Navigating Perimenopause with Anti-Inflammatory Foods

Perimenopause has a way of sneaking up on you , one minute you’re thriving, and the next you’re wondering why your energy, sleep, and patience suddenly took a vacation. I’ve learned that food plays a huge role in how we feel during this transition, and small changes can make a big difference. So let’s talk about the kind of foods that help you feel more balanced, calm the inflammation, and bring your glow back — without giving up the things you love.

Why Inflammation Matters

Here’s the deal: as estrogen starts doing its disappearing act, inflammation can creep up and make everything feel worse — joint pain, fatigue, bloating, mood swings, you name it.
Keeping inflammation down isn’t just a trend; it’s how we protect our heart, brain, gut, and overall sense of balance. Perimenopause: The Frenemy Who Thinks Sleep Is Overrated

When inflammation runs wild, it’s like your body’s alarm system never turns off. That constant low-grade “buzz” leads to stress on your organs, slower metabolism, and even more hormonal chaos.
But the good news? You can absolutely calm the storm — starting with what’s on your plate.

The 80/20 Rule Keeps Me Sane

I live by the 80/20 rule — I eat nutrient and vitamin packed , anti-inflammatory foods 80% of the time and enjoy my favorites guilt-free 20% of the time. Balance is everything.
Because let’s face it, I’m not giving up fries or a good slice of cake forever. But I am mindful, most of the time.

If you don’t know where to start, the Mediterranean diet is a great blueprint:

Fresh veggies and leafy greens
Whole grains and oats
Healthy fats (olive oil, avocado, nuts)
Lean proteins and fatty fish
Fruits, especially berries

It’s less about restriction and more about nourishing your hormones and gut.

A Gut-Friendly Start to the Day

If perimenopause had a breakfast mascot, it would be a yogurt bowl.
Here’s mine: plain Greek yogurt + mixed berries + a sprinkle of granola + a drizzle of honey + a sprinkle of cinnamon + a cup of decaf green tea.
Simple, satisfying, and gut-loving.

Yogurt gives your gut probiotics — those friendly bacteria that help with digestion and hormone balance.
Berries are packed with antioxidants that fight inflammation and keep your skin glowing.
Green tea (especially decaf) contains compounds that reduce inflammation and support metabolism without the caffeine crash.

If you prefer something heartier, oats and whole grains are your best friends. They help balance blood sugar and keep you full — which means fewer snack attacks later.

Eat the Rainbow

I always say, “Eat with color.” The more color on your plate, the more nutrients you’re giving your body.
Leafy greens (spinach, kale, arugula), orange veggies (sweet potatoes, peppers), and purples (eggplant, blueberries) all help reduce inflammation and support energy levels.
And don’t forget fatty fish like salmon or sardines — full of omega-3s that support brain and heart health.

Hydration + Herbal Tea = A Game Changer

Perimenopause dehydration is real, and it shows up everywhere — skin, mood, and even sleep.
Drink plenty of water throughout the day. I like to add lemon and cucumber slices to give it a little more flavor and added benefits.

At night, wind down with peppermint, lemon-ginger, or sleepytime tea.
These herbs aid digestion, soothe the stomach, and calm your nervous system, basically a hug in a cup.

Perimenopause doesn’t have to feel like a mystery or a punishment. Think of it as your body asking for better fuel and gentler care.

So yes, eat the berries, sip the tea, and honor your 80/20 balance. Because the goal isn’t perfection, it’s peace.

Mental Note of the Day

Feed your hormones with kindness, and your body will thank you later.

Texts Are Easy—But Connection Takes More Than a Screen

There’s something powerful about hearing someone’s voice. The way it rises with excitement or softens with love—something no meme or GIF can ever replicate.

After Mother’s Day, I had a conversation with my mom that really stuck with me. She was fed up. And I don’t blame her.
She told me how she finally let her sisters—my aunts—know exactly how she felt. Every holiday, without fail, they send a text. Not a personal call, not a check-in, not even a quick hello. Just a forwarded meme or animated greeting.

