A meaningful life begins with knowing your WHY.

In the middle of our busy lives, it’s easy to lose sight of what truly matters. Discovering your deeper meaning starts with understanding your values, nurturing meaningful relationships, and making time for the things that bring you joy.

Reflect on what matters most.

Align your choices with your values.

Take small steps toward a more purposeful life.

Remember, you don’t have to have everything figured out. Start with one intentional choice each day and let your purpose guide you.

Your habit challenge: Write down your top three values and choose one way to live by them this week.

What gives your life meaning and purpose?

Sourdough focaccia is one of our kids’ favorites, but has a recipe that takes it to a new level. We usually use kamut or einkorn wheat, because they’re easier to digest. Still working on developing Lacey’s signature style with the mega air bubbles, but it’s still a lot better than any focaccia we’ve made in the past!

Once you master the basics, it’s really fun to try adding a variety of herbs and veggies. The combinations are endless, but three of our favorites are pesto, tomatoes with italian herbs and garlic olive oil, or squash and fresh lemon slices (lemon added after cooking, peel on.)

One thing to note: Use a high-quality olive oil—one that you know is actually olive oil! The best way to find this is to look locally for a smaller reseller who can tell you where they source their oil or to purchase in bulk online from a trusted seller like . We are lucky enough to have close by and they not only have high-quality olive oil, but also have infused oils and flavored vinegars that we love to use on literally everything.

Family is more than sharing a home or a last name. It's having people who celebrate your wins, support you through difficult seasons, and remind you that you don't have to face life alone.

Being part of a family means having a place where love, connection, and shared experiences shape who you become.

The strongest family bonds aren't built on perfect moments. They're built through patience, understanding, forgiveness, and showing up for one another.

What is one thing your family has taught you about love?

Purpose grows when we look beyond ourselves.

Serving others helps us develop gratitude, build meaningful connections, and find greater purpose in everyday life. You don't need grand gestures to make a difference.

A simple act of kindness, a helping hand, or a thoughtful message can brighten someone's day.

Start small, notice the needs of others, and make service part of your daily life. Sometimes, the smallest acts leave the biggest impact.

Your challenge: Find one way to help someone today.

How can you make a difference in someone's life?

So what’s the solution?

First, stabilize blood sugar—this means reducing ultra-processed carbs, prioritizing protein, and avoiding late-night eating. Reduce inflammation by supporting your gut (probiotics, fiber, and fermented foods) and cutting out inflammatory oils.

Get serious about sleep, no more scrolling before bed.

Manage stress with movement, mindfulness, and time outdoors (it’s not a luxury; it’s essential). And if you’re constantly tired, test don’t guess—nutrient deficiencies, thyroid issues, or chronic infections could be at play.

The brain can heal, but only if you address the root cause.

Better sleep starts with understanding what your body needs. 💤

Nutrient deficiencies, hormone imbalances, genetics, and even your nighttime routine may play a role in your sleep quality.

Instead of guessing, take time to identify what may be affecting your rest and explore personalized ways to support healthier sleep. Small, consistent changes can make a difference over time.

What’s one habit you’re working on to improve your sleep?

The answer is symptomatic hypophosphatemia—dangerously low phosphate caused by the iron infusion

The IV iron she received was ferric carboxymaltose, also known as Injectafer.

Hypophosphatemia can occur after a single infusion or repeated doses, and because the symptoms can resemble iron deficiency, it may be completely missed.

If it persists, it can cause osteomalacia—softening of the bones—and even fractures.

The FDA has now added a boxed warning and recommends phosphate monitoring in higher-risk patients and before repeat treatment within three months.

A healthy society starts much closer to home than we realize.

The well-being of a family can shape the well-being of the community around it. When families prioritize health, they build habits and values that can carry forward for generations.

Healthy families make time for nutritious food, regular movement, quality rest, meaningful connection, and open conversations about well-being.

Health isn't only an individual responsibility. The choices we make at home can influence the people around us—and the generations that come after us.

What healthy habit did your family teach you growing up?
