Your First Step To a Healthier, Happier You ( Even As a Busy Mom )

For many moms, health often ends up at the bottom of the priority list. Between school drop - offs, work deadlines, and the never- ending to-do list, it can feel impossible to carve out time for yourself. But as Jessica, a mom of two and one of our most valued team members, reminds us - taking care of your health doesn’t have to be complicated. It just starts with one step.

Jessica’s Journey to a Healthier Life

When asked if she’s always been health conscious, Jessica shared that her commitment started in her 20’s:

“ My dad was my biggest influence and moving to Califor5nia exposed me to a completely different culture around health.”

Today, Jessica prioritizes eating clean - lots of vegetables, fruits, and fresh ingredients- something she didn’t grow up with.

“Growing up, I mostly had canned vegetables. Now, I stick to fresh and raw veggies, avoid red meat and pork, and keep fried food to a minimum.”

Her health journey really leveled up when she discovered the power of exercise:

“ I found working out later in life , and it changed everything - I had more energy, more vitality , and felt so much clearer and focused”.

Simple, Realistic Tips For Busy Moms

Jessica knows firsthand how hard it is to juggle motherhood and self-care, which is why her advice is refreshingly doable:

Start Small: “ Pick one day a week to meal prep. Go for a walk. Take the stairs. “

Just Move: “ Walking is one of the easiest, most effective first steps toward feeling better.”

Stay Hydrated : Water is one of the simplest forms of self- care, but it makes a big difference. You can put a bit of lemon juice or mint for bit more flavor.”

Health as a Way of Life

For Jessica, health isn’t just about looking good - It is about feeling strong and giving her kids the tools to thrive:

“I see food as medicine” she explains, “ What we eat affects how we feel - our energy , our mood, even our stress levels.”

For Jessica, It’[s about finding balance and making small, consistent choices that keep her feeling her best.
