Welcome to the late-July lull. It’s the time of year when the days blur, motivation dips, and it’s tempting to hit cruise control. But with just a few mindful tweaks, you can reset your rhythm, sharpen your habits, and set yourself up to actually enjoy the rest of summer—without losing momentum.
Here are three small but mighty strategies I swear by this week.
(more…)We’ve officially made it past financial quarter close and, for those in the U.S., the Fourth of July frenzy. Whether you’re easing back into work mode or still juggling half-days and summer Fridays, now’s the time to reset.
The good news? Staying on track doesn’t require a full-on life overhaul. These three low-lift, high-impact habits are helping me stay grounded, energized, and a little less scatterbrained in the summer haze.

Here are the three things I swear by right now:
Smart Swaps for Your BBQ Favorites—No Bloat, No Regrets Whether you’re grilling in the backyard, headed to a potluck, or posted up on the beach with a cooler, this guide…
You’ve probably heard the advice: “Eat your veggies first.” But how you eat them—and when—makes a huge difference. That’s the power of meal sequencing.
Meal sequencing is a simple but powerful strategy where you eat foods in a specific order to help with satiety, digestion, and blood sugar regulation. And in my daily routine, it’s become a game-changer for portion control, meal satisfaction, and food waste.
So, what’s my go-to move?
I start every major meal with The Big Salad.
We’re heading into Q3, and if your calendar feels more crowded than a TSA checkpoint on a Monday morning, you’re not alone. The good news? Staying on track doesn’t require a total life overhaul.

We’re midway through June, inboxes are overflowing, and that iced-coffee habit is starting to look like a personality trait. If you’re craving a reset that actually fits between back-to-back meetings, grab these three low-lift, high-impact wins. Each one delivers a ridiculous return on just a few minutes of your time — no elaborate gear, no 4 a.m. alarms, no vision-board chanting required. 😉
You know it’s summer when you start seeing pictures of the frothy, creamy, colorful Starbucks drinks pop up on the menu.
What you might not know is that many of these favorites, even when not supersized, are the calorie and sugar equivalent of a large candy bar. And have far in excess of the recommended sugar intake sometimes on a daily basis. While following my 80-20 approach can definitely leave room for an indulgent Starbucks drink as is, regular consumption of these “empty calories” will not only add up but will leave you unsatisfied, as there is no significant amount of protein, fiber, or fat in any of them.
But you don’t have to be left out in the heat. If you are a Starbucks person, you know you are already reading this, so here’s how you try cool drinks without drinking a lot of empty calories. In this article, I will give you the truth about these drinks but I will also recommend dupes you can order to get the taste without the unnecessary filling.
