I’m So Proud Of You, Kelsey
Kelsey Martin absolutely crushed the Newport Half Marathon today—finishing in 1:59:29 over 13.15 miles, holding a strong 9'05 pace into a solid headwind along Ocean Drive! Kelsey has been dialed into her nutrition over the past three months, completely transforming her body into a lean, mean, running machine. What started as a goal to feel her best for her December 2025 wedding turned into a full lifestyle shift (and a spontaneous half marathon—because why not?). On top of that, Kelsey is a powerhouse realtor in Newport who just launched a team called "Twin Tides" with her twin sister—no small feat! Most mornings, you’ll find her teaching Spin, Pilates, or Body Pump before heading out to close deals. Kelsey, I’m beyond proud of you—not just for this incredible run but for the commitment, hustle, and heart you bring to everything. At the pace you’re going, girl, we might need to tailor that wedding dress down a few sizes. Let’s hear it for our Realtor to the Newport elite and bride-to-be—what a day to Dash through the Daffodils! 🌼👟💪💍
Wellness Trends You Need to Try in 2025
Cold Plunge
The Ultimate Reset for Your Body & Mind
Cold water immersion, or cold plunging, is taking over the wellness world, and for good reason. The practice involves submerging yourself in icy water—typically between 50-59°F—for a few minutes at a time. While it may sound intense, the benefits are backed by science, and athletes, biohackers, and everyday people swear by it.
Nostalgic Fragrances
Scent-Driven Wellness
Scent has a powerful effect on mood, memory, and emotions, and the latest trend is all about tapping into nostalgic fragrances to evoke comfort and happiness. Think warm vanilla, fruity body mists, and floral perfumes reminiscent of the ‘90s and early 2000s. But this isn’t just about smelling good—it’s about using scent as a wellness tool.
Red Light Therapy
The Future of Skin & Cell Health
Red light therapy (RLT) is making waves in both beauty and wellness for its ability to boost skin health, reduce inflammation, and even improve sleep. This treatment involves exposing your skin to low-wavelength red light, which penetrates deep into your cells to promote healing and regeneration.

Think Tiny, Not Titanic
Big goals may grab attention, but it's the small, consistent steps that lead to real, lasting success. Break your big dreams into manageable actions and focus on progress one step at a time. These small wins add up to big results.
Set Specific, Measurable Goals
"Get healthy" or "do better" is too vague to inspire real action. Clear, measurable goals—like walking 5,000 steps daily or drinking eight glasses of water—make it easier to track your progress and build confidence as you see results.
Celebrate Small Wins
Every step forward is worth recognizing. Reaching a milestone, no matter how small, is proof that you're moving in the right direction. Celebrating these moments keeps your motivation high and reminds you that you're capable of growth.
Action Over Perfection
Don’t wait for the perfect plan or the right time—neither will ever come. Taking even the smallest step today creates momentum, which is far more powerful than overthinking or waiting for ideal conditions. Start where you are, and adjust as you go.
