Let’s talk about those “oh sh*t it’s 5:30” weeknight dinners.

You know the ones.

You look at the clock, everyone’s hangry, and suddenly you realize the dinner plan is… there is no plan. 😳

Some weeks I’m on my A-game. I meal plan, grocery shop, prep on the weekend, and things run smoothly.

But this post is about the other weeks.

The ones where Monday hits and you’re just trying to get dinner on the table.

Here are a few things that usually save me on those nights:

1. Default to “protein + carb + something green.”
I stop trying to be creative and instead just try to check these 3 boxes.

2. Check the freezer + pantry.
Between frozen meat, frozen veggies, quick rice, and canned beans - I can usually find something to check all the boxes.

PRO TIP ➡️ I am obsessed with using sauces to spice things up!! Buffalo, teriyaki, BBQ, salad dressings - these can all turn basic ingredients into a quick meal that seems fancier than it is.

4. Ask ChatGPT.
Sometimes I literally tell it a few things I have:
“I have ground beef, mushrooms, spinach and rice… what can I make in 10 minutes?”

And it comes to the rescue every time!

I hope these help - soon I’ll share what dinner looks like when I do manage to plan ahead. (Spoiler - I keep it quite simple then too.)🧑‍🍳

P.S. have any other hacks that save your bacon on those stressful nights? Please share below!

Coffee… but give it superpowers ☕️✨

I love my morning coffee. It’s a ritual for me. The smell... the taste... even the two “slow” minutes I spend making it. There’s something about it that signals it’s time to get ready to take on the day. I’m not even that affected by caffeine (my 23andMe confirmed this lol) - it’s more about the ritual.

I’m also a maximizer… so I like to get some bang for my buck ;)

Here’s what I add to my morning brew:

1️⃣ Collagen: to support joints, skin, hair, and nails (especially helpful in this postpartum season with some “fun” side effects, ha).

2️⃣ Creatine: for muscle strength and recovery. (It’s not just for bodybuilders like I used to think 😉)

3️⃣ And I’ll usually add a few tablespoons of canned organic coconut milk () for a creamy, dairy-free vibe that keeps me fuller longer.

I used to throw all these supplements into a daily smoothie… but I recently broke up with my blender. More on that another day 😅

For now, this is my simple way to fuel my mornings in a balanced way.

Coffee is a surprisingly great base for most supplements. Using it this way has helped me a ton - maybe it’ll help you too. ☕️

Getting back into the gym after being out of it for a while is HARD.

I used to work out for an hour or more, 4–5 times a week, like it ain’t no thang. But that was YEARS ago.

Now? Between two young kiddos, not enough sleep, and just trying to keep all the family/work/life balls in the air, somewhere along the way that level of commitment at the gym had to take a step back.

But now a few months postpartum, I am trying to get back into it - with a “new normal.” And dang, it’s TOUGH to get started again.

So I made just 3 rules for myself:

1️⃣ Just GET there.�Right now, making the time and actually SHOWING UP to the gym really is the biggest win - even if the workout is only 20 minutes (sometimes that’s all I get).

2️⃣ Clear my mind.�I start with light, “mindless” cardio to reset my brain and check out from all my other responsibilities - and just focus on being in my body. Sometimes I leave after just this… and I still consider it a win.

3️⃣ Expect SLOW gains.�This one is hard for me. I’m impatient 😅 We live in an instant-gratification world, and it’s easy to get discouraged when results aren’t immediate. But real strength takes time. I’ve heard it can take six months of consistency to truly see noticeable changes.

SIX MONTHS. Dang. But instead of hoping for quick results, I’m focusing on small wins from moving my body regularly - like sleeping better, feeling a little stronger, having more energy.

I’m saying no to the “make up for lost time” mentality and instead aiming for just consistency, and trying to find peace in the reality that fitness doesn’t look the way it used to for me.

If you’re in a rebuilding season too - postpartum or otherwise - gently remind yourself that it will take time.

And keep showing up anyway. 💪 You’ve got this! 🩵

Hi. It’s been a minute. 🩵

A lot has changed in the past year.

-I sunset CLEAN.FIT Box.�-I had my second baby.�-We decided to move back to Austin.�-I’m about to turn 40 (still wild to say).

And there have been several other big life changes too… but I’ll save those for another day.

Somewhere in all of that, I realized something:

I just don’t have the time I used to.

I tried to fight it for a while and just try to white knuckle through, [barely] holding all the balls in the air.

But after several sleepless nights and a weird skin inflammation thing that was definitely related to stress and sleep deprivation, it became clear - that just was no longer sustainable.

So instead of trying to keep up with an old version of myself…�
I decided my 2026 focus is to SIMPLIFY.

Here’s a few examples:

-I’ve been opting for more power walks…. And fewer long gym sessions.�-I said bye bye to my blender (and AM smoothies), and hello store-bought green juice.�-Breakfast is now hard-boiled eggs and batch-made protein cookies.�-Two-ingredient crockpot dinners are on repeat.

I am consciously choosing less pressure and perfection and am leaning into the “easiest version” of well, pretty much everything in my life.

Wellness still matters deeply to me.�
But now more than ever, it has to fit real life.

That’s what this next chapter of CLEAN.FIT is about.

Same heart. Same mission. Just simpler. More realistic. More sustainable.

Stay tuned for more. 🩵

If this season feels full for you too, maybe simplify.

Start with one thing. 🫶

🍒 SQUISHIES (aka Healthy Jello!) 🍒

This super simple, FUN, protein-packed treat is loved by our whole family!

Our amazing long-time nanny graced our fam with this recipe and now it’s one of our go-tos.

It’s easy, delicious, and good for growing bodies (and ours too!)!

