Monday Mood + My Favorite Stack

raisingcleanLeave a comment

It’s Monday morning. The house is waking up. The to-do list is already long, and let’s be honest… so is the laundry pile.

But here’s the thing: I no longer start my week in survival mode.

Instead, I have a little ritual that sets the tone for my energy, my mindset, and my mood and I call it my Monday Morning Stack. It’s my way of fueling from the inside out, with purpose and intention.

Let me break it down for you:

🌿 Broad Spectrum Jelly

This is my calm-in-a-storm moment.
One little jelly helps support my mood, lower stress, and smooth out those anxious jitters that tend to sneak in on a Monday morning. It’s gentle, clean, and works fast. I can feel the shift in how I show up.

🍊 Immune Bloom Jelly

With little ones running around (and touching everything), immune support isn’t optional… it’s a must.
This jelly is packed with elderberry + functional mushrooms to help keep my defenses strong. Bonus: it tastes like a treat, not a chore.

🌱 Digestive Jelly

Gut health is the foundation of it all, and this one supports digestion, reduces bloat, and helps everything stay regular.
Let’s just say it keeps things… moving. 😉 And when my gut feels good, my mood and focus do too.

✨ Collagen with CBG

I add this into my morning smoothie or just shake it up with cold water and ice.
It supports my hair, skin, joints, and even my thyroid. And thanks to the added CBG, it offers extra anti-inflammatory benefits, which is perfect after a busy weekend or hard workout.

This stack isn’t just a supplement routine.
It’s part of how I say yes to feeling good – without the crash, chemicals, or overwhelm.

It’s energy, immunity, gut support, and beauty from within… simplified.

This is what choosing wellness looks like for me right now.
Not perfect. Not complicated.
Just little shifts that add up to a better Monday mood… and a better week.

Want help building your own stack? I’ve got you. 💛

What Moms Really Want for Mother’s Day (Hint: It’s Not a Mug)

raisingcleanLeave a comment

There’s a running joke among moms that every Mother’s Day gift is either a mug that says “Best Mom Ever” or a candle with a generic scent and a tag someone else filled out. And while we appreciate the sentiment (and yes, we are the best moms ever), most of us crave something much deeper:

Rest. Relaxation. And a moment to ourselves.

Let’s be honest — motherhood is the most beautiful, exhausting, emotionally-charged job on the planet. Whether you’re a mom of littles who hasn’t had an uninterrupted night’s sleep in years, or a seasoned mama still doing all the things for everyone around her, one universal truth stands: we are tired.

This year, instead of flowers that wilt or a brunch reservation that still requires wrangling toddlers, give the moms (and mothers of your children) in your life what they really want: a reason to exhale.

Introducing: The Mother’s Day Relaxation Bundle

Available now through May 11th (or while supplies last)

This limited-edition bundle is like a warm hug, a deep breath, and a “go take a nap” — all wrapped into one beautifully curated gift. It’s thoughtfully designed to support rest, relaxation, and radiant health from the inside out.

Here’s what’s inside:

🍫 3 Weeks of Chocolate Collagen

Yes, chocolate. This delicious, dairy-free collagen isn’t just a treat — it’s a functional beauty and wellness supplement designed to support skin, hair, joints, and gut health. Every mom deserves to glow from the inside out.

🌿 Unwind Jellies

Think of these as stress relief in a gummy. Infused with clean hemp and calming botanicals, Unwind Jellies help ease tension, support mood balance, and encourage those “I can breathe again” moments we all crave after a long day.

🌙 Sleep Jellies

Because counting sheep just isn’t cutting it. These jellies are packed with clean CBN to help you fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, and wake up feeling like a human (not a zombie).

😴 A Silky Sleep Mask

Light-blocking, ultra-soft, and surprisingly luxurious. It’s the finishing touch to create a peaceful bedtime routine that actually works — because let’s face it, most moms haven’t bought anything for themselves in months.

💰 And the Best Part?

It’s almost HALF OFF retail price and ships free — so you can gift generously without the guilt.

Whether you’re shopping for your mom, your sister, your spouse, or yourself (because, let’s be real, you deserve this), this bundle is the perfect way to say:

“You give so much. This is just for you.”

🌸 Don’t Wait

This bundle is only available through May 11th or while supplies last — and last year’s Mother’s Day specials sold out fast.

Let this be the year we stop asking moms what they want and start giving them what they actually need:
Better sleep. Less stress. And a little bit of chocolate.

👉 Grab the Mother’s Day Relaxation Bundle now prefilled shopping cart w/ $10 off for new clients!

I stopped being the stressed mom & invested in my health and everything changed…

It’s wild that it was as simple as half a jelly to take Adeline’s severe social anxiety down from a 10 to a 2.

It’s crazy that simply taking a jelly every day turns me from an irritable, overstimulated mom to a calm, patient mom.

It’s amazing that one scoop of collagen with CBG in it can take back pain I’ve had for over a decade and make it disappear.

It’s beautiful that the seasonal depression Chris has struggled with forever is now managed for the first winter ever thanks to half a jelly a day.

