6.4 Friday Faves

6.4 Friday Faves Hiiii! Happy Friday! What do you have going on this weekend? We’re back from an INCREDIBLE trip to Korea and Japan. I have so much to tell you guys that I’m splitting it into multiple posts that will start on Monday. If you have any questions or anything I can answer in these, please let me know! I’ll share all of the details on what we did, what we ate, where we stayed, my Korean head spa treatment (glorious), Kyoto and why it’s so magical, eating mostly gf in all of these places, Tokyo DisneySea, ALL the things. The nutshell version is that it was one of our best trips ever and not to be annoying, but it absolutely changed my life. Please send me recovery vibes as I return to everyday living lol. A little bonus is that we had a 12 hours layover in Honolulu on the way home. We checked into a hotel for a day stay and a nap, then headed immediately to the beach for a walk, to get snacks (malasadas, masubi, and acai bowls), and to browse around the shops before ...

Why Women Are Quietly Taking Over the Live Casino Table

Why Women Are Quietly Taking Over the Live Casino Table The stereotype of the online casino as a male-dominated digital basement has been outdated for years. Nobody told the data though, because it keeps proving the point more aggressively every quarter. Women are not just showing up in online gambling spaces anymore. No, they are driving the fastest growth the industry has seen in a decade, and live dealer formats are a significant part of why. The category that is pulling women in at the highest rate is not slots and it is not sports betting. It is  live games , the format that combines the social atmosphere of a real table with the accessibility of a phone screen. There is something genuinely compelling about a format that removes the intimidation of a physical casino floor while keeping the human element that makes table games interesting in the first place. Live dealer blackjack, roulette and baccarat hosted by actual dealers in real time scratch a very different itch than spinn...

latest book recap

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

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)

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)

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...
