“Just wait until they’re all in high school.”
People used to say that when our three girls were little, and I assure you it wasn’t a compliment. It was more of a warning, as if someday I’d understand just how miserable a house full of teenage girls could be.

Well… they’re 15, almost 17 and 18 now (freshman, junior & senior). And whoever said that, you were so unbelievably wrong. I’ve had the time of my life with these girls.💕

Sure… someone is always looking for the curling wand, someone else has apparently taken the straightener, and my Kenra hair oil is missing even though nobody has seen it, touched it or used it. Does anyone have setting spray left? And how can there be THIS much hair stuck in the vacuum?

But somewhere in and amongst all of that, the little girls in Elsa and Anna dress up clothes slowly disappeared, and three high school girls showed up. Homecoming dresses x 3, sweaty jersey’s x 3 …more than 3 pairs of basketball shoes… you get the picture. But every stage had me thinking “this is the best, I want to freeze time RIGHT now!”

Somehow, we managed to pull off a surprise and get our soon to be 17 year old to Thomas Rhett, her ALL TIME favorite.
The surprise? So dang fun!
Thomas Rhett? Hands down, 10/10.

But standing there with this crew, I kept thinking about how we’d given her this night for her birthday… and somehow I was the one getting the gift. 😢 You see, we’ve spent a lot of time together over the years. A lot! And next year, when that oldest girl heads off to college, that starts to change. One by one, these girls will head into their next chapter, and having all of us together won’t be the everyday thing it’s always been.

I’m excited for them. I’m excited for everything ahead. That’s what you’re supposed to say when you’re the mom, so I’m gonna keep saying it until I believe it. 😉

I just really, really love having them here. And honestly, if you so much as ask me about it, I’ve already got a lump in my throat.

It sure hit home when Thomas Rhett sang” Life changes” And apparently, sometimes it changes while you’re hollering down the hallway for everyone to get their shoes on because we needed to leave five minutes ago.

You’re so busy living it that you don’t always notice how much has changed until you look around. That’s what I keep coming back to lately. I am glad I had the energy to be IN these years with them. In the pictures. On the trips. Singing at the concert. Never missing a beat for the couch and sweats or saying “I’m too tired” when something fun comes up.

And I think a lot of us moms need that reminder. We get so good at making sure everyone else has what they need that taking care of ourselves becomes something we’ll get around to when life settles down. But your kids keep getting older while you are waiting for things to settle down.

Cheers to the mamas sharing a bathroom counter with the girls who used to need help washing their hair…and now are stealing your good hair stuff (and much more expensive). I hope you’re having the time of your life, too. ❤️

And if taking care of yourself keeps getting pushed to “after things slow down,” message me CHANGES. Let’s talk about making room for you in the life you love.

A lot of women want to lose weight, but also want to eat supper with their family without making themselves a separate meal or feeling guilty about what’s on their plate.

I help busy women build food and lifestyle habits that support weight loss and fit their actual lives. Without counting a calorie or hours in the gym.

Inside the Radiant Mom Routine, we work together for six months so you have guidance and support as you put those changes into practice.

What I Want My Kids to Know About Health

1. The “quick fix” always comes with a bill later. Don’t buy it.
2. Sugar pretends to be your friend. It’s a wolf dressed in sheep clothes.
3. Sleep isn’t optional. Exhausted people make poor decisions.
4. If you are on a diet constantly, it’s not your lifestyle. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
5. Move every day. Not to chase skinny, but because strength is your birthright.
6. Repair costs more than discipline…
7. One day, your body will become your priority whether by choice or by consequence.
8. You can’t out-train what’s happening in the kitchen.
9. Water first. Coffee second. Always.
10. Your body whispers before it yells. Listen intently.
11. Long-term change hides inside boring consistency.
12. “Diet culture” thrives on drama. Eat real food.
13. Ignore front labels. Flip the package and read the truth.
14. If God didn’t create it, question it. Every bite, every pill, every promise.
15. The sun is medicine. Don’t fear what was made to heal you.

Love,
Mom

I know you’ve tried programs before.
Probably more than one. Maybe more than you care to admit. So what’s different about the Radiant Mom Routine?

I’m not just handing you a meal plan. You can pull one off Pinterest in 30 seconds. If knowing what to eat was enough, you wouldn’t still be looking for answers.

We work on what keeps throwing you off. The pantry at 9 p.m. The “well, I already blew it” Saturday. Starting over every Monday.

I coach you myself. You get six months of support…including through the holidays, when it’s easy to put yourself last and decide you’ll buckle down in January.

You don’t need another January restart.
Comment READY and I’ll send you the details.

Even when you’re stressed, tired, and overwhelmed, you can still focus on one thing…yourself.

