It was a pretty interesting week for me with content and just personally. I had several really fun and exciting moments (posted a new recipe video & launched a bible study series!); but if I’m being honest, I’ve also been struggling with keeping my mind right when it comes to social media. I hate admitting this, but I often get sucked into the comparison trap of feeling like what I’m doing, what I have, or who I am isn’t good enough. I know that’s not true; but even thought I *know* this in my head, I don’t always believe it. And I think I’ve been spending way too much time consuming other people’s lives and content. Anyway, it became clear to me that I needed a perspective shift and gratitude check.
I’m still processing and figuring out how I can set better boundaries for myself, but I did make a conscious decision at the beginning of the week to *not* scroll or do my best not to consume as much. I’ve muted a ton of accounts and am being more conscious of what I let myself read, watch, and follow. And so far, it has really helped me! I’m sure this will continue to be something I struggle with, but I’m feeling so much better. I also did daily gratitude journaling and spent more time than usual reading my bible, which REALLY helped me keep things in perspective!
On another note, I’m excited to recap some of my favorite moments and products from the week! I’ll admit this blog post took me WAY longer than I anticipated but I’d love to share something like this every week! let me know what you think in the comments below!
Products I’m Loving + Best Sellers
I started doing these weekly best-sellers round up a few weeks ago and I love seeing what y’all love the most each week! A lot of these are similar to last week, but we’ve got a few new pieces too! Gosh I can’t wait until it’s time to wear normal clothes again, can you?!
I really have been wearing that black workout tank on REPEAT – you can click any of the products above to shop!
On Tuesday, I talked about my favorite multivitamins again. I’ve been sharing them about once a month because they’ve become a part of my daily routine and I love Ritual so much! I’ve talked about them before too in my post about habits I want to form in my 30’s and then my post on 8 Things I Do Every (Week) Day.

Workouts
I’ve been sharing 2 workouts a week and you guys really seem to enjoy them! I’m no expert, but I’ve been working virtually with my trainer to put these together and they’ve been kicking my butt! Usually, I try to workout at least 3x a week but these have been so hard that I’ve only been able to muster up the strength to do two of them. So on the other days, I try to learn a dance (did you see the dance I did this week?!) or go on a really long walk!

What I Cooked + Ate This Week
We made some great stuff this week and had a lot of fun in the kitchen. I’m pretty sure I had an açaí bowl every single morning and then avocado toast just about every day for lunch! We tried a couple new dinner recipes but to be honest we weren’t very impressed with the results, so I didn’t share. We tried a chicken farm in the Instant Pot and we were *not* impressed. I’m still trying to figure out how to make something we love in that thing – I keep having bad luck with it! If you’re a big instant pot fan, please send me a recipe you love in it! I need some positive momentum!
