Craving something sweet in the afternoon? This is the perfect mix to satisfy your sweet tooth. Greek yogurt Dutch cocoa powder (any cocoa powder is fine) Maple syrup I added crushed pecans because I wanted a crunch, adding any nut you prefer is fine Swirled in some peanut butter because, is there any better combination than chocolate and peanut butter?!?! It was SO good. It’s filling yet not sit in your stomach filling, definitely feels like your having dessert but it’s actually high in protein and has real ingredients! Give it a try the next time you’re looking for a little something sweet 🍥🫶🏻 #greekyogurtrecipes #desserttreats #healthyalternatives #chocolatepeanutbutter #faithflynn #sweetsnacks
What does your ideal work day look like? To be honest mine has nothing to do with my current career. Woops! I said it. My ideal workday would be: Wake up at 6 and meditate Workout / sauna / cup of tea Coach clients first thing in the morning! That way I can give them my best energy Work on my brand / company that I want to start one day / creative brainstorm sessions to continue to expand my offerings and my knowledge, make health awareness accessible to all More coaching A healthy smoothie or salad that makes me feel good! Go for a walk and do a @superhumanapp walking meditation Cook a delicious meal, chill, take a bath Spend time with the people I love Do it all over again the next day When you start to dream of what you want your days to look like, and you intentionally meditate on that, and you write about it everyday, and you visualize yourself DOING the things that you want to be doing, your whole life can start to change. If you asked me a year ago if I believed I would be where I am today I would have doubted myself big time. It’s incredible the things we can do when we put our mind to it. This is your reminder to show up for yourself. No one else is going to do the work for you. Dream | meditate | write | visualize | DO IT None of the other stuff works unless you do the work. Have a beautiful Monday, don’t forget to crush it ✌🏻🙌🏻 • • • • • • #healthcoach #iin #iinhealthcoach #faithflynn #mondaymotivation #dreamjob #monday #article #kinnelon #dothework #showupforyourself
greek salad 🥬🍅🥑🫒 I used to not be a fan of greek salads but they are so refreshing and filling I finally got into them recently. This one is simple and you probably have most of these ingredients at home! Romaine. Cucumbers. Tomatoes (I bought pre sixes because lazyyy). Green cabbage to change things up. Avocado. Red peppers. Kalamata olives. And I made my own croutons with a low carb wrap in the air fryer. Added chicken (Dijon & Italian seasoning) and goat cheese because we don’t have feta. It was a super simple recipe but also super delicious! Let me know if you try ✨ ✌🏻🥬 • • • • • • #health #healthcoach #iin #instituteofintegrativenutrition #faithflynn #greek #greeksalad #pita #grilledchicken #romaine #meatlessmonday #salad #saladrecipe

It will be scary (almost as scary as whatever my eyebrows are doing in this picture). Whatever path you choose, whether you feel it in your bones or it’s just something you have to do. It will be scary, but it will also be worth it. It’s what will help you to grow and change and evolve and become more of your truest self. This was my first and only ever event I threw. It was for my little passion project, Girl Crush, and it was perfect. I decided to throw a soirée in the city, 20 woman showed up and cheered me on. We ate, drank, meditated, exchanged stories, even shopped for some one of a kind jewelry. It was a cold afternoon in January right before the pandemic and it was a day I’ll never forget. I sat in front of those women and got to say a few words about what Girl Crush has meant to me over the years and how excited I was to see it slowly come to life in that moment. It’s been a dream, truly, to embark on this journey, and it’s been a true test of patience as I watch it come to life still today (yes there’s more coming soon I swear!). So yes this moment was a bit terrifying for me, but it was also the turning point. It was when I finally believed in myself and what I was doing. It’s part of what has propelled me to keep going, keep pushing and stay the course no matter how scary or insecure or silly it may feel at times. Figure out what you want, what you love, and go after it. ✌🏻✨ • • • • • • #faithflynn #girlcrush #healthcoach #nyc #wellness #health #meditation

What's something that you used to do when you were younger but you haven't done in a really long time and you miss it? Well for me, that's tennis. I used to play kind of a lot when I was younger. I took lessons, did camps, played with friends. It brought me joy from a young age, but I often wrote it off as trying a new sport and not something I would ever do competitively so I stopped playing. I forgot about it in a way for years. But anytime it would pop up I would be reminded that 'oh yeah, I used to play tennis and I was pretty good at it and I really enjoyed it'! So now, as a newly 31 year old, in the first month of this new year, I signed up for a tennis clinic... and it was awesome. It reminded me that you are never too old to try something new or to go back to something you love. I have no idea how long I will play but this was something that I needed to do for myself. To find a hobby, to work up a sweat, to meet people, to show up for something, to have somewhere to be on Sunday nights, to feel excited to go every week. Tennis showed up in my life exactly when I needed it most. What about you? What do you need more of right now that you are missing or that you haven't quite brought yourself to try just yet? You only get one chance at this life, ONE!!!! ONE SHOT! You'll always miss 100% of the shots you don't take. Go out there and take your shot. • • • • • • #faithflynn #tennis #health #healthcoach #hobby #hobbies #2022
simple shrimp salad ❤️🍤 @traderjoes saved me on this one This is just a bag of their kale salad (the one that has Brussel sprouts and cabbage already shaved into it) Cut up extra purple cabbage, cucumbers, grape tomatoes. Roasted a head of cauliflower. Shrimp is also from TJs frozen, made a little@marinade of olive oil m, soy sauce, lemon zest, parsley, thyme, chili powder and garlic salt and pepper. Broil for a few minutes until lightly charred and I made a little lime vinaigrette dressing to drizzle over. super simple!!! happy 🐪 day.

the perfect recipe for a detox bath: 2 cups epsom salt half cup baking soda ten drops lavender essential oil one stressed human This is one of my favorites that I did for 10 days straight on the 10 day blood sugar solution detox diet.

