How many of us are strapped for time and order delivery for dinner instead of making our own meals? Or what about when you're exhausted after a long day of work and end up eating chips and salsa for dinner? I'm guilty on both fronts lol! Healthy meals don't have to be difficult or take a long time to prepare.

What the heck is a wellness retreat? This is a question we're often asked at Fierce Clarity because it's incredibly uncommon for people to take a break from the busy, digital world that we inhabit.

If you've been living under a rock, perhaps you've missed the new documentary on Netflix entitled "What The Health". This food/healthy living documentary sheds light on the link between food, disease, and industrial farming. "What The Health" does a great job of shocking the system.

I made it!! I cannot believe I made it 30 days on this meal program with minimal cheats (I'll be honest I had a few cocktails lol). Week 4 of the #Whole30 was about completion, triumph, and re-integration. I feel and look great! I have more energy and am very clear and in tune with my body. During Week 4 I

I'm going to be completely honest here. I'm over it!! I would have quit by now if my boyfriend wasn't going so strong.
