Trump & Co.: go take a walk

Unless you have been living under a rock these past few days, you probably know that Donald Trump has attracted a lot of controversy (and rightly so!) for vile things he has said about women. But in case you missed it, the object of the media frenzy is aΒ video from 2005 that was shared by…

Three resources to start thinking critically about your lifestyle choices

I am currentlyΒ being quite intentional about the information I consume: no more aimless scrolling down my Facebook or Twitter feeds waiting for my time to be clickbaited away. Instead I am doing things like listening to podcasts on aΒ daily basisΒ and reading at least a chapter a day. I choose to listen toΒ podcasts aboutΒ personal development, entrepreneurship…

Potential for citizen science initiatives in Rio de Janeiro

Welcome to my blog! I am not yet sure which direction it will head in, but this is what has been on my mind recently. Earlier this month I attended a one-day conference about “Enthusiasm for Citizen Science:Β Taking stock of motivations, costs and benefits” at the University of Reading. First of all, I would like…

I'm thirty this week! A look back on my twenties

I’m turning 30 this week! A look back on my twenties

I turned 27 a couple days ago. Between the realisation of getting older and often unmet expectations, birthdays can be quite bittersweet. That is why I’m putting a positive spin on this new chapter with a birthday bucket list! Read on for the 27 things I am going to do while I’m 27! I’ll update the list as I go along. Please share what you would add to your bucket list in the comments section!

I’m 27! So here’s my birthday bucket list

✨ New month, new you! ✨ Well kind of. πŸ˜… I ✨ New month, new you! ✨

Well kind of. πŸ˜…

I've recently taken a leap of faith and invested in online courses by @bossbabe.inc and @income.school. 😬

Even though the courses are great, what I ultimately did was invest in myself and truly commit to my goals. πŸ’ͺ

One of the courses breaks their process into months, making May my month 1... πŸ—“οΈ

But enough about me and the courses I'm on! The moral of this short story is that no matter where you're at now, this can be your month 1! ✨

What will you make of it? 😊

It's a clichΓ© because it's true: time really does fly by! Our baby boy is climbing all over the place and quickly turning into a toddler. πŸ₯°

And I'm hoping he doesn't grow out of giving me kisses any time soon! 🀞

Do you get your Daily Dozen? 😊 . Before I revea Do you get your Daily Dozen? 😊

Before I reveal the 5 missing elements in the Daily Dozen, I'd like to first acknowledge that this isn't my invention! The Daily Dozen are the twelve elements identified by Dr Greger in his research that are proven to increase health and longevity. ✨

You can find his evidence-based nutrition work at @nutrition_facts_org. πŸ“š

But back to the Daily Dozen list... Here are the 5 missing elements:
🌰 Nuts and seeds
🌢️ Herbs and spices
🍚 Whole grains
🍡 Beverages
πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ Exercise

How many of the 12 do you think you get a day? 😊

If it feels a bit overwhelming, I've written a blog post breaking down how you can incorporate the Daily Dozen into your everyday. You can find it at jessicagoodenough.com under Vegan food. πŸ’–