One of the recipes from @drmarkhyman 10 day detox. This one is SO good. Grilled (I baked) salmon with onion marmalade over an arugula salad. I also ran out of @traderjoes everything but the bagel seasoning so made my own and it was 😍💯 10/10 will be making this one again soon!

same things, different day. Taking control of my morning routine has finally happened for me. I’m not perfect and honestly if it wasn’t for working from home during the pandemic it probably wouldn’t have stuck for long, but I’m so grateful for sticking with it. The best way to stick to a morning routine (in my opinion) is to write down everything you want to do the next morning and time box it. My morning routine starts like this (and you can even do it for the whole day!): 6:30 wake up, brush teeth immediately 7-8 workout 8 shower (cold for at least 30 seconds if not longer) and get ready 8:30 green tea, smoothie if I’m feeling it 9 take a few minutes to meditate and ground myself before the day starts 9-6ish work (I’ve been really trying to put a stopping point at the end of the day and stick to it!) 6-7 make dinner, eat dinner 7-8 walk 8-9:30 do my class (I started taking nutrition classes with @nutritionschool and it’s super important to stay on top of it as I’m doing the accelerated program) 9:30-10 meditate/journal, get ready for bed 10 bedtime! This is definitely an ideal day and it doesn’t always look like this but the morning portion usually sticks. Especially when I write it down! So grab a notebook and think about what is a priority to you. Write it down every night right before you go to sleep and don’t forget to be gentle with yourself. You aren’t going to be perfect everyday. That’s okay!! We’re still in a pandemic and life is still not that normal. Do what you can. One foot in front of the other! • • • • • • #iin #iinhealthcoach #iinstudent #nutritionschool #nutrition #august2020 #faithflynn #walk #walking #health #healthiswealth #sugarplums #kinnelon #healthcoach #healthcoaching #melissawoodhealth #melissawoodhealthworkout

