Ever been told “It’s in your genes”… like your health is already decided for you?

Here’s the truth: Your genes load the gun, but your lifestyle pulls the trigger.
Yes, some people inherit genes that increase their risk for insulin resistance… belly-fat storage, poor insulin response, sluggish energy after meals.

But those genes aren’t your destiny. They’re just information. Information you can work with — not fear.

When you move your body, build muscle, sleep well, and support your gut… you’re literally turning OFF the switches that push your metabolism toward insulin resistance.

Your daily habits can silence risky genes and activate the protective ones.
That’s the part most people never get told.

It’s easy to look at your DNA report and think, “Well, that’s it. My genes say so.”

But your genes aren’t the author of your story. They’re the outline.

How you eat, move, rest, and manage stress determines whether certain genes switch “on” or “off.”

That’s the beauty of functional nutrition — it reminds you that you have influence over your biology every single day.

Your genetic blueprint is simply information.
The way you live turns that information into transformation.

So instead of fearing what your genes might say,
Ask: What do my choices say to them?

✨ Empowerment starts with understanding, not surrender.

Learn how your genes guide your nutrient needs and how your choices change the story. 🔗 Link in comments

October photo dump...

One of my favorite months never disappoints.
This one was full of tennis matches,
a little music made with spoons,
stunning sunrises and sunsets,
an anniversary dinner to remember,
live music nights, and
plenty of cozy reading time on the back porch.
Here’s to more golden-hour moments and simple joys.

How was your October?

We have officially started the holiday season! While Halloween can be fun, even without little kiddos, remember it is one day of fun. Be careful not to turn it into a weekend party, or excuse to start on Monday.

Your mood, energy, and stress levels aren’t just “in your head.”

They’re deeply connected to your hormones, the chemical messengers that link your mind and body.

When your hormones are balanced, your emotions follow. 🧠💛💪

If you’re eating “healthy” but still feel tired, bloated, or stuck—it’s not your willpower. It’s your hormones.

Your insulin, thyroid, cortisol, and other hormones shape how your body uses energy, handles stress, and burns fat. When they’re out of sync, even the cleanest diet can fall flat.

🍽️ Learn how to use food to bring your hormones (and your energy) back into balance.

The key? Balance.

I want to share a bit of my experience in case it helps someone else out there.

For a while, I was feeling off — trouble focusing, restless sleep, just a general sense that something wasn’t right. Eventually got my hormones tested, and sure enough, my testosterone was low.

Started exploring treatment:
Tried threcream— didn’t do much for me.
Tried a pellet — wasn’t a fan
Now I’m on a troche l(basically a lozenge that dissolves under your tongue). It’s made at a compounding pharmacy and I take it daily. So far, it’s been a better fit.

If you’re not feeling like yourself — even if your doctor hasn’t brought it up — you can ask about hormone testing and explore different options. There’s no one-size-fits-all, but there options.

Let's get real for a second. You’ve probably seen protein chips popping up everywhere, right? High protein, low carb, sounds great… until you take a closer look.

Here’s the truth: These chips might have protein, but they’re PACKED with ultra-processed junk. No real food, no whole ingredients. Just synthetic fillers, weird additives, and a ton of stuff your body doesn’t need.

The food industry is getting slick—slapping "protein" on garbage food to make you feel like you're making a healthy choice. But don’t be fooled! Just because something has protein doesn’t mean it’s worth it. We’re not here for a protein boost from chemicals and processed nonsense.

Your body deserves REAL food. Skip the protein chips and go for whole foods like eggs, lean meats, beans, and veggies. That’s the protein your body actually craves.

Avoid the trash. Choose real food.

Low progesterone can leave you feeling off — from restless nights to mood swings. The good news? Nourishing your body with the right foods can make a difference.

Add these nutrient-rich options to your plate and pair it with stress management, quality sleep, and moderate exercise to help your hormones work with you, not against you.

Your hormones thrive when you give them the support they need.

Progesterone is the quiet hormone hero. It balances estrogen, supports sleep, and helps keep your mood steady. But during perimenopause, it is often the first hormone to dip, years before estrogen does.

That is why so many women feel “off” long before menopause officially begins. Disrupted sleep, restless energy, and feeling more on edge than usual are all common signs.

The good news? Simple shifts like adding B6, magnesium, healthy fats, and stress management can make a big difference.