She told them, “I’m your sister—not just a contact in your phone. Hearing your voice means more to me than a sticker or a saying someone else wrote.”

And I felt that.

Because she’s right.

When Did Connection Become a Checklist?

We’ve gotten so used to convenience that meaningful effort now feels optional.
Mass texts, generic messages, DMs—they’re easy. They don’t require much. You send, you move on, and you feel like you’ve done something.

But is it really connection?

In a time where we’re constantly “connected,” people are lonelier than ever. Depression, anxiety, loss of confidence, crumbling friendships, broken families, and social tension are all on the rise.
Why?

Because we stopped looking each other in the eyes.
We stopped calling.
We stopped showing up.

Instead, we reach for our phones—tiny devices that somehow made the world bigger and yet our relationships smaller. What High School Can Teach Us About Who We’re Becoming (Even as Adults)

The shift to digital-only interactions may feel harmless, but let’s be honest:
It’s changing us in ways we don’t talk about enough.

Social anxiety is rising because people no longer practice real-time interaction.
Empathy is fading because we’re not hearing tone or seeing tears—we’re just scrolling past someone’s pain.
Conflict resolution? Nearly nonexistent. If a disagreement happens, it’s easier to ghost or post a passive-aggressive status than pick up the phone.
Self-worth is now measured in likes, not love.

Let’s get back to hugging people, showing up for birthdays, dropping off a coffee “just because,” calling instead of texting, and asking, “How are you really?”—and waiting for the answer.

Let’s trade quick emojis for quality time.
Let’s say less with our thumbs and more with our time and presence.

Because truth be told, a phone call can heal more than 50 messages.
A hug can do more than any heart emoji.
And being seen and heard in real life is still the deepest form of love and connection.

❤️ Try This This Week:

Call one person you usually only text. Just say, “I was thinking about you.”
Invite someone for coffee or a walk. Be present—no phones.
Ask someone how they are, then truly listen.
Skip the group chat for a voice note or video message. Let people hear your heart.
Reflect on one relationship that deserves more than a “Happy Holiday” meme. Reconnect on purpose.

We all want to be seen, heard, loved, and remembered. But none of that happens accidentally. It takes effort—but it’s worth it.

Don’t let screens shrink your relationships.
Don’t let technology take the place of true connection.

Pick up the phone.
Knock on the door.
Make the time.
Be intentional.

Because in the end, no one wants to feel like just another name in your inbox.

🌞 How to Have Fun with What You Have This Summer

Summer is here—and contrary to what social media might make you think, you don’t have to spend big to have big fun. In fact, some of the best memories are made at local parks, city events, and spontaneous moments that cost little to nothing.

black amazon kindle tablet near brown drawstring sun hat

Over the last few years, we’ve made it a mission to explore what’s happening around us instead of waiting for a vacation or an invitation. We’ve discovered local gems like Thursday Night Live, Food Truck Fridays, and classic car weekend events. Now? These outings are traditions we look forward to every year. They’re affordable, exciting, and remind us that joy is often just around the corner—literally. Don’t Wait Until the Weekend to Have Fun: Embrace Joy Every Day

Here’s why having fun with what you have is a win:

It saves money.
It encourages you to explore your own city or nearby towns.
It gets you outdoors, away from screens, and into fresh air.
It helps you meet new people and try new things.
It allows for spontaneity and meaningful moments.

Whether it’s a trip to your neighborhood pool, a picnic at the park, or checking out a local concert series, these moments are more than summer fun—they’re about tapping into a new season of refresh and renewal.

This is your reminder: you don’t need to book a plane ticket or spend hundreds on entertainment to make summer special. Joy is already available. You just have to say yes to it.

10 Truths to Remember—No Matter Where You Are in Life

Life is a journey—and some days we’re thriving, while others we’re just trying to make it through.
Whether you’re in a season of transition, uncertainty, or rebuilding, I want to offer you a few gentle reminders. Think of this as a little food for thought to nourish your mindset and keep you going:

1. You can’t care about everything.

Your peace is sacred. Protect your energy by learning to let go of what doesn’t deserve space in your mind or heart.

