👑 Don't wait for the perfect moment

What’s up, Hustlers! 

We don’t wait for the perfect moment—we create it. Action beats perfection every time.

If you’re waiting for the stars to align before you take the first step—don’t. Start messy. Start unsure. Start scared. Just start. Progress comes from movement, not hesitation.

Keep showing up. Keep building. Keep trusting your next step.

Lots of vegan protein 💪 One of the most frequent questions I get is: “How do you get enough protein as a vegan?” Let’s bust that myth—loud and clear. I get MORE than enough.

Protein is essential for energy, recovery, and staying strong—especially when you’re training hard and chasing big goals. Below are some of the best vegan protein sources. My personal favorite? Tofu all day. Crispy, pan-fried, or smothered in sauce, I’ll choose tofu every time.

Vegan Protein Sources (by serving):

• Seitan (3 oz): 19g

• Tempeh (3 oz): 17g

• Tofu (3 oz): 9g

• Chickpeas (1 cup): 12g

• Lentils (1 cup): 18g

• Edamame (1 cup): 18g

• Black beans (1 cup): 15g

• Soy milk (1 cup): 9g

• Pea milk (1 cup): 8g

• Quinoa (1 cup): 8g

• Hemp seeds (3 tbsp): 10g

• Nutritional yeast (2 tbsp): 5g

• Almonds (1 oz): 6g

• Peas (½ cup): 4g

• Sprouted grain bread (1 slice): 5g

• Spinach (1 cup): 9g

Plant-based protein is powerful, versatile, and anything but boring. Mix it up, get creative, and fuel your hustle with intention. 🔥

Tips to get running 🏃‍♀️ Warmer weather means more outdoor runs! Whether you’re lacing up for the first time or getting back into your groove, running season is on. The best part? You don’t need fancy gear or a perfect plan—you just need to start.

Here are my top tips for new runners (or anyone who needs a reset):

• Get the right shoes. Go to your local running store and get fitted for shoes that work for your feet. It’s a game-changer.

• Try the talk test. If you can sing a verse of your favorite song without totally gasping for air, you’re at the right pace. Don’t sprint out the gate.

• Start with minutes, not miles. Don’t stress the distance. Start with 15–20 minutes and build up. Once your body finds its rhythm, you’ll be surprised how far you can go.

• Follow the 10 Percent Rule. Don’t jump from 2 miles to 7 in a week. Increase your total mileage by no more than 10% weekly. Trust—progress comes from consistency.

• Listen to your body. There’s a difference between muscle fatigue and something that could lead to injury. Pay attention to how you feel, especially in the early days. Stop, stretch, and ease back in when needed. Hustle smart.

Running doesn’t have to be complicated. Just start where you are—and keep showing up.

 .WHAT I’M REFLECTING ON. 

An amazing trip to St. Regis Bahia Beach 🇵🇷 Our family trip to the St. Regis Bahia Beach was everything—sun, sand, and so many moments that fed the soul. As a proud Boricua, bringing my kids to Puerto Rico means the world. Watching them fall in love with the island? Unmatched.

Here’s what I’m still thinking about:

• Farm-to-table goodness. 🥬 We picked our own veggies at the Bahia Beach farm in the morning, then turned them into vegan pizzas with Chef Luis for dinner. Literally ate what we picked. How dope is that?!

• Animal time at the nursery. 🐐 Atlas loved the animal nursery and the pet rescue program—especially the kittens. He had us say goodbye to every single animal before we left. 🥹 

• Spa day with Athena. 💅 Her first-ever spa day at the beautiful Iridium Spa. Naturally, she got a different shade of pink on each nail.

• Fresh air and sunshine. ☀️ From building sandcastles with Atlas to oceanside workouts with Drew, the warmth, beauty, and peace of Bahia Beach was everything.

Thank you, St. Regis Bahia Beach, for helping us create these memories. We’ll be back!