Japchae 100% inspired by @bonberi It’s by far one of my favorite dishes ever! Noodles✔️ Veggies✔️ Salty✔️ Spicy✔️ Sweet potato glass noodles I used whatever vegetables I had on hand; bell pepper, long carrots, Persian cucumber. Cook the noodles, drain and rinse with cold water. Put the noodles back in a pan with some oil and add soy sauce. You can throw the vegetables into the noodles and cook for another couple minutes or I just added the noodles to the plate and put the roasted veggies on top. Sprinkled with sesame seeds, dash of sesame oil and siracha of course. SO good!!! Gotta give this one a try. You won’t be disappointed. • • • • • • #japchae #sweetpotato #sweetpotatonoodles #japchaenoodles #bonberi #sesame #sesameseeds #siracha #faithflynn
CHIC GREEK SALAD ✨ 🤍 🦋 🥬 This is my take on a Greek salad. It definitely doesn’t have all the classic Greek ingredients but this is what I had on hand and I think it turned out to be pretty delicious and filling! Fill a bowl of Mixed greens Sliced fresh tomato Chopped yellow bell pepper Cut up Persian cucumbers Quarter kalamata olives For the chickpeas** canned chickpeas rinsed. Add salt and pepper and mix. Squeeze juice from half a lemon and mix. Dash of garlic and onion powder and mix. Drizzle of balsamic and mix one last time. (Then taste it and see how goood it is just by itself!) Sprinkle micro greens on top for extra nutrients Dressing is juice from one whole lemon, tablespoon of olive oil, salt and pepper and any other seasoning you enjoy. I threw a chicken burger on top and made some of @bonberi’s shiitake mushroom caps (roasted lightly in avocado oil and tamari at 420 for 15-20 mins) This is definitely one of my new favorite salads that I will make again and I’ll try to bring in more classic Mediterranean eats. Hope you guys try it and make it your own! • • • • • • #health #healthiswealth #salad #greek #chicgreeksalad #faithflynn #summer #summersalad #saladrecipe #funsalad #nyc #newyorkcity #cleaneating #bonberi #healthcoach #iinhealthcoach #iin #iinstudent
What is your WHY? Why do you do the things that are hard? OR Why don’t you do the things that are hard? For the longest time I only thought of working out as beneficial to my body. I only cared about the aspect. It wasn’t until this past year that taught me working out is just as much for mental strength as it is physical. It can be hard to see it that way when it’s harder to see mental changes rather than physical. But this past year was what it was and I truly believe that staying committed to moving my body has helped my mental health more than I even realize. So that has become my why. I recognize that mental health goes soo much deeper than that for so many people and this is definitely not a quick fix to anything. It has just become another tool in my toolbox for me to turn to when I’m feeling off or anxious or anything other than how I want to feel. What is your why? Why do you show up everyday? What is your why? xxFF • • • • • • #why #whatisyourwhy #motivation #strength #faith #hope #moveyourbody #move #applefitnessplus #applefitness #faithflynn #weights #simplemodern #lululemon #underarmour #brooksrunning
JUICE! Celery. Cucumber. Lemon. Apple (pink lady for extra sweetness). Ginger (for extra spice). This is one of my favorite juice combos. I love how frothy the top gets when you first juice it. It’s incredibly nourishing and just makes you feel so good. I don’t get to make juice everyday but when I do I love how good I feel after it. @breville • • • • • • #juice #juicing #natural #celery #celeryjuice #celeryjuicebenefits #medicalmedium #cucumber #lemon #pinklady #apple #ginger #brevillejuicer #breville #health #wellness #healthandwellness #faithflynn
homemade chia seed pudding so easy. so good. one cup liquid (I used oat milk) 3-4 tablespoons chia seeds stir well and let it sit for at least 30mins in the fridge I waited until the next day and poured the jar into a bowl. Added raspberries and blueberries and melted some peanut butter because why not! Drizzled that on top and I also added some granola just to make it extra filling. * be careful with chia seeds! They expand in your stomach so they can make you super full!!! Be sure to eat this dish extra slow and chew well :) * A super easy breakfast fave that I’ll be making again soon! xxFF • • • • • • #breakfast #food #chia #chiaseeds #peanutbutter #chiaseedpudding #chiaseedpuddingrecipe #faithflynn #recipe #recipes #plantbased #health #nutrition #healthcoach #wellness #fruit #blueberries #raspberries
ONE OF THE BEST MEALS I’VE EVER MADE. And I really don’t say that a lot... 100% plant based (I hate the word vegetarian and all the labels) Acorn Squash. Sweet potato. Kale salad. The green tahini sauce!!! Acorn squash: slice and lightly drizzle with olive oil and salt. Roast at 400, 20 mins each side. Done. Sweet potato fries: chop sweet potatoes (I did 4 small ones for 2 people), you should soak them in an ice bath with lemon for 25 mins, pat them dry and then add seasoning but I just added seasoning. Salt pepper garlic powder onion powder paprika chili powder and oregano (which I didn’t have tonight so oh well). Roast on parchment paper for 20 mins and then flip half way, roast for another 20. Kale salad: whatever leftover vegetables you have in the fridge. I did red peppers and Persian cucumbers. Dressing (my favorite part): olive oil, lemon, cocoaminos, salt and pepper. Massage the kale!! You can use tongs if you don’t want to get your hands dirty. The green tahini sauce: my friend sent me this recipe. It’s so goood. Tahini. Parsley. Lemon juice. Water. I can share the measurements if you’d like. Blend it in a mini food processor and dip EVERY vegetable in it. It’s that good! This dish has so much flavor and it’s so hearty. I know it’s all vegetables and people are often like “I can’t just eat vegetables for dinner blah blah” but this is so good and so filling, I think you’ll look at plant based meals in an entirely new light. This way of eating is something I strive for on a daily basis and it’s truly because of @bonberi that I learned how to pair foods together and that you can make such simple ingredients taste so unbelievably delicious. I hope you try to make this meal and add your own take to it! It’s one of my faves and I already can’t wait to make it again soon. xxFF • • • • • #dinner #plantbased #bonberi #vegetables #veggies #nj #kinnelon #squash #acornsquash #sweetpotatoes #sweetpotatofries #kale #kalesalad #massagedkale #roast #roastedveggies #roastedpotatoes #lemon #dressing #health #healthandwellness #faithflynn

Friday’s are for FRUIT BOWLS! I love a good fruit bowl. It’s like a simple reminder to eat food that makes you feel good. It’s so colorful and can brighten up a room. I don’t always eat every piece of fruit. Sadly sometimes there are pieces that go to waste but fruit is so easy to incorporate into your daily routine. You can grab an apple or banana or orange on the go. You can throw any of it into a smoothie. It can even be a great for digestion to have after dinner instead of sweets but when you still want to have something that tastes sweet. It’s natures sugar! What are some of your favorite fruits that you like to throw into your fruit bowl?! • • • • • • #fruit #fruitbowl #friday #happyfriday #gratitude #food #nature #natural #naturessugar #health #healthy #clean #healthandwellness #faithflynn #misfitsmarket

Walk. Breathe. One foot in front of the other. Deep breath in. Deep breath out. I haven’t been outside for a walk in awhile (haven’t been out much at all lately) and today I just stopped and said I have to go outside right now or else I’m gonna lose it. 🙃 And what a relief it was. I used to hate the cold but now I think it feels nice. It makes me feel alive and out of comfort zone and when I move my body I start to warm up and I realize that I am in control of how I feel so much of the time. And sometimes just a simple walk outside is all that it takes to shift my mindset. ✨ Those days when you are all in your head and can’t keep track of what day it is or what you’re supposed to be working on or you miss a friends birthday or you forget to brush your teeth, this is your reminder to slow down. I should take my own advice and a lot of the time I don’t but a walk outside can be enough to reset the day and your mindset. I’m grateful that I listened to my body (finally) and got up from the chair and went for a walk today. Fingers crossed to do it again tomorrow! • • • • • • #outdoors #sunset #walk #walking #sunsetwalk #jersey #newjersey #thursday #fridayeve #getoutside #goforawalk #moveyourbody #movement #grateful #gratitude #gratefultobealive #hoorayfor #hoorayforwalking #amandakloots #marieforleo #bschool #faithflynn #melrobbins #brenebrown #tedtalk #supersoul #oprah
Who else misses traveling??? If you’re thinking about taking a trip anytime soon I can’t recommend Zion National Park enough. We often want to go travel to Europe and all of these amazing places outside the US but don’t sleep on the beauty we have right here in this country. It’s STUNNING! Zion is probably a place that if you went anytime soon it would be pretty socially distanced and safe. I went twice once in November and once in February and that probably wasn’t the “best” time to go but even so it was still amazing both times. I can’t wait to plan a trip somewhere, anywhere really and just turn off for a few days and explore some new place I’ve never been!