2. No matter what, someone will always have something negative to say. Live your life anyway.

You can’t live for the approval of others. People will judge you whether you do everything “right” or not—so you might as well do what makes you happy.

3. You are the only one responsible for your happiness.

It’s not your partner’s, parent’s, or friend’s job to make you happy. It’s yours. Build a life you love—on your terms.

4. If something doesn’t work out, don’t give up. Try again and again.

Failure isn’t the end—it’s feedback. Reset, rethink, and show up again. Your consistency is your power.

5. Everyone will not be happy for you.

And that’s okay. Keep shining anyway. Real supporters won’t feel threatened by your growth.

6. Your growth will inspire some—and intimidate others.

Don’t shrink to fit into someone else’s comfort zone. The right people will clap for your success .

7. Pay attention to people’s actions—not just their words.

Talk is cheap. If their actions don’t match their promises, believe what they do—not what they say.

8. Nothing changes if nothing changes.

Waiting won’t create progress. It’s time to make a move—even if it’s a small one.

9. Courage is being yourself every day in a world that tells you to be someone else.

You don’t need to fit in when you were made to stand out. Authenticity is your superpower.

10. Becoming less reactive is a sign of major growth.

Letting everything get to you? That drains you. Learning to pause, breathe, and respond instead of react is healing in motion.

Wherever you are right now, remind yourself—you’re still growing, still learning, and still showing up. That matters more than perfection. Hello February: A Fresh Reminder to Focus on What Truly Matters

How Morning Walks Can Transform Your Day and Mindset

I’ve never been one to gravitate toward morning workouts, but recently, I’ve discovered how much morning walks can transform my day and mindset—especially on the weekends. There’s something about waking up early, lacing up my walking shoes, and hitting the pavement that sets a positive tone for the day ahead. It’s motivating, inspiring, and gives me a sense of accomplishment before the day even begins. Plus, it’s a great way to spend time with myself and connect with nature.

photo of person wearing red low top sneakers

My routine is simple but effective. I usually wake up, throw on some comfortable clothes, and do a quick two-step skincare routine (toner pad and serum—just enough to feel refreshed before I head out). Then, I grab a protein shake, start my fitness watch, and I’m ready to go. As soon as I start walking, I can feel my energy levels rising, my mind clearing, and my mood lifting. It’s like hitting a reset button for the day.

The Benefits of Walking in the Morning

There are so many pros to getting your walk done in the morning, both for your physical and mental well-being:

Boosts Your Energy:
While it may seem counterintuitive, getting up and moving first thing in the morning can actually increase your energy levels for the rest of the day. The fresh air and movement wake up your body and mind, leaving you feeling energized and ready to tackle whatever’s on your to-do list.
Sets a Positive Tone for the Day:
Starting your day with a walk gives you a sense of accomplishment. You’ve already done something great for your body and mind before most people are even awake. This sense of achievement carries over into the rest of your day, motivating you to keep the momentum going.
Enhances Mental Clarity:
Morning walks give you the space to clear your head. Whether you use that time to think, listen to a podcast, or simply enjoy the sounds of nature, walking helps organize your thoughts and puts you in a calm, focused mindset for the day ahead. The Importance of Journaling: Finding Clarity Amidst Chaos
Improves Mood and Reduces Stress:
Walking is a proven mood booster, thanks to the release of endorphins. It also reduces stress levels, making it the perfect way to start your day on a calm, positive note. I always feel more balanced and less anxious after my morning walks.
Gets You Outside:
Spending time in nature is an instant mood lifter. Whether it’s a park, a quiet neighborhood street, or even a bustling city, being outdoors gives you a break from screens and allows you to connect with the world around you. Morning walks give you that daily dose of fresh air and sunshine, which can also boost your vitamin D levels.
Encourages Consistency:
Walking is one of the most accessible forms of exercise. It doesn’t require fancy equipment or a gym membership, just a good pair of shoes. Doing it in the morning creates a consistent routine, making it easier to stay on track with your fitness goals.
Inspires Productivity:
There’s something about getting your walk in early that makes you feel more productive throughout the day. You’ve already accomplished something meaningful before 9 a.m., and that sense of productivity can spill over into other tasks, helping you stay focused and motivated.

