When I first found out I was pregnant, I’ll admit I was completely lost and oblivious to all the pregnancy must-haves available. Instead of jumping right in and buying everything in sight, I took it slowly and observed my own changing body and what it needed and asked for. I’m still learning as I go, but I’m proud to report… Read More
This post is sponsored by Harvest Snaps. All opinions are my own. In the Winter, after I teach a barre class or finish my workout, I make a beeline toward home to hibernate. In the Spring, it’s not quite the same. The warmer weather and longer days mean that I make more plans and don’t mind spending extra time outside…. Read More
There was a time when clients would ask my advice about protein bars and I would steer them the other direction.

I was invited to attend as an… Read More
My obsession with all things barre lately is off the charts. Maybe it’s because I love how I feel so strong and energized after class at The Bar Method or maybe I just really love the grippy socks and open-back tanks. Either way, I put together this list of barre class essentials that I’m relying on regularly right now or… Read More
I have to admit, I haven’t started much holiday shopping yet. I’ve picked up a few items here and there but mostly I’ve been browsing online which led me to pulling together these holiday gifts for the health and fitness lover. I’ve always been a “one for them, one for me” kind of gifter meaning that I would buy a… Read More

I may be the odd one out here, but I think they’re curated and packaged thoughtfully and presentably and it gives the receiver an opportunity to discover products from a brand the gift-giver loves. So today I’m rounding up a few of my favorite healthy gift… Read More
