I love being home for the holidays, but it usually leads to weeks of me working on repairing my skin barrier. My skin just can’t handle the extreme climate change. Every year it tends to get super sensitive, red, irritated, and scaly in certain areas.
But not this year! When I was in New York City, I met with Caudalíe’s team and was given one of the very first jars of Premier Cru The Rich Cream to test. And daily use helped me avoid barrier damage this year.
I have been secretly obsessing over this rich, thick-textured, repair cream for weeks and couldn’t wait to share it with you all. This is a cream that goes a long way and has multiple benefits. I absolutely love how effective it is at preventing and repairing skin barrier damage while still giving me anti-aging benefits.
It’s a splurge, but one that is definitely worth it. You can find the @caudalieus Premier Cru The Rich Cream at @sephora. #CaudaliePremierCru #SkinBarrierRepair #CaudaliePartner #Caudalie

If you know me, you know, I’m always up for a challenge especially if it’s initiated by my husband. These kettlebell partner workouts from @asgooch have been extremely challenging but also super fun to do together. I definitely have some work to do with my single kettlebell clean but I’m getting better every week 💪🏽

“Marry your best friend. I do not say that light

“Marry your best friend. I do not say that lightly. Really, truly find the strongest, happiest friendship in the person you fall in love with. Someone who speaks highly of you. Someone you can laugh with. The kind of laughs that make your belly ache, and your nose snort. The embarrassing, earnest, healing kind of laughs. Wit is important. Life is too short not to love someone who lets you be a fool with them.” —Unknown
PS. This why getting through a workout with my hubby takes 2 hours 😂

For me 2022 wasn’t about the incredible things I

For me 2022 wasn’t about the incredible things I accomplished or all the beautiful places I’ve been. 2022 was all about getting out of my comfort zone.
We didn’t just buy a new house, we made a
choice that we felt would give our kids a better quality of life. A choice that meant committing to a lot of change.
It wasn’t just about sitting in a cold plunge or working out. It was about needing to push myself past my physical comfort zone in order to train my mind for the level of focus that I need moving forward.
😬 And this thing in the near future? The next pivot? The thing I’ve been working so very hard on this past year? It’s way out of my comfort zone! It has required me to give all my heart, all my mind, all my money 😂 and it’s pushing me in more ways than I expected. When it all gets scary I remind myself that it takes fearlessness to make dreams come true, to create the change I want to see in my life.
I hope you know that if there are things in your life that you want to change or if there is this thing in your life that you want to do— you can do it, but it’s absolutely going to require you to move past your comfort zone. It’s going to require you to stop fearing failure and start believing in yourself. Because at the end of the day, your biggest regret will not be trying and failing… it will be not trying at all.
Here’s to 2023! I love y’all. Thank you for being here on this journey with me every damn day. I cannot wait for our next adventure together! ♥️