My 5yo LOVES helping make these, and honestly… I love having a bowl in the fridge for an easy grab-and-go snack. 🙌

INGREDIENTS:
• 1.5 cups juice
• 5 scoops/tbsp grass-fed gelatin
• 2 tbsp honey
• Pinch of salt

DIRECTIONS:
1️⃣ Add juice to a pot (don’t turn the stove on yet 😁).
2️⃣ Sprinkle gelatin over the top and let it “bloom” for a few minutes until dissolved (stir if needed)
3️⃣ Turn heat to medium and warm until the mixture turns to liquid. Stir along the way.
4️⃣ Remove from heat and stir in honey + salt.
5️⃣ Pour into a baking dish and let cool in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
6️⃣ Slice, pull apart, and enjoy! Stores in the fridge up to 2 weeks.

Why I love them:
✔ Protein-packed
✔ Low sugar
✔ Super fun for kids to make
✔ Perfect clean treat for the whole fam
✔ Takes just a few minutes of hands-on time

You can use pretty much any type of juice/liquid as the base! Here are some of our fave flavor ideas:
🍒 Cherry
🍇 Grape
🍊 “Creamsicle” (half OJ + half almond milk)
🍍 “Pina colada” (pineapple juice + coconut milk)
🍋 Lemonade

We love using grass-fed gelatin is our fave.

Send to a friend that would love these too! 😋

🍜 5-MINUTE BONE BROTH 🍜 ⁠
⁠
A few weeks ago, I shared 6 ways to use rotisserie chicken. But my favorite? Turning the leftover bones into bone broth!⁠
⁠
It’s cozy (especially with this cooler weather), nourishing, and packed with nutrients:⁠
⁠
💛 Collagen for joints, skin, and hair⁠
💛 Minerals for bone & immune support⁠
💛 Amino acids for digestion & wellness⁠
⁠
And the best part? You probably already have everything in your pantry.⁠
⁠
How I make it:⁠
1️⃣ Put leftover bones in a pot, cover with filtered water⁠
2️⃣ Add: garlic powder, onion powder, turmeric, salt, ¼ cup apple cider vinegar⁠
3️⃣ Bring to boil, stir⁠
4️⃣ Cover & simmer 4–8 hours⁠
⁠
Especially as the weather cools, this is my go-to whenever anyone in our house starts feeling a tickle in their throat. 🩵⁠

🩵 4 PILLARS OF LASTING WELLNESS 🩵⁠
⁠
Over the years, I tried countless wellness hacks, diets, and workouts. Some promised miracles, others just made life more complicated. But nothing really stuck. 😣⁠
⁠
I eventually realized that focusing on a few simple, consistent pillars are what actually creates lasting wellness.⁠
⁠
These became my roadmap: the CLEAN.FIT 4, which have transformed my energy, mindset, and how I approach each day. ⁠
⁠
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐍.𝐅𝐈𝐓 𝟒:⁠
⁠
🧠 Mindset – Build healthy habits and train your mind to make wellness part of who you are.⁠
💪 Movement – Move your beautiful body daily with quick, doable activities—no personal trainer needed.⁠
🥗 Meals – Enjoy simple, no-stress meals that fuel your energy and focus.⁠
🌿 Minimal Toxins – Create a cleaner, healthier home environment to support your body and promote lasting wellness.⁠
⁠
Here’s an example from each pillar that I do daily:⁠
⁠
𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐬𝐞𝐭: Listen to a few minutes of podcast while doing things around the house (it motivates and inspires me!)⁠
𝐌𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭: Go for a 15-minute walk after school drop-off before starting my day (sometimes it’s the only exercise I get for the day 🤷‍♀️).⁠
𝐌𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐬: Make a green smoothie each morning.⁠
𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐥 𝐓𝐨𝐱𝐢𝐧𝐬: Wipe down my counters with a DIY cleaner (½ vinegar, ½ water, a dropper of tea tree oil).⁠
⁠
Even small daily actions make a big difference!⁠

🌙 STRUGGLING TO SLEEP? TRY THESE 5 WIND DOWN RITUALS 🌙⁠
⁠
Ever find yourself wide awake at 2 a.m. replaying everything from tomorrow’s to-do list to that awkward thing you said years ago? 🙋‍♀️ You’re not alone.⁠
⁠
We all know sleep matters, and not to make you feel worse - but did you know…⁠
⁠
🧠 Sleep is when your brain detoxes.⁠
💪 Sleep is when your body heals.⁠
🔥 Sleep even impacts your metabolism and cravings.⁠
⁠
But here’s the thing — it’s not just about the number of hours you get, it’s about the QUALITY of sleep.⁠
⁠
So, rather than stressing about it, try these 5 gentle rituals to help your body and brain know it’s time to relax:⁠
⁠
1️⃣ 𝐒𝐞𝐭 𝐚 “𝐬𝐨𝐟𝐭 𝐬𝐡𝐮𝐭𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧” 𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐦 — 30–60 min before bed, pause all screens, emails, and big convos.⁠
2️⃣ 𝐃𝐨 𝐚 𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐜𝐤 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟-𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 — dry brushing, gua sha, gentle stretches, or your favorite body oil.⁠
3️⃣ 𝐖𝐚𝐫𝐦 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐭 — cozy socks, slippers, or a quick foot soak can really help.⁠
4️⃣ 𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 — beeswax candles or essential oils like vetiver, bergamot, or clary sage.⁠
5️⃣ 𝐉𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚 “𝟑-𝟐-𝟏” 𝐫𝐞𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 — 3 things you’re grateful for, 2 wins from the day, 1 thing you’re letting go of.⁠
⁠
💥 This week’s challenge: Pick one ritual and try it for 5 nights. Keep it simple. See how your body responds.⁠
⁠
Your body (and your morning self!) will thank you. 😴💙⁠
