Something that I really love to do to kick off the new year is to give myself a word that helps influence my decisions for the upcoming year.

If you've been here for a minute, you've probably heard me talk on high cortisol before and how it can hold you back from progress.

Not sure if you struggle with high cortisol? Your doctor can run tests on cortisol levels to see for sure (I would suggest having them...

Emotional and stress eating is something I had struggled with for YEARS on end!

It was a long, hard and dark ugly time in my past that took a lot to grow from and heal from. What I can tell you, is our emotional triggers to eat from stress/upset/ etc, are learned habits that were set in play with neurological...
