Lean Into Your Cravings (the Healthy Way)

Hi Thrive Fam,

Let’s be honest—we all get cravings. For me, it’s sweets. I have a massive sweet tooth. But here’s the thing: instead of letting cravings sneak up and knock me off track, I take control of them.

👉 I lean into my cravings—but with a healthy twist.

This way, I still enjoy the treats I love, but I make sure the ingredients are ones I can trust and that support my health instead of working against it. The key is to plan for your cravings instead of fighting them.

Here’s how I do it:

• Sub out butter for healthier fats like avocado or olive oil.

• Ditch granulated sugar forever—seriously, don’t even keep it in the house. Instead, swap it with coconut palm sugar, raw honey, or pure maple syrup.

• Trade white flour for nutrient-packed options like whole wheat, almond flour, coconut flour, or oatmeal flour.

The result? Sweet treats that hit the spot and keep me feeling energized, not sluggish.

✨ Here are a couple of my go-to recipes for healthier sweets (link or paste recipes here).

Remember—your health is a priority, and cravings don’t have to derail you. You can enjoy them, guilt-free, when you put your own smart twist on them.

Stay sweet,
Brittany
