She’s been standing at the sink forever lately. Sometimes she’s actually washing dishes, sometimes she’s just playing in the water, but either way she’s completely content there. She pulls up her stool like it’s her station and gets to work without hesitation. I love how natural it feels for her to be in the kitchen, reaching for tools, gathering ingredients, wiping things down with this quiet little seriousness. There’s this steady confidence in her, like of course she can do the dishes, of course she can help, of course she belongs here.

I find myself just watching her sometimes, thinking about how this simple rhythm of cooking, cleaning, and being part of it all is shaping her. How comfortable she is in this space. And I imagine one day she’ll be in her own kitchen, making food for friends, hosting, laughing, building her own life around a table. For now it’s just bubbles and warm water and tiny hands, but it already feels like something bigger. 💛

Audio on! 🥹 a candid studio moment with my girl and it’s my favorite video of us to date. My heart can hardly hold the love have for her so every day it expands to keep up.

This is a fun trend. As far as my work goes, I feel seen. To round it out though, I’d add ceramics and little dragons for my love of fantasy fiction.

Hell yes! As a dietitian of 15 years, this feels like a huge milestone.

Yesterday it was announced that the American food guidance has essentially flipped the old food pyramid on its head—and honestly, it’s about time. Real, whole food is now at the center of the recommendations. There’s a clear call to put high-quality, nutrient-dense proteins at the center and to reduce or avoid highly refined carbohydrates, industrial seed oils, chemical additives, and the like. Traditionally prepared grains are acknowledged for what they are—foods that can be supportive when prepared properly, not something to fear or eliminate across the board.

For those of us who’ve been working in the trenches, watching people struggle under outdated, overly simplistic nutrition advice, this feels like a long-overdue course correction. This is a much better representation of how food can be used for health, healing, and long-term resilience in this country. It supports blood sugar balance, digestion, inflammation regulation, and metabolic health without asking people to live at extremes or chase perfection.

I love the direction this is moving. I love seeing real food, context, and common sense make their way back into national recommendations. If you’re curious to read more, look at the data, or see the progress being made, head to realfood.gov.

This is what progress looks like—and I’m genuinely hopeful about where we’re headed.

Before Auna was born, we sat down and talked through how we wanted to make family decisions — not perfectly, but thoughtfully. How we’d honor everyone’s needs as best we could. That conversation still echoes today, especially when it comes to how and where we live.

We move between two places, and it’s a delicate balance. Travis would happily split time evenly. I feel most grounded with Texas as home base. And Auna? She’s fully team Colorado. I don’t know exactly what the next few years will look like, and honestly, that part stretches me.

What I don’t often share is how taxing the constant resetting can be. Every move means rebuilding my environment and reestablishing the rhythms that help my body feel safe and steady. There are compromises I’ve made along the way, and some I’m no longer willing to make. This season feels like a return to my own non-negotiables.

And still — the mountains. The way the sky turns pink and orange at night. The crisp air. The quiet awe. There’s a deep sense of rightness here that I can’t deny.

I’m learning that this season isn’t about choosing one thing over another. It’s about staying present inside the movement. Letting it be a dance. Finding home not just in a place, but in how we show up for each other — again and again.

Even healthy foods can cause bloating. To combat this, focus on balancing your gut microbiome for long-term digestive flexibility.

I took Auna to a park dance party in Austin, and someone came up to me and said, “Man, I really need to start bringing my kids to things like this.” And I exclaimed — hell yes, you do!

This is how children learn what community feels like, not just what it looks like. They get to see all kinds of people moving through life differently, expressing themselves freely, and sharing space with joy. It teaches them that belonging doesn’t require sameness — just openness.

Life doesn’t have to be rigid or small. It can be playful, expansive, and deeply connective — and our kids feel that when we let them be part of it. Also she wants kids her age to play with so there’s that too!

There are seasons in our lives that ask us to slow down, even when everything around us is telling us to keep going.

Winter, both externally and internally, is meant to be a time of rest, consolidation, and repair.

When we ignore that rhythm and try to live in “summer mode” all year — constant output, stimulation, and productivity — the body eventually pushes back through fatigue, inflammation, or burnout.

Just like the natural world, our bodies need periods of quiet to rebuild reserves and restore balance. When we allow ourselves to move with seasons instead of against them, we create resilience rather than exhaustion.

Rest isn’t a failure of discipline — it’s a necessary part of long-term health.
