Kat and I have been friends since high school and when she started her own functional medicine practice, I immediately started hounding her with questions, seeing her to dive deeper into my own health issues. She is such a delight and truly a wealth of knowledge. She is actually the one who got be on board with DoTERRA. If you’re in the Charlotte area, or even if you’re not, give her a follow.

Hayley and I became Instagram friends because so many of my friends see her for chiropractic services. I still haven’t gotten my act together to go get adjusted, but that will come soon :) Hayley is actually the one who got me started with Green Compass. Give her a follow.

Mariana is my neighbor and friend turned doula when I became pregnant with CC. Seriously could not have gotten through birth prep/birth itself without her, especially after the health issues I had towards the end of my pregnancy. She helped me advocate for the kind of experience I wanted and helped ensure me and CC were safe and healthy. All the WTB ladies are fabulous, I’m just a little biased ;). Go give them a shout on Insta.

Sloan and I have been friends since college and there was a chance we were going to be roomies after college when we were moving up to DC. Sadly, she did not move to DC post-grad. She was a college athlete so health and fitness have always been top of mind for her. Her recipes are TO DIE FOR and bonus that she’s a Beauty Counter Advocate (which is one of my favorite places for clean beauty products). Give her a follow and shop with her! :)

Food Babe is another Charlotte gal that I started following a few years ago to get inspo for some healthier meals. What I love is that she shares easy swaps and is so educational! I share her stuff on my account all the time because there is just so much about the food industry in America that you don’t hear about and it’s truly SHOCKING what is in our food. Give her a follow and buy her cookbook. You won’t regret it!

Just Ingredients is another account I’ve been following on Instagram for a while and her information is SO informative and helpful. Also, her personal story that led her to doing this kind of work is truly incredible and such an inspiration. You’ll see me share a lot of her stuff on both of my accounts. Give her a follow and check out her website for recommended products, including some of her companies’ own products.

Another great Instagram account (NC based too!) I’ve been following for a bit. He recommends great swaps, ingredients to avoid, good brands, and sales at store you probably already shop at. His podcast is also super educational. Give him a follow to learn more!
