All About the Sober Curious Movement & Dating

sober curious movement

I remember first hearing about the sober curious movement about a year ago on a podcast. I was intrigued by the movement but I was unsure if it was something I wanted to try, or even if I could do it. This isn’t to say I drink a lot or all the time, but I definitely enjoy wine and a good cocktail. Just have a look at my logo and you’ll see a martini glass. Truly, I’m all about balance and I still believe that drinking can be part of a healthy lifestyle. But when I found myself single for the first time in 14 years, I noticed how much I relied on drinking to make myself feel comfortable. And I wanted to explore that, so here we are…

I’m reviewing every single foundation and concealer that I’ve personally purchased.

What Does Cheating Feel Like: My Breakup Story

December 9, 2019 By jaclyn 11 Comments

Yum

The truth is breakups are tough, no matter what. Sometimes, they can be a lot more painful than others. Cheating makes them so much more complicated, hurtful and raw. I chose to finally share my story (one year later) because I needed to give myself time to gather my thoughts. I didn’t want to write this post in anger. It is not my intention to share personal details for financial gain or validation. But after sharing that I was going through a breakup in January 2019 (without any details), and being vulnerable about that, I received so many messages from people. Even months after it, I had people reaching out to me asking for advice getting over a breakup as they were going through one. So, I have chosen to share more and I remain committed to bringing awareness to subjects that usually don’t get talked about. For me, cheating was one of those topics. What does cheating feel like exactly? Read on to find out…

The Best Natural Dry Shampoo & How to Stretch Your Hair Washing Days

September 13, 2019 By jaclyn 1 Comment

best natural dry shampoo

For as long as I can remember, I’ve had “interesting hair.” When I was younger, I had this wavy, thickkkk, uncontrollable hair. And in elementary school I would always wear my hair up in a bun because I didn’t know how to style it and neither did my mom. She had no idea how to control it. Then one day, a kid asked me why I always wore it in a bun. I didn’t have an answer, I was incredibly shy and didn’t want any attention on me. So I decided the next day that I would wear my hair down. My mom asked me, “are you sure?” and I said yes. That was the last time I wore it down for a while haha. I’ve since learned how to manage my hair and because I have so much of it, I like to stretch my hair washing days as much as possible. So I rely on dry shampoo A LOT. I wanted to share the best natural dry shampoo and products with you, so here we go.

Self Care After a Breakup: Five Things I Learned

self care after a breakup

I can safely say (and I am sure almost anyone would agree) breakups SUCK! Recently, in November/December 2018 I went through my first major heartbreak and it nearly broke me. In fact, for a time, it did break me. I couldn’t focus on anything, had zero appetite, couldn’t sleep and cried more than I ever thought possible. When I was going through it, I didn’t think I’d ever get past it. It felt like the hurt, anger, disappointment and sadness would stay with me forever. In the months that followed the breakup, I managed to work on a few things that really helped me feel stronger than I had ever felt before. Self care after a breakup is possible and today I am sharing five ways I learned how to practice self-care.

CHIA PUDDING, THREE WAYS: Looking for the quickest CHIA PUDDING, THREE WAYS: Looking for the quickest breakfast? For me it has to be chia pudding 💯. I’ve been enjoying these for years now. And I’ve learned a thing or two about consistency and flavour when it comes to these guys. So I’m sharing three different chia pudding recipes on the blog! One of them is this mango-matcha flavour for when you need a little pick-me-up with your breakfast. I’ve been on a major mango 🥭 kick lately and I’ll def be making this version again very soon. Here’s what you’ll need to make them!
- chia seeds
- milk (canned coconut milk is 👌🏻)
- matcha powder @soarorganics
- mango
- coconut yogurt @maison_riviera
- shredded coconut (for topping)

So which one would you choose first? Mango matcha, vanilla raspberry or chocolate-almond-banana? Decisions, decisions 🤔. Full recipe is here - https://holisticfoodie.com/vegan-chia-pudding/

TAHINI CHOCOLATE LAYERED SMOOTHIE: Been obsessing TAHINI CHOCOLATE LAYERED SMOOTHIE: Been obsessing over this vanilla-tahini-salted chocolate layered smoothie lately and I can’t stop making it. I love loading them up with veggies that don’t alter the colour or taste too much, one of my faves is frozen romaine 🥬. Plus romaine is so underrated IMO, it’s an amazing food for skin health too with lots of vitamix A, K and C and folate. Here’s how to make this layered vanilla-tahini-salted chocolate smoothie (save this for later!):
.
Ingredients:
3/4 frozen banana
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup vanilla yogurt (I like @maison_riviera dairy free coconut yogurt)
2 tbsp @parallel_brothers tahini
1/3 cup frozen zucchini (sliced)
1 1/2 tbsp chia seeds (or hemp seeds)
Large handful frozen romaine
Scoop of vanilla collagen or protein powder (I love @botanicahealth plant based vanilla)
1/4 cup frozen cauliflower (optional)
2 @ndmedjooldates (pitted)
1 1/2 tbsp @rodellevanilla cocoa powder
Directions:
Add all ingredients except the dates and cocoa powder into a blender and blend on high until smooth and creamy. Add more water if needed, but I like it thickkkk.
Pour half of the vanilla layer into two glasses.
Add the date and cocoa powder to the remaining smoothie mix and blend until smooth, add additional water if needed.
Pour this chocolate layer on top and swirl. Eat with a spoon or straw and top with chia seeds. Enjoy!

It’s been a week over here and I’m looking for It’s been a week over here and I’m looking forward to letting my hair down and maybe making one of these this weekend (or you know 3?! 🙃). I’ve been in a weird funk for most of the week, feeling a bit all over the place, caught in an endless comparison game and unsure of everything I create. And it would be easy to hide, stay off Instagram and act like everything is ok, but I’m a big believer in showing up authentically and imperfectly. Because the truth is, there’s nothing wrong with these thoughts and feelings. But how we choose to show up for ourselves and how we let people see us when we feel vulnerable, messy or uncomfortable is important. After all, we’re all navigating this thing called life, and it can be messy, uncomfortable and hard. But if we only show up to show the beautiful and hyper curated stuff, that endless cycle of not feeling like we’re good enough just continues.

Ok I’m calling it a day very soon and gonna shake it off (and shake up a martini 🍸 with all the olives, obvi 🫒)

Quick dinner idea! Seared scallops + brown butter Quick dinner idea! Seared scallops + brown butter + crispy pancetta + crispy capers 🤤. I know, I know, scallops are kinda fancy and intimidating but they’re actually fairly easy to cook. Some tips for preparing scallops, pat them dry VERY well with paper towel. Heat a cast iron pan over medium-high heat and add some oil (evoo works the best). Once the skillet is hot, sear those scallops for about 2 minutes (depending on size) and then flip and sear the other side. When they’re almost done cooking, add some butter or ghee to the skillet right at the end and spoon it all over the scallops👌🏻. By doing this, you’ll get a nice browned crust which is exactly what you want in a scallop.
.
Last tip - if you can get scallops from Costco (in the freezer section) that will be the best price (that I’ve found) and they taste 💯. The full recipe for these will be over on @rily.good so be sure to check them out over there!
