Let’s talk about how to make a protein shake at home! I love protein shakes. Every morning, I indulge and start my day with a protein shake that is both delicious and packed full of amazing nutrition. But not everyone enjoys starting their day with the same thing in the morning. I often get asked…
Despite what you’d like to believe, your skin is not sterile. Nor should it be! There’s an entire microscopic world living as part of your skin microbiome. And that’s a good thing. So ditch those anti-bacterial soaps and hand sanitizers because, without that skin microbiota, you put your skin at greater risk of developing chronic…
“This is the most amazing salad I’ve ever had,” I recall saying as my sister and I dined at a tiny “hole in the wall” restaurant in Florence, Italy back in 2003. To this day, I still adore and make my own from the pear walnut salad recipe that she and I cobbled together after coming…
Everyone’s stressed out. And I’m willing to bet good money that until now, you’ve probably managed to muscle your way through it. You put on a strong, brave face, right? I get it… I’ve got plenty of clients who do that daily. Heck, I’ve used that method myself for many years in the past. But…

Italian Wedding Soup is a long-time favorite recipe that my mom used to make. As a kid, she’d serve it throughout the year, but it would always make a special appearance at Easter dinner. It’s a beautiful golden broth with rich greens and small meatballs. Just thinking about it brings a smile to my face!…
