A few months ago, I had a pretty enlightening conversation with my therapist. Yes, I see a therapist. This is me stating it like a celebrity pregnancy announcement. A common theme she and I talk about is how I can continue to seek balance in my life. Balance was something I struggled with back when… Continue reading Advice from my Therapist

Documentaries: Science or BS?
As a soon-to-be Registered Dietitian, I often have people ask me about certain diets or eating patterns that they have thought about trying. Many times the inspiration has come from social media, a friend or coworker, or a celebrity, because clearly if Gwyneth Paltrow juice cleanses, it must be good for you! Surprisingly, many times… Continue reading Documentaries: Science or BS?
The Struggle Bus
The past few weeks have been some of the most challenging days I’ve had in a while. While I did have some amazing days throughout (like my sister’s wedding, where I danced my booty off), I had some days where I reallllly struggled to cope with everything I had going on. I recognize that my… Continue reading The Struggle Bus
Check Yourself
Some time ago, I was given a free personal training session by the gym when I joined, and it was only what I can describe as a troubling experience. I arrived to the gym thinking that a trainer would be taking me through a workout (obviously as a means to try to sell me a… Continue reading Check Yourself

If you need proof, just today I texted my dietetics friends and asked what their favorite vitamin and/or mineral was… and I was being completely serious. I know you’re dying to know everyone’s answers, so I’ll fill you in: Kailee:… Continue reading Magnesi-YUM-
Bringing Intention Back
I'm setting food and exercise intentions to break myself out of a funk, because it's time to cut the B.S.
Flex(itarian) Zone
In diet culture, a lot of “facts” are presented in a very black-and-white fashion. Avocados are good for you, but white rice is bad for you. Keto will help you lose weight, no questions asked. Intermittent fasting will banish bloating forever. The list goes on and on. I’ve made it super clear to anyone who… Continue reading Flex(itarian) Zone
Bottom’s Up
I went to a Bachelorette party last weekend where I got to see a lot of my friends from high school. Not only was it great to reconnect with them all, but it was also my first time out as a 21-year-old in the city. I’m the baby of our friend group, so finally feeling… Continue reading Bottom’s Up
