Hi, I’m Sandy.

I’ve survived cancer, raised kids, navigated a house that’s suddenly quieter than it used to be, and rediscovered my competitive fire on a pickleball court.

This space — Living at Full Throttle — was born from my own journey of figuring out how to live fully, not just get through the day.

Like many women, I spent years putting others first: meals on the table, appointments scheduled, problems solved, and pieces picked up. Somewhere in the mix, I forgot what it felt like to live for me — to wake up energized, excited, and grounded in who I am now.

I created this space to share the tools, adventures, and encouragement that helped me find my way back to strength, joy, and purpose — and to offer them to you.

What You’ll Find Here:

  • Flavor: Easy, nourishing recipes that support energy, hormone balance, and joy in eating
  • Grit: Pickleball, strength, and mindset tools that help you feel powerful in your body again
  • Adventure: Done-for-you travel itineraries and inspiration to get out of your comfort zone and into your life

Whether you’re rebuilding after a hard season, chasing a long-forgotten dream, or just figuring out what’s next — you’re not alone. And you’re not done yet.

Let’s live full throttle — together.