Conclusion

While I used to struggle with the idea of being a morning workout person, weekend morning walks have completely changed my perspective. They inspire me, give me a reason to get excited about the day, and help me approach my tasks with a positive and motivated mindset. If you’re looking for an easy way to boost your mood, energy, and productivity, I highly recommend adding a morning walk to your routine.

Finding Joy In Authentic Living

This past weekend, my husband and I celebrated 18 years of marriage, and like clockwork, everyone who knew about it asked the same question: “So, what are y’all going to do to celebrate?” I get it—when people think of anniversaries, they often picture grand gestures like dressing up for a fancy dinner, jetting off for a quick vacation, or throwing a big party with family and friends. While that sounds great for some, we chose to do it our way, just as we’ve done throughout our marriage.

Instead of following the traditional “anniversary script,” we spent the day doing all the things we love doing together. It wasn’t flashy or over-the-top—it was simply us. And that’s the beauty of it: whether it’s an anniversary, a milestone, or just a regular day, the secret to happiness is living life your way.

Whenever someone asks us what the secret to our lasting marriage is, we always tell them the same thing: do it your way. Trying to live your life, marriage, or any relationship by what society says you should do just doesn’t work. Life isn’t a one-size-fits-all experience. What brings one person joy may not bring the same sense of fulfillment to another, and that’s perfectly okay.

The truth is, there’s no “right” way to live. The pressure to conform to societal expectations can be overwhelming. You’re supposed to follow the timeline, hit all the traditional milestones, and do things the way everyone else does. But here’s the thing: living your life by someone else’s standards won’t make you happy.

Whether it’s celebrating our anniversary, making decisions about family, or handling life’s challenges, we’ve always found joy and peace in doing things our way.

Living life your way isn’t just about making yourself happy—it’s about living authentically. When you stop trying to meet everyone else’s expectations and start embracing what truly makes you feel fulfilled, everything changes. You’re more at peace, less stressed, and more confident in your decisions.

5 Simple, Yet Powerful Benefits of Living Life On Your Terms

There is joy in authenticity.
You live free from expectations.
You are able to build stronger relationships.
Great confidence booster.
Maintain your self respect.

The idea that you have to follow a certain path to live a happy, fulfilled life is outdated. The truth is, there are no rules. You don’t have to do what everyone else is doing to find joy. You don’t have to follow a checklist or meet certain milestones by a certain age. You’re free to design your life in a way that works for you.

This is the message I want to share with anyone reading this: Live life your way. Don’t let societal pressures or other people’s opinions dictate how you should live and celebrate. Whether you’re celebrating 18 years of marriage or making a big life decision, remember that the only opinion that truly matters is yours. Embracing the Detours of Life: When Plans Go Off Course

As we celebrated our anniversary doing all the things we love together, I was reminded once again of the power of living life on your terms. It’s not about what others expect—it’s about what feels right to you.

So, the next time you feel pressured to conform or follow someone else’s idea of happiness, remember this: you don’t have to. Live life your way, celebrate your way, and enjoy your journey your way. There’s no better way to find joy, fulfillment, and peace than by being true to yourself.

GROWTH CAN LOOK LIKE…

If you’ve been working on yourself, journaling, and seeking help then you’re probably experiencing some changes in how you think or approach situations. You are growing and don’t really know what’s happening. Well growth can look and be different on everyone. However, here are some signs you might be on the up and up.

Growth May Look Like

-It has become easier to set boundaries, implement them, and see them through. You no longer are willing to accept mistreatment for the sake of keeping peace. Also, your boundaries may become stronger and wider.

-You no longer run from your emotions. Lie about how you feel. Or minimize the effect something or someone has on you. Good or bad you sit in your emotions, understand why you’re having the emotion, and grow through it.

