Balancing motherhood and self-care with a knee injury is not easy, but somehow I’m managing it! As a Sagittarius, I crave my self-care routine, so I take advantage of any free time I have while my baby sleeps or naps. I work out on the reformer 4-5 times a week and go for walks, but I can’t wait for my knee to heal!

My husband and I attended a beautiful brunch last month hosted by @SimplyBeverages. It really inspired us to elevate our brunch at home and, most importantly, to spend more time cooking and enjoying our new yard. Adding the refreshing and delicious taste of
Simply Orange Juice was the perfect addition☀️#SimplyPartner #brunchtime #ustime...
I love my mama and I’m honestly so proud of her! As a mom myself, I know it’s not easy to take care of kids, work, and on top of it all, have time to take care of yourself. I’m so proud of her and how she’s doing her best to care for herself.
She asked me to come up with a few quick and easy exercises that work, and these are a few of them. More to come!
Workout details:
The reps and sets are in the video. If you want to make the workout more intense, just add more reps and one additional set (for a total of 3 sets)! It might seem easy, but trust me, you’ll sweat! DM message me if you have any questions. You’ve got this!💪🏾#showupforyou
I love spring! It’s such a fun season with its in-between weather, opportunities for layering, and blooming days. Also, I love a good Spring refresh! Sharing a few of my favorite transition pieces for this spring 🌸
Outfits are from @everlane and linked on my story or via my @shop.ltk
Plus, I’m grateful for all the little moments. It was a full month for us! We celebrated my husband’s birthday and some victories, my mom visited, and we all got to spend a lot of time together. Also, Zoë is now standing and trying to walk! #grateful #family...
Happy Birthday to my best friend, my amazing husband, and Zoë and mama’s favorite man!
Not everyone gets the chance to love someone as special as you, but I’m grateful every day that I do. May this year fill your heart with joy, love, and countless new adventures. Here’s to yet another extraordinary chapter in our shared story. I love you so so much @kollbi ❤️ ❤️...
I love being her mama! Every day is a lesson in love, patience, and unimaginable strength. This journey has taught me that my heart can always hold more than I ever thought possible. 💖 From the sleepless nights to the first steps, each moment is a chapter in a story of growth and wonder. Motherhood is more than a role in my opinion; it’s a transformation, a blooming into a version of myself I never knew existed. 🌼 It’s about adapting to a new reality, where every challenge is laced with the purest form of love and every success, a shared triumph. Here’s to the beauty of being a mom, to the laughter, tears, and everything in between. To the incredible journey of self-discovery and the unbreakable bond it creates.
#MotherhoodMagic #JourneyOfLove #GrowingTogether #MomLife...
I would like to share a skincare tradition that has been passed down to me from my mother. When I was growing up, I always admired how my mother followed her beauty routine. She had a secret for maintaining healthy, glowing skin, and that was double cleansing. Even now, my mother still follows this routine, and I have made it an integral part of my skincare regimen. Double cleansing is crucial in removing sunscreen, makeup, oil, sweat, and dirt from the skin.
To add a little bit of relaxation to our busy days, I suggest using @ErnoLaszloNYC’s PHELITYL DUO. I love it because it provides a mini-spa moment in our hectic lives. Trust me; you will love it too. What’s more, Erno Laszlo skincare is suitable for all ages, making it ideal for multi-generational use. I am delighted that I can share this tradition with my mother. It’s not just about taking care of our skin; it’s also about keeping traditions alive and sharing something special across generations.
These mother-daughter moments are precious, and I treasure them all.
The peach is doing so well; she’s crawling (I mean, running) and into everything! She’s learning to stand and even taking a few solo stands and steps. She’s loving the new house, always wants to go out, and she’s so into birds; it’s so cute!
I’ve started taking Zoë to a baby class once or twice a week, and I think it’s helping with her socialization. Just being around other babies her age and parents is so good for us. I do have to make sure she’s not pulling the other babies’ hair in the class 🤣, but it’s cute and fun! I’m so proud of the sweet girl she’s becoming, and I still can’t believe she’s my baby! @zoekollbek ❤️
Hey mama, quick reminder: You’re doing an amazing job. But don’t forget to take a sec for yourself, okay? Coffee dates, bubble baths, skincare or just five minutes of peace (miracle, I know 😅). We’re rocking this motherhood gig, but hey, we gotta recharge too! Here’s to us, the fabulous chaos coordinators, remembering that self-care isn’t selfish, it’s essential. 🌟💕
#OneADayPartner Guys! I’ve exercised all my adult life, and after a few wellness faux pas, I have learned a thing or two about staying on the right track for my health and well-being! Thank you, @OneADay_US, for providing me with daily nutritional support I can feel good about and for making me feel safe to open about my past wellness mistakes and to share the healthy habits that help make me feel my best today.