A new kind of Sunday dinner ❤️ @beyondmeat sausage and peppers! Sunday dinners always reminded me of hearty warm meals full of flavor. This is my take on a new kind of Sunday dinner. I don’t eat red meat or pork but I do love the way these @beyondmeat hot Italian sausages taste!! I think it’s important to find healthy alternatives where you can and incorporate more plant based items that will keep you feeling full and satisfied. This one hit the spot and came out better than even I expected! Recipe👇🏻👇🏻 One whole yellow onion Two packages of @beyondmeat we did one regular and one hot Italian (for 5 people we still had some leftover) 3-4 bell peppers. Red and yellow are my preference but orange would work too Garlic Heat up a skillet with olive oil and then add onions once the pan is hot. Sauté a few minutes, stir occasionally. I roasted the peppers for 10-15 minutes on 425 just to get them a little soft and then threw them into the pan with the garlic salt pepper and oregano. Sauté for 5-10 mins and then add “sausage”! I cut it up into quarter sized pieces. Continue to sauté another 5-10 minutes and add a 1/2 cup of red wine. Reduce to simmer. Keep stirring and you’ve got a delicious meal that even those who love meat will enjoy! • • • • • • #beyondmeat #vegetarian #vegan #vegetables #recipes #bonberi #newyorkcity #nyc #newjersey #nj #dinner #sundaydinner #delicious #food #foodnetworkthekitchen #foodnetworkfaves #faithflynn #freckledfoodie #freckledfoodienyc #manga #italianfood
The best mornings are the ones that you prioritize yourself. Your family. Your mental health. Your physical well-being. Your spiritual side. The worst ones are when we wake up and dive immediately into social media, immediately soaking in someone else’s life rather than waking up and appreciating our own. The worst ones are when we give our time and energy to the things that we know don’t bring us joy, that bring us down. That we don’t even actually care about! Yet it’s a part of our routine to wake up and jump on social media and check people’s stories and trick ourselves into believing that someone else’s life is better than our own. Take an extra moment in the morning to say thank you for another day. To hug the ones close to you. To love yourself and this life exactly where you are. Give yourself exactly what you need. have a beautiful day✨✌🏻 • • • • • • #florida #westpalmbeach #thebreakers #sunrise #sunriseyoga #yoga #mentalhealth #gratitude #faithflynn
Brussels x side dish I could eat these raw with salt pepper and EVOO. BUTTTT the trick is- add a splash of balsamic vinegar. It makes it a little extra sweet and just tastes so good and fresh and SIMPLE! When cooking vegetables, air on the side of simple. Salt pepper and olive oil go a long way. It’s hard to mess up vegetables with that combo. The other trick is to spread them out on a roasting pan and roast for 30ish mins (flipping half way through) at 425. The most simple and delicious side dish🥬 happy Friday, enjoy!! • • • • • • #brussels #brusselsprouts #veggies #eatyourveggies #vegetables #vegetarian #greens #estyourgreens #simplecooking #cleancooking #dinner #faithflynn #bonberi

1.11.2020 ✨🤍 GIRL CRUSH SOIRÉE One year ago we celebrated the ladies in our lives who are #crushingit we gathered at a bar in the east village and drank champagne, ate all the snacks and treats, mediated, talked about where we’ve been and where we’re going and little did we know it would be one of the last times we all gathered together in a bar in New York City for a very long time. Girl Crush started as a passion project for me at a time in my life when I was deeply unmotivated at work, confused about life, and looking at my future with a blank stare. It started because I saw women all around me who were figuring out what they loved to do and going all in on it. They were using their creativity to do things that they once only dreamed of and I knew I wanted more of that in my life. To date I have interviewed 6 fierce and fabulous Girl Crushes and this is just the beginning! Thank you for the love and support over the last year. 🥂 I look forward to the day when we can all gather in a bar in NYC and be together again! • • • • • #girlcrush #faithflynn #gratitude #nyc #newyork #theimmigrant #eastvillage #manhattan
✌🏻 OUT, 2020! I just sent out my last newsletter of 2020. It felt nice I’m not gonna lie. I haven’t been super consistent about sending out newsletters because I don’t always feel like I have the right things to say and ultimately if it’s not going to serve you guys in some way then it’s not worth sending. One of my goals in 2021 is to work on how I can serve others better. How I can be of service and not always caught up in my own wants and needs. How can I help others? I may not always have the answer but I will spend all of this next year trying to find the answer. I will continue to create content that feels relevant and personal to me in hopes of it being relatable and inspirational to you. For more content please check out faithflynn.com it’s where I post all of my blogs, stories, photos and worksheets. It’s been a labor of love and one that I hope continues to grow and flourish forever. Have a safe and healthy and happy holiday everyone ✨🍾🤍 #faithflynn #grateful #2020 #2021 #holidays #holidayseason #peace #peaceout✌
In my parents home, in my sisters childhood bedroom, I did my 5th Girl Crush interview with the sweetest powerhouse @jessicamariecheney (CEO of @wecrushevents) I realize this does not look glamorous and that’s because it’s not. But this is what “just starting out” looks like. This is the journey! It’s fun and it’s hard and it’s a learning experience every step of the way. And I wouldn’t change a thing. If you are thinking of starting a business or a side hustle the only piece of advice I can tell you is to get started. Grab a notebook and start jotting down ideas. Talk to people who have done what you want to do. Network. Do research. Google is your friend!! As Jessica reminded me tonight 😂 it’s going to be scary and it’s going to take time so you might as well just start now. • • • • • • #girlcrush #faithflynn #sidehustle #blog #femaleentrepreneur #femaleownedbusiness #female

