3.28 Friday Faves Hi friends! Happy weekend to ya! I’m here with Friday Faves on a Saturday. The Pilot was gone all week this week, so I was doing the solo parenting thing.

Gaining Myself Back After Kids Becoming a parent is, hands-down, one of the most transformative experiences anyone can have. It’s a whirlwind filled with midnight feedings, diaper changes, joyous first words, and memories that would warm the coldest heart. But, amidst the chaos and wonder, I lost sight of myself. It was almost like my sense of identity was swaddled along with my newborn. Feeling a bit invisible was not entirely unexpected, but reclaiming myself seemed like climbing a mountain I hadn’t prepared for. How did I navigate my way back? Here’s my story. Finding Time for Myself My first step was carving out “me time.” It sounds almost foolishly simple, but you’d be surprised how challenging it is with a newborn. Initially, just reading a few pages of my favorite book felt like a guilty pleasure. I wanted to know what happened next in the story; with every page, I felt a sense of accomplishment returning. Setting aside even 15 minutes helped remind me of the simple joys I ...

I have a brand new podcast episode live, and today I’m talking about something that is so close to my heart: Where our food actually comes from. I’m joined by the incredible Jenni Harris, fifth-generation farmer and Director of Marketing at White Oak Pastures, a leading regenerative farm in Bluffton, Georgia.

Here’s what we chat about: What regenerative agriculture actually means and why it goes beyond “sustainable” The three shifts (industrialized, commoditized, centralized) that changed farming for the worse and how White Oak Pastures is swinging the pendulum back Why animal welfare is about more than just being “cage-free” and what it real...

TLDR version: I LOVE IT, but it might not be for eve...
