Summary

I just got back from our family’s annual Spring Break trip to Florida, and honestly? We just played. Nonstop. The whole time. It was amazing, and it got me thinking: would a vacation filled with this much fun and play have been possible if alcohol was in the mix? I really don’t think so. 


One of the biggest lies we’re sold is that we need alcohol to have fun. That is not true at all. In fact, alcohol steals fun. I’m so grateful that sobriety has given me the ability to experience the kind of fun and play that makes me feel like a kid again.  


I wrote more about our Spring Break over on my Substack. Check it out here!

Okay, there are weeks when I'm totally on top of it cooking, grocery shopping, and actually

and snacks and whatever's easiest because life is so full. And I'm not pretending that balance

is out. And that is exactly why I take ritual. It gives me peace

of mind that even when I'm not eating perfectly, I'm still covering the basics. They're essential

for women 18 plus is built around the nutrients most of us are actually missing, and it's designed to

absorb well, which of course matters. I take in the morning, usually before my coffee.

0:39.4

It's simple. It doesn't upset my stomach and it has this light, minty taste that makes it easier

to take consistently. And I care about what's in it. Ritual is vegan, non-GMO, tested for heavy

Over the years, I've tried a ridiculous number of body care products like

lotions, oils, and things that promise the world, and then just end up sitting half

used in my drawer. But one brand I keep coming back to is Osea. Their seaweed

1:31.1

powered formulas are clinically tested and designed to deliver visible results in their lineup

body oil. It's one of their best sellers and even won a

1:45.7

2025 Allure Best of Beauty Award. It absorbs really fast and doesn't leave that gross, greasy

feeling and it gives my skin this instant hydrated glow. I usually use it right after the shower

and my skin just looks smoother and much more radiant.
