But before, that let’s do a weekly check in. One word- Uncomfortable: This week was uncomfortable but in the best way possible. I felt extremely challenged this week, and when I prevailed, I was proud of myself. In the past, I chose to live a very comfortable life because it was the easiest option.…

Simple and Easy GF/DF Pumpkin Spice French Toast
Let’s talk breakfast food. What is better than a plate of French toast in the morning. Nothing! But the problem for me was that most restaurants and brunch spots carried French toast that didn’t align with my health goals. So instead of just never eating French toast, I decided to create my own. I think a lot of people hold this idea that the “healthy” version isn’t going to be as good as the “unhealthy” version. And that is definitely true with some recipes out there, but my goal here is to give you guys recipes that taste just as good, and even better than the original. I am a…

Food sensitivities can have such large impacts and I can attest that they have caused pretty significant adjustments of the lifestyle I used to live. About two years ago, I started to experience extremely harsh stomach issues, which I later found out to be due to a gluten and dairy sensitivity.

My Journey with Food Sensitivities and Gut Health + Where I’m at Today
Throughout high school, I was eating semi-healthy. I was playing high school and club soccer, so I was extremely active and in very good shape. Food wasn’t something I ever thought deeply about. I pretty much would eat whatever was in my house or what the cafeteria at school had. I definitely wasn’t eating the healthiest I could have, but I would say I ate more or less 50% healthy. Right after high school, I had stopped playing soccer and was not active whatsoever. Soccer was never something I did for the exercise; it was always because I genuinely enjoyed it and when it was no longer a part of…
