This Naked Mind: by Annie Grace
My husband bought me this book for Christmas in 2019.
At the time, it should have been a red flag. I wasn’t ready to hear the truth, but Annie Grace’s words planted a seed that would eventually change my life.
This Naked Mind isn’t your typical recovery book. It doesn’t shame, preach, or tell you what to do—it gently pulls back the curtain on the real reasons we drink, and why it’s so hard to stop. Through a powerful mix of neuroscience, psychology, cultural critique, and Annie’s deeply honest story, this book helped me see alcohol in a whole new light.

It’s not about fear—it’s about facts. If you care about your health, this episode will shift your perspective.

The Best Granola
This granola is a staple in our house.
We make it on repeat—and haven’t bought store-bought granola since. It’s perfect on smoothie bowls, yogurt, or straight out of the jar (I shamelessly dig for the clusters). Once you try it, you’ll never go back.

Weighted Vest
My favorite way to level up a walk or workout? This weighted vest.
It adds resistance, making everyday movement more effective. Whether I’m going for a walk, doing a HIIT workout, or just chasing more strength and stamina, this vest helps build muscle, boost endurance, and even improve posture. I started with the 12 lb. and am ready to move up to 16 lb.
