Trendsetters Feature // Founder Summer Sanders
I typically wake up before the kids and head right into some form of breathwork or meditation, I make protein pancakes for my son almost every morning (my recipe is in my new book Love Your Body, Feed Your Soul, my baby girl wakes up earlier than my son so we have some sweet playtime and nursing before he wakes. Mornings are usually a little rushed, we seem to always be late to school. Typically I have a tonic latte or superfood smoothie in my cup on the way to school drop off, they always include one of our superfood powders, my current favorite is Glow Power, it’s the best for glowing radiant skin. I use it daily.
Once Henry is at school I head to either our Sedona or Flagstaff locations to check in with the team (Willow, our baby, comes with me everywhere) and grab a salad and juice for lunch later in the day.
I usually spend the afternoons catching up on emails, working on our new café concept Wildcraft Kitchen, brainstorming with our team on new ideas, working with our designers, and playing with Willow. There’s lots of breastfeeding, and chasing her around, she just started crawling at 5 ½ months and I’m pretty sure my work life is over! I usually have some chocolate mid-day and a salad from Local. My favorite is our Cleansing Kale Salad, paired with a Goddess Greens juice.
Once my husband is home, I usually go to the gym, then come home and make dinner, which right now is typically a warming soup with lots of greens and some quinoa. After dinner, my husband and I take turns doing “special time” with our son. This is where he gets 15 minutes of dedicated time from each of us to do whatever (within reason). Usually, pillow fights with dad and book reading with mom. This has been so helpful with the new baby coming, I feel like it’s kept him feeling important during a rocky time.
After the kids are down, we usually hang out and just talk over some tea, then I read for a little bit before my eyes
