The feedback really does speak for itself. 🎉 As one client said, “Arbonne skincare is superior” and I have to agree. It’s been the biggest surprise to me (because I thought I was happy with my skin) but I had no idea how good it could get. Fewer products + better results.

I didn’t really even notice how much my skin une

I didn’t really even notice how much my skin unevenness and discoloration changed until I looked back at the first photo (from 2022 - wearing tinted moisturizer) to today (wearing nothing on my skin except moisturizer.) My skin tone and texture around the jaw line is SO different. All my life I just assumed that was “just how my skin was” but consistently using new-to-me clean and high performing skincare totally changed the game for me - and that’s coming from someone who would have said I was happy with my skin here.

A couple years older and happier than I’ve ever been in my skin? It’s totally possible.

This is your permission slip to stop wearing jeans

This is your permission slip to stop wearing jeans just because they are “flattering” and pick cuts that are comfortable and work for the life you want to live. Right now, for me it’s all about the wide leg jeans + putting a belt on it. It feels polished without sacrificing comfort and I’m here for it. #momlife #styleinyour30s #momstyle #realmomstyle #momof4

Things I don’t do as a mom of girls as someone w

Things I don’t do as a mom of girls as someone who used to have disordered eating and an unhealthy relationship with my body:
.
.
1. Participate in “before and after” culture. I know it’s marketing gold. I know before and afters sell product but I refuse to participate. IMO, before and afters send the message that before was “bad” and after is “good” to little eyes that are watching and I think it does more harm than good.
.
.
2. Talk about my body. Hard and fast rule since my girls were bitty. While I’m not immune to human thoughts of negativity about my body, I have never voiced anything negative about my body in front of my girls unless it’s commenting on a physical ability such as being strong enough to carry them, or able to run many miles, etc.
.
.
3. Talk about food as good or bad. Food is fuel. Some foods provide more/better fuel than others. But we don’t talk in our home about food being “bad” or “off limits” etc. I don’t speak in absolutes about food I eat, either. We choose to focus on how a food makes us feel, or how much energy it gives us, etc.
.
.
4. Talk about diets, being skinny, losing weight, etc. I know I can’t shelter them from the world’s messages but I can do my part at home to paint a positive picture of health and wellness that models the values I hope they carry with them as they get older.

2024. It was almost hard to go back to the beginning of this year and pull photos because there was such layered complexity to this year. It held a LOT of unseen hard and unspeakable joy all rolled into one. As I look back on this year it was one of the hardest and best and worst and most complex and most stretching and most miraculous years of my life. God did good work this year and I’m humbled to stand where I am welcoming a new year.
.
.
The smiles you see here are hard fought and much deserved and deeper because of life lived and lessons learned.
.
.
Sending love to each of you. I’m SO thankful to be able to do this good, hard, beautiful journey called life with this community. You have been sucy a joy and encouragement to my heart time and time again and for that I’m so very grateful. ❤️❤️

Hi, friends. There are a lot of new faces around here and I wanted to take a minute and re-introduce myself for the new followers so you know a bit more about what you’re getting 🥰
.

I’m Madison. Wife to Joe and mom to four. Many years ago I started a food blog and Instagram account. I was a recipe developer and magazine editor. Many of you OG’s started to follow along when I started blogging about our fertility journey. We have four babies in heaven and our fertility journey sparked my interested in clean/low-tox living long before it was cool. 😉
.
.
I’m also a #heartmom to the most amazing five year old - Truett - who had life-saving surgery as an infant for an undiagnosed #coarctationoftheaorta. We are so thankful he is alive and thriving.he keeps us on our toes on the daily. 🤣
.
.
We are slowly fixing up a 1970’s home on two acres. It’s a gem of a house but also quite a big undertaking and you will frequently see us mid-project. 😃
.
.
I love running, fitness and health and helping women look and feel their best. I’m SO thankful to have what I think is one of the best online communities in this corner of the internet and I’m so thankful you’re here! 🥰

It was a Christmas where we seriously underestimat

It was a Christmas where we seriously underestimated the number of batteries we needed and spent most of the day assembling toys and learning how to use new gifts and running ourselves ragged helping everyone. We ate nearly 20 cinnamon rolls over the course of the day 🤣😳 and dad officially took over the role of chief cinnamon roll maker.
.
.
God did some mighty wonderful things in the last year and our family is blessed beyond measure for the gift of one another. Something I don’t take for granted.
.
.
As Truett said to me today, “God is the greatest gift of all!” He really, is, friends. Praise Him from whom all blessings flow and Merry Christmas!

Idk why but felt that someone else might also need

Idk why but felt that someone else might also need a reminder that there are real people, living in real houses, with real budgets, and lots of kids and limited time to do all their projects. That, as my favorite phase says, “Home takes time.” And, in reality, even those who love a clean and tidy home 🙋🏼‍♀️ still live daily in houses that have evidence of real life.

Felt like a good audio to go with a reel wearing ages old skinny jeans doesn’t it? But honestly, I pulled out years-old skinny jeans and thought “how silly I’ve quit wearing them because the internet told me to stop wearing them.” they are truly some of the most comfortable jeans I own, and go with so many of the (also old) sweaters I own. Old jeans. Even older Everlane sweater. Jacket from the back of my closet. Years old Rothy’s. It feels good to wear what you already own doesn’t it?
