I feel like I could write for dayssss on this topic because I am literally living it every day of my life right now. Life is full. It can sometimes be a lot to juggle as a single mom. But when they are with their Dad and the house is quiet, and I plummet into 40,000 hours of work in 2 days… I miss the chaos and know in real time that these days are fleeting.

Follow the link in my bio (or today’s story) to get all my fave recipes to make the school year E.A.S.Y.

A little run down of what’s in this article:

For the morning: breakfasts that require almost no thought.

For the lunchbox: things kids actually eat.

For after school: snacks that bridge the gap to dinner.

For dinner: meals that can be made ahead or stretched into leftovers.

For Sunday: the handful of things worth preparing.

I used to host a weekly supper club. It feels like yesterday and also a lifetime ago.

In an even more distant past, the restaurant I ran in St. Louis hosted a monthly Sunday Supper. It was always “Fried Chicken Sundays,” curated by Chef Josh Galliano. The only fried chicken I’ve ever truly loved — me, and everyone else in the city.

As a child, my mother would invite my grandparents over every Sunday and cook a beautiful meal. We’d sit around the table for hours, playing Gin Rummy and Hearts, while my grandmother chewed every bite 100 times and was always the last one eating.

Looking back, it seems this theme of supper has been a constant, invisible thread woven throughout the eras of my life.

The women in my life come to me again and again for recipes, nourishing whole foods, and ideas for feeding their families. We have a whole library of recipes within Marma, but the inspiration has come on so intensely to create something more.

Once a month, I’ll write up a Sunday Supper to send out here on Substack. There will be recipes, grocery lists, and recommendations for where to source ingredients. Each menu will be specially curated for the season, featuring quality whole-food ingredients that nourish your body, mind, eyes, and soul.

Ritual + ceremony has become a pillar of my work for women. SO often we talk about how women find their community through women’s circles, retreats, yoga studios, play groups, school… we are naturally drawn to finding connection. But our husbands often struggle to find the same in today’s fast-paced world. I’m telling you — this is it. I can see how it has changed these men into the divine masculine. They fish and hunt and hit targets and cheer each other on and cry on each other’s shoulders. They carry it through their lives and are magnetic to others who hold the same qualities. They are leaders in their families, in their work, and in their communities.

Food has always been how I love people. Over the last twenty years, I’ve studied nutrition, regenerative farming, Ayurveda, pregnancy + postpartum care, herbalism, cooking, yoga, and the traditions that have nourished families for generations. Marma is where all of that knowledge comes together.

After today, I’ll still have some stories I’ll send along for anyone + everyone. But from here forward, my deepest work will go into the Marma membership. You’ll get a monthly Supper Club menu, all the digital guides deep diving into pregnancy, postpartum meal prep, nourishing the menstrual cycle, and so much more.

A 6 Hour drive is the perfect time to practice a new Capoeira song. I’ve decided to go to Brazil in November and I am completely lit up by it! Capoeira has so many facets to it, including martial arts, learning a new language, singing in public, keeping a rhythm, learning new instruments and the beautiful community from age 3 to 80 ✨ it’s a beautiful thing.

It’s amazing how touching the ground and this 30 second activity changed my entire physical and emotional being. I deleted Instagram from my phone yesterday morning. There’s a lot of noise and I could feel myself being touched by it when I can usually put up a boundary. The Leo full moon is certainly affecting me. I feel like I have a major hangover from the intensity of the weekend, and I wasn’t sure I was gonna be able to get through this day, but a dear friend challenged me to go put my feet in the snow and as my feet thaw here I decided to jump on and share because it has such a profound effect. It is amazing to me how we so easily forget these simple activities that we can do that are free, that are quick, and that are immediate.

So if you’re feeling like me today and that your wires are a little electrified take 10, 20, 30 seconds or longer if you can! Get a little sunshine and put your bare feet on the Earth.

I painted this a few years ago at a women’s retreat. A year later during a plant medicine journey this painting came to life. It showed ancient Lemuria under the sea giving birth to the land we have today. I could see a volcano that opened like a woman and through the same intensity, surrender and release, slowly a new world was born. I cried tears of grief and joy fully immersed in the vision, spiritually, physically and emotionally.

They say the Hawaiian islands are remnants of Lemuria. Sacred lands that hold spiritual magic. It has also been channeled that Lemurian lands will return and humans will begin to remember the magic we all hold.

Lemurians were an ancient people that lived during the time of Atlantis. Atlantis fell when they succumbed to a technology that overtook them. Lemurians chose to go beneath the land and sea to live a chosen different path. Some say that their civilization still thrives beneath our realm. I like to believe that. I also like to believe I’ve lived that existence and am here in this lifetime to remember.

Collectively we are all entering an entirely new cycle. 2026 is the rebirth of something entirely new.

While 2025 was a year 9 and 2026 is a year 1, we all have personal years as well.

I’m headed into a year 3 - and it TRACKS. Exploring, fun, rediscovery. Figuring out exactly what I want so that next year, in my year 4, I can set some structures + roots in the ground.

Find your personal numerology year:
Add your birthday month, day and THIS YEAR 2026.
Example:
Nov 9 (11/9)

1+1+9=11
Reduce to a single number= 1+1=2

2+0+2+6=10
1+0=1

2+1=3

I’m in personal years 3.

And now I can help but track all the cycles and match them to my deaths and rebirths. It’s wiiiiiild. Thank you universe for being so on point.

What year are you heading into?

There’s only a few more weeks to shed your snake skin so that it doesn’t follow you into this next year. What more do you need to release?

If I could offer the SINGLE BEST THING you could do to change your health today… it would be to start your morning with warm water + lemon with a pinch of sea salt. Amplify it by waking up at sunrise and drinking it outside. Ok that’s 2 things. But they easily fit together and I hear TIME + TIME AGAIN how life changing this simple flex is.

Why does it work??
We lose water while we sleep. Rehydrating with warm water + lemon gently cleanses the liver to support your body for the day. The lemon + sea salt create natural electrolytes to hydrate more deeply at a cellular level.

Waking at sunrise sets your circadian rhythm. It also sets the stage for your body to naturally want to retire at sun down, creating healthy sleep habits. Watching the sunrise and getting outside grounds your nervous system - something we all need more of. Living by the sun + moon help you to live more in alignment with the seasons and you will be surprised at how much more energy you will feel!
