I’ve said it before… I’m not a matcha girl. Or at least I wasn’t. 😏

But I do love what it does for me—antioxidants, calm focus, steady energy, and no caffeine crash. So I decided to create an iced matcha latte I’d actually enjoy… and I nailed it. 🙌

🍵 Pique’s Sungoddess Matcha is the only one I’ll use because it’s:
✨ Shade-grown in Kagoshima, Japan
✨ Triple screened for pesticides, mold & heavy metals
✨ Ceremonial-grade (aka smooth, not grassy)

Here’s my recipe 👇

🥄 Whisk 1 packet Pique Sungoddess Matcha in a little water
🥛 In your frother, add:
• 1 cup Elmhurst nut milk
• 1 scoop Equip vanilla protein
• 1 scoop Equip unflavored collagen
• A dash of maple syrup

Froth it up, pour over ice, and you’ve got the creamiest, smoothest iced matcha latte—no bitterness, no crash, no 2 AM wake-ups.

💚 Save this recipe for your next afternoon pick-me-up

Manukora just made a big shift to glass jars, and it makes perfect sense once you understand the science behind their honey.

Their amber glass protects the integrity of the honey by keeping light and heat exposure low. Plastic can break down over time, especially with something as bioactive as high-MGO manuka, so switching to glass means better purity, better stability, and zero risk of leaching. They also wanted higher optical clarity so you can actually see the deep golden color that comes from the antioxidants and flavonoids unique to the Manuka tea tree.

Bottom line: the jar finally matches the quality of what’s inside.

And speaking of what’s inside… Manukora’s honey is on another level.
It’s packed with antimicrobial compounds, prebiotics, and antioxidants that you simply don’t find in other honey. Over 70 percent of the antioxidants in manuka aren’t found in any other food. This stuff nourishes your gut, supports immune health, and gives you clean, slow-rise energy without the blood sugar spike you get from regular honey.

A big piece of that comes down to MGO, which is short for methylglyoxal. That’s the compound that makes manuka so potent. Higher MGO equals stronger antibacterial activity, deeper flavor, darker color, and more therapeutic value. Manukora tests every batch so you actually know what you’re getting instead of guessing from a pretty label.

What really sets them apart is how they make this honey.
No pesticides, no antibiotics, no overstocking of hives, no hauling bees around for convenience. The bees stay in the remote manuka forests of New Zealand, feed on their own honey through the winter, and work at their natural pace so the comb is fully developed. Ethical beekeeping is the foundation of this honey.

So yes, the glass jars look beautiful on your counter, but the real story is that they protect one of the most uniquely powerful honeys on the planet. Manukora is what happens when premium ingredients, ethical practices, and real science show up in one spoon.

If you’ve tried Manukora, did you notice the difference too?

Comment LINKS for my coupon and link.

These readers are the definition of inexpensive done right.

Lightweight frame, spring hinges that don’t pinch, and blue light lenses that actually cut down on eye fatigue.

They also have a 7-layer anti-reflective and anti-scratch coating, so you aren’t dealing with glare or wrecked lenses two weeks in.

Cute, functional, and only $25-32…That’s the kind of math I like.

Winter is about to hit full force here in Idaho, which means the usual circus is coming. Jacket first, then the harness. Or harness first, then the jacket. Either way it adds time, frustration, and a dog staring at me like I’m the problem.

This little jacket solved it. The harness is built in, they step in, zip up, clip, and we are out the door without the drama. Bless whoever invented this.

How much would this combo help you? Tell me what your winter dog situation looks like.

I’ve heard people rave about these N By Naked Wardrobe items, but didn’t get it until I actually tried them for myself.

They are so soft and stay put! Normally tighter shirts ride-up on me since my waist is smaller than my hips, but this one didn’t do that 👏🏻

I got it in white and black / short sleeve and long sleeve.

I sized up to a Medium

Can you believe this dress is from Amazon and is only around $50?!?! I ultimately decided NOT to size-up.

I’m super impressed and love that it comes in so many colors and even a long sleeve version.

I can see this made really formal with heels and an updo or more casual for a vacation dinner on an island with leather sandals.

This is the Rose Red color in a small…I got the medium in and it was way too big (I’m 5’9” and typically a 4/6 or 26/27).

Easies Brow Hack EVER!

I stumbled across this on accident when my friend @gypsyadventures told me that she was using @sweedbeauty BROWN mascara on her brows…Her brows looked so good I thought they’d been microbladed 🤩

I tried to apply the mascara to my brows perfectly and failed miserably, so I grabbed a cotton pad to wipe it off and voila…the brow trick I never knew I needed.

I’ve been doing my brows this way all week and am hooked!

