šŸ‘‘ Failure is feedback

Plus: How to prioritize self-love

What’s up, Hustlers! 

What if failure is the key to your next level?

Setbacks happen—plans don’t always go as expected, but failure isn’t the end—it’s feedback. Who you are is defined by how you get back up. Failure is an invitation to interrogate limiting beliefs and rewrite the narrative.

Time to flip the script—how are you turning that setback into a setup?

Self-Love šŸ’— Let’s get one thing straight—self-love is not selfish. Before we pour into relationships with others, we have to make sure we’re pouring into ourselves. I committed to self-love long before I met my husband (I have the tattoo to prove it). It’s the foundation for every relationship we’ll ever have. If the conversation between our ears isn’t strong, kind, and empowering, how can we expect to show up fully for the people in our lives?

If you’re struggling to build that self-love muscle or just need a reset, here are a few ways to guide yourself back to a healthy mindset:

  • šŸ’– Hype yourself up daily. Speak to yourself like you would a friend. Try mirror pep talks—look yourself in the eye and say: You are strong, you are capable, and you deserve every good thing coming your way.

  • šŸ“– Journal your greatest hits. Write down a recent moment where you crushed it. Maybe it was finishing a tough workout, setting a boundary, or showing up for yourself when it wasn’t easy. Reflecting on these wins rewires the narrative in your mind.

  • ✨ Romanticize your life. Take yourself on a solo date, dress up just because, or savor that morning coffee like it’s a five-star experience. Self-love is a practice, not a destination—so celebrate yourself along the way.

Happy Valentine’s Day, hustlers. Remember—you are your own greatest love story. šŸ’•

Hot chocolate... but make it hydrating ā˜•ļø As temps drop, hydration gets trickier. You’re still losing water even when you’re not sweating, and indoor heating dries you out without you even noticing.

Enter LMNT’s chocolate electrolytes. I’m OBSESSED. Their Chocolate Medley flavors (Chocolate Mint, Chocolate Chai, and Chocolate Raspberry) taste like the rich, cozy hot cocoa I grew up drinking—no joke. After we put the kids to bed, Drew and I split a packet, mix it into hot water, and sometimes throw in a few vegan marshmallows before finally sinking into the couch. A little salty, a little sweet, and the perfect way to wind down while keeping hydration in check.

Question: Do you ever freeze your tofu?

- Barbara

Answer: Yes! Freezing tofu is a game-changer. It helps get rid of excess moisture, making it crisp up better when cooked. It also gives it a firmer, meatier texture that soaks up marinades like a sponge—so every bite is packed with flavor. Plus, it’s an easy way to keep tofu stocked and ready for quick, protein-packed meals.

Bon AppĆ©tit even breaks down the science behind it—freezing changes the structure of tofu, creating tiny pockets that enhance its chew and absorbency.
