Hi friends! Happy Friday and hope my US friends had a beautiful Thanksgiving!

It’s been a pretty great week over here. I took the kids and some friends to the trampoline park after their half day at school so they could jump their hearts out, tackled the holiday cooking (made this pie, this green bean casserole with homemade crunchy onions, and picked up a pumpkin loaf, apple pie, and gf gravy from Dedicated),

took the kids to Target (to “browse,” they said) and the Pilot returned from a long trip. The end of October through November has been crazy: he was gone, I left for RHS, we high-fived and he left, when he returned I went to LA, we high-fived again and he left, and now he’s back! WHEW. It was such a treat that he could be here for Thanksgiving!

We had the usual lunch/dinner at my Uncle’s house with all of my dad’s side of the fam.

Sharing some of my favorite gift ideas for fitness and wellness enthusaists, biohackers, and *scrunchy* friends (or even yourself!) this holiday season.

Hi friends! How are you? I hope that you’re having an amazing week so far. It’s a quick week that ends with shopping and pie – we’ve got this!!

It’s been a busy one over here. Monday night was Liv’s confirmation, so we celebrated with dinner and crazy milkshakes afterwards. The Pilot was on a trip, but I’m excited that he’ll be here for Thanksgiving. What do you have planned? We’re going to my uncle’s as usual, and then heading to Trevor and Danielle’s for a bit.

For today’s post, I wanted to share a roundup of my favorite wellness, fitness, and biohacking gifts! This is a perfect gift for your *scrunchy* friends… or even yourself. Let’s be real; the best sales of the year happen this weekend, so it’s the perfect time to stock up on wellness essentials, especially if you have health-related goals as we head into the new year.

It’s also worth mentioning here that a lot of the things on this list are nice/fun to have, but not essential. The most important health tools are free, like sunshine, stress management, connection, movement, and solid nutrition.

If you have an favorite wellness purchases from the year, please feel free to link in the comments below!

Holiday Gift Guide for Wellness, Fitness, and Biohacking

Home and kitchen:

Air Doctor. Clean air makes such a huge difference, especially during this time of the year with allergies and colds floating around.

Nontoxic pots and pans. We love Caraway and OurPlace. Each year on Black Friday, I usually treat myself to a new OurPlace pot or pan. Their air fryer is so cute, too!

Water filter. Read more

Sharing a recap of my experience at the Reimagining Health Summit. If you’re reading this and want to learn more about becoming an Integrative Health Practitioner, check it out here and use FITNESSISTA for up to $250 off. It’s by far the best certification I’ve ever done.

Hi friends!
I hope that you’re doing well and enjoying the week so far. We have a short school week with Thanksgiving, so we’re planning some fun things to do this week. The weather has been a dream so I’m going to see if I can convince the crew to head out on a hike.

For today’s post, I wanted to share a recap of my trip to Ft. Lauderdale for the Reimagining Health Summit. It was my second time attending this event – check out last year’s recap here! – and my first time attending as a speaker. I was invited to speak on a panel with three incredible coaches – they’ve all inspired me on my journey as an IHP – and even though I was suuuuper nervous, it went really well.

Some highlights from the trip:

– Ft. Lauderdale! It was my first time in Ft. Lauderdale, which is suprising since it’s a Disney cruise port and we loooove Disney cruises – and I thought it was super cute. It reminded me of Jacksonville, which was one of our favorite beach spots when we lived in Valdosta. I arrived a night early and had time to meet up with a Revenue Rx client for dinner at Pura Vida,

Hi friends! Happy Friday and happy Wicked day!! Are you going? Did you already go?? The girls and I are going the second they get out of school and I can’t.even.wait. (I’m a little bit more excited than they are, but they’re good sports and they know they get movie lunch and dessert out of the deal.)

In other news, P went back to school today. I’ll share more in an upcoming post (and will probably blab all about it over on Substack in the meantime), but it’s the end of a homeschool era. It was never meant to be a permanent thing unless it needed to be, and she was ready to go back to her friends and teachers. I’m happy for her, cautiously optimistic, and kind of a secret mess emotionally. I know I’ll be crying on and off most of the morning with complex emotions, and will probably cry more at Wicked so there ya go.

For now, it’s time for the weekly Friday Faves party. This is where I share some of my favorite finds from the week and around the web. I always love to hear about your faves, too, so please shout out something you’re loving in the comments section below.

Hi friends! Happy Friday and hi from Manhattan Beach! I’m here for a mastermind event with Jill Coleman aka JillFit (my business coach and mentor for years), some friends and fellow health professionals. It’s been amazing weekend of fun and learning so far. What are you up to this weekend? I hope you have a lovely and relaxing weekend ahead.

Some pics from this week:

It was my 41st birthday. I had a lovely dinner with Giselle and Amber here in LA, and I’m celebrating with the fam this weekend. While this year definitely had its ups and downs, I’m feeling hopeful and excited for this next year, and filled with gratitude for all of life’s beautiful blessings, including all of you. I never take my *job* for granted and look forward to connecting with all of you every single day.
