How My Family Saves Money On Our Grocery Bill

May 9, 2018 · In: HEALTH

This Post is in Partnership with Thrive Market One thing that makes our house run smoothly is keeping the pantries stocked with items from food to toiletries. Its important to me to have the highest quality ingredients at the ready. Shopping for all our favorite items in one place really helps to cut down on shopping trips and keeps us prepared for things like cookie baking. We also love getting the best prices and knowing that all the items are non GMO.

Many of you asked for a list of some of our favorite products at Thrive Market and here  are some of them and each one is linked:

Pacific Foods Organic Unsweetened Almond Milk
Late July Organic Mini Peanut Butter Sandwiches
Late July Organic Mini Cheese Sandwiches

I have been hearing about Thrive Market for years and so happy we decided to try it out! Recently I have been working to streamline our grocery shopping and this online store makes it easy. We tried out our first order with some of our favorite on-the-go kid snacks we know and love.

Thrive Market offers organic foods, nontoxic home and personal care products for 25-50% off what you would normally pay. You can shop from the app or your computer and even search by special diet like, “Paleo,” “Vegan” or “Gluten Free” and it comes right to your door. Thrive Market is on a mission to make healthy living easy and affordable for everyone.

With your membership you have

-Access to 4,000+ organic and non-GMO products. Food, snacks, vitamins, supplements, personal care products, eco-friendly cleaning supplies, safe and nontoxic beauty products, kitchen staples, homegoods, organic baby food, kids products and much, much more and it’s all shipped straight to your door.  

-25-50% savings on every purchase

-Free shipping on every order over $49!

-An opportunity to make a difference: For every membership purchased, Thrive Market gives a free membership to a low-income family to help make healthy living easy and affordable for everyone.

-Exclusive access to special deals, new product launches, weekly free gifts, blogs, video recipes, and more!

–NEW Thrive Market now offers Fresh Meat and Seafood!  These are the highest quality meats at the most affordable prices.  Their beef is 100% grass-fed, free range and antibiotic free. Their chicken is certified free range and organic from small family farms. Their seafood has earned The Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch program’s stamp of approval, which states that our business is choosing seafood that’s fished or farmed in ways that support a healthy ocean!  

What Makes Thrive Market Stand Out

  1. More than 70% of the Thrive Market catalog CANNOT be found on Amazon!  
  2. Largest retailer in the country that sells exclusively non-gmo groceries
  3. All packaging, boxes, and inserts are made from recycled paper and are recyclable. Thrive Market is 100% carbon-neutral and certified through carbonfund.org. Our certification covers national shipping, packaging materials, warehouse utilities, and even the commutes of our team.

Happy Mother’s Day! I hope you had a lovely day, Happy Mother’s Day! I hope you had a lovely day, my friends. Mothers are our foundation. Motherhood has given me the greatest gifts I could ever ask for. Thank you to all the moms out there!
🚩Save this for those overwhelming days when you 🚩Save this for those overwhelming days when you need a reset ↓

💫 These 3 micro habits made a real difference for me.

1. ❤️ ⚡️I have been practicing @heartmath ’s heart coherence exercise. A 90 second way to connect to your heart and get out of your head. Put your hand on your heart I like to close my eyes and start breathing into my heart space.  slow down your breath. Start to think of something or someone that you feel great gratitude for and focus on that feeling as you breathe into your heart space. Once I’m connected to that feeling of gratitude, I ask God to guide me in whatever area I’ve been overthinking. I get a really clear and simple answer and focus on that throughout the day.
Great technique I learned about through @the_human_design_coach 

It’s more about how to be and not all about what to do. 

2. ☀️I have loads of energy but only when I’m doing things that I’m excited about and that can include chores! I just have to spin it so it’s fun for me.

3. 🌖 Letting my menstrual cycle guide how I organize my energy through the month has been a huge permission slip and guiding light for when I need to rest, and when I am super creative or clearheaded for organizing.

I tried it.
It stressed me out. 🤣
Then I realized: I don’t need to “balance it all” daily.

I can store up joy and energy like a camel.🥰

Go big one day, go birth control robe or the park for the rest.

It’s an energy strategy.

That’s camel mom energy. 🐫
Anyone else relate?

My best friend from college (and the Navy) and I went to see Diana Krall downtown this week and it was a dream come true. I don’t go out too often but I enjoy this camel life.

Why I Stopped Pushing Through—and Started Syncing With My Cycle.
My energy changed a lot after 40.

I started noticing how often I was frustrated for being “off”—when really, my body was just in a different phase of its natural rhythm.

✨ When I gave myself permission to follow it instead of fight it, everything shifted.
Not just my productivity, but my peace.

Here’s what that looks like for me as a creative mom who still has big goals—but honors her energy instead of ignoring it:

🌑 Menstrual (Days 1–5)
→ Rest. Reflect. Retreat.
What I allow: Canceling the extras, cuddles, quiet meals, journaling, soft podcasts, total permission to be still.

🌱 Follicular (Days 6–13)
→ Fresh starts. Planning. Creativity.
What I lean into: New ideas, organizing, writing, dreaming up what’s next.

🌕 Ovulatory (Days 14–17)
→ Connection. Communication. Confidence.
What I schedule: Friend dates, family outings, big conversations, batch errands, showing up.

🍂 Luteal (Days 18–28)
→ Discernment. Deep work. Cozy nesting.
What I focus on: Prepping, cleaning, saying “no,” creating comfort, finishing strong before I rest.

—
Even in perimenopause or menopause, your energy has rhythm.
It’s not all in your head. It’s in your body—and it’s wise.
✨ You don’t need to be perfect. Just aware.
—
📌 Save this for when you want to check in with your body.

👇
Do you already notice these shifts in your month? Has this helped you trust yourself more?

🏃‍♀️ I was on such a fast track: Right ou 🏃‍♀️ I was on such a fast track:
Right out of college, I was headed to Naval flight school — and then just as quickly, I was kicked out for being too short to fly.

The very next day, I was driving from Pensacola to Newport, Rhode Island to learn how to drive ships and run engineering departments.

My whole life, I associated speed with ambition.
The faster I moved, the more successful I thought I was becoming.

But motherhood changed me.
It introduced me to a different kind of ambition — a quieter kind.
A kind of ambition that’s measured in presence, not promotions.

In how well I manage my energy, not how many tasks I check off-(I relearn this so many times and each time I get back on track quicker- 👋 Generators).

In the kind of role model I am becoming — not just what I am achieving.

Slowing down and living in my energy didn’t erase my ambition.
It refined it.

When I honor my energy,
there is still room for my personal dreams too.

Your kids won’t be little forever.
The woman you’re becoming will be with you for a lifetime.

Slowing down isn’t falling behind — it’s finally running your own race.

❤️ This if you’re learning how to live in tune with your energy — and still hold space for your dreams.

Comment TYPE and I’ll show you your energy type.
