Choosing a nut butter is about more than figuring out what tastes good. It’s not a small portion of a single meal every week or so. It’s not a decoration on your counter top because the label is pretty. It’s not a conversation starter. It’s a lifestyle choice.
There are different phases to a person’s life. You move out on your own, and you start to learn more about what you actually like. Music preference, personal style, how you want to spend your free time, what your favorite adult beverage is, how to cook, what you look for in a partner – all things you begin to develop and shape when you start a life of your own.
Finally, you begin to find direction. You point your inner compass towards the things that make you feel the most fulfilled, the most alive. You grow out of friendships that weighed you down, relationships that made you feel unworthy, jobs that made you dread Monday morning, a day-to-day life that left you unhappy with who you are, and eating habits that were unhealthy. You shed the old like a cocoon, and you break free into this incredibly powerful new person.
A jar of Maisie Jane’s nut butter doesn’t make you these things. It won’t change your status in society. It won’t make your Ex want you back. It’s not going to get you that promotion or give you a great hair day and minimal under-eye bags. It’s not a miracle product. But it is a symbol. A choice. A way of life.
A slab of nut butter with your breakfast in the morning signifies the desire for a breakfast high in protein and natural energizers for your body because you need that energy to power through your busy morning.
A lunchtime salad with salad dressing made from Maisie Jane’s almond butter is a reminder halfway through your day that each moment you’re consciously choosing to work to be better. Each bite is a gentle acknowledgment that you’re in competition with yourself, and you’ll keep working hard to top who you were yesterday. You’re not slowing down. You’re going to finish your work day just as strong as you started it.
When you host a small dinner party with friends and use a cashew butter in your homemade Pad Thai sauce, you’re showing them how these small steps can be done. You’re showing them how easy it is to live a healthier lifestyle. You’re the example. The leader.
You end your day rewarding yourself with Almond Butter Coconut Truffle No-Bake Cookies for dessert or frozen bananas drizzled with Chocolate Cashew Butter, and you think to yourself, “I deserve this!” And you do.
Amazing, isn’t it? A small change in your daily activities can help motivate you to push yourself harder. Sort of like a new pair of running shoes makes you want to test out mileage. Or a gym membership makes you want to try lifting weights and dabble in Spinning. A tiny shift in the way you live your life can inspire you to make more tiny shifts, test more new things, eventually leading to a routine that makes you feel unstoppable.
Stop teetering on the edge wondering when your time will come. Your life isn’t dependent on someone else making the decision for you. Give yourself permission to take the reins. You have the right to a choice in who you want to be. You have options in this endeavor. Support for your dreams in the form of self-validation. It’s up to YOU to inch your way up this mountain, strengthening your legs and heart in the journey. You don’t need to leap.
You dedicate more energy to taking care of yourself; less time counting calories. Each morning the sun rises and you rise with it. Even on days when you crawl out of bed, you still manage to lace up your running shoes and spend some time with your feet pounding the pavement. Sunrises and sunsets become the highlight of your day. Wine is the new martini. Cheese, crackers, fruit, and nuts are the new bar food, and nut butters are your new go-to.
