Fuel to Thrive

Fuel to Thrive We are a group of dietitians and personal trainers wanting to help you optimize your health! We educate, empower, and walk alongisde our clients.

We love working with athletes, those with chronic GI conditions, and peri/menopausal women! Fuel can be looked at literally, as food, and metaphorically, as passions. I think we need to recognize what fuels us metaphorically before looking at what fuels us literally. What gets you excited? What gets you out of bed in the morning? Is it a competition you are training for, or is it the moments you g

et to spend playing with your grandkids? No matter what fuels you metaphorically, I can help you find what fuels you literally. I do this by living up to my mission: Redefine health. Empower individuals. Create lasting changes.

3 things I’d NEVER say to an endurance athlete mom 👇⁠
⁠
❌ “You don’t need carbs if you want to lean out.”⁠
Your body needs carbohydrates to train hard, recover well, support hormones, and keep your energy stable—especially when you’re balancing training and motherhood.⁠
⁠
❌ “Coffee counts as breakfast.”⁠
Coffee can be part of your morning… but it’s not fuel. If you’re heading into a workout, school drop-offs, work, and mom life on caffeine alone, your body is going to feel it.⁠
⁠
❌ “You can make up for skipped meals later.”⁠
Under-fueling all day and trying to “catch up” at night often leads to low energy, cravings, poor recovery, and feeling like your nutrition is all over the place.⁠
⁠
We see this with endurance moms all the time—women who are incredibly disciplined but simply haven’t been taught how to fuel for both performance and real life.⁠
⁠
You don’t need more willpower.⁠
You need a fueling strategy. 💛

I used to think feeling exhausted all the time was just part of being an endurance athlete.⁠
⁠
Back before kids—when I was younger and training a lot—I worked hard… but if I’m honest, I didn’t fuel well.⁠
⁠
I thought eating “healthy” was enough.⁠
I thought being hungry meant I was disciplined.⁠
I thought pushing through fatigue was just part of the process.⁠
⁠
But what I didn’t realize was that I was asking my body to do a lot… without giving it what it actually needed.⁠
⁠
Now, as a mom, I’m so grateful I learned how to fuel differently.⁠
⁠
Because now I can still train hard (maybe even harder)… and show up for my family.⁠
⁠
I can chase big goals, recover better, have more energy, and be present for the people who matter most.⁠
⁠
And honestly? We see this with endurance moms all the time.⁠
⁠
So many women think they’re just tired because life is busy… when in reality, they’ve never been taught how to truly fuel their bodies as athletes and moms.⁠
⁠
If you’re constantly exhausted, it might not be your training plan. It might be your fueling. 💛

You’re balancing kids, work, training, and everything in between—so it’s no surprise fueling often falls to the bottom of the list.⁠
⁠
But for endurance athlete moms, these 3 habits can quietly impact:⁠
⁠
Energy⁠
Recovery⁠
Hormones⁠/Health⁠
Performance⁠
⁠
The biggest mistakes I see:⁠
⁠
✔ Skipping meals because life is chaotic⁠
✔ Heading into workouts under-fueled⁠
✔ Waiting too long to eat and playing catch-up later⁠
⁠
The truth? You don’t need a “perfect” diet—you just need a fueling strategy that fits your real life.⁠
⁠

Summer is ALMOST here ☀️ and while it’s technically still spring, these sunny days are the perfect excuse to start leaning into summer vibes a little early.⁠
⁠
One of my favorite ways to do that? A simple, refreshing batch of homemade popsicles.⁠
⁠
There’s something about a cold, fruity treat that instantly makes the season feel lighter, slower, and more fun! These are easy to make, customizable for the whole family, and a great way to use up fruit you already have on hand.⁠
⁠
Plus, you can keep them as simple or creative as you want—just blend, pour, freeze, and you’ve got a freezer full of ready-to-go summer energy.⁠
⁠
These little popsicles are a simple way to make the last stretch of spring feel a bit more like summer has already arrived—and honestly, we’re not mad about it 🍓🍑🍦⁠

Bloomsday is almost here, Spokane! 🌸🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️⁠
⁠
Whether you’re chasing a PR, soaking up the energy, or just out there for the otter pops along the way 😉—we’re cheering you on!⁠
⁠
A few different race-day tips to keep in mind:�⁠
• Give yourself extra time race morning—parking, shuttles, and lines can take longer than expected⁠
• EAT BREAKFAST! (think carbs + a little protein like Bagel + jam | Oatmeal with banana + maple syrup | Toast + peanut butter + banana)�⁠
• Dress for the weather (and remember—you’ll warm up fast once you start)�⁠
• Use the first mile to settle your nerves and find your rhythm�• Break the course into small sections (hello, Doomsday Hill 👀) and celebrate each mile!—it makes it feel more manageable�⁠
• Take advantage of aid stations—small sips early can go a long way�⁠
⁠
And don’t forget—look around. Bloomsday is one of the most fun, community-filled races out there 💛⁠
⁠
We’ll see you out there Bloomies!

☀️ warm weather = smoothie season⁠
⁠
I’ve been leaning on smoothies a lot lately—especially on busy mornings or after runs when I don’t want a full meal but still need something that actually fuels me.⁠
⁠
I see this all the time with clients too (and I’ve definitely done it myself)…⁠
either not eating enough, skipping protein, or throwing together a smoothie that ends up being mostly carbs and doesn’t keep you full.⁠
⁠
The biggest shift is honestly just building it a little more intentionally:⁠
fruit + protein + fat + liquid⁠
⁠
That combo makes a huge difference in energy, recovery, and actually staying satisfied.⁠
⁠
A few easy combos I’ve been liking lately:⁠
– strawberry + banana + Greek yogurt + almond milk⁠
– mango + pineapple + protein powder + coconut water⁠
– blueberry + spinach + almond butter + oat milk⁠
⁠
Also—prepping smoothie bags ahead of time = game changer when you’re short on time⁠
⁠
I put a few more ideas + recipes on the blog if you want to mix it up
