latest book recap Sharing a roundup of the latest books and if they’re worth adding to your collection. Hi friends! How are you? I hope your week is off to a great start. We’re exploring Kyoto – SO gorgeous here!!- and having the best time. I’ll share more pics in Friday Faves and a recap when we’re back. In the meantime, I wanted to chat about books. TBH, my book goal has kind of fallen by the wayside this year. I was so consistent the past few years, but lately, by the time we go to bed, I’m exhausted and crash out. I might read for five minutes before I decide to go to sleep… and it takes a long time to finish a book that way! Now that summer is here, I’m going to spend more time reading with the crew, during the day (<— hoping this makes a huge difference). My current plan (we’ll see how this works) is that in order to have screens, the kids have to make their bed, get dressed and brush their teeth, complete two chores, read for 30 minutes, and move their body (or ...

The Rise Of Discreet Tobacco-Free Nicotine Alternatives In Modern Lifestyles Adult women juggling work and family are turning to flavored, spit-free options that fit pockets and schedules without smoke or odor. This article walks through how strength, taste, and daily habit actually fit together. Balancing conference calls, school pickups, and a quick grocery run leaves little time for stepping outside or carrying extra gear, and many adult women describe wanting a pause that doesn’t announce itself to everyone in the room. Flavor, strength, and discretion have become the real talking points at brunch tables and Slack channels alike, with conversations shifting toward what fits easily into a purse, what leaves no trace on clothes, and what feels personal rather than performative. It’s easy to get curious when something promises simplicity without smoke, spit, or that lingering scent on your sweater. Modern Habits Call For Completely Smoke Free Options Browsing the online...

things that Lola has done (eaten) Lola has never had a formal blog introduction, but she’s now 6 months old and I’m sharing some of the mischief she’s gotten into instead. It’s much more fitting this way. We knew that we eventually wanted to get another dog. When Maisey started to act more grandma than puppy – sleeping on the couch and just seemed bored during the day – we figured it would be sooner rather than later. The Pilot and I had discussed it and knew we wanted to make it happen. He wrapped up the pieces to this puzzle for Christmas: The girls and I each had a piece and when we put it together, the girls squealed, and I shed a couple of tears because I was excited and it was so cute to see them so happy. He figured we’d pick out a puppy and it would be a while until she was actually home with us, but the girls and I had Lola picked out the next day and he was flying out to Salt Lake City within a week to pick her up. (We act quickly around here haha.) She is ...

The Role of Magnesium in Women’s Health (Why You’re Probably Low) Let’s chat about my favorite mineral today – magnesium!!  Hi friends! How are ya? I hope that you’re having a lovely morning. We are in Seoul right now! I’ll be sharing lots of adventures (probably too many) on IG stories if you’d like to follow along. We are also going to Tokyo and Kyoto. For today’s post, I wanted to chat about the benefits of lovely magnesium and muscle cramps. For most of my young adult life, I would wake up in the morning, point my toes to stretch, and my entire calf muscle would immediately seize up in the most violent cramp imaginable. I was genuinely convinced that I was going to perish. (It may sound dramatic but if you’ve ever experienced this, you understand.) The cramps were even worse during both of my pregnancies. And knowing what I know now as an Integrative Health Practitioner , that makes complete sense, because growing babies draw heavily o...

Silicon Valley Wants to Merge the Human Brain With AI: Sci-Fi Fantasy or the Future of Humanity? An Idea That Once Sounded Like Science Fiction For decades, the idea of humans directly connecting their brains to computers sounded like pure science fiction. Concepts like brain chips, digital consciousness, and merging humans with machines belonged mostly to futuristic movies, cyberpunk novels, and conspiracy theories. Today, however, that conversation is becoming very real. Across Silicon Valley, a growing number of AI companies, investors, and neurotechnology startups are openly discussing a future where the human brain could be directly linked to artificial intelligence systems. What once sounded extreme is now becoming part of serious business strategies, billion-dollar investments, and long-term technological planning. From AI Assistants to “Upgrading” Humans The movement behind these ideas is known as transhumanism. It is a philosophical and technological belief that humans c...

what to do in Vegas with tweens and teens Sharing a roundup of some of my favorite things to do in Vegas with teens or tweens! Hi hi! How are you? I hope you had an amazing weekend! We celebrated graduations, birthday parties, and then packed up for a little adventure Summer is here and I’m excited to visit as many places as we possibly can and escape the scorching Tucson oven. For today’s post, I wanted to share some Vegas highlights! We met up with the Pilot in Vegas a few weeks ago, just for a night. (We also got upgraded to the penthouse two-bedrom suite at the Bellagio and it was EPIC.) It was the girls’ first *real* time in Vegas (last time they were babies), and they’re obsessed. P said it’s one of her top favorite places (NYC is #1, then Vegas, then Honolulu, Rome, and Barcelona.) While Vegas is definitely an adult place, you can definitely have fun as a family with kids. Growing up, my dad used to take us to Vegas every summer, so it’s a place that I’ve visited many time...