I’m so happy I asked questions. I’m so happy I took the time to learn about our ECS. I’m so grateful I decided “what could it hurt, nothing else is working” and gave it a try.

Our family has changed for the better because I decided it was time to invest in our health.

And the regimen that has brought us back to ourselves and made us happier and healthier is about to be at an incredible discount for Green Compass’ anniversary!

If you’re sick of living with pain, anxiety, overwhelm, lack of focus, lack of sleep, rage, stress… I was too.

I said enough is enough. Will you?

I have experienced pain for yearsssss. I just attributed it to being a cheerleader for 8 years and accepted that it was just part of my life. That’s wild. Why do we just accept that we are going to live with pain when we could live pain free? 🤔

I have had to use a heating pad on my lower back just about every single night for as long as I can remember. The moment I lie down I feel an explosion of pain in my lower back.

Until a few weeks ago… I noticed recently that I haven’t needed my heating pad in several weeks. The lower back pain is basically gone. I actually could not believe it. I drink the highest quality, cleanest, most effective collagen I have found every day, I never miss a day, and holy moly am I reaping the benefits. 😍🙌

When my husband, Chris, learned that taking the collagen everyday significantly improved the lower back pain I have had for YEARS, he started taking it to help with his pain from being an athlete and ultra runner. Collagen is for everyone, not just women!

So let’s dive deeper into collagen… Widely recognized for its potential benefits, collagen is hailed as a cornerstone for skin health, joint support, and more.

  1. Skin Health and Elasticity: Collagen is a vital protein that forms the structural foundation of your skin, providing it with strength, elasticity, and resilience. As we age, the production of collagen naturally declines, leading to the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin. By supplementing with collagen, you can help replenish lost stores and support your skin’s elasticity, resulting in a more youthful and vibrant complexion. Clinical studies have shown promising results, with participants experiencing improvements in skin hydration, elasticity, and overall appearance.
  2. Joint Support and Mobility: Beyond its role in skin health, collagen plays a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of your joints and connective tissues. Cartilage, the flexible tissue that cushions your joints, is primarily composed of collagen. By supplementing with collagen, you can support joint health and mobility, potentially reducing discomfort associated with conditions such as osteoarthritis. Research suggests that collagen supplementation may help alleviate joint pain, increase flexibility, and support overall joint function, allowing individuals to maintain an active lifestyle as they age.
  3. Hair and Nail Strength: In addition to benefiting the skin and joints, collagen can also promote the health and strength of your hair and nails. As essential building blocks of these structures, collagen peptides provide the necessary support for strong, lustrous hair and healthy, resilient nails. By incorporating collagen into your daily routine, you may notice improvements in hair texture, thickness, and shine, as well as enhanced nail growth and durability.
  4. Gut Health and Digestion: The health of your gut lining plays a crucial role in overall digestive function and nutrient absorption. Collagen contains amino acids such as glycine, proline, and glutamine, which are known to support gut health and integrity. By fortifying the gut lining, collagen may help improve digestion, reduce inflammation, and promote optimal nutrient absorption. Additionally, collagen peptides have been shown to support the growth of beneficial gut bacteria, further enhancing digestive wellness.
  5. Muscle Mass and Recovery: Collagen is not only beneficial for skin, joints, and connective tissues but also plays a role in supporting muscle health and recovery. As a key component of muscle tissue, collagen provides structural support and helps maintain muscle strength and function. Supplementing with collagen post-exercise may aid in muscle recovery, reduce exercise-induced inflammation, and support the growth and repair of muscle fibers, ultimately enhancing athletic performance and recovery.

But, not all collagen is created equal. If it’s not organic you’re risking pesticide/herbicide contamination. If it’s not third party tested you’re risking heavy metal contamination. Additionally the collagen I have chosen has added CBG in it (nothing else on the market like this) which is giving increased benefits such as:

  1. Neuroprotective Properties: Some studies indicate that CBG may have neuroprotective properties, potentially making it useful in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases like Huntington’s disease and Parkinson’s disease.
  2. Anti-Inflammatory Effects: CBG has shown promise as an anti-inflammatory agent in preclinical studies. This suggests it could be helpful in managing conditions characterized by inflammation, such as inflammatory bowel disease and arthritis.
  3. Antibacterial Properties: Research has shown that CBG has antibacterial properties, particularly against antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria. This could make it a valuable tool in fighting bacterial infections.
  4. Glaucoma Treatment: Some studies suggest that CBG may help reduce intraocular pressure, making it a potential treatment for glaucoma.
  5. Appetite Stimulation: Like THC, CBG may stimulate appetite, which could be beneficial for individuals experiencing appetite loss due to medical conditions or treatments like chemotherapy.
  6. Potential Cancer Treatment: Early research indicates that CBG may inhibit the growth of cancer cells, particularly in certain types of cancer such as colon cancer. However, more research is needed in this area.
  7. Mood Enhancement: While not as well-studied as other cannabinoids like THC and CBD, some anecdotal evidence suggests that CBG may have mood-enhancing effects.
