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

raisingcleanLeave a comment

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 wish more women believed…

I wish more women believed that rest is productive, boundaries aren’t mean, eating food that loves you back isn’t boring, and healing isn’t liner 🫶

Ladies, it’s time to shift the narrative…

Rest is productive because it fuels us.

Boundaries? They’re an act of self-love, not selfishness.

Nourishing our bodies with food that supports us can be delicious AND fulfilling.

And healing? It’s a journey, not a straight line.

Let’s embrace all of it—because we’re worthy of the love, care, and balance we give to others. 💕

Oliveda Review

raisingcleanLeave a comment

It’s time I address this company. I can’t respect a company that builds itself up by tearing other companies down. The worst part is, the main thing they use to build themselves up is being “water free” and talking down about companies that use water in their skincare. But here’s the kicker, friends, not only is water CRUCIAL in skincare. Oliveda USES it! I’ve seen it as the SECOND ingredient in their products… I just can’t.

But despite that little fact that drives me insane, let’s dive deeper into why this is not a company I would be comfortable using or recommending.

Transparency is a must for me when I’m looking at companies I’m going to give my business to. Oliveda is so far from transparent it is painful. The way I look at it is they are preying on consumers who don’t think to read the ingredient label or feel they don’t know enough to even know what ingredients they are looking for. So, those people typically look at the badges to see if a brand is clean. Badges are a great way to demonstrate specific qualities of a product. Unless they are inaccurate and contradictory to your products… then they’re just a greenwashing tactic to trick consumers. Yuck.

These badges look AMAZING!
It’s too bad the ingredient labels contradict the badges completely…

Here you can see water as the second ingredient. You can see fragrance despite the “fragrance free” badge. You can also see zero indication of a single organic ingredient while they have labeled their entire brand as “organic” (which isn’t even possible by the way).

This alone is enough to keep me from ever giving my money to this brand or recommending them to anyone else. But they also use a few toxic ingredients as well (despite claims of being toxin free by those partnered with them). And this is why I do these reviews. Women (and men) deserve to know if they are using products linked to serious diseases or brands that are completely misleading and untrustworthy.

Water in your Skincare?

raisingcleanLeave a comment

🤔 Let’s bust a beauty myth 🤔

▶️▶️ Myth – a skincare product is not good/effective if water is the first or second ingredient

If you’ve heard that water should not be in skincare because it makes it less effective let me just tell you that I have found very few brands that do not use water in their products (including ones that claim to be waterless…) + I’d be much more concerned about a brand using toxins in their products than water, but that’s just me 🤷‍♀️

The brand that has built itself on bashing companies for using water in their formula USES WATER… Sometimes it’s even the second ingredient. They also use fragrance (while claiming to be fragrance free). They claim to be organic without a single organic ingredient in their labels. Their brand is built on misleading consumers and tearing down other companies. It’s very sad. (This brand is Oliveda if you’re curious).

But let’s actually bust this myth…

Water is a crucial ingredient in skincare for several reasons:

💧Hydration: Water hydrates the skin, keeping it moist and supple. Proper hydration is essential for maintaining skin health and preventing dryness and flakiness.

💧Nutrient Delivery: Water helps deliver essential nutrients to skin cells, ensuring proper functioning and overall skin health.

💧Detoxification: Water helps flush out toxins from the skin, promoting a clear complexion and reducing the risk of breakouts.

💧pH Balance: Water helps maintain the skin’s natural pH balance, which is important for healthy skin function and protection against environmental stressors.

💧Cooling Effect: Water has a cooling effect on the skin, which can help soothe irritation and inflammation.

💧Enhanced Absorption: Water-based products can be absorbed more easily into the skin, allowing for better penetration of beneficial ingredients.

Overall, water is an essential ingredient in skincare products and plays a key role in maintaining healthy, radiant skin.

I hope this post helps clear up a common misconception!

Here’s to safe, healthy skincare!

My Newest Adventure

raisingcleanLeave a comment

I still don’t know how it happened honestly…

I just wanted to feel better so I ordered some products. And I started to feel better.

I wanted to help my daughter so I gave her some and her life completely changed.

I felt pulled to share my experiences with others so I decided to grab a link to be able to do that. I never intended for it to be anything big.

Five months later I’ve been one rank below leadership for two months in a row, I’ve gotten over 80 orders totaling over $8,000, sold over 175 products, and earned more than I thought I would or even planned to, and I…

EARNED A FREE TRIP 🤯

Solving Sleep Struggles

raisingcleanLeave a comment

You guys… sleep is super important 💤✨

I listen to a podcast all about health & wellness when I’m running & just about every guest at some point speaks to the importance of getting enough, QUALITY, sleep. It is crucial for your health for a few reasons…

1. Stay Healthy 🏃‍♂️💪

Sleep helps your body repair & stay strong. It can keep your heart healthy and boost your immune system. Basically, more sleep means fewer sick days!

2. Boost Your Brainpower 🧠⚡

Your brain needs sleep to think clearly, remember stuff, & solve problems. Less sleep = more forgetful moments and brain fog.

3. Mood Magic 🌈😊

Ever notice how cranky you get when you’re tired? Sleep helps you stay happy & handle stress better. More sleep, more smiles!

4. Be a Star Performer 🌟🎯

Whether you’re studying, working, or playing sports, sleep helps you do your best. You’ll be more focused & make fewer mistakes.

5. Weight Control 🍎🏋️

Sleep affects your hunger hormones. Lack of sleep can make you crave junk food. Sleeping well helps you make healthier food choices.

6. Live Longer 🕰️❤️

Good sleep habits can add years to your life. It keeps you healthy & full of energy for the long haul.

I have some tips for better sleep for anyone who wants them! Just comment SLEEP & I’ll send them right over.

No gatekeeping here though… the absolute #1 thing that has completely changed my sleep is the half a jelly I take at night when I get in bed. I went from taking 30-60+ minutes to fall asleep & waking several times in the night to falling asleep quickly (without using Gilmore Girls or a sleep meditation) & I stay asleep ALL NIGHT! I wake up feeling refreshed & I actually have energy during the day. I can’t remember the last time I felt like that 🙌

If you want to grab these jellies, I’ll link them here -> if you take half like I do, this is a 2 month supply, & you’re getting my 20% discount + $10 off 😍➡️https://jessicaderico.greencompassglobal.com/cart/102084

No Sunday scaries over here…

raisingcleanLeave a comment

No Sunday scaries when you worked hard to bring in multiple streams of income and get to stay home with your babies all week.

⚡️ NEWS FLASH ⚡️ I’m not special and YOU can do this too.

If you continue putting it off because you are worried about how long it will take or that it won’t work at all… then you’re right, it won’t.

But you know what? It may not take as long as you think if you put your head down and work hard.

The hardest step is the first one. You have to give yourself permission to start & try something new. 🤎 Can it be hard to balance everything? Absolutely. But if I know one thing to be true it’s that busy people get the most done because they know how to work efficiently.

And honesty moment – I love my girls but having things that are just for ME that ultimately create a better life for THEM has been a literal dream come true.

😍 There are so many ways to make money online. What I find to be the most enjoyable and the most lucrative is network marketing. It’s truly a #naptimehustle for me and generates WAY more than affiliate marketing. It’s amazing that there is no ceiling on the income I earn and it’s so rewarding helping other people feel better, healthier, and more confident.

If you’d like to learn about how I make multiple streams of income from home, comment READY and I’ll send you everything you need to know (no commitment). ❤️
