There are certain thresholds in life that ask for our full attention.
Moments when the energy around us shifts, when nature itself holds up a mirror and whispers:
"It’s time."
"It’s time."
The Summer Solstice is one of those moments.
It is not just the longest day of the year.
It is a sacred portal.
It is a sacred portal.
A time when the Earth stands in full illumination — alive, expansive, radiant.
And it is the perfect time to begin your healing journey.
Today, I want to share why aligning your personal transformation with the Summer Solstice is not just symbolic — it is strategic, powerful, and deeply supportive for the woman you are becoming.
If you have been waiting for the right time to commit to yourself...
This is it.
The Energetic Power of the Summer Solstice
The Summer Solstice marks the peak of the light cycle in the Northern Hemisphere.
It is the day with the most sunlight, the fullest expression of growth, visibility, and vitality.
Throughout history, cultures around the world have celebrated the Solstice as a time of:
- Illumination: Seeing clearly what is ready to grow — and what must be released.
- Empowerment: Stepping fully into one’s purpose, strength, and radiance.
- Celebration: Honoring the fruits of what has been planted and nurtured.
- Renewal: Realigning with what matters most before the slower, introspective months return.
In nature, everything is alive, blooming, and stretching toward the sun.
When you begin your healing journey at the Solstice, you are not just making a personal decision.
You are stepping into an ancient rhythm of expansion, transformation, and sacred becoming.
You are saying, "I am ready to be fully alive."
Why Timing Matters for Healing
Healing is not just about what you do.
It is also about when you do it.
It is also about when you do it.
Just like planting seeds during a full frost will limit growth, trying to launch into transformation when your body, mind, or spirit are depleted can feel like an uphill battle.
But when you align with cycles of natural vitality — when the world around you is bursting with energy, light, and possibility — you tap into a deeper reservoir of support.
The Summer Solstice offers:
- An energetic surge that supports clarity, momentum, and breakthroughs.
- A symbolic clean slate to release old patterns and consciously choose new ways of living.
- Natural motivation as longer daylight hours support mood, energy, and action-taking.
- Sacred reflection on where you have been and where you are ready to go.
In short — beginning now means you are planting your healing journey into the richest soil available.
And what you plant now will shape the next season of your life.
What Happens When Women Align with Natural Cycles
One of the most damaging myths modern society teaches women is that we are supposed to perform at the same level, with the same energy, every day of the year.
But the truth is, women are cyclical beings.
Our bodies, minds, and emotions are influenced by monthly, seasonal, and life-stage rhythms.
When you ignore those cycles, you feel exhausted, burnt out, and disconnected.
When you honor them, you feel alive, powerful, and resilient.
The Women's Holistic Health Coaching and Mentorshipprogram is built around this philosophy.
We do not fight your cycles.
We honor them.
We honor them.
- We teach you how to eat in rhythm with the seasons.
- We show you how to move, rest, and live according to your body's changing needs.
- We help you create rituals and habits that support sustainable energy, hormonal balance, and emotional resilience.
Starting this journey at the Summer Solstice allows you to embody the sacred art of living in rhythm — right from the beginning.
Healing Is About More Than Symptoms
You may have come here because of brain fog, fatigue, hormonal imbalances, or emotional overwhelm.
And yes, we will address those very real challenges.
But true healing — the kind that changes you from the inside out — is about so much more.
It is about:
- Remembering who you are beyond the roles you play.
- Reclaiming the clarity and energy that is your natural birthright.
- Restoring trust in your body’s wisdom.
- Reconnecting to the joy, passion, and purpose that have always lived inside you.
The symptoms are not the enemy.
They are the invitation.
The real journey is about becoming the woman you were always meant to be.

Your next chapter is ready to be written.
And it is more luminous than you can imagine.
Have you ever felt like something was missing in your relationship with your body or your pleasure—but couldn’t quite put your finger on it?
You’re not alone.
In our latest episode of The Wild Sage Society Podcast, I sat down with the brilliant and compassionate Dr. Tina Schermer Sellers, renowned sex therapist, researcher, and author of Sex, God, and the Conservative Church and Shameless Parenting. Together, we peeled back the layers of silence, shame, and cultural conditioning to explore what it really means to live with embodied confidence, sensual wholeness, and radical self-worth—especially in midlife.
The Hidden Impact of Sexual Shame
Dr. Sellers opened our eyes to a profound truth: sexual shame is a visceral experience that lives in the body, not just the mind. For many of us, this shame started early—through silence, confusion, or punitive reactions to our natural curiosities as children.
“We are hardwired for connection and pleasure,” she said. “But when those needs are shamed, we internalize a belief that something is wrong with us.”
