💪🏼 Protein is essential for us ladies! Not just for energy and muscle, but for hormone balance, blood sugar stability, and vibrant skin, hair, and bones. 🌈

Here are 4 Easy Ways to Sneak in More Protein:

1. Homemade Marshmallows with Gelatin
Gelatin is a powerhouse for women, supporting bones, joints, gut health, skin, hair, and especially postpartum healing. Pop a few into your coffee for an easy 6g boost!

2. Sprinkle H**p Seeds on Snacks
Just 1 tablespoon adds 3g of complete plant protein…perfect over yogurt, toast, or fruit.

3. Bake with Protein Powder
Add collagen or protein blends to muffins or banana bread. I love Whey + Colostrum + Collagen…one slice of this protein banana bread I made is about 25g of protein!

4. Pair Fruit with Protein
Level up your snack by adding nut butter and a meat stick. Hello 14g of protein with your apple! (Some of my favorite meat sticks I’ve had are - they are not dry and hard to chew like some other brands!)

How do you like to get your protein in throughout the day? Leave your snack ideas in the comments!

Make this black sesame super milk with me💪🏻
This is one of my favorite ways to support my body in a simple, intentional way. I mix Prenatal Multi Powder into this creamy black sesame blend for daily nourishment that tastes SO good. Since I’m still breastfeeding, I’m still using a prenatal and love to bounce between capsules and powder.

This multivitamin supports energy, hormone balance, and foundational nutrients for women. Black sesame is rich in calcium, iron, healthy fats, and antioxidants for strong bones, glowing skin, and healthy hair. This is really a super milk! 🥛

Recipe:�2 pitted Medjool dates�1 tbsp black sesame seed tahini�1.5 cups milk of choice�1 scoop Needed Prenatal Multi Powder�1/4 tsp cinnamon�Pinch of salt
Blend until smooth and enjoy ☺️

Your body doesn’t suddenly need less just because baby is here. Postpartum is a time of deep repair, hormone shifts, and often feeding another human. Nutrient needs are actually higher than during pregnancy! 🤯

Three simple staples I always come back to:

Bone broth
Rich in collagen, glycine, and minerals that support tissue repair, gut health, and recovery after birth. Warm, easy to digest, and especially helpful when your appetite is low but your body still needs nourishment.

Eggs
One of the most complete foods you can eat. Packed with protein, choline for brain health (yours and baby’s if you’re breastfeeding), and essential fats that help stabilize energy and support healing.

Oats
Comforting, grounding, and full of fiber to support digestion and steady blood sugar. They also contain iron and can help support milk supply for some women.

Eat warm foods. Eat often. Keep it simple.

Make sure to share this with mom in your life!

Everyone wants a postpartum meal plan… but in my opinion, moments to reset your nervous system matter just as much.

It’s probably no surprise that I care deeply about nutrition! Warm, soft, easy-to-digest foods, nourishing fats, protein, fiber for healing and lactation. That foundation matters.

But here’s what I see over and over again: you can be eating all the “right” foods and still feel completely off. On edge. Uncentered. Detached from what makes you YOU.

If your nervous system is fried… food won’t fix that.

Yes postpartum healing is absolutely a physical journey, but it’s also neurological, emotional, spiritual. You’re meeting a new version of yourself, and if you have no space to breathe, to expand your capacity for doing ‘hard things,’ it’s going to be hard for you to be able to be present in your new role. To enjoy it all.

And no, I’m not saying go do a strenuous hike right after having a baby. That’s not the point.

The point is finding small ways to let your body exhale.
Fresh air. Sunlight. Slow movement. A change of scenery. A moment where you’re not in survival mode.

I found having a list in my notes app of a few things I know bring my micro-moments of joy and nervous system regulation to be sooo helpful.

Food is powerful.
But it’s not meant to carry the whole load.

Is bright plastic and fake grass really the upgrade we needed? Please, cities, make more playgrounds like this AWESOME playground 🪵🛝

Ok I still supplement with vitamin D because I am breastfeeding and live pretty far north, so I am not relying on mushrooms alone. 🍄

But this is such an easy way to add more in naturally! Studies show increases of anywhere from about 10x to over 100x. 15–30 minutes of direct sunlight can bring mushrooms to roughly 200–800 IU per serving!

Vitamin D matters for so many things. It helps your body absorb calcium which is key for strong bones, especially for women as we get older and want to protect bone density 💪🏻

It also plays a role in mood and immune health. If you have ever felt extra low during darker months, low vitamin D can be part of that 😑

Mushrooms are one of the only foods that can actually increase their vitamin D content when exposed to sunlight 🍄‍🟫

It is a small habit that feels simple but adds up ✨

INGREDIENTS
1 cup rolled oats
1/4 cup protein powder (I used )

Mix all dry ingredients together. Add in cashew butter and maple syrup and mix until well combined. If adding in some sprinkles, mix in now. Roll into balls (makes about 8-10). Melt white chocolate using a double boiler method and roll balls in it until fully covered. Let rest on parchment paper and transfer to fridge to set for about 20 minutes. Enjoy!

As always, let me know if you try these out!
