Sharing the details on the NEW Organifi creatine gummies. Use the code FITNESSISTA at checkout for a discount. This blog post has been sitting here ready to go for over a month but the gummies sold out as soon as they were released. They’re finally back in stock so I can share the details with you!

Hi friends! How are you? I hope you’re having a lovely morning. We’re here working on homeschool fun and I have a couple of client appointments this afternoon. If you’re interested in 1:1 coaching, please let me know ASAP – I have two open spots before we head out of the country for a while.

Ok friend, so you know I’m all about sharing the latest and greatest in wellness, and I’m really excited about this one. Organifi launched something new and they are AMAZING: Creatine Gummies!

If you’ve been curious about creatine but don’t love the idea of mixing powders or dealing with scoops, this is such a simple way to try it. They’re delicious, easy to take, and packed with benefits to support your workouts, recovery, and even your brain.

Organifi Creatine Gummies Review

So, what’s the deal with creatine?

Creatine is one of the most studied and trusted supplements in the fitness world, and for good reason. It can help your body produce more ATP (your main source of cellular energy), which means more strength, endurance, and faster recovery. It’s also been shown to support brain health, cognitive function, and even mood, especially during times of stress. If you think it’s just for gym bros, it’s definitely not!

Here are some of the benefits of creatine:

Improved strength and performance: Creatine can help muscles work harder and recover faster, which can lead to noticeable improvements in strength and stamina.

Faster recovery: By reducing muscle breakdown and inflammation, creatine can help shorten recovery time between workouts.

Increased muscular endurance: It can delay fatigue so you can push through longer or more intense training sessions.

Supports cognitive health: New research is showing creatine’s benefits for the brain like potential for improved memory, mental clarity, and stress resilience.

Helps reduce muscle soreness and supports joint health: Especially when paired with anti-inflammatory ingredients like tart cherry.

What’s in these gummies?

Creatine Monohydrate: The most effective and well-researched form of creatine.
VitaCherry Sport: A tart cherry extract that can help reduce inflammation, ease soreness, and support joint recovery. I’m a huge fan of this ingredient.

And of course, they’re made with Organifi’s clean standards:

Glyphosate residue-free

Gluten-fre

High-Protein Viral Cottage Cheese Beef & Sweet Potato Bowl

Get ready to fuel up with this High-Protein Cottage Cheese Beef & Sweet Potato Bowl! Packed with lean ground beef, creamy cottage cheese, and roasted sweet potatoes, this protein bowl delivers a perfect balance of savory and sweet in every bite.

With 40 grams of protein per serving, it’s the ultimate comfort food meets clean eating — perfect for meal prep, post-workout refuels, or a quick weeknight dinner that actually keeps you full. Topped with avocado and pickled red onions is my favorite way to eat it!

I kept hearing about these viral sweet potato bowls all over TikTok and other social media channels, and you know I had to jump on the train and create one my family would love. The components all seemed so odd to eat together, but let me tell you, it works! The flavors and textures all together in one bowl are like a party in your mouth.

Here’s the nutritional breakdown on the Oh Sweet Basil version of the viral Cottage Cheese Sweet Potato Beef Bowl: 36g carbohydrates, 40g protein, 32g fat, and 11g fiber.

Ingredients for a Sweet Potato Bowl

Keep in mind that this protein bowl is highly customizable, but this version is my absolute favorite. I’ll include a section below with ideas for creating your own customized bowl. Here are all the ingredients you’ll need for this high protein meal:

• Sweet Potatoes: Peeled and cut into similar sized cubes.
• Olive Oil: Helps roast and caramelize the sweet potatoes to give them crispy texture.
• Smoked Paprika: Adds bold smoky flavor.
• Kosher Salt: Adds flavor.
• Lean Ground Beef: I recommend going with 93/7 or 90/10 if you can find it.
• Kinder’s Carne Asada Seasoning: We are huge fans of Kinder’s seasonings, but if you don’t have it on hand, taco seasoning will work just great. We have found Kinder’s seasonings at Walmart, Kroger stores, Costco and on Amazon.
• Water: Used to keep the meat juicy and flavorful.
• Cottage Cheese: I use low fat cottage cheese and it tastes great!
  • PRO TIP: If the texture of cottage cheese is a hang up for you, give it a pulse in the blender before adding it to the bowl! Then you get all the protein and creaminess without the curds.
• Avocados: Adds creaminess and healthy fat.
• Cilantro: Adds fresh herbaceous flavor.
• Black Pepper: Adds flavor and a little heat.

Sharing my parasite cleansing journey and some of the things that helped. If you’re interested in downloading my parasites freebie, check it out here! If this topic grosses you out, please feel free to skip this post and I’ll see ya tomorrow!

