Any advice you’d like to give someone who thinks it’s hard or expensive to eat healthy?
Meal prep! It is easier to eat healthy if you have healthy choices available to you. Especially snacks. It is so easy to reach for unhealthy snacks if you don't have some readily available. It is cheaper to make it yourself than to buy healthy food . My advice is to cook at home as much as you possibly can.
Favorite quote?
"Of all the paths you take in life, make sure a few of them are dirt". John Muir
Who or what motivates you ?
Who - my sister. My inspiring, loving, full of positive light, glowing sister. She motivated me to be a better person.
What- hiking and sunsets. Stars. The moon. Nature of any kind. It reconnects me, rejuvenates my spirit and motivates me to live to the fullest.
Any natural remedies you swear by?
Ginger and tumeric . Ginger keeps my immunity high and tumeric for whenever I am feeling a little inflamed. I also love a good probiotic.
Whats one of your favorite things about life?
Nature
Proudest moment?
Getting married. Standing up there, saying I do to the best man I've ever met.
Any final words you'd like to share?
Make sure you take care of yourself. I think this is so important. Have time to yourself. Eat healthy, but also have that wine. Eat that donut. Enjoy your life! Get out in nature, it is amazing how just taking a hike and getting fresh air can make you feel.
