    I remember the exact time my sister-in-law called me on July 29, 2022. Her words were frantic, but I told her, we are on our way! It’ll be okay. The Paramedics will fix it! She’ll be okay. But Brody, I think he knew. Something in his silence told me what I was unwilling to believe….

    Have you ever felt like your brain is a relentless swarm of “what ifs” and worst-case scenarios? Like your mind is a chaotic mess of thoughts that refuse to let you breathe? Yeah. Me too. And let me tell you, it’s exhausting. I am exhausted! Recently, in therapy, I described it as feeling like a…

    Hello Again, World (or Just My Husband, 2 Friends and Nana Reading This) So, here’s the thing: I used to run this little blog called TalkMentalToMe. It was my cozy corner on the internet, a place where I shared my thoughts on mental health for everyone (or 2 of you to read). But then… life…

but did you know they change — so when was the last time you checked in with yours?

I would 10/10 recommend marrying someone who pays attention when you talk about your love languages, and also knows when the change…in those little moments, that may not be so little.

I need to reduce my sugar BIG time - and these … a I need to reduce my sugar BIG time - and these … are SO GOOD! 

LOW SUGAR HIGH PROTEIN PEANUT BUTTER CUPS 
Recipe from @nourishedinstitute @jasstupak 

Ingredients:
1 bag chocolate chips
1 tsp coconut oil
salt for topping

For the filling:
1/3 cup peanut butter crunchy or creamy
1/4 cup vanilla protein powder (I use @goodprotein & discount code MIKAELA30 will save you $$)
1/4 cup maple syrup

Instructions: Add chocolate chips and coconut oil to a bowl. Melt in the microwave for 30 to 45 seconds. 
Line a muffin tin with liners. Spoon about 1 tbsp melted chocolate into each and gently swirl to coat the bottom.
Mix all filling ingredients in a bowl until smooth. Spoon filling over the chocolate layer. (Honestly …. Harder than I thought 😂) 
Top with remaining melted chocolate and a sprinkle of flaky salt. @maldonsalt (MY FAV) 

Freeze for 20 to 30 minutes until set, then store in the fridge.

Low sugar, high protein, refined sugar free and so satisfying.

Almost spring break and my nervous system is…doing Almost spring break and my nervous system is…doing its best. Body battery stuck at a solid 2%. But here are a few memes/quotes/whatever we’re calling them that made me laugh — hopefully they do the same for you. And if you’re throwing your animal a quinceañera… please invite me. I will absolutely attend.

Also, if the alternative to breathwork is screaming, that honestly feels like a wellness plan I can get behind.

Anyway.
Who’s meeting me in the forest for a scream? 🌲😌

Happy almost Friday!

Easy meals = fed body. Difficult meals = Nutella from a spoon.