You are what you repeatedly do. I started this blog/IG with the goal of helping people to work on themselves. A lot of what I end up focusing on is food, working out, gratitude and mindfulness. It might seem like this isn’t a place that has tips and tools to find your passion and be the best version of yourself but it still 1000% is. Because as I like to say a lot of the time it’s the little things, the small changes, the slight tweaks that will get you to where you want to go. It doesn’t happen all at once. Rome wasn’t built in a day. But the more we act like it was the harder we are on ourselves when we have human moments. When we make mistakes. When we have momentary lapses in judgement. It’s not about eating clean 365 days a year and never taking time off. It’s not about depriving yourself of the things that you love. It’s not about what you have to lose, rather it’s about all we have to gain. This blog will always be a place where you can find inspiration. It will be a place where you can be reminded to be human and to be the best version of yourself requires taking good care of yourself. In mind, body and spirit. It may seem like it’s just social media and scrolling is mindless sometimes. But if you can cut out the people who no longer serve you and focus on the accounts that make you feel good about being you then this place can be an endless scroll of healthy tips, a wealth of content, and a buttload of happiness! • • • • • • #healthhappiness #happiness #health #melrobbins #gratitude #mindbodysoul #faithflynn #eating #cleaneating #mindset #joy #doyou #nyc #newyork #ilovenewyork #freedomtower #usa #freedom #2020 #vote #voteearly #hoboken #weehawken #nj #newjersey #waterfront
Happy🌱Saturday! Where are the places in your home or life that you are allowing and encouraging yourself to grow? Where are the places that you are allowing light to come in and breathe life into you? Where are the places you are finding peace within yourself no matter where you are in life and allowing yourself to lean into that peace? We fill our homes with plants and lights and objects that look good, but how does any of this make us feel? Do we do it for feng shui or do we do it because it’s cool and expensive and other people will like it? Our homes are the place we spend the most amount of time, especially these days. Bring the things that you LOVE into your home, the things that make you feel really good. That bring your rooms to life. That make your home feel safe and comfortable. Remove the things that don’t make you feel good or that you’ve been meaning to get rid of or that’s been broken for far too long. Keep the things that give light and energy and breathe life into your space. • • • • • • #homes #home #houses #house #newjerseyhomes #hoboken #hobokennj #light #plants #himalayanpinksalt #plantstore #lights #lamps #candles #gratitude #faithflynn
SUMMER 2020. It came and went faster than any year I can remember. It feels like we missed some big holiday or event but really we just tried to stay safe and well with our families. It wasn’t always easy to see people out living their lives doing things we wanted to be doing but weren’t sure what felt right and what felt wrong. Do I feel like I missed out on stuff this year? Sure. I’ve basically been holed up in my apartment for the last 6 months. But do I regret doing my best to stay safe and to try to keep others safe also? Not at all. Whatever the fall and winter months bring please continue to stay safe. Wear a mask. Be respectful of others and their remember that this isn’t just about you. It’s about your family and friends and the people that you will inevitably interact with. It’s for the safety of everyone that we all do our part. Stay safe. Stay well. • • • • • • #staysafe #covid #coronavirus #corona #summer #summer2020 #2020 #wearamask #masks #hoboken #sunsets #sunrise #bekind #faithflynn
That’s right. I said it. Get off Instagram and go start your day. Stop scrolling. Stop wasting time. Stop wasting precious minutes that turn into hours checking out what other people are up to and comparing your life to theirs. Follow the people who inspire you. Who lift you up. Who remind you that it’s okay to mess up as long as you get back up again. Stop following the people who make you feel bad about yourself or your life or where you’re currently at. It won’t help you get to where you want to go. Trust me. Get off Instagram and go start your day👏🏻💥 • • • • • • #instagram #getoffinstagram #startyourday #stopwastingtime #dailyreminder #youdoyou #gratitude #faithflynn #2020 #september2020 #hoboken #nj #hobokennj
Everyday is a chance to begin again. The crash after the weekend is always hardest for me. It takes me longer to get back on track after a weekend of eating all the fun foods and drinking more than usual (even though I don’t really drink too much anymore, just doesn’t make me feel good). I usually give myself a workout pass on Monday but then Tuesday rolls around and I always feel like I should be ready to go workout and eat super clean and get back on track! Well the reality is that doesn’t always happen. This morning I prioritized sleep because that’s what I needed most. Next I knew I needed to get my digestion on track because it’s been pretty off balance lately. I buy celery almost every week and sometimes it goes straight into the garbage. Today I knew I needed to try a little harder because it would only make me FEEL better, and that’s been the 🗝 to it all. There will always be things we don’t want to do, that’s just life. But what is keeping you in your comfort zone and ultimately making you feel like shit in the long run and what do you need to do to push yourself to do the hard things and to FEEL better??? You have to answer that question for yourself. You have to put the work in. No one else is coming to save you. No one is coming to do the work for you. It’s. Up. To. You. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 And you can do it because you can do anything. • • • • • • #celery #celeryjuice #medicalmedium #health #healthfirst #healthiswealth #hoboken #comfortzone #youcandoit #priorities #gratitude #faithflynn #faith
HEALTHY—HOMEMADE—my take on—THAI! I was feeling very lazy tonight and all I wanted to do was order in dinner. I was thinking of all the delicious kinda healthy things I wanted but kept remembering that I had so many groceries in my my fridge I should just use what I have. Sooo here we are. Thai food is probably my favorite cuisine but I don’t always feel amazing after heavy noodles and loads of oils. So I created my own take on Thai food. It’s nowhere near as good as authentic Thai food but if you want a healthy and cheap alternative this is the meal for you to try! Egg noodles Tofu egg crumble Raw vegetable salad Spicy peanut sauce It was perfect 👌🏼 just what I needed to get my Thai fix but also save a few bucks and a few cals. Happy to share the recipes with anyone who wants it! 🌶🥒🥕🍴 • • • • • • #thai #thaifood #thailand #thaifoodstagram #thaifoodlover #thaifoodie #thaifoodstyle #dinner #saturdaynight #hoboken #eggnoodle #tofu #rawveg #bonberi #spicythai #spicypeanutsauce #egg #food #foodphotography #foodstagram #foodie #faithflynn #cook #cooking #cookingathome #cooking
WORRYING DOESN’T GET YOU ANYWHERE. ACTION DOES. If you’re one of those people who can always find something to worry about, even if it’s far off or unrealistic or totally out of your control, you need to read this quote a few times. Worrying will not change the situation you are in. It won’t make you feel better. It will only make you feel worse and more anxious. If you’re worried about an outcome, TAKE ACTION. If you’re worried about an outcome that you can control, TAKE ACTION. If you’re worried about an outcome that you can’t control, stop worrying and TAKE ACTION. Focus on the things that you can control and the rest will fall into place. But if you spend your days worrying about the worst possible case scenario that may or may not happen to you, you’ll have wasted all your days waiting for something that probably will never come. Because things can always be worse. But they can also always be better. Be exactly where you are right now. Let go of what you can’t control and TAKE ACTION on the things that you can. • • • • • • #stopworrying #startliving #loveyourlife #liveyourlife #takeaction #letgo #girlcrush #female #empowerment #gratitude #youcandoit #youcandoanything #blessed #faithflynn #grateful #nyc #newyork #quarantine #newjersey #august2020 #hoboboken
WHY I HAVE A LOVE/HATE RELATIONSHIP WITH SOCIAL MEDIA 💗🙅🏻♀️🤳🏻 These last two months I decided to take a much needed social media hiatus. I’ve wanted to take a break for a while, but honestly I felt like I would be missing out. And fomo is real people. I didn’t want to miss a friend’s birthday or a new Tasty recipe drop or anything else of importance that you can “only” see on social media. But if these last few months of being quarantined have taught me anything, it’s that it’s okay to slow down and to shut down. It’s okay to remove myself once in a while and not engage in every little thing that comes my way. So I took a break from it all. I deleted Instagram and made the conscious effort to put my phone down and be more present to my life. And in a lot of ways, this little hiatus was exactly what I needed. To read more on why I love/hate social media go to faithflynn.com or click the link in my bio. You might be surprised you have a lot of the same feelings towards it, too.