The Ultimate Lash Curling Hack! 🔥✨

🚨 Be EXTREMELY careful when trying this—your eye area is delicate! 🚨

After years of battling stubborn, straight lashes, I finally found what works! Here’s how to keep them lifted all day:

🔥 Step 1: Start with a high-quality lash curler (Tweezerman, Shu Uemura, or Shiseido).
💨 Step 2: Use your hairdryer to gently heat the curler—think of it like a mini curling iron for your lashes!
🖐 Step 3: Keep your hand on it while heating; as soon as it feels almost too hot to touch, turn off the dryer.
🌬 Step 4: Test the curler’s heat with your fingers first—I always blow on it to cool it down slightly before bringing it up to my eye area.
⏳ Step 5: Curl your lashes for at least 10 seconds, then repeat on the other eye (you may need to reheat it).

I’ve tried heated lash curlers before, but they lose their effectiveness quickly. This trick? Game changer. Just be careful not to burn your skin or lashes! ⚠️

Will you try this? Let me know in the comments! ⬇️

Pillowcases Dirtier Than 🚽 Seats? 🤢

Your pillowcase might be dirtier than a toilet seat after just one week—and here’s why:

😴 Sweat, oil, and dead skin cells build up overnight.
💄 Product residue and makeup soak into the fabric (pretty pls always remove your makeup & wash your face!).
🌎 Environmental pollutants get trapped in the fibers.
🦠 Unlike a toilet seat, your pillowcase is a bacteria breeding ground!

So what can you do?
✨ Wash your pillowcase every 2-3 days
✨ Use silk or antimicrobial fabrics
✨ If you have acne-prone skin, switch it nightly or sleep on a clean towel

Want to know my favorite pillow for preventing wrinkles that I also put a silk pillowcase on? See below! 🛏️✨

🐾 NEW FAVE ALERT: My dogs are obsessed with their West Paw toys — the Toppl and the Zogoflex 🤍 (two different toys, both total lifesavers for enrichment!)

Here’s why I’m hooked too:

🔹 Mental enrichment = calmer, more regulated dogs

Licking = endorphin release = natural stress relief 🧠💆‍♀️

Puzzle play satisfies their instinct to forage 🐾

🔹 How I use them:

The Toppl is perfect for filling with goat milk yogurt — freeze & serve 🍦

The Zogoflex is technically for dog cookies or treats...
👉 But I also sneak some yogurt in there, and it works like a charm 😉

I give them their frozen goodies before meetings = instant quiet time 🎧

🔹 The result?

They race to their kennels in excitement 🐕‍🦺

They stay calm, quiet, and totally focused 🙌

Bonus: goat milk yogurt = gut-friendly probiotics ✨

This little ritual has saved my sanity during work hours 🙏

Highly recommend if your dogs get vocal during Zooms 😂

💬 Got a go-to enrichment routine? Share it below — I’m always collecting ideas! ⬇️

Swipe the stress (and toxins) away—one soak at a time.

This is always where I started with my clients—and myself—when beginning a gentle detox journey. Detox baths like this are a foundational first step you can ease into gradually. You control the water temperature, ingredient amounts, and overall intensity—making it ideal for even the most sensitive systems.

Here’s the exact recipe I’ve used for over a decade:

• ½ bottle Hydrogen Peroxide (Costco) – Often said to act as a carrier, enhancing ingredient interaction with the skin and supporting oxygen exposure at the surface level. ⚗️
• 1 Vitabath Vitamin C Tablet (Amazon) – Helps neutralize chlorine and chloramine in tap water, reducing oxidative stress on the skin barrier. ✨
• ½ cup Baking Soda (Costco) – Balances the water’s pH, soothes irritation, and may support the body’s natural elimination processes. 🛁
• 3–4 cups Magnesium Flakes (Fullscript or Amazon) – More bioavailable than Epsom salts and known to support muscle recovery, nervous system regulation, and restful sleep. 🧠💤
• Essential Oils (optional) – Lavender offers calming aromatherapeutic benefits. Avoid citrus oils—they can irritate the skin (learned that the hard way!) 🌿⚠️

NOTE: If you have breast implants, consider keeping bath water at or below the waist. Elevated temps may impact implant materials and increase the release of certain compounds. ❗

I always recommend taking this bath at night—it’s a science-supported way to help the body unwind and recover. 🌙

Classic wardrobe staples…

I needed to take my in-laws to their doctor’s appointment today, and they always show up looking sharp, so yoga pants were off the table.

I grabbed my classic wool pencil pants and this 100% Organic Cotton Sweater Jacket in ivory/black from Quince — a piece that looks just as good on a 25-year-old as it does on an 85-year-old.

I paired it with my classic Gucci ballet flats that I’ve had for over 10 years (proof that when you take care of quality pieces, they last).

It’s timeless, effortless, and exactly the kind of thing I want in my closet at this stage of life. Honestly, everything I’ve ever ordered from Quince has impressed me.
