Instagram post 18016296070250626 #ad I'm a California native, born and raised! Now I'm raising my family in one of the most beautiful places in California, Lake Tahoe! Yes, I'm extremely lucky.

I'm sure you'll agree, California is awesome and as a Californian, we need to keep it awesome. By making a few small changes to your daily energy routine, collectively we can help create a big change. 
I'm talking about using cleaner energy. When you use energy outside of the hours of 4-9 pm, you can use cleaner energy that is created by the sun and the wind, which helps protect California. 
It’s as simple as holding off on chores like running the dishwasher until right before you head to bed. 
I’m proud to live in #California and I'm making small changes to #KeepItGolden and protect places like #LakeTahoe!

It's not always easy or pretty, but I try to give you a glimpse of reality with grace and laughter. 
Big thanks to all who have followed from the beginning, joined along the way and stuck with me through 2019. My year of growth! I cannot express how grateful I am for each one of you.

Instagram post 17854065007720111 You're never too old to try something new.

Yesterday, I played hooky to ski... Yes yours truly, a snowboarder of 20+ years, skied! I skied and I loved it! 
I'm not going to lie, the last few winters have been tough. Heavy snowfall and a loss of love for snowboarding. I would find any reason to not go if it wasn't a powder day. Yesterday challenged me. It made me fall in love with winter again! 
Did I fall? You bet!

Did I laugh? OMG, if you could have seen me. I laughed so hard I almost peed my pants.

Will I go again? Heck yeah! Luckily friends hooked your gal up with a full setup so I can go anytime!

Why am I telling you this? Because we've all encountered a rut or two. Remember it's just a moment in time. You have two choices. You can continue to live in the status quo or you can do something about it.

Skiing yesterday was me doing something about it. Being ok with being uncomfortable. Pushing myself. Living in the moment and never wasting a day! 
What changes are you making today?

Instagram post 18008147035265849 Happy Saturday friends! Hope you have an epic adventure planned today. Don’t forget to pack some snacks 😘

Snacks are life!

Need some snack ideas?

Here are a few ideas: - Apples & PB/AB (natural is best)
- Veggies w/ a "healthy" dip (i.e., hummus, yogurt based, etc.)
- Roasted Garbanzo Beans
- Greek yogurt & berries
- Hard boiled egg
- String cheese
- Salmon with cucumber
- Protein bites/balls (like the one I posted last week)
- rice cakes
- protein bar like @epicbar 
What do you love snacking on?
Instagram post 17931622570336498 Keep smiling friends.

That’s what I tell myself when things don’t go as planned. Keep smiling this too shall pass. While you can't control everything. You can control how you react. You can keep smiling and pushing forward. 
I was tested as an entrepreneur in ways I never thought this year. While things changed, in the end for the better, I just kept on smiling. I also learned a lot! I'm able to do this because I’ve found what drives me. What truly makes me HAPPY. It’s taken a lot of time and reflection to get to this point. But it's possible if you're willing to put in the work

How is this applied to your health & wellness journey? It doesn’t matter what size you are if you’re not happy on the inside. So before you start cutting, reversing, maintaining, fasting, etc. In the end, to truly be happy you need to work on yourself too. 
Fix your mindset and the rest will follow. 📸: @courtneyaaronphoto
Instagram post 18098082448099388 Sound the alarm, it's baking season! 
I'm often asked how I do it. How do I maintain? How do I eat all the veggies? How am I so disciplined? etc.

Here's the answer. I found my "why," a food balance, but most importantly I'm consistent. I enjoy the foods I love in moderation. Like these sweet bars of magic. Did I eat one? You bet! I enjoyed every single bite, logged it and moved on! Yup, I'm keeping myself accountable, enjoying the holidays and slaying goals! Is your mind blown?

Tracking macros taught me what food is made of. What I need to fuel my body and achieve goals. Oh, and the ability to eat a "treat" without guilt! There's no need for the all or nothing mentality.

Need help? Want accountability? Let's work together! Are you in?

Simple ways to Save and Make Money

Let’s talk money, it’s never an easy subject and typically a topic of the table at dinner parties, etc., but today I want to dive into simple ways you can save and make a few extra dollars. Remember a few dollars/cents here and there can add up to a few hundred dollars by the end of the year.

ThredUP | A quick and easy way to buy and sell clothes. Order a bag online, fill up the bag with gently used items and send it back. ThredUp will purchase what they think they can resell and donate the rest. It’s pretty much hassle free. Want $10 off your first purchase join ThredUP via my LINK and start shopping.

PoshMark | Ok, with a few clicks on your phone you can set up your own consignment shop via the PoshMark app. This app has been a real money maker for me. Yup, since may I’ve sold 14 items and made roughly $130. Oh does it work? You list your item and set your own price. PoshMark keeps 20% and provides you with the shipping label. While you might have to wait a few weeks for items to sell the return is can be higher than ThredUP. Download the app today and start selling! Sign up with code PTGUE to get $5 off your first order.

EBATES | Get paid to shop online. I personally to 90% of my shopping online. So why not make money for doing something you would do either way. Stores pay EBATES a commission for sending members to their websites, and they share a percentage with you. For example 1% at Target, 6% at GAP, and 9% at Macy’s. They even offer cash back on travel! Get cash back for shopping on Ebates! Sign up with my invite link, HERE, for a $10 bonus when you shop at over 2,000 stores!

Ibotta | In short, Ibotta is a rebate app giving you cash back on qualifying purchases. How does it work? Before you shop, add rebates by completing simple tasks. Buy the products you selected at any participating store. Don’t forget your receipt! Redeem your rebates by taking a photo of your receipt or just by linking your loyalty card. Ibotta matches the items you bought to the rebates you selected and gives you the cash! Your cash back will be deposited into your Ibotta account within 48 hours. Use my referral code, eoltjxx, and you will receive a $10 welcome bonus! Sign up, HERE.

eBay | While I’m not a power seller and having listed anything in a while I do still occasionally dabble in selling items via eBay. If you have the time, patience, and the right items it’s worth listening on eBay. In the past, I’ve sold gear, clothes, fine jewelry, and name brand purses.

Craigslist/Local Online UpCycle Groups | Have some big ticket items, but don’t want to host a garage sale and would like to make a few bucks? This is your next best option. Plan to haggle, but again if you have the time and patience it’s a great avenue to make a few extra bucks. I typical price things to sell to limit any haggling.

There you have it. Just a few ways I make a few extra bucks. In our household, all the “extra” money goes into our fun account.

So what are you selling? Do you have tips?

Disclaimer: I’m not a financial advisor. I’m just a gal who was taught the fundamentals of money i.e., saving and budgeting.