WHAT IS GIRL CRUSH?✨💖 Girl Crush started as a personal side project for me, focused on one-on-one interviews, uncovering common themes and universal truths that women in their 20’s and 30’s could relate to. It has since evolved into an all-encompassing methodology around mind, body, soul wellbeing that anyone can tap into. I created the perfect formula that led me to find fulfillment and I want everyone to be able to create the perfect formula of fulfillment for themselves. • • • • • • • • #girlcrush #girlscrushingit #girls #ladies #women #womenempowerment #womensupportingwomen #females #faithflynn #whatisgirlcrush #hoboken #hobokengirl #mindful #blessed #gratitude #quarantine

Mother’s Day Meditation 💐✨🤍 guided by the one and only @daisy_anabelle it was a beautiful reminder of all the women who are mothers, have mothers, act like mothers, were mothers, etc. It was for everyone to find a sense of peace and healing on Mother’s Day and it grounded each of us in a way that I can’t quite put into words. If you haven’t tried meditating before I highly recommend you give it a try. You don’t need a fancy app or really any equipment at all. Just you. Your thoughts. And a few seconds or minutes of stillness. If you want more info on how to get started or best practices please reach out to @daisy_anabelle !! She’s amazing at what she does and I can’t wait to see where this takes her!🧘🏻♀️✨👏🏻🤍 ❣️ I had the privilege to interview @daisy_anabelle for my very first #GirlCrush interview last year!

