight for the next vacation, wedding, holiday or swimsuit season.

It’s to teach you HOW to eat and live in a way that you can actually maintain long after the six weeks are over.

And I can tell you from personal experience…that part matters.

I’ve lost 50 pounds and, more importantly, I’ve learned how to KEEP it off. 🙌
That’s why I’m so excited about our 🍁 FIT FOR FALL 6-Week R3 Challenge starting October 5th!

For six weeks, we’re going to work on simple habits that build on each other, learn how to fuel our bodies better, work on those crazy cravings, and create a healthier lifestyle that doesn’t require starting over every January…or panicking every time someone books a beach vacation. 😂🏝️

🍁 6 weeks
🍁 Simple, doable changes
🍁 Lots of support + accountability
🍁 No crash dieting
🍁 And a plan you can actually LIVE with

Because wouldn’t it feel AMAZING to head into the holidays already feeling better instead of waiting until January 1st to start again?
I’m doing it right alongside you! 🙋🏼‍♀️❤️

Germ season and back to school always land on the same calendar.

Activate C is the simple daily habit I put in place before the sniffles start, not after. Everyone in my house uses this.

Nothing to prep, nothing complicated, just one less thing to think about once the school year gets moving.

Comment DEFENSE and I'll send you the details.

That first fall cold always seems to show up right on schedule.

For kids that went back to school...

New classroom, new germs, new normal for a few months.

We can't keep my kids in a bubble, but we can control what we use to support them!

Activate C is part of our routine and it's staying there through the holidays.

COMMENT DEFENSE and I'll send you what we use.

Fall sports and back to school landing in the same few weeks means a lot of shared water bottles, shared gear, and not much time to think about what's actually in the bag.

Here are five signs it's worth a second look, and what I'd swap first.

Swipe through, then comment SEASON and I'll help you sort out a lineup that covers the whole week.

Heat, contact, a packed schedule. Football season asks a lot of a young body, and magnesium is one of the most common nutrients that runs low in active kids and teens.

It plays a direct role in muscle function and recovery, the exact stuff getting worked at practice. This is the one I'd make sure is covered before the season gets busy, not after.

Comment MAGNESIUM and I'll walk you through it.

Apparently I have a type… pink, a little bougie, and anything that helps me wind down at night. 😂💗

At this stage of life, I am VERY protective of my sleep😂especially because I don’t get much with my mom getting up multiple times a night!

My nighttime routine has become one of those little things I genuinely look forward to. Magnesium to help me relax and unwind, my evening nutrition packet, comfy clothes… and apparently a hat reminding everyone who gets the bill. 🤣

Because waking up at 3am with my brain suddenly wanting to discuss every decision I’ve made since 1987?

No thank you. 😂

I’ve learned that I feel SO much better when I actually give my body the nutritional support it needs instead of just hoping for the best.

And if you’ve been around here awhile, you already know I’m a big believer that the little things we do consistently add up. ❤️

Now I need to know…
Are you one of those people who can fall asleep anywhere, anytime… or does your brain suddenly clock in for the night shift the minute your head hits the pillow? 😂👇🏼