Finally got my hands on the new Gold Lust Dry Heat Protection Spray from @oribe, so here is a quick date night hair transformation. I was going for a full glam hairstyle and this product was perfect for heat-styling my hair. I am absolutely in love with it! Not only does it provide 450°F heat protection, but it also repairs, conditions, and nourishes hair. I’ve noticed a significant difference in how smooth and polished my hair looks after using it. It even helps with flyaways and frizz! Also, this spray works on dry hair!!
Looking for a heat protection spray that adds sheen to your hair? Try @oribe’s Gold Lust Dry Heat Protection Spray! You won’t be disappointed.

#OneADayPartner �Confession time: Yep, I tried the celery juice cleanse multiple times, trying so hard to hit drinking only celery for a week because I was told it was good for me! But the truth is, I was so hungry and couldn’t last more than 2 days
- how can that be good for me?
Since then, I’ve stopped listening to all the wellness noise and started listening to science! Which is why I love my @OneADay_US Women’s VitaCraves® Gummies! As part of a healthy lifestyle, taking One A Day® multivitamins is another thing you can do to be your best you, designed by experts to support your health goals. So don’t listen to the noise out there. Add One A Day® to your daily routine today!

It was a month filled with so much activity in my life. I flew with my baby for the first time and introduced Zoë to my side of the family. We also began renovating our house, had date nights with my hubby, and Zoë kept us on our toes with her endless energy. On top of all that, I was busy with work and other aspects of life. Despite being the shortest month of the year, it felt like the longest in a great way. I’m grateful for everything that happened!
#GoodMeasurePartner I know that forming and keeping a wellness routine can be difficult and time-consuming. However, I have discovered that setting small goals, starting small, and committing to habits that I enjoy can be helpful in keeping me on track. Also, establishing morning habits sets me up for success throughout the day.
This year, one major habit that I am focusing on is my health and food. As you all know, blood sugar is central to everything we do. So, l have been stocking up and enjoying @goodmeasurefoods as my go-to snack. I love having convenient blood sugar-friendly snacks that fit into my wellness routine and help me prioritize keeping my blood sugar on track! The bars are also delicious!
If you are like me, trying to create a wellness routine, I recommend choosing snacks from Good Measure. Their snacks help provide our bodies with essential nutrients and have little impact on blood sugar levels. #bloodsugarfriendly #AllinGoodMeasure...
How would you rate this look on a scale of 1 to 10?
I have made the decision to dress my postpartum body with pride and wear the clothes I love, instead of waiting to lose all the weight. I have to tell you, it's become so much fun! Also, I have started to love and appreciate my body, which has given me a lot of confidence these days!
I’m taking my big girl Zoë on her first big vacation and ensuring she is comfortable and well-dressed is key! So I got her a few of my favorite styles from @carters latest spring styles. I have to say, she loves them as much as I do! Carter’s offers trendy styles at an affordable price, which is why I just love shopping here for my little fashionista.
They have a large variety of stylish options that best fit her fun and playful style. I can’t believe how cute she looks in these soft and comfortable outfits!
Also, they have up to 40% off on new spring arrivals, so go check out Carter’s! They have everything your baby needs!
These past few months have taught me the importance of being kind to my body and mind. I’ve been exploring different workouts that I truly enjoy, and Pilates has become one of my favorites. After giving birth, my doctor advised me to take it easy and make Pilates my primary exercise. I’ve been experimenting with ways to make it more exciting, and adding the jump board has made me feel like I’m flying (I’m a runner, so you know what I mean). Trust me, this is a challenging and enjoyable workout!