It’s pretty crazy to look back and realize we’ve been in this place for just about two months. It’s even crazier to look to the future and wonder when this is all going to end. What’s most important is to find some sort of positivity in the little things. Sitting outside in the sun is a great reminder that things will be okay. Listening to my favorite song is a reminder that things will be okay. Writing for me is a reminder that everything will be okay. It’s also okay to not be okay! Go through the feelings. We’re all dealing with something right now and this pandemic looks different for everyone. What do you need to do to get through? What do you need to keep your end up or your family or your partner or your roommates head up? Now is a beautiful time to be there for someone who needs you, and to be there for yourself 🤍 take the time you need. Be patient with yourself. Don’t be hard on yourself for not sticking to a routine or for not feeling like yourself 100% of the time. Take care and hang in there.

How is everyone holding up? These past few days I was fortunate enough to spend with my family, something I haven’t been able to do in weeks. Actually almost two months. It felt a bit strange at first to be spending so much time with more than one person, but at the same time felt like I had never moved out of the house. The truth is, if it wasn’t for this time of being quarantined and working from home I would have never spent this much time just for the hell of it with my family. It would have been a day here or a night there, but we were able to have the last three days to just hang out and be together and for that and as weird as it may sound, for this time, I’m grateful. How has quarantine and this time affected you and your family? Are you using the time to reach out and be there for one another? Are you grateful for the phone calls, if nothing else, to be able to hear each other’s voice and talk through the hope that this will all be over soon? This time is certainly unprecedented. It’s unreal. Finding appreciation in the littlest things, an after dinner walk with my mom and sister, where we could breathe in the fresh air and social distance and just be reminded of how lucky we are for the things that we no longer will take for granted. I hope you and your families are staying safe and healthy.

Need a way to pass the time? Here are three ingredients you probably already have in your house that are everyone’s favorite! Chocolate (it can be a candy, a bar, MnMs, chips, chunks, light or dark, doesn’t matter). Peanut butter or any kind of nut butter! And oil. I used coconut oil. You could also use MCT oil or maybe even a drop of olive or avocado oil. Melt each one separately. Spoon it into either a cupcake tin, these silicon ones are great for this type of treat, I’ve even used a coffee filter before and made one massive peanut butter cup. The possibilities are endless! After you’re done mixing it all up, pop it in the freezer and voila! You’ve got treats for days 💛✨ • • • • • • #quarantine #treats #snacks #peanutbuttercups #hoboken #jerseycity #faithflynn #girlcrush #peanutbutter #chocolate #darkchocolate #milkchocolate #candy #recipe #deliciousness
NORI WRAPS 🥑🥬🥒🌯 Didn’t realize I bought plant based tuna packets... not sure how I feel about them but we gave it a whirl anyway.

GIRL CRUSH is coming back!!!! These last few weeks/months I had to take a step back and really assess what’s important. I had to give it a beat and deal with how I was feeling about all of this “new normal” before I was able to march on and be able to provide the support and environment that I hoped to create. GIRL CRUSH is BACK. And to be fair it never left. As soon as the soirée was over I jumped right into writing my very first book proposal! The book is titled GIRL CRUSH (obvi) and I’m going to start to share bits and pieces of it with you! In addition to the book proposal, GIRL CRUSH will be going virtual! Like most things in the world today, it’s our lifeline for staying connected and keeping the lines of communication open so we can continue to learn, share and keep creating TOGETHER. I hope this will be the outlet you’ve been looking for. It will NOT focus on C*%#$-19. It will focus on the women who are crushing it and all that they are doing to get through this wiiiiild time. Stay tuned for more GIRL CRUSH updates 🌷🌈✨🤍 • • • • • • #girlcrush #nyc #hoboken #bars #restaurants #quarantine #socialdistance #spiritweek #friends #women #faithflynn #womencrushingit #grateful #womensupportingwomen #womenempowerment #ladies

Grateful for this smoothie🙏🏼💚 But really... we haven’t been able to get groceries for the past few days and it’s amazing how much I took a simple trip to the grocery store for granted. Being able to buy fresh produce is a gift. It may sound crazy but I genuinely missed having fresh greens in the fridge. It makes me so happy to have food that I know is good for me and makes me feel better when I eat it. It’s not easy to get groceries right now. It can even be dangerous for some people to go to the store to buy them. Whatever you are able to do, enjoy the foods that make you feel good. That remind you of simpler times to get you through. And that are easiest and safest for you to get. Stay healthy. Stay safe🙏🏼 stay grateful for even the little things, like this smoothie 🥰 • • • • • • #smoothie #greensmoothie #health #healthandwellness #wellness #wellbeing #grateful #recipe #drinkyourgreens #faithflynn #girlcrush #quarantine

This is one of my favorite simple salads I’ve made in a long time! Using just romaine, I chop up the bunches rather than buy a bag of it. You get more. It’s more fresh. Takes an extra two minutes and it’s definitely worth it. Veggies on a salad- I like a lot of veggies to keep it interesting. Today I stuck with most of my basics. 🥒cucumber 🌶red pepper 🥕carrot 🍅tomato Lots of salt and pepper and I throw crushed red pepper flakes on, too. Top it all off with half an avocado and a veggie burger to keep it filling. Drizzled some balsamic glaze because.. quarantine and we need things to stay as fun as possible!!! This salad was super easy to make, probably took about 10 mins. Its going to be a new staple for lunchtime for sure 🙌🏼 • • • • • • #lunch #salad #romaine #veggieburger #drpraegers #quarantine #socialdistancing #eatyourgreens #eatyourveggies #faithflynn #girlcrush #avocado #balsamicglaze

