Hey Reader,

It has been a wild week, which has left me craving some healthy comfort food.

And while I'm working on perfecting my recipe for protein-rich pulled pork mac and cheese and home-made healthier snickers, I want to share a tried and true classic cookie that is super easy to make and very delicious.

It also makes me appreciate the small, little habits that help me deal with the craziness of the modern world and keep stress at bay (or at least more at bay than it would be without these tools!) The foundation of that is a morning routine that turns chores into rituals and grounds me in what's truly important in life.

I'm so happy you're here. I hope you have a good weekend and enjoy this cookie recipe!

Will health insurance really double?

the EYWC wellness edit Alicia Pope Hey Reader, You’ve probably heard the government is shut down again, and it's now tied for the second-longest in history. The main disagreement? Whether to extend Affordable Care Act (ACA) tax credits: the financial help that allows millions of Americans to buy private health insurance if their job doesn’t provide it. Think small businesses and independent contractors. We talk a lot about food and lifestyle here, but even with the cleanest diet, you still...

The systems of health - and some Jun

the EYWC wellness edit Alicia Pope Hey Reader, I shared a video recently on my Instagram of a guy making McDonald’s at home with all the preservatives and additives.
