Meet Me!

Meet Me!

Hey babe! I'm Olivia; a twenty-something that's living in Dallas. My heart is focused on Jesus and my mind is focused on food. My blog is focused on both, with a little bit of this crazy life sprinkled in too! Welcome to my world!

Let’s Be Besties

‘Gram Worthy Stuff

  • I’ve always wanted to take him to Italy... this will have to do, for now 😏 Vegas, you hold some of my sweetest and best memories ❤️ Until next time ✌🏼
  • We look happy, but inside, we’re both experiencing a slow death from eating 5x our body weight in Brunch buffet. Happy V-Day from Vegas!
  • Okay, can I just say that I miss the selfie?! I mean, I love the profesh photos with their amazing focus and proper editing, but I think that I was more content with social media when I just grabbed my phone, snapped my face, and said what I was thinking. I’m sure there’s a balance of that somewhere, putting it on my to-do list to find it. . Heading home to scoop up the birthday boy, and then jumping on the next flight to #LAS ✈️ . Since I’ll be in 3 different climates, my luggage is stuffed to the brim (literally .5 pounds under the weight limit) and I sent a bunch of shoes with my hubby in his bag 😂😂 Also on my to-do list; quit being an over-packer. Oh well, today, this is who I am! And I’ve found that learning to accept it instead of fight it actually makes it easier to grow and change for the better! Happy Tuesday, loves! ♥️
  • I hope your Monday is filled with a huge cup of coffee and everything wonderful! . I’m spending the day tying up all the loose ends for the next 2 weeks of #faithfullmornings content, then packing my bags and heading to Vegas with my adorable dad for the rest of the week/weekend! ✈️🃏🥂 . Anyone else a last minute packer? I’m trying to cram it all into one bag! Can you share any and all packing tips below?! The struggle is SO REAL 🧳
  • I’m one to get hung up on my mistakes and bad decisions. I have a hard time giving myself grace and forgiving myself for the things I’ve screwed up in the past. I wish away my poor decisions and their consequences all the time. I struggle with who i could have been if I hadn’t [fill in the blank]. . But I’m slowly learning that to wish those things away means wishing away my entire life, not just the “bad parts.” I can’t separate the good and the bad, I can’t love one without appreciating the other. Every step I’ve taken has lead me right here, to the present. To wish away parts of my life is to believe that God doesn’t have a master plan for me. . I could have certainly done somethings differently, but every day we’re being transformed into who we were made to be, and those mistakes, failures, and setbacks are lessons on our way there. We might hate them, but without them, we’d never become better. Even after all these years of being a Christian, I’ve struggled to understand what grace really means. I think I know now; it’s the ability to look at life as a whole, the good and bad parts, with gratitude. ♥️
  • Everything you see pictured in this photo has been a source of discomfort, shame, and anxiety for most of my life. In the good old days, I ate whatever I wanted and worked it off during the hours I spent at cheer/gymnastics. I kept eating that way even when I no longer had that intense exercise in my life. Enter: the negative impacts of fast food + the sloth life. I spent years jumping on board with every quick fix, diet trend, and “easy” exercise I came across, only to give up days or weeks later. . About 5 years ago, I finally found something that worked for me. It wasn’t easy, no magic pill, nothing quick - but it did make sense, which was half the battle. What I found was that all the marketing I’d fallen for in the past was created by companies that were preying on the uneducated - which is most of us! There aren’t very many people who understand the concept of eating real, healthy foods, doing exercise that’s efficient and full body, and practicing balance. I never did, and I fell into every single trap. . But all of that changed when I started following a plan that not only helped me see results, but it also EDUCATED me. I didn’t just have to blindly follow instructions, I now had autonomy to make my own choices because of the knowledge I gained. And sure, I’ve stumbled along the way - I’m human. Despite all the evidence, it took me awhile to learn that 😏 But I’ve seen lasting results, achieved success in the goals I’ve set, and integrated healthy living permanently into my lifestyle. It worked me... I’ve waited years to say that. . If you need me help on your own healthy lifestyle, I’d love to connect with you. I offer a private support group for accountability and the tools you need to take this journey into your own hands. I don’t want to sell you product, I want to help you LEARN. I love my at home workouts, my superfoods shake, and that amazing pre-workout drink I always have with me. But if that all disappeared tomorrow, I can confidently say that I could continue living a healthy life and making healthy choices. That’s what I want for you too. That’s where true freedom lies. If you want details, let me know below and I’ll connect with you! ❤️
  • Tomorrow’s the day - announcing my new accountability group! I’ve taken some time away from running groups to adjust my focus on why this healthy living thing is important to me, and the role that I play in helping others in their own journey. Truthfully, I had to make sure that I was living an example of a healthy life before I could work with anyone else. And I NEEDED to get my priorities in order - so many things were clouding my ability to do the right thing when it came to business. . But I’m finally ready - I think I’m in a clear headspace; of course I’ll always keep working on my mindset and reevaluating where I’m at. But I want to get back to a place where I’m really sharing this journey with other ladies that want to live their healthiest, happiest lives. But things are going to be really different. So if you’ve ever been in my groups and want to come back, I’d love to have you! And if you’re new, there’s tons of ladies that are doing this healthy lifestyle thing together - and you’re invited! Stay tuned, tomorrow = all the deets. 💋
  • Can I please tell you guys the truth about something? Over the last months (maybe longer?) I’ve really struggled with the significance that social media holds in my life. It consumes a lot of my thoughts and energy. . So many times, I want to step away from it completely, but as someone who’s built a business based around sharing and connecting, it’s not practical. Plus, I love the benefits of getting to build amazing relationships with people across the globe. . I know that my identity shouldn’t be tied to my Instagram or the numbers of likes my photos get. I know that it sounds crazy to think that a platform with a bunch of photos has any control over my life. But I also know how many people struggle with their value, worth, purpose, and place because of it. . I continually find myself thinking “who would I be if social media wasn’t a thing?” Or “am I doing this for me, or for likes?” It’s a weird place to be. . So basically, I just want you to know that if social media exhausts you, makes you feel “less than”, leads you to compare yourself, and overwhelms you - you’re not alone. I don’t have any tips or advice, I just want you to know that I feel it too. And I just want to encourage you to remember that you were special before the world could see you. Who you are might be different than the images that fill your feed, but not any less valuable. ♥️
