  • 09 | 5 Points to Eating Well With a Mediterranean Diet
    Oct 13 2025

    Hey Friend!

    When you think of Mediterranean foods do you only come up with gyros and souvlaki in your mind? Does Mediterranean food conjure up a picture of a table with a plate of hummus with pita bread on the side and a backdrop of bright white Greek buildings and a clear blue sky? While hummus, pita, gyros and souvlaki all are part of the Mediterranean cuisine (Egyptian, Lebanese, Greek, etc), the Mediterranean diet is a broader and a loose guideline based off of the Mediterranean cuisine.

    In this episode, I will go over the details of what a Mediterranean diet looks like. If you want clarity on what that looks like and how to implement it in your daily life, this is the episode for you!

  • 07 | No Time To Cook? Here's 5 Healthy Snacks So Your Busy Family Eats Well
    Sep 29 2025

    Is there no time to cook? Are you squeezing multiple sports for multiple kids this season? Do you have to travel for your child’s tournaments, competitions, or performances and have zero time to cook?

There will be plenty of times when this is the only option, but how can we reduce this possibility?

    In this episode, I will share 5 healthy, no-cook snack options a busy mom can quickly prepare for her family.

    • Luke 5:12-16
