Morning supplements can be a beneficial addition to your daily routine. Supplements can aid in addressing nutritional gaps, supporting immune function, enhancing cognitive performance, and promoting overall well-being. I’m on a mission to stick to my routine every single day this year, even when I’m on the road or going through tough times. I’ve made my supplements non-negotiable because I’ve noticed that skipping them throws me off. Consistency is the key to really feeling the benefits of these supplements.

You all know how important skincare is to me, but so is taking care of my teeth! One of my most frequently asked questions is “Thamarr, what is your teeth whitening routine?!”. I have a few tips and tricks that keep my pearly whites shiny and bright, and I’m sharing them all today!

We are well into 2022 and some may say that at this point you either are sticking to your resolutions or have let them fall to the wayside.

Why do we do this to ourselves?  Personal growth and improvement doesn’t have a start date or expiration date at that.  We are human and the goal is to always be wanting to improve and be better.

The summer season is a perfect excuse to get up and get moving. Whether that means swimming at the beach or hiking outdoors, there are ample opportunities for you to feel refreshed and get fit during this time. But, what do you do to stay active on the days where the summer weather is less than accommodating?

If you’re like most people, you may think about heading to your local gym for a quick workout.

TRUE STORY: I’m 34 years old and my mother still reminds me to eat my veggies.

I have a pretty good excuse.

To be honest with my crazy schedule, a lot of meals are made (or purchased) out of convenience and don’t always have the daily serving of fruit or veggies.

I hate eating breakfast and find myself skipping and starving come lunch time so I figured a way that I can address these two issues by making a green smoothie that I can whip up in a flash and it doesn’t taste like 🤮

It’s never too late to start making better decisions.

As women, over time it’s expected that we learn lessons that will benefit our health, wellbeing and overall safety.  When we were younger it was, “eat all your veggies,” “don’t talk to strangers,” or “look both ways before you cross the street.” 

As we got older we learned to always let someone know when you’re going on a date, how to balance your checkbook and how to give yourself a breast exam.

But one lesson that I’ve learned as a nurse from the last 13 years is the importance of advocating for my patients, myself, family and friends; especially when it comes to our health.

For the better part of the year I’ve been sharing monthly hauls from Fabletics.  It’s no suprise that I am a huge fan.

I first discovered how amazing Fabletics actually was last summer while pepping for my trip to Europe.

I was in need of a comfortable yet cute travel outfit that would also act as compression leggings.

After putting them to the test and loving the fit and feel I was super excited to start my partnership with them earlier this year.

So it’s barely mid January and the arsenal of fitness pages with promotional ads on the latest ways to lose weight, get fit or get bikini body ready is upon us.  Welcome to 2019!

I don’t know about you but I have this crazy idea that I can work out and be active without the intentional purpose to lose weight to meet someone else’s idea of having a great year.

My workouts are selfceare sessions.

I’m very proud of the fact that at any given time I can look like I just came from a workout or I’m planning on working out.

It’s called athleisure honey!  

The beauty behind this kind of dress is that it’s for your own personal comfort and no else!  No one ever needs to know if you’re heading to SoulCylce or the grocery store.  All they will see is that girl is styling in the comfiest and coziest.

For the last year and a half I have been making it a goal to be more active but more specifically, not letting a week go by without spending some “me time” at the gym.

Not with the intention of becoming a size zero but to challenge myself and because I love my body and want to take care of it.  Not to mention, I feel amazing after crushing my work out.

Around this time of year so many of us are pressured into trying to get back to our pre October 2017 bodies in order to make 2018 the best year yet.
