Butter Me Up
Feelin’ that berry bliss. Just got my delivery of @pearlbutter Pearl Butter adaptogenic coconut butters and can’t wait to play. It’s all the wonders of rich coconut butter in fun colors like this vivid blue from superfood spirulina.

Purple Soup, I Dig It
Starting to wonder, do I have a purple problem? Let’s reframe that – yes, I have a passion for the purple and I will not hide it.
Recently I’ve been in awe at the array of colors from spring produce – everything from golden beets to rainbow carrots and sunset fingerling potatoes. The colors are seriously gorgeous and I get a little thrill when I discover something new, like purple sweet potatoes and a recipe for Purple Soup that takes full advantage of all the purple glory!

Gloves Up!
Wham bam, thank you ma’am.
Thanks to @asweatlife for another bad*ss event with a barre/boxing mash-up led by @tristagreco and @cbels23. The event was part of a full day of empowering events in support of Equal Pay Day on April 10. The date symbolizes how far into the year women have to work to earn what men earned in the previous year. Women get paid on average $0.80 to every $1.00 that men are paid for a variety of reasons – choice of occupation, maternity leave, lack of negotiation skills/confidence, etc. It’s an important issue and one that is near and dear to my heart as a woman in business.

Bouldering Badass
When Monday looks like a mountain with a special entanglement of madness, take a deep breath. Foam floors are meant for falls and those falls mold us into our best selves.
I spent my Sunday afternoon conquering (indoor) mountains at @firstascentclimbing, an indoor bouldering gym in Chicago. My little urban adventure did include some falls, but in the end, I felt like a real life spider woman – super powers and all.