I got this planner a couple weeks ago and realized we are already 13 weeks into 2020!!! So much has happened over the last 3 months it’s hard to believe. But here we are. The only way to move forward with our best foot forward especially in times like these is to plan. Plan what your day will look like. Plan out some goals you want to set for yourself for the week. It doesn’t have to be anything monumental. Just make sure you’re not just floating from one day to the next. Keep some structure. Plan out some meals. Schedule true down time and schedule time to call your girlfriends! It’s a crazy time but take advantage of it however you can. It’s still a great day to have a great day🤍 @papier • • • • • #planner #planner2020 #2020 #newyear #planyourdays #setgoals #workhard #surrender #believeinyourself #choosejoy #chooselove #faithflynn #gratefulfortoday #yougotthis #girlcrush #crushingit #crushit
HOWDY YA’LL👋🏻👋🏻 With how nutso the last few days have been, I’m trying to keep things as normal as possible. Cooking is one of my favorite things to do and even though we’re working from home doesn’t necessarily mean you have all the time in the world to do the things you normally would be able to do in your home. I came up with this meal planner because honestly I bought a ton of groceries and all of a sudden felt very overwhelmed. I wanted to eat everything at once! While also trying to ration it out so I don’t have to go back to the grocery store for awhile. This has actually been super helpful so I know what I’m going to eat and when (of course adding in other snacks when I am feeling extra hungry). As a general rule of thumb since we don’t know how long this quarantine is going to last eat all your perishables first! Fruits, veggies, produce, etc. that way if you can’t make it to a store you will gave your back up frozen meals, boxed foods and pantry staples still around! Plus the perishables are usually the stuff that will make you feel better ☺️ This is new territory for all of us. Do what you can, take care of the things that are in your control and the rest will work itself out one way or another. I can share the grocery list you need for all the things in this list if anyone wants it. Especially the dessert 🤪🤪 xxFF • • • • • • #mealplan #mealprep #mealplanner #meals #corona #coronavirus #greenjuice #greensmoothie #nutrition #bonberi #wereinittogether #hoboken #hobokengirl #faithflynn #selfcare #doyou
The truth about green juice & writing. Two things that I love. Two things that make me feel really good! But two things that are the hardest for me to be consistent with. Sometimes I wake up in the morning and I can’t wait to have juice but only because I can’t wait to feel how good I feel AFTER I drink the juice. Same goes for writing. My writing habit has been a real struggle for me lately and I love writing!! That doesn’t mean that I want to do it 24/7. It means I love how it makes me feel and I love that I can express myself in a certain way with my writing and hope that it resonates with even one person. The stuff that we love and the stuff that we want to do is still stuff that we have to make time for and stay committed to. We’re still humans who get distracted and eat entire bags of chips (me today 🙋🏻♀️) and make mistakes - even though on social media all it may look like we do is work out and eat green things. This is a process. The writing and the green juices is who I want to be because I want to wake up everyday and feel like the best version of myself. I want to be using my mind and my body to their full potential because why the heck not??! You may not want to do something because it’s hard or it takes effort or it may just straight up suck, but if it’ll make you feel better or feel stronger or feel a little more confident about yourself, then go do it. No one got anywhere by taking the easy way out and living inside their comfort zone. • • • • • • #doitanyway #fivesecondrule #5secondrule #melrobbins #themelrobbinsshow #greenjuice #juice #greens #drinkyourgreens #celeryjuice #mac #macbook #apple #macbookpro #book #writingabook #bookproposal #hayhouse #writersworkshop #faithflynn #mindbodysoul #girlcrush #girlcrushsoiree
I like to share all the exact brands of the smoothies I make, sometimes it’s just more helpful to know what to look for. THIS turned out to be my favorite smoothie that I make. It looks like it has a lot of ingredients and if it’s too many for you take out whatever you want, add anything in or make replacements as needed. I love this smoothie because it’s super green based (I do almost two cups of spinach) the rest is really just splashes and drops of the other ingredients. It’s super light because I use mostly water💦 It’s slightly sweet because I add date syrup 🌰 (not a date but going to pretend like it is!) Just an overall favorite smoothie!! It pays to try things out and throw in what you like and what makes your body feel good💪🏻💪🏻 Coming sooon to faithflynn.com xxFF • • • • • • #smoothie #smoothierecipe #recipe #foodie #greensmoothie #greens #getyourgreens #faithflynn #mindbodysoul #faithsfaves #supergreens #supergreenssmoothie #supergreensmoothie #hoboken #kachavatribe #bulletproof #wholefoods #oatly #healthandwellness #wellandgoodeats #wellandgood
It’s not easy but it’s been so important for me to make working out more of a priority. Yes sometimes it totally sucks. I went to a night class tonight for the first time in awhile and it wasn’t bad! As much as I hate getting up at 5am to work out, there’s nothing like starting your morning with a workout. Done by 7, shower, smoothie and off to work! I’m nowhere near where I want to be but I’m trying to be better everyday. Yes because I know it’s good for me but also because of how good I feel after I work out. I need it for my mental state so much more than physical. If you’re feeling stuck or frustrated with life and like you just can’t shake it, try going for a walk or a jog or just moving your body more. It may not solve everything but it will help to slowly shift your mindset which may be exactly what you need. @thebarmethodhoboken • • • • • • #hoboken #hobokennj #workouthoboken #barmethod #barmethodhoboken #barre #bar #workout #workitout #moveyourbody #move #stretch #hobokengirl #faithflynn #girlcrush