This year, I want to share some ways to be gentle and kind to our bodies by doing workouts that are easy on them. Here are six reasons why I love practicing Pilates and why I decided to invest in a home reformer!
1: Pilates is a full and challenging workout, don’t let anyone tell you otherwise
2: It Prevents Injury. I practice before, during and after my pregnancy and it was perfect for my body.
3: Enhances Your Mind and Body Awareness.
4: Creates a Balance of Strength and Flexibility.
5: Relieves Stress.
6: It Builds Up Your Energy! What I need all day long with Zoë 🤣
I don't know who this message is for, but I've been there and I know how it feels. Please don't give up on love. Your true love is out there, and the universe is on your side!
PS: We dressed up for Valentine's Day date and brought Zoë along!🥹
Happy Valentine's Day, my loves.
From the Kollbeks ❤️
Glass skin is a popular trend that many people love, although not everyone has the time for an 11-step skincare routine( I don’t hahaha) However, it is still possible to achieve a super dewy, smooth, and hydrated look using fewer products. Here are my favorite products for achieving a glass skin look that’s safe for both mama and oily skin.
In her eyes, I see the strength of her great-grandma, the kindness of her grandma, and the dreams I have for her. Four generations of love, all in one little miracle. We’re not just family; we’re a legacy of love and kindness.
Also, Happy Black History Month. Thanks toy grandmother to blessing us with more of our family history this week!
Wow, I must admit, this past month has been extremely busy, but also very fulfilling. As a wife, mother, and homeowner, everything happened so quickly that some days I forget what day it is! I still can’t believe that we bought a house and moved in all in the same month. I am incredibly grateful for all the little and big achievements that the universe has blessed us with. The most important lesson I have learned this January is to prioritize my responsibilities, cherish the little moments in my everyday busy life, and be present in the moment. I genuinely love this new little life that I have created for myself and my family. #grateful #newhome...
Amidst the chaos, it’s important to keep your relationship strong by setting aside time for each other, going on dates, and being cheesy together!
Love you @kollbi 🥹❤️
I’m still in disbelief that companies like @roadwaymoving exist to provide such great assistance.Taking care of a baby is not an easy job, and packing up an entire house and moving in a short amount of time added to my stress for sure. However, @roadwaymoving and the entire team completely changed my perspective on moving!
I am incredibly grateful for their fast, efficient, and painless service, as well as their kindness! I wholeheartedly recommend @roadwaymoving and their team, and if you use my code ‘deddehhoward10 they will be at your door in no time!...
Zoë update:
I mean, it’s getting so real with her. She’s fully eating solids now and even has a favorite meal that mama cooks for her. Her big personality is really showing - she lets us know if she likes or dislikes something, and it’s actually kind of cute! She’s able to sit on her own now (although she prefers to be walking or running, haha) and she’s still the cutest, happiest little human I know. She loves books and being around people (as long as mama is around too, of course).

It has been a long and winding journey to get here, and I am still in disbelief as I write this. Michal and I moved to Los Angeles 15 years ago from different parts of the world with nothing- no family or friends, and found each other on a dating app( Thank you, Hinge). From the moment we met, we knew that we were meant to be together! To love like crazy, to change each other’s lives, to move mountains, and make dreams come true. Today, it’s just the beginning!
I hope you’re ready for a lot of house renovations! Sorry, Michal, I’ll go easy on the changes 😂🔑

