I want to live in the now as a badass female. That does not mean that I turn down focus on my future goals or stop reflections of the past, but it does mean that I seriously dial up my appreciation for living in the present.

Let’s talk about SEX, baby. This week’s Q&A is with Carly Haeck, who is incredible. She helps couples navigate relationships, sexual issues and anxiety/depression. This is one of my favorite interviews to date!

I liked the branding and message that the Sakara Life team was putting out on the ‘gram, but really fell in love when I tried THE FOOD. It’s not an easy task to make healthy food taste delicious, let alone for the masses (!), but these women make it look flawless.

Seven years ago, I found myself in the darkest place of my (young) adult life. I was deeply depressed and insecure with who I was, so I controlled every bite of food in order to compensate.  Now, after a lot of self-work and therapy (!), I consider myself fully recovered and want to share some tips that may be helpful, regardless of where you are in your journey.

I first met Hannah at the Good Fest LA a few months back, and was blown away by how emotionally intelligent and down-to-earth she was - not to mention TALENTED. I mean, just take a look at her 'gram feed!

If you guys haven't tried P.S. Snacks healthy cookie dough - what the hellll are you waiting for?! It's one of the best things I've put in and/or around my mouth in a WHILE.