The result? Disconnection. From ourselves. From our desires. From the deep emotional and physical intimacy we all deserve.
Why Midlife is a Portal to Reclamation
Dr. Sellers believes midlife is not a crisis—i t’s an invitation. An invitation to reflect, reconnect, and reclaim the parts of ourselves that were buried under people-pleasing, performance, and patriarchal programming.
Whether you’re experiencing shifts in libido, navigating menopause, or finally confronting long-held wounds, this season of life offers a sacred opportunity to rewrite your story.
“Your power is in your pleasure,” she reminded us. “Your pleasure can heal you.”
Healing Begins with Emotional Safety
So how do we begin?
Dr. Sellers lays out a powerful four-step model for healing called FRAME:
- Frame: Re-educate yourself with comprehensive, affirming, sex-positive information.
- Name: Share your story with someone who can meet you with empathy.
- Claim: Reconnect with your body as good, just as it is—no changes required.
- Aim: Decide how you want to live and love moving forward.
This framework isn't just about sexuality—it's a call to return home to your truth, wholeness, and worthiness.
From Performative Sex to Sacred Intimacy
Dr. Sellers also unpacked the difference between performative sex (what culture teaches us) and true intimacy (what we actually crave). Through emotionally intelligent communication, couples can co-create experiences that feel nourishing, playful, and connected—whether that’s a sensual bath, a cuddle session, or full-on passion.
We’re not talking Cosmo tips. We’re talking soulful, attuned, healing intimacy.
What If Your Sexuality Was Sacred?
Whether you were raised in silence, shame, or a culture that told you your pleasure was dangerous, this conversation is a balm and a breakthrough.
You are not broken.
You are not too much.
You are not too late.
You are worthy of love, connection, and radiant pleasure—right here, right now, in the body you live in today.

You are not here to battle your body.
You are not here to chase rigid diets or punish yourself into "health."
You are not here to chase rigid diets or punish yourself into "health."
You are here to remember that nourishment is sacred.
That your body is wise.
That your body is wise.
That healing is about honoring, not controlling.
For women in midlife, this is one of the most radical shifts we can make — to stop waging war against ourselves and start cultivating a partnership.
A partnership built on listening, on rhythm, on trust.
Today, let’s explore how true nourishment can heal your mind, body, and spirit — and how you can begin right now, without adding more overwhelm to your plate.
Why Typical "Health Plans" Fail Women in Midlife
If you have tried strict diets, punishing exercise regimens, or endless supplements and still feel exhausted, foggy, or disconnected, you are not doing anything wrong.
The problem is that most health advice does not take into account the profound hormonal, neurological, and energetic shifts that happen during midlife.
Most plans were not built for the changing rhythms of a woman navigating perimenopause, menopause, or post-menopause.
They assume you should be able to eat, move, and live exactly as you did at twenty-five — ignoring the deeper cycles that now govern your health and vitality.
What you need is not more rigidity.
What you need is alignment.
Alignment with your body's natural rhythms.
Alignment with the seasons.
Alignment with the deeper wisdom within you that already knows how to heal.
Alignment with the seasons.
Alignment with the deeper wisdom within you that already knows how to heal.
This is the heart of what we practice inside the Women's Holistic Health Coaching and Mentorship program.
What Nourishment Really Means at This Stage of Life
Nourishment in midlife is not just about food.
It is about what you take in on every level.
- The thoughts you feed your mind.
- The emotions you allow to move through your heart.
- The people and environments you allow to shape your energy.
- The ways you rest, move, and express your body.
Nourishment becomes a lifestyle — a way of being rooted in honoring your needs moment to moment.
When you approach nourishment from this holistic perspective, your body stops fighting.
It begins to soften, open, and heal.
You are not fighting yourself anymore.
You are walking with yourself.
You are walking with yourself.
And that changes everything.
The Power of Seasonal and Cyclical Eating
One of the simplest and most powerful ways to nourish your body in midlife is by aligning with the natural cycles of the Earth — and your own internal cycles.
This is called seasonal and cyclical eating.
Here is why it matters:
- Seasonal Eating: Eating foods that naturally grow during each season gives your body exactly the nutrients it needs at that time. Spring greens support detoxification. Summer fruits hydrate and cool. Autumn root vegetables ground and stabilize. Winter broths nourish and build warmth.
- Cyclical Eating: If you are still cycling, adjusting your food choices to support the different phases of your menstrual cycle can dramatically impact energy, mood, and hormone balance. Even if you are no longer cycling, honoring the lunar phases can provide similar energetic support.