This year, I’m focusing on setting more reasonable resolutions and avoiding the pursuit of unattainable perfection. Instead of striving to become "the best me", I’m prioritizing self-care in all aspects of my life.
Here are the top 5 ways I have been showing up for myself and sticking to my New Year's resolution:
1. Taking regular breaks
2. Unplugging after dinner each night
3. Writing in a gratitude journal
4. Dancing with abandon
5. Saying "no" when necessary
I believe that small acts of self-care are essential to keep us motivated and moving forward, even when we feel like giving up. Let's keep pushing forward and show ourselves the care and attention we deserve. 💪🏾
Now that I’m back to exercising regularly this year, I want to improve my water intake with the help of the #NinjaThirsti Drink System! I’m on my way to my goal! PS: Hubby is obsessed, too! So, if you’re looking for the latest health and wellness tech, check out @BestBuy now!
This picture of me represents the Growth, the New Me, 2023, and the many new things that happened to me this year. It's the year I grew the most in such a short time. Both mentally and physically. It was one of the happiest years but also so intense and hard on both me and my family. Honestly, I’m so proud of this version of me, the very grown-up Me, the mom, wife, lover, daughter, friend, and more. She is stronger, still a crazy dreamer, and still knows how to have fun, but most importantly, she's deep into her feelings and more in touch with her mind, body, and the world around her. I’m so ready and looking forward to 2024! Thank you, guys, for all the love and support you have shown me and my family!
So many of you have watched me grow into the woman I AM today, and I’m so grateful for this community! Thanks for allowing me to grow and share my life with you! Wishing you all the best in 2024! We got this!💪🏾
1, 2, or 3? Which look should I wear tomorrow for our family holiday photo shoot?
Family of 3 this year + Iman! Wow! So grateful. I couldn't decide what to wear, so I did a little try-on for you guys to help me. I’m thinking sexy mama + classy!
Do you guys like any of these dresses for the shoot? Thanks for your help!💚
I told my husband this only took me 5 minutes, and he didn’t believe me, but the truth is, it only takes me 5 minutes these days to do my make-up, and I have gotten so used to being in a hurry + getting things done fast in 5 months! Having a baby will do that to you for sure 🤣

I’m holding my greatest birthday blessing in my arms today, and I’m happy and so grateful.
Last year, I prayed so hard for a baby for my birthday. I was eight weeks pregnant with Zoë on this day in Bali, and today, I woke up to this beautiful, healthy, bright and so happy baby girl, just like her daddy!🥹
It's all I wanted!
Also, thanks for always making me feel so loved and special @kollbi! Last night was epic! Love you ❤️
Let’s GET REAL for a second. Motherhood is such a beautiful journey; it’s honestly all the feels, but it is not easy at all. I sometimes find myself trying to be perfect at everything, from caring for my little girl to caring for my mind and body, but the truth is, we don't have to be perfect at it all! We must embrace 100% realness in our lives and do our best!
I partnered with @gotmilk to share how I stay my authentic self while being a new mom and caring for my mind and body, which is finding my inner strength through the practice of yoga, staying active, and the nourishment of real milk. Each pose, each sip, is a reminder of the power of authenticity. Real milk not only supports my immune system, helping me stay strong for my baby and me, but its proteins aid my recovery, allowing me to push my limits and embrace life to the fullest, and I don't have to be perfect at it! Join me on this journey of self-discovery and genuine living. Let's toast to realness, resilience, and the beauty of being true to ourselves. 🌟🥛

In the whirlwind of parenthood, @masimo_stork helps make those moments better. Our Stork Boot, delicately cradling our baby’s foot, dives deep into her well-being, tracking pulse rate, oxygen saturation, and skin temperature. It’s more than just technology; it’s a touch of reassurance and gives me confidence while I transition Zoë to sleeping in her crib.
And when you yearn for a glimpse into their nursery, our Stork Camera reveals every detail with clarity, day or night. It lets me speak to my baby and stay on top of her comfort with room temperature and humidity tracking and alerts no matter where I am. I love playing music for her from the app!
It’s not just about knowledge; it’s about connection. It’s about feeling close, even when you’re apart. @masimo_stork helps savor every precious moment of this incredible journey, and I wanted to share!
