Read, watch, listen:

We took the crew to see Inside Out 2 and it was so good! It was better than I was expecting and we’d see it again.

Taking all of the parenting hacks I can get. 

Don’t forget to listen to this week’s podcast episode here!

Fitness, health, and good eats:

Olive Mush! I was waiting for this to be back in stock and snagged it up the second it was back. I can’t do regular caffinated coffee (I’ve been drinking decaf for years), and this is a great coffee alternative with 100% olive leaf/hydroxytyrosol, organic cacao, mediterranean herbs and functional mushrooms. It tastes chocolate-y and spiced (almost like a chai) and I love it with almond milk.

I’m a huge fan of adaptogens and functional mushrooms, and this is a great way to get in these superfoods with the benefits of olive leaf/hydroxytyrosol. You can get yours here!

Runnnnn to Costco for this meat! It has simple ingredients and is a great easy protein sour

Is your sweet tooth calling? I’ve rounded up 10 healthy gluten-free dessert recipes that will satisfy any craving. 

You all know it’s rare to have a day go by that I don’t treat myself to something sweet. I fill up on greens and protein, but I love a healthy dessert. Whether you’re looking for a celebratory recipe or just need something to satisfy your sweet tooth, I’ve rounded up 10 healthy gluten-free dessert recipes that are to die for.

From chocolate almond coconut bites to crunchy strawberry truffles and our go-to chocolate chip cookie recipe, there is something for everyone. These recipes are great for anyone, even if you’re not following a gluten-free diet! You’ll notice that all of these recipes contain chocolate… because let’s be real, what’s dessert without chocolate!? Enjoy!

10 Healthy Gluten-Free Desserts

1. Crunchy Almond Butter Chocolate Bars

These crunchy almond butter chocolate bars are a quick, healthy, and delicious gluten-free dessert or treat idea. They call for all gluten-free ingredients, only take 10 minutes of active prep, and can be easily tweaked for my vegan friends.

2. Collagen Protein Brownies

These gluten-free and dairy-free brownies are packed with protein and healthy fats. They make an awesome healthy dessert, and have a fudgy texture. You’ll love them!

3. Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Cookie Cake

Dud someone say gluten-free cake!? This healthy COOKIE CAKE has a bonus dose of protein and healthy fats. It uses rice flour instead of regular or gluten-free all-purpose flour, so it’s much lighter than a flourless chocolate cake! It’s gluten-free, low in sugar, and… it’s a cookie cake. So, you need this.

Hi friends! I have a new podcast episode live and today, I’m chatting with Dr. Casey Kelley.

163: Autoimmune, Lyme, and gut health with Dr. Casey Kelley, MD

Here are some of the things we talk about:

How to prevent and treat tick-borne disease

The autoimmune diseases impacting more than 24 million Americans, and recommendations for stabilizing and potentially reversing the course of these diseases

Steps for detoxing in an inherently toxic world

Gut health

and so much more.



Here’s more about Dr. Casey and her background:

Seeking those answers, she began studying Functional Medicine to complement her traditional medical studies. Utilizing this multi-disciplinary approach, Dr. Kelley has been at the forefront of Integrative Medicine, devoting her career to treating patients in a highly personalized manner that focuses as much on overall health and wellness as it does on specific issues and diagnoses.

Board Certified in Family Medicine, Dr. Kelley was among the first physicians to add a board certification in Integrative Medicine as well. She has studied the causes, effects, and treatments of Lyme Disease extensively, and lectures nationally on this and other topics.

Dr. Kelley graduated from The Ohio State University College of Medicine and completed her residency in Family Medicine at St. Joseph Hospital in Chicago. She is a ten-year member of the Institute of Functional Medicine (IFM), a Treasurer of The International Lyme and Associated Disease Society (ILADS), and is a Founding Member of the Academy of Integrative Health and Medicine (AIHM).

Sharing some of the best gadgets I tried at the Biohacking Conference, plus some things you can do at home. 

Hi friends! I hope that you’re having a wonderful week! Liv and I are getting our nails done (P is at camp) and we’ll all be swimming and hanging out today.

For today’s post, I wanted to share some of my favorite new products I tried at the Biohacking conference, plus some things you can do at home.

Gadgets I tried at the Biohacking Conference

The Tech Wonderland at the Biohacking Conference was literally a WONDERLAND. It was packed with so many amazing things, like saunas, red light, PEMF, IV infusions, coffee, food, supplements, cold plunges – basically anything you could ever want for your at-home health routine.

I was there with my friend Giselle, and we had a blast trying and doing all the things.

Here are some of my favorite things we tried:

BallancerPRO

The BallancerPRO is a state-of-the-art lymphatic drainage massage system designed to improve circulation, reduce swelling, and enhance overall body contouring. Utilizing advanced compression technology, it works by gently applying pressure to different parts of the body, promoting lymphatic flow and the removal of toxins. Regular use of BallancerPRO can lead to improved skin tone, reduced cellulite, and a boost in overall energy levels.

Cera

Cera is a high-tech wellness device focused on enhancing brain function and mental clarity. CERA is the first FDA-listed device to support the Gut-Brain Axis with photobiomodulation. It can stimulate brain activity, improve focus, and can support cognitive health. Users often experience benefits such as reduced stress, better sleep quality, and enhanced mental performance after consistent use of the Cera devices, which you can use for gut and brain wellness.

Pure Wave

Pure Wave is a VEMI (Vibroaccoustic eletromagnetic infrared) biosynchronizer bed designed to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and enhance overall well-being. By emitting electromagnetic waves that interact with the body’s cells, the Pure Wave bed helps to improve cellular health, boost mood, and support recovery. Regular sessions on the Pure Wave bed can lead to deeper meditation, better sleep, and a heightened sense of calm and balance.

Hi friends! How are you? I hope you’re enjoying the day and that you had a lovely weekend.

For today’s post, I wanted to share something new that I’ve tried recently: OneSkin. I’m always interested in trying new skincare brands, and when I found out about this during the Biohacking Conference, I was intrigued.

OneSkin is a brand that has been gaining attention for its science-backed approach to skincare, particularly in anti-aging. Today I wanted to chat about what OneSkin is all about, highlight some of their top products, discuss the costs, and weigh the pros and cons.

OneSkin review and if it’s worth the price

What Is OneSkin?

OneSkin is a biotechnology company focused on developing skincare solutions that target the root causes of skin aging at the molecular level. The brand’s mission is to extend skin health and longevity by reducing the biological age of the skin. Founded by a team of scientists with expertise in stem cell research, OneSkin combines cutting-edge research with high-quality ingredients to create products that promote healthier, more youthful skin.

I was able to hear founder Carolina Oilveira speak at the Biohacking Conference, and she was amazing! She talked about habits for healthy skin and how the OneSkin technology worked. They use what they’ve dubbed OS-01, which is a novel peptide that targets senescent cells. Dr. Cabral refers to these types of cells as “zombie cells,” as they cause oxidation, which in turn leads to inflammation and accelerated again.

Top Products

OneSkin offers a range of products designed to address various aspects of skin aging. I was definitely interested in trying the body products, like the SPF moisturizer and the body lotion.

Here are some of their standout offerings:

1. OS-01 Face

The flagship product, OS-01 Face, is a topical supplement designed to improve skin health and appearance. It contains the OS-01 proprietary peptide that targets senescent cell
