Your Sun-Soaked Success Cheatsheet ☀️

Last Friday, I attempted the holy trinity of “fun summer mom” feats:

Skate park at 1 PM—helmet drama, knee-pad negotiations, and one rogue scooter ramp-launch that shaved five years off my life.

Library by 2PM—where my daughter reenacted parkour between the picture-book stacks while I whispered “inside voices” on repeat.

Bahama Buck's victory lap—because rainbow-sprinkle shaved ice = instant cease-fire.

By 3 PM I'd racked up 10,000 steps, 47 “Mom, watch this!” alerts, and exactly zero minutes for myself…yet I still showed up for my body with a quick dumbbell circuit after bedtime.

Was it flawless? Nope.

Worth it? Every sticky-sweet second.

Because progress doesn't wait for quiet mornings—it squeezes into real-life chaos, right alongside skate-park dust and melted strawberry syrup.

Your Sun-Soaked Success Cheatsheet ☀️🌴

Keeping you strong and soaking up every summer memory:

Protein Popsicles – Blend Greek yogurt, berries, & vanilla protein powder. Freeze. Patriotic treat with 15 g protein. I love using Costco Greek yogurt and these protein powders: PROMIX Vanilla (buy it HERE), PRIME, also dairy free (buy it HERE), and LEVELS (buy it HERE).

Hydration Hack – Tuck electrolyte packets into your purse or carry-on. TSA-proof, bloat-proof, kid-meltdown-proof. RE-LYTE is my favorite! Buy it HERE.

Move-While-They-Skate – Ten body-weight squats or walking lunges every time your kid yells “Watch this!” (You'll hit 100 before you know it.)

Smart BBQ Swaps – Fill ¾ of your plate with grilled protein & veggies before approaching the chip bowl. Satisfaction first, cravings later.

Night-Cap Routine – Two minutes of 4-7-8 breathing after lights-out calms cortisol so tomorrow's you aren’t running on iced-latte fumes.

Tiny pivots ➜ massive momentum. No skate-park wipeouts required.
