Needless to say, this was such a dream opportunity. Over the summer, I was approached to do an interview and feature piece for Health Magazine. This was made possible by Emsculpt Neo and their mission to highlight modern mamas who are “normalizing” me-time and willing to try new technology to elevate themselves and their body goals to new heights. I was pretty pumped up to be selected for this feature and I’m even more excited now that I can share my full interview with you all… plus a Aw all the bright and sporty content I created for this collaboration. Here’s to an extra sparkly, sporty, and elevated 2023. Let me know which question inspires you the most in the comments below.

HOW I COMPLETELY REVITALIZED MY CORE WITH ADVANCED SKIN AND BODY SOLUTIONS
HEALTHY MAMACommentYou may remember the article I shared earlier this year titled, Bikini Body Countdown with Advanced Skin and Body Solutions. I shared my truth about my struggle getting back into a bikini after having twins. It was a vulnerable share about disappointment after not achieving my bounce-back body as quickly as I had after my first pregnancy. Fortunately, through trial-and-error and lots of research, I was introduced to my dream-team at Advanced Skin and Body Solutions, who continue making ALL my body goals come to life.

HEALTHY MAMA2 CommentsVULNERABLE SHARE ALERT – As women, our bodies go through so MUCH from puberty to adulthood, and motherhood to menopause – there’s A LOT going on between hormones, weight gain… oh and, growing humans inside our bodies… etc. And through every stage we’re expected to love, accept, and embrace all the changes along the way. For some, that transition is easy. For most, like me, it’s been a STRUGGLE.

TIPS FOR A BETTER NIGHT SLEEP
HEALTHY MAMACommentYou know how people always say once you have kids you’ll never sleep the same. Meaning you always sleep with one ear open! I don’t know about you Mamas, but I’ve found this to be absolutely true. Even though my son is three and sleeps through the night, I still have a hard time falling asleep and am a much lighter sleeper than I used to be. Needless to say, I not always the most well-rested Mama when my alarm clocks rings the next day!
MOCK MILKSHAKE FOR BREAKFAST
HEALTHY MAMACommentOk Mamas, I don’t know about you, but my busy little one has been refusing to eat breakfast lately. Not because he’s not hungry, more so because he is just too excited to play with toys or pretend he’s a superhero (ha!). Basically anything other than actually sitting down to eat. This dilemma calls for some serious Mama creativity….

HEALTHY MAMACommentWE'RE STRONGER THAN WE THINK
HEALTHY MAMACommentTruly! Learning how to breathe through the pain and give yourself a pep talk - you’ll
surprise yourself with your threshold! Motherhood is the ultimate testament to this
theory. Literally, in every aspect: pregnancy, the delivery, postpartum, those sleepless
newborn nights, sleep regressions, and constant toddler negotiations. And most
recently for me, literally having to carry my 40 lbs toddler around everywhere for 4-
weeks when he broke his leg.

RECIPE: MOM FUEL SMOOTHIE
HEALTHY MAMAMy caffeinated, vegan-protein packed smoothie recipe is the ultimate energy boost. Because let’s be real — who has time to drink coffee without the risk of it spilling all over themselves while chasing a toddler. My smoothie is full of great ingredients like spinach, berries, bananas and — for those mornings where I’m extra hungry — a little almond butter does the trick.
YOGA SERIES: LEARNING HOW TO BREATHE
HEALTHY MAMALet’s be real: Being a mother is hard. It’s truly a labor of love. Motherhood means you’re constantly putting the happiness and well being of your little ones above your own. For me, in order to be the best mother, model, wife and friend, I have to allow myself time to recharge. My favorite self-care routine is yoga. I always leave feeling stronger, re-centered and more focused.
