#2 A Day at Home: Spring Refresh
5 Essentials to Transform Your Spring Season
My favorite thing about spring is the feeling of hopeful anticipation. 🌷 There’s something magical about appreciating a sunny day after months of gray skies, spotting my tulip bulbs starting to peek out from the ground, and feeling that renewed energy to get back on track. Spring always feels like a fresh start—a chance to reconnect with myself, set new goals, and embrace the beauty of growth all around me.
Top 5 Spring Must-Haves
This week, I’m sharing my Top 5 Spring Must-Haves that are helping me make the most of this season. From fitness to self-care to plant parenting, these are my go-to essentials for embracing spring with purpose and joy.
Subtle Pop of Color: Burt’s Bees Tinted Lip Balm
Spring is that weird in-between season where the air is still dry, allergies kick in, and my lips feel constantly dehydrated. But this time of year I find myself craving a touch of color. Burt’s Bees Tinted Lip Balm is my absolute go-to!I love all the shades, but Hibiscus is my favorite for spring. It’s fresh, flattering, and I always get compliments when I wear it. Plus, the price is hard to beat! Perfect addition to an Easter or May Day basket in your near future 👀
Snack Without the Guilt: Protein Cosmic Brownie Bites
This Spring I’m hitting reset on my fitness goals and participating in a strict fitness challenge this spring to prioritize my health, establish a routine, and feel my best ahead of my wedding. Which brings me to my latest guilt-free obsession, Protein-packed Prime Bite Brownies—which are basically a better Cosmic Brownie. Whether you grab one at The Strength Shop or order them on Amazon, they’re a delicious hack for staying on track while indulging in something that feels like a treat. Trust me, they’re worth the hype!Drybar Southern Belle Blowout Mousse
Windy spring days can be brutal on my thin and flat hair, but Drybar’s Southern Belle mousse gives me volume and texture that lasts all day. The scent alone is worth it (seriously, it smells incredible), but the added lift and bounce make it a must-have for any appointment or outing.Plant Prep: Indoor Plant Food
Spring isn’t just for outdoor blooms—it’s also time to give your houseplants some extra love! I’ve been using Easy Peasy’s Indoor plant food and Fiddle Leaf Fig Food for years to help prep my indoor plants plants for their peak growing season.Brooks Ghost Series Tennis Shoes
Whether I’m running, walking, lifting weights, or tackling house projects and yard work, Brooks Ghosts are hands-down the BEST tennis shoes I’ve ever owned. They’re insanely comfortable and supportive—there’s nothing like slipping into a fresh pair to kick off the season!
Must Read, Watch, Listen
📚 READ: The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins
I’m making my way through The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins—and let me tell you, it’s been life-changing. I decided to actually read the physical book instead of listening to the audiobook, and while it’s taking me a little longer to digest, it’s been worth it. If you’re ready to stop wasting energy on things you can’t control (aren’t we all?) this book is a must-read!📺 WATCH: The Floor
If you need a lighthearted palate cleanser, let me introduce you to The Floor. It’s a silly game show I stumbled upon after the new season premiered post-Super Bowl. The “trivia battles” are fun to follow along with at home and you don’t need to be a genius for! It’s a low-stakes show that delivers! What would your category be? I’d like to try my hand at “Famous Paintings” or maybe “Adobe Tools” 🤪 Stream on Hulu or watch live on ABC Wednesdays at 9/8c.🎧 LISTEN: "Messy" by Lola Young
Lola Young’s “Messy” has been my song on repeat lately. It’s packed with energy—the kind of track that makes you want to belt out every lyric. I’ve also been loving the remixes and mashups that have popped up (shoutout to BYNX my fave DJ!) This song led me down a rabbit hole of Lola Young’s music, and her album This Wasn’t Meant for You Anyway… it’s a vibe! Listen on Spotify or Amazon Music.
Spring is all about fresh starts, new routines, and finding joy in the little things that brighten our days. Whether it’s a pop of color, a guilt-free snack, or a playlist that gets you moving, these must-haves are helping me embrace the season with purpose and energy. 🌸