-It has become easier and comfortable to talk about how you feel. You seek help or let someone know you need to talk. When someone asks how you’re feeling you are honest and say so. Asking for help can look like getting a therapist, journaling , talking to a friend, inspirational music, or videos.

-You know what your insecurities are, where they come from, and how they show up in your life. You’ve went to the dark place to figure out why comments, people, or situations get an arise out of you. Then you are wanting to correct those negative habits. That is what growth looks like.

-Your sympathy and empathy for others have shown through. You don’t make judgments or pass criticism on others. You attempt to understand how they feel and why they feel the way they do. Your empathy moves you to motivate and encourage them through their process.

-When you are triggered you no longer respond or react. The work have shown you what your triggers are, why they are there, and how to conquer them. It’s easier to move past an unwanted comment or situation.

-You seek deeper relationships with others and want to present your authentic self. You no longer hide or seek solitude. There are excitement to go out and communicate with others. Also your ability to converse with strangers comes easier.

Those are some tips that will help you to know you’re on the path to healing. Many of these tips I have seen in myself and continue to see growth. When you make progress or notice a change be sure to make note of it or journal your experience.

Be well on your journey.

7 THINGS TO DO BEFORE THE END OF SEPTEMBER

The best season is here and there’s so much to do. Fall season is my favorite time of the year. The weather, outdoor activities, cool crisp air, and of course, decor are just a few things to name as to why I love this season. We are just over 10 days into the month of September and there is still time to kick off 🏈 your fall season. Below are 7 things to do before the end of September.

anonymous woman with coffee near pumpkins

Pumpkin Spice it up. The best part of fall is the latte’s. Pumpkin spice, apple cider 🍺, or pumpkin pie latte is all around us. Treat yourself to a latte one morning before work, on your lunch break, a cool Saturday morning, or on that Friday night football game. Get creative and enjoy a great staple of fall season.
Sweater it up. Sweater weather is the best season. Another great reason to love fall. This is the time you get to show off your cool, cozy, sweater style. You can refresh your wardrobe and purchase a new sweater. Gift a sweater to someone. Or be frugal and thrift. No matter what, get into season with a great comfy sweater.
Soup or Chili for comfort. 🍜 What else do we love about fall, those Chili cook off contests. You want to warm up with a nice bowl of chili to watch your new favorite fall shows. Get creative and try some new recipes. There are some amazing Chili recipes out there. On the other hand, a great pot of homemade soup never fails. I grew up on my grandparents and parents making a good pot of vegetable or chicken noodle soup on Sunday. Both Chili and soup is a great way to comfort you soul, while being good for the soul. Lastly, it may provide a great amount of leftovers depending on your family size.
Bake some goodies. 🧁 Cookies, cake, pie, and cobbler all screams fall. After that bowl of chili or soup having a nice piece of pie tops it off. Any of the above mentioned desserts pairs well with your latte as well. Another great part about fall is indulging in all the food, beverages, and desserts. You can still enjoy a good slice of cake and maintain a healthy balanced diet.
Plan your Halloween 🎃 day, night, or weekend. Begin searching all the events that is taking place in your area. You’ll be surprised at the amount of festival, bashes, and parties that are being held in your area. Most importantly there are going to be many that are free. I have older teens that enjoyed some of the events I found in my area last year. It’s more about enjoying the experience, people, food, and fun.
Decorate. 🍁 Give your home a little fall makeover. I know everyone isn’t into having seasonal decor. But rearrange you home. Get some cinnamon, apple cider, or pumpkin scents in the home. If it’s one piece or a whole season of decor get into it. Create a fall visual to your liking to get you into the spirit.
Enjoy the crisp air. 🍂The one thing we need to top off everything is the cool weather out. It will take some of us to get there longer than others. But, I’m beginning to see the change of weather in the morning when I do drop off. The cool weather makes the latte that much more comforting. The chili or soup soothes the soul just right. That sweater wraps around our bodies like a blanket. And the colors in the decor becomes brighter.

