Salads

Salads are a great way to showcase vibrant, in-season produce. While they are a great way to get your greens, they don’t always have to include lettuce. Add your favorite protein to make them a satiating meal.

RECIPE BELOW 💪 Preparing nutritious meals doesn't have to be another part-time job. Between work meetings, school pickups and kids' activities, is your lunch whatever you can grab in five minutes? A protein bar. A handful of crackers. Leftovers from your kid's plate. Or maybe you skip it altogether. And then you're wondering why you're exhausted, craving something sweet at 3 PM and starving by dinner. Here's the thing: You can't expect your body to perform at its best when you're consistently under-fueling it. Especially in midlife, when getting enough protein to support muscle and enough fiber for gut and metabolic health becomes increasingly important. But the solution isn't spending your entire Sunday prepping perfectly portioned meals. It's having a few easy, nutrient-dense options you can make once and eat on repeat. You don't need more time. You need fewer decisions. And that's exactly why I love this soup. 👇 Makes 4 servings: 1 small white onion rings(about 1 cup chopped) 1 tbsp olive oil 1 pound of chicken (or sub 12 oz rotisserie chicken and cut out the chicken cooking time) 1 jar salsa verde 4 cups low sodium chicken bone broth (I like Dr. Kelly Ann) 1 can (3.5 cups) low sodium white beans (I like white navy beans), rinsed 1.5 cups frozen brown rice 1/2 cup sliced green onion 1/2 cup cilantro more green onion, cilantro for garnish. Heat a large pot over medium high heat. Add olive oil. Add onion and cook for 3-5 minutes. Add raw chicken to the pot. Pour in salsa verde and bone broth. Cover and cook over medium heat for 10 minutes. In the meantime chop green onion and cilantro. Once chicken is cooked through, shut off heat. Shred chicken in pot. Add green onion, cilantro and brown rice. Turn back on heat. Cook over medium heat. I'm a functional nutritionist and health coach helping ambitious women 40+ build strength, energy and lasting health without putting their lives on hold.

What if the answer to feeling better after 40 isn't doing more, but getting really clear on what actually matters? That's the biggest lesson I've learned from my own health journey. For years, I was putting so much effort into being healthy. But I wasn't always putting that effort into the things that would make the biggest difference. And I see so many women in midlife doing the same thing. We're spending money on supplements, experimenting with new diets, trying different workouts, and chasing the next wellness trend. Meanwhile, the things that can really move the needle aren't getting enough attention. Building muscle. Eating enough protein and fiber. Prioritizing sleep. Recovering from our workouts. Managing stress. Not glamorous. Not viral-worthy. Not particularly complicated. But incredibly important, especially in midlife. The real strategy is knowing which fundamentals need your attention most, how to make them work in your ACTUAL life, and what you can stop wasting energy on. That realization changed how I take care of myself. And it's the foundation of how I approach helping other women. Because you don't need to do ALL the things. You need to do the things that matter most, consistently enough to make a difference. That's why I created Live Powerfully: to help high-performing women over 40 cut through the wellness noise and build a personalized strategy for feeling stronger, more energized and more confident. Not more wellness information. More clarity on what actually works for YOU. Comment REBUILD and I'll send you my free Five Day Rebuild to help you start focusing on what matters most. #womenover40 #workingmom #entrepreneurmom #corporatelife #perimenopause

I said what I said. Everyone is trying to balance their hormones, or if they're in perimenopause, replacing their hormones. And well, yes our hormones are fluctuating, but they don't tell the whole story. our hormones respond to other stressors in the body. I work with clients to get at the root of these issues. Instead of asking "how do I fix my hormones" ask "what are my hormones responding to?"

We are the boss babe generation. We built our lives on very little sleep, a lot of caffeine, and the ability to push through everything, and it worked for a very long time, but perimenopause changes the game. Shifting hormones have made our bodies less resilient - but that doesn’t mean we have to accept the narrative of “this is what life is like now”. Here's what actually works now: - Combine protein + fiber at every meal. Aim for about 25 to 30 grams to steady your energy and blood sugar through the morning. - Find a progressive strength training program you love and lift weights two to three times a week. Strength training protects muscle, bone and insulin sensitivity as estrogen declines. - Walk for 10 minutes after your biggest meal. It helps your muscles soak up glucose and blunts the afternoon crash. -Keep a consistent bedtime. A steady sleep window does more for your hormones than any supplement. - Go easy on alcohol. It disrupts sleep and can worsen hot flashes and night sweats. Small shifts, done consistently, add up fast in this season. Follow @livepowerfullyco for more realistic, science-backed support for midlife women. #perimenopause #midlifewomen #womenshealth #strengthtraining #functionalnutrition
