I’m at the halfway point and the mantra I’ve been tied to for the past two weeks has been “mind over matter.” I’ve encountered more hot, humid training days than pleasant ones and when my first instinct is to skip a workout or cut one short, I remind myself that most things worth working for require more mental strength than… Read More
Allow me to date myself and say that I’ve been out of college and working in the real world for 10 years. In all that time, yesterday was by far one of the most gratifying days of work I’ve ever had. I spent the day on my feet for eight hours in heels, chopping fruit and vegetables under a bright… Read More
Summer is certainly not for staying inside slaving away over a hot stove. This summer I’ve managed to “cook” more than usual but I haven’t sacrificed a moment of time spent outdoors. My secret is in simple recipes that require little to no time on the stove or in the oven. These are a few of my favorites you’ll find… Read More

But as much as I love wearing the perfect pair of shoes, I’ve actually fallen in love… Read More
At the beginning of last week, not only did I have a solid triathlon training plan in place, but I also had a stocked fridge. No sooner did I get a quick reminder that things don’t always go as planned. Week 1 Training Plan: Monday – Strength Tuesday – 30 min run Wednesday – Strength + 45 minute Bike Thursday… Read More
Sometimes life is about stepping outside of comfort zones. Reward often comes from feeling the fear and doing it anyway. Other times, it’s about having a do-over. This post is about the do-overs. I’m big on intention-setting and work with my clients to set intentions at the start of every year. Last December, I created a list of my own…. Read More
Meet Adriana. Before the Total Reset Plan she was a healthy eater who was stuck in a rut of her same-old, go-to meals. During and after she felt satisfied, energized and motivated in a way she never had before with food. Even her husband, Carl, was on board with the exciting meals she was cooking on the plan. Occupation: Organizational… Read More
