#BauschLombPaidPartner It’s time to get serious about eye health. For years, I struggled – constantly taking breaks between emails and video calls because my eyes felt tired, scratchy and watery. What I didn’t realize then was that I had dry eye, which I only learned once my symptoms worsened, and I visited my eye doctor.

Dry eye looks different for everyone, so it’s important to talk to an eye doctor if you’re experiencing symptoms. They can help find the best relief option for you – from over-the-counter options to prescription treatments. Thanks to lifestyle changes and ongoing conversations with my eye doctor, I’m now managing my symptoms without making sacrifices in my life! And you can too.

This #DryEyeAwareness month, join me and @bauschlomb in spreading awareness. Visit KnowYourDryEye.com to learn more and submit your story.

LEG’S Talk! Part 1 🦵🏼

I’m breaking it down on what I had done to my legs a few months back with @nycplasticsdoc. I’ve always been self conscious of the cellulite on the back of my legs and tried temporary procedures to make it look better, but at the end of the day I wanted something permanent. Between Aveli, Body Tight, and a tiny bit of Liposuction, I cannot get over the results! Here’s part 1 of my procedure and will share the before and afters in Part 2!

My heart breaks for everyone affected. If you’re looking for ways to help, consider donating to local relief funds, supporting organizations like Central Texas Food bank, Red Cross, Convoy of Hope.

Back by popular demand, and I made these last night for a BBQ I hosted! A few of you suggested adding cilantro, chives, or dill to this as well. I added dill to the mixture last night and topped with chives and it turned out great! These are super easy and perfect add-one for your BBq today! Happy 4th friends!

#SponsoredByGSK As we help get Ryder ready for college and close out his high school chapter, I’ve been trying to prioritize meaningful time together—and the important conversations that come with it.

We recently sat down to watch Pretty Hurts; a Lifetime Original Movie brought to you by GSK. The film shows just how quickly life can change when meningococcal disease, also known as meningitis, strikes close to home. And, while it’s uncommon, it’s a serious illness, of which teens and young adults ages 16- to 23- years old are one of the age groups at increased risk.

This one really resonated with me. I walked away empowered to ask questions with Ryder’s doctor, and best of all, we got to spend quality time together.

Parents, please @Ask2BSure. Talk to your teen’s doctor about meningitis risk and vaccination. You can stream Pretty Hurts now at MyLifetime.com/movies/Pretty-Hurts.

Giving you 5 reasons to go on a girls trip to @fairmontmayakoba because it was just too good 🌊🐠☀️🕶️

Pool/beach – Spend your days lounging on powdery white sand or in a cabana poolside catching up with your best friends under the Mexican sun.

The Spa – Indulge in luxurious treatments at the spa, the perfect way to unwind, recharge, and feel your absolute best. I had a 90 minute cocoa wrap and massage and it was pure bliss!

The Food – From fresh ceviche by the beach to elegant dinners overlooking the lagoon, every meal is a celebration of flavors you’ll be talking about for weeks.

Nonstop Laughs – Whether it’s sipping cocktails by the pool, late night chats on your terrace, every moment is filled with joy and connection.

Endless Activities – From biking through lush paths to paddle boarding, cenote visits, yoga and exploring nearby Playa del Carmen, there’s no shortage of adventure for your besties!

#SponsoredByDisney To celebrate a successful school year, we planned a full Disney on Broadway magical itinerary. @disneyonbroadway! First we headed up to Times Square, taking the subway is an experience in itself. We stopped at the Museum of Broadway and then we headed to @thelionking. We loved this show so much, the music and costumes are always so iconic! After the show, we made our way to the Disney store and then the TKTS red steps to take in the lights of Times Square. If you’re in the city and need a magical activity, head to the link in my bio to get tickets for The Lion King on Broadway!

Looking for a NYC beach staycation?! 🌊☀️Last week, the girls and I boarded the #NYC Ferry from Wall Street and arrived at @therockawayhotel. The hotel was such a vibe—and we had the most amazing bungalow suite. We spent the next two days between the beach and pool, had dinner on the rooftop and caught the most gorgeous sunset. It was truly the most perfect NYC beach staycation and I highly recommend you add this to your bucket list this summer!
