Our Stay at Blackberry Farm | Blackberry Farm Review | Marissa Vicario

Our Stay at Blackberry Farm

11/08/22

In mid-October, we booked our stay at Blackberry Farm. Blackberry Farm was always a dream getaway for me. It’s booked at least a year in advance so I never thought we’d have the chance to go. Somehow, David made it work and surprised me with a two-day trip! We had the nicest, coziest stay at Blackberry Farm. It truly re-charged… Read More

Los Cabos Travel Guide: Where to Stay in Los Cabos

11/01/22

This Summer we took a family trip to Los Cabos. We stayed at two different luxury hotels during our 10 day trip – Montage Los Cabos and Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal. That said, I’m writing this Los Cabos Travel Guide comparing the Montage vs. Waldorf Astoria. If you’re considering where to stay in Los Cabos, you’ll want to read… Read More

Sakara Life Pricing Hacks

10/08/22

Several months ago I wrote an honest Sakara Life Review entitled, “Is Sakara Worth It?” My short answer to that question is “yes.” Keeping in mind that as a luxury product, Sakara Life pricing is on the higher side. However, there are now many options for cutting costs if you’re on a budget. EXCLUSIVE SAKARA LIFE DISCOUNT: USE CODE XOMARISSAV FOR 20%… Read More

Women's Macro Coach | Marissa Vicario

Counting Macros for Weight Loss Changed My Relationship with Food

10/07/22

If I told you that counting macros for weight loss changed my body and my relationship with food, would you believe me? In all my years as a Health Coach, I’ve never been into diets. My methodology was this: workout, eat healthy and control cravings. Sounds simple enough and it worked for me, for the most part. But, I never… Read More

Wellness Trends at Expo East | Marissa Vicario

Wellness Trends at Expo East 2022

10/03/22

Last week I traveled to Philadelphia for Natural Products Expo East 2022. This was the show’s second year in Philly and it was much busier compared to Expo East 2021. Every time I go, I’m looking for the most popular wellness trends at Expo East and this year that trend was beverages. Beverages on Trend at Expo East There was… Read More

Disney world with a toddler

Disney World with a Toddler

07/19/22

I have a confession: I have never been into Disney. In fact, the thought of going to Disney World with a Toddler never appealed to me at all. I went once or twice as a kid, but after that, nothing in me wanted to go back. Then I had my daughter, and that all changed. Suddenly, I couldn’t wait until she was… Read More

Toddler Must Haves (1-3 years)

03/31/22

It seems like forever ago I wrote out my list of baby registry must haves (because it was!). Now that I’ve been raising a toddler, it seems only only right that I follow up with my list of Toddler must haves. These are some items that have either worked for us or that I can’t live without. However, when it… Read More

 Holistically Hot Transformation

How I Turned My Passion Into a Business: Next Generation.TV

Winter workouts hit different - physically and men Winter workouts hit different - physically and mentally - and here's why:

Boost your mood to prevent seasonal effectiveness disorder (SAD) aka "the Winter Blues"

Releases a fat burning hormone to avoid Winter weight gain

Gets your blood flowing to regular body temperature 

Strengthens your immune system 

While it may be harder to motivate in the Winter, maintaining a fitness routine will keep you consistent throughout the year, an important factor in seeing progress and results. 

My next TRIM group starts January 18 and includes weekly effective workouts for all levels. Sign up now before the new year rush at: https://app.trimbootcamp.com/trainer/marissa-mcfarland/
Pasta has a bad reputation for being high in carbs Pasta has a bad reputation for being high in carbs. First of all, there's absolutely nothing wrong with carbs or pasta, but did you know you can also get a good hit of protein with your pasta?

These are some of my favorite higher protein pasta alternatives:

1. Egg Fetttuccine - hear me out on this one. It doesn't offer more protein than a serving of regular white pasta at 8 grams but there's something that sets it apart for me and that's its denser, chewier texture. I choose this over white pasta often especially with tomato-based sauces. Bump up the protein content with chicken or shrimp which pair well with this.

2. Red Lentil Pasta - Even my daughter is a fan of this one. It clocks in at 25 grams of protein per serving and it's also high in fiber. 

3. Yellow Pea Pasta - I love this one for a macaroni and cheese-style recipe (or a dairy-free version made with butternut squash). It has 17 grams of protein and is also fiber-rich. 

There are many more high protein options like whole wheat, chickpea and black bean pasta, but these three are my faves. Have you tried any of these? If so, what did you think?
I stopped at @target for a few things and this swe I stopped at @target for a few things and this sweater caught my eye. I wondered if it was meant to be a "tacky Christmas sweater" for several minutes (my husband even asked me if we were going to an ugly Christmas sweater party when I put it on) while simultaneously imagining all the ways I would style it and I said F it and bought it anyway!

I love the non-traditional Fair Isle print. it's also soft and not itchy. This and everything else I'm wearing is linked on my @shop.ltk or go here: https://liketk.it/4pwvt (I swear, one day I will automate my links!)

After a long IG hiatus when I became a Mom, I felt After a long IG hiatus when I became a Mom, I felt lost here on this platform, but in March, I re-committed to it. I decided I could continue playing small so everyone would like me/ I wouldn't offend anyone or I could take up the space I was meant to so I could reach and help more people. Spending more time and energy here has had some incredible and unexpected returns including growing my audience, landing new brand partnerships with @adidas and @madewell to name a couple and making virtual connections with supportive women with whom I have things in common and who are also showing up here in a big way for their own reasons. 

Putting yourself "out there" publicly on any platform be it social media, a newsletter or in-person events is never an easy thing to do. To my friends - both virtual and IRL - clients and colleagues who have been supportive of how I show up, it means the world to me. 💚💋✌🏻
