The further along you want to go, the more you will need the support, encouragement, and wisdom of others—especially those who have previously walked in the direction you…
Five Tips For Finding Personal Growth Content {FTT}
I’m always studying one thing or another. Not only for expanding my knowledge base, but also to make connections between ideas that I haven’t had before.

🥜 KacisFridayFind23 — Bia Bars!

Kaci’s Friday Find — Now Foods Stevia drops!

Kaci’s Friday Find — Cauliflower Pretzels by From the Ground Up Snacks
Cauliflower Pretzels?! Yup! I found these Whole Foods and had to give them a try! They are super macro-friendly and taste like pretzels! My hubby even said he thought they tasted better than pretzels. He was eating some of the “real” kind at the time he tried them, so that is a pretty…