Hi friends! How are you? I hope you’re having an amazing week so far. Earlier this week, Kristi and I had a fun photo shoot, I recorded a couple of podcast interviews, and I’m here trying to batch as much as I can before we leave for our trip. I can’t wait!!

So, I hope you’ve had breakfast already because I’m chatting about parasites today. If this topic makes you squeamish, I get it. It freaked me out for a long time! Please keep in mind that this isn’t medical advice – I’m just sharing my experience.

When I first started learning about parasites, I had no idea they could be affecting my energy, digestion, immune system, and even my mood. It wasn’t until I personally went through a parasite cleanse – and saw (yes, SAW) multiple foot-long parasites leave my body – that I truly understood how lifechanging this process could be. I was equally disgusted and EXCITED. Better out of my body than in, ya know??

Since then, I’ve guided clients all over the world through their own parasite cleanse journeys, and the results have been absolutely incredible. Today, I wanted to chat about why parasite cleansing is so important, the biggest mistakes people make when they start, and a FREE downloadable cheat sheet you can grab to support your own journey.

why parasites could be a missing piece in your health journey

First things first:

How do you know if you might have parasites?

You don’t have to have traveled to a foreign country or had food poisoning to have parasites. They’re far more common than most people realize. Many symptoms we write off as “normal” could actually be signs your body is dealing with an infection, like:

Chronic bloating or gas

Brain fog

Fatigue

Skin issues

Allergies

Cravings (especially for sugar)

Sleep struggles

Autoimmune flares

Unexplained weight changes

Parasites don’t just live in your gut, either. They can live throughout your body, in your organs, your lymphatic system, even your brain. Crazy, right?!

What to do before a parasite cleanse

One of the most important lessons I’ve learned (the hard way) is that preparing your body properly is KEY.

Here’s what you need to know before you dive in:

You MUST be pooping at least once a day.
Otherwise, when parasites die off and release toxins, your body has no way to eliminate them, which can lead to even worse symptoms.

You need to plan for at least 2 month protocol.
Parasites lay eggs as they die, and a short cleanse can actu

Sharing my wellness must-haves for travel! 

Hi friends! Happy Monday! I hope that you had a great weekend and that my friends who were celebrating Easter enjoyed a beautiful holiday. We had brunch here at the house, went to see King of Kings with friends, and had dinner to celebrate Trevor’s bday with the fam. It was perfect.

Our Spring Forward challenge starts TODAY so if you’re looking for a lil wellness reset, sign up here.

For today’s post, I wanted to talk a bit about travel wellness must-haves. Some people pack super light and I’m like, “How can I cushion my mini Somavedic so it doesn’t break?”

Maybe one day I’ll be a carry-on only girl, but for now, I just have too many things I like to have with me. I tried to focus on solely the essentials for this post and included all of the wellness goodies I bring when I travel. Affiliate links are included below because many of these are products I’ve used and loved for many years. Thank you so much for supporting the blog by shopping through my links!

If you have any faves to add to the list, please leave them in the comments below!

Travel Wellness Must-haves

Compression socks

These are such a gamechanger for long flights and drives. I can’t live without them because they really help with circulation and reducing swelling. I’ll also get up and walk at least every couple of hours unless I’m sleeping. I’ll wear a jumpsuit or comfy pants when I travel (no leggings) so no one can tell I’m in full grandma compression mode. These are the best. 

Rest Eye masks

These are one of my can’t-live-without eye care products, but they are amazing for overall eye wellness, especially if you deal with dry eyes on flights. I use one every single morning. They help to open the oil glands and increase the oil production in your eyes, which lubricates them, and it’s super relaxing. Try them here. 

Hand sanitizer

While I don’t think that we should abuse hand sanitizer, I think it’s important to have on hand when you have kids and they’re touching everything, and for traveling. There aren’t always convenient spots available to wash hands, and this is my Read more

Sharing my full thoughts on the Lumebox and if I think it’s worth it! If you’ve been wanting to add one to your collection, check it out here and use the code FITNESSISTA for $260 off.

Hi friends! How are you? I hope you’re having an amazing week. It’s a busy one around here – we have rehearals for the symphony all week – and I was able to sneak away for a juice date with a friend in between strategy calls.

For today’s post, I wanted to chat a bit about Lumebox now that I’ve been using it for a few weeks. It’s been one of my favorite things to stack into my morning wellness routine, and I love it even more than I thought I would.

Here’s what my current routine looks like:

– Eye care routine

– Get the kids packed up and off to school

– Breakfast – almost always a protein pudding with Daily Nutritional Support, Truvani, Nuttzo and berries + decaf Danger Coffee

– Recharge time: sit on the PEMF mat (code FITNESSISTA15) with my Lumebox, meditate for about 10 minutes, and journal for about 5 minutes

It’s only a 15-minute routine but really makes a difference in my mood and energy for the rest of the day! Here are some more details about Lumebox.
