July 23, 2020 by Katie Wells

As moms, procrastination is all too familiar to most of us. This is because we often have a list of things we’d rather not do!

Is Tilapia Healthy for You?

July 11, 2020 by Katie Wells

Fish is considered a healthy source of protein because it’s lean, easy to digest, and filled with healthy omega-3 fatty acids and other important minerals. However, the dark side of the story is that about 50% of the fish we eat are factory farmed, and tilapia takes a fair share of that percentage. According to Seafood Health …

Natural Remedies for Growing Pains

July 1, 2020 by Katie Wells

We talk a lot about chronic pain on the podcast, but sometimes the pain we deal with is not chronic or even problematic (though totally real and, well, painful!).
