Easy Healthy Hormone Swaps & Hacks đ§ââïž
Powgirls!! Hi hiâ how are you doing? đ«¶đ» Howâs your June been? Personally, Iâve been loving all the sunshine in Austin and spending as much time outside at the barn and by the pool as I can. I feel like itâs really been doing wonders for my mental health and Iâm just truly feeling so grateful to have ended up here. As I continue getting settled into my Texas gal life I canât help but feel like itâs exactly where Greg and I were suppose to be! Maybe Iâll have to do an Austin event for the local powgirls? đ Weâll see!

Anyways, Iâm so excited to get into this newsletter because (as many of you already know) hormone health is so important to me and one of my most highly requested podcast topics. So many aspects of our lifestyles these days are working against us as women and throwing our hormones out of balance. From the food we consume, to the micro toxins weâre exposed to, the high-stress so many of us are under, the lack of nutrients in our dietsâ the list goes on.
Iâve been so intentional about my swaps lately and wanted to give you a little peek at what a day in my life looks like with some super easy hormone balancing food hacks that will not only be such an effortless change you wonât even notice youâve made it, but will 100% make your life easier, too.
Morning Mari loves to get a workout in and get the sweat going. After Iâm showered and prepped for the day, Iâll cook myself a high protein breakfast to fuel my day and get me energized. Iâve noticed I feel so much better and full of energy if I prioritize protein in the morning, so I always cook myself a generous serving of bacon or steak on my non-toxic Caraway pans. I canât imagine life without these pansâ Iâm literally obsessed. I made the swap to them when I realized how many chemicals I was consuming DAILY with my traditional PTFE coated pans, and Iâm so upset I didnât do it sooner. Theyâre such a game changer when it comes to cooking and I feel so at ease and excited to cook knowing Iâm not consuming tons of chemicals.

After that Iâll start my day and work straight through the morning until around 11am when itâs time for me to get some steps in and have a snack. I always do my best to get moving for at least 20 minutes, clear my mind and recalibrate for the rest of the day. Obviously, a snack and a fun drink at this time is a MUST, so I usually go for a serving of Greens and snack on a Chomps beef stick.
I literally always keep these two on me, itâs actually hilarious. I should do a whatâs in my purse one day because youâll literally just find stick packs, meat sticks, and lip gloss. Again, I canât explain how beneficial it is to prioritize protein in your diet when youâre trying to balance your hormones and feel your best, so having easy snacks I can just reach for and trust the ingredients of is so important to me. If you havenât tried them, youâre missing out and wonât be disappointed!
Once I finish up my work day itâs my favorite time of the dayâ dinner with Greg! Lately weâve just been so busy that we just donât have the time or energy to plan what weâre going to do for dinner so weâve been ordering groceries through Hungryroot. GuysâŠwhen I tell you this has been absolutely night and day for sticking to a hormone-friendly diet that actually tastes good and makes me feel my best. Iâm not even kidding, I canât recommend it enough.

The best part is that you can tailor the groceries they send you based on your diet needs, so I always opt for low sugar, high protein, dairy free, gluten free + gut friendly meals. Once I put all the information in, Hungryroot will send groceries & coinciding recipes straight to my door so I can make fresh, healthy, personalized meals without much work, planning, prep time, or grocery shopping.
Then itâs off to bed, featuring my bedtime routine we chatted about in my newsletter a few weeks back. I think the wind down is honestly one of the most important parts of my day and such an important tool if youâre working to reduce stress, lower cortisol levels, and balance hormonesâ so be sure to check that out for the full routine as well.
As always, you can find tons more info about exactly what health hacks youâre looking for on my podcast, Instagram, or in past newslettersâ you know I got the Powgirls with all the tips!
I hope you get some time to do what you love this weekend and make some changes that will benefit you & your health. Iâm rooting for you!!