Blaming your cholesterol for heart disease is like blaming firefighters

They show up at the scene because they're fixing damage ...not causing it. And yet women over 40 are still being told to put down the red meat. Eat all lean meats, salads and smoothies.

Here's what that advice is missing:
Your body uses cholesterol as the raw material to make estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone.
When those hormones start declining after 40, your body raises cholesterol on purpose, trying to keep hormone production alive as long as possible.
That's not your body failing. That's your body fighting.

And here's the weight loss connection nobody talks about looks like this…
Low hormones → slower metabolism

Slower metabolism → weight that won't move no matter what you do

Restrict fat and protein → hormones drop even further

Hormones drop → more weight, more symptoms, more frustration (sound familiar?)

The real drivers of weight gain after 40 aren't fat or cholesterol (shocking, right?)

They're insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, and metabolic dysfunction. Red meat is not your enemy. Blood sugar spikes, chronic stress, and ultra-processed food are. Protein and healthy fat support the hormones that make weight loss possible. Your body isn't broken, but we’ve got to stop treating it like it is.

It just needs the right fuel ...not less of it. Unsure where to start, let's work together to make it simple!

If getting dressed has started to feel like a negotiation… read this. Let me guess… you’ve tried Optavia, counting points, counting calories… and you’re pretty tired of counting everything except the number of jeans you actually feel good in.

My mission is simple: I help women get into their favorite jeans again…..without counting every bite & without a 90-minute workouts led by a 28-year-old influencer in matching crop top activewear 🙄.

We work on real meals, simple routines, and a plan that fits the days when work runs late, the kids need a ride, you have an away game and motivation ran out at 11AM.

Because wanting your jeans to zip without the bedroom pep talk isn’t asking too much.
If that sounds like the season you’re ready for, message me “JEANS.” ❤️

FYI: my youngest is spicy.. bet you would have never guessed

She sent me a six-minute voice message on Sunday, and I’ve listened to it more times than I’d like to admit.

When Julie first joined my program, she’ll tell you herself that her first thought was, “Oh man, what did I just spend my money on?”

She was working 12-hour shifts. Cutting hidden sugars bananas to her, and she didn’t think real people actually ate that way and made it work. She didn’t know how to meal prep for it, where the sugar was hiding or what she was supposed to eat instead.

She’s 56 now, and she’s down 90 pounds.

People keep asking her what’s so different, and some tell her it looks easy for her. She laughed and said that whenever she hears “easy,” her brain yells “oh heck no,” because parts of it are hard. Then she said the line that got me:

“But it also wasn’t a fight. I didn’t have to fight with myself.”

That’s the part nobody tells you. Most women I talk to swear they don’t eat much sugar. They skip dessert, they don’t drink pop, and they feel pretty good about that.

Then we look at what they’re really eating. None of it tastes like sugar, and all of it turns into sugar once it hits your bloodstream. Your body doesn’t care that the label said “whole grain.” It keeps your insulin up all day, so women stay hungry, stay tired and keep storing fat.

And the 90 pounds isn’t even what she talked about most. She said, “I just have so much more fun now. I want to step out of hiding.”

This is a woman who, a few years ago, couldn’t stand to watch a short video of herself walking through the garage.

So if you’ve been telling yourself you just need more discipline, or that you’re “not the type” who can eat like this, I’d love for you to hear her say it: you don’t need more fight. You need someone to show you how.

Julie, thank you for letting me share this. I’m so proud of you I could cry, and I might have.

If you want to know where to start, comment “HOW” or send me a message, and I’ll point you in the right direction. ❤️

75 days left this year. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Two things can make a HUGE difference in whether January 1 feels like another repeat of the last decade.

1) Your plan.You can be consistent. You can be ultra disciplined. But if all that effort is aimed at the wrong things, working harder won’t magically make it work. (Hint: not calories or 10k steps)

If you keep getting nowhere, it’s time to question the plan (Like buying all the “added protein” stuff) … instead of questioning you.

2) Who holds you accountable. Because knowing what to do on a day with no activities is one thing. Following through when it’s dark at 5, everyone needs supper, there’s 2 away games this week and the holiday calendar is filling up? That’s where someone in your corner matters. Let’s be honest… your husband telling you what to eat probably isn’t going to end well. 😂 And your bestie? She loves you, but she’s probably going to say, “you deserve it.”

Let me say this gently…

If you’re still wildly frustrated with how you feel, maybe it’s time for something beyond your usual January “buckle down” plan.

There’s still time to start building a routine that ACTUALLY works in your crazy life. Message me GO and I’ll give you options. Let’s talk about what that could look like for you, so January 1 isn’t another “fresh start.”

Krista, you can’t just show up looking like this and expect us to act normal. 🔥🖤

That’s our girl. An absolute knockout.
