Many people struggle with health while balancing a busy career or parenthood. What are some simple ways to fit nutrition into a hectic lifestyle?
- - My number one recommendation is to quiet the noise. There are so many “viral” opinions online when we know that sticking to the basics consistently is what leads to long term health outcomes. If you’re eating a diet filled with ultra-processed foods, do not worry about what Tik Tok has to say about cortisol.
- - My second recommendation is to prioritize both fiber & protein! Keep multiple forms of both stocked in your home.
- - My third is to keep it simple. Yes, it’s always fun to try a new recipe, but consistently eating basic balanced meals is key to health within a busy schedule. Not every meal has to be extravagant or trendy.
What are some of the first steps you recommend to someone just beginning their wellness journey?
- Have a playful mindset. The more you can treat health as a joyful open-minded exploration, the more sustainable it will be. The more rigid & fear-based your health journey becomes, the more likely you will be to abandon it all together.