If you haven’t already began to enjoy the upcoming fall season. Try one or more of the above to get you into the spirit. SPRING SELF CARE TIPS YOU CAN DO NOW Even if it’s not your “thing” trying something new charges your mental, emotional, and visual spectrum. In result, you’ll step out of your comfort zone and boost your self love, self care, wellness, and positive lifestyle habits.

Enjoy your Sunday!!!!!!!!!!!!

WEEKLY BLOG: WORK FROM HOME TRANSITION, ALLERGY FLARE UP, AND CATCHING UP

This is my first week working from home full time. I’m ready to get the administrative part out of the way and begin actual work. I know there is a process and I’m going to let it play out. Also we don’t have much on the calendar this week as far as events and activities. Therefore, we’re going to use this week to catch up and relax.

Sunday: Finishing up the weekend and the first week of school has been great. I didn’t get to do my daughters hair yesterday so we’re doing it today. After sleeping in and doing my weekend check list. WEEKEND SELF CARE TO DO LIST I decided to head out and run a couple of errands with my daughter. As she gets older I’m being more intentional about spending quality time with her, even though she doesn’t want to. After 2 places she’s ready to head back home. Later in the evening I did some cleaning, laundry, and decided to relax. We ended up watching a program with my daughter before winding down for the night.

Monday: First day of my new schedule. I’m not nervous, or anxious. Just ready to get back to doing my normal work. Morning drop off went ok and I was able to head back and get logged in. I did however, still prepare and get dressed as if I was physically going into the office. It was important for me not to “get out of work mode”. Furthermore, if I need to turn on my camera, I’m ready. In addition to that, on lunch hour, I went for a quick 20 minute walk. Just as if I was still working downtown. After getting off I was able to finish dinner, and then of course go back outside for a good walk. The kids are still getting used to waking up early so they are ready for bed earlier than usual.

Tuesday: Still feeling good about this transition. However, my son’s allergies are flaring up and he just can’t take it. Trying to remedy him and help him breathe is always a challenge. So far another great day of working from home. Continued to go out for lunch and get fresh air. The evening has been pretty calm so far. With my oldest son off to work, youngest son allergies flaring up, and my daughter dealing with cramps everyone has retreated to bed. Although my youngest son is having trouble breathing no matter what we do. I have a feeling as to how this night is going to go.

Wednesday: My son didn’t have a good night and he ended up staying home. My husband also took off today since he’s helping me with the drop off and pick up until I get this work from home transition done. So far it’s going good and I haven’t had any technical issues. I’ve been taking advantage of being at home and getting house work done on breaks. Also at lunch I’ll go out and walk to get some fresh air and get away from my desk. The kids are settling into school and getting back into routine pretty good so far. Keeping up with the many activities, emails, and calendar is the priority right now. After work I finished up some house work, dinner, and went back out for a walk. It’s hump day and we all are ready to retire to bed early.

Thursday: Typical work day and school day. The mornings have been going great. So far none of the kids are fighting me not to get up. I’m getting caught up on some procedural things at work so the next 2 days are going to pretty light. This weekend we aren’t planning on attending any activities. We’re going to use the long weekend to catch up on rest and relaxation. I of course have been transitioning the house to fall. I have plans to do some window cleaning, move furniture around, and clean out closets. After work is a quick grocery run, walk outside, and heading to bed.

Friday: OMG the rain and storm this morning is too much. I don’t like driving in the rain when it’s like this. Thankfully I was able to get drop off done and head home for work. This will be another smooth day before heading into next week with meetings and jam packed schedule. Later… The kids are home and don’t want to do anything but relax and that is perfectly ok with us. After work I took the day off and turned in early.

Saturday: Great morning to sleep in. I got some house work done before heading out to do some errands. After dropping my son off at work we took the younger 2 to the new Starbucks here and sat outside on the patio. It was good to get the kids out and see where their minds are and have some conversation with them. The weather was perfect and breezy sitting under the umbrella table out there. Later in the evening I worked out and did some calendar planning. Did some finishing touches on my work desk and turned in when my son got home.

Have a great week everyone!!!!!!