Your body is not a machine that thrives on the same inputs all year long.
It is a dynamic, living system that responds to light, temperature, energy availability, and emotional tides.
By eating in rhythm with nature, you return your body to a state of harmony.
You reduce inflammation, balance blood sugar, support hormone detoxification, and improve digestion.
You reduce inflammation, balance blood sugar, support hormone detoxification, and improve digestion.
And perhaps most importantly — you reconnect with a sense of belonging to something greater than yourself.
You remember you are part of the natural world.
Not separate from it.
Not fighting it.
Part of it.
Not fighting it.
Part of it.
Intuitive and Mindful Eating Practices
Along with seasonal and cyclical eating, there are simple practices that can radically shift how your body receives nourishment:
- Proper Chewing and Savoring
Digestion begins in the mouth.
Chewing thoroughly signals the rest of your digestive system to prepare enzymes, bile, and movement.
Savoring your food — truly tasting and enjoying it — enhances nutrient absorption and satisfaction.
- Listening to Hunger and Fullness Cues
Many women lose touch with their body’s signals after years of dieting or stress eating. Practicing pausing before and during meals to ask, "Am I still hungry?" or "Am I full?" can rebuild this connection.
- Gratitude Rituals
Taking a moment before eating to express gratitude for your food shifts your body into a parasympathetic (rest-and-digest) state, improving digestion and nutrient uptake.
- Eating with Presence
Turning off screens, sitting down, and giving your meal your full attention helps regulate blood sugar, improve digestion, and increase satisfaction. When you eat mindfully, your body feels safe.
And a body that feels safe heals faster and more deeply.
How Your Body’s Needs Change in Midlife
In midlife, your body’s needs shift in specific ways:
- You require more high-quality protein to maintain muscle mass and hormone production.
- You need more anti-inflammatory foods to balance the effects of hormonal changes.
- Your digestive fire may weaken, requiring more cooked, easy-to-digest meals instead of raw, heavy foods.
- You may need specific minerals (like magnesium, potassium, and zinc) to support brain health, sleep, and hormonal stability.
Inside the Women’s Holistic Health Coaching and Mentorship, we guide you through adjusting your food choices — gently, intuitively, sustainably — so you nourish yourself from the inside out.
No rigid rules.
No calorie counting.
No guilt.
No calorie counting.
No guilt.
Just a deep partnership with your body’s evolving needs.
Emotional Nourishment: The Missing Piece
Food alone will not heal what emotional depletion has created.
Midlife is often a time of deep emotional processing:
- Grief for roles and identities you are shedding.
- Anger at societal expectations you are releasing.
- Yearning for meaning, creativity, and authentic connection.
If you are not emotionally nourished, no supplement or smoothie will fill that void.
This is why the Mentorship integrates emotional resilience practices — breathwork, nervous system regulation, hypnotherapy, and Sacred Feminine work — alongside nutritional guidance.
Because your spirit needs nourishment too.
Your heart needs nourishment.
Your dreams need nourishment.
Your heart needs nourishment.
Your dreams need nourishment.
And when they are fed, your body follows.

Why This Matters Now More Than Ever
The world often teaches women to disconnect from themselves.
To override their intuition.
To judge and control their bodies rather than honor and nourish them.
To override their intuition.
To judge and control their bodies rather than honor and nourish them.
But your midlife years are too sacred to be spent fighting yourself.
It is time to reclaim the truth:
You are not broken.
You are transforming.
You are not broken.
You are transforming.
And nourishment — true, holistic nourishment — is the foundation that will carry you into your most vibrant, powerful chapter yet.

If you are waking up tired, reaching for another coffee at 3 p.m., and wondering why your mind feels foggy even after a full night’s sleep, you are not alone.
For many women navigating midlife, the experience of feeling "off" — mentally, physically, and emotionally — becomes a daily battle.
You may have been told it is just stress.
You may have been told it is just aging.
You may have even started to wonder if this is simply how life will feel from now on.
You may have been told it is just stress.
You may have been told it is just aging.
You may have even started to wonder if this is simply how life will feel from now on.
But there is a deeper truth.
Brain fog, exhaustion, and feeling disconnected are not random or inevitable.
They are signals.
They are signals.
Signals from your body asking you to pay attention.
Signals that there is a different, more holistic way forward.
Signals that there is a different, more holistic way forward.
Today, let’s unpack why you are feeling this way — and most importantly, how you can begin to reclaim your clarity, energy, and connection with yourself again.
What Is Really Behind the Brain Fog?
Brain fog is often described as feeling mentally slow, confused, forgetful, or just "not sharp."
Tasks that once felt easy — recalling words, staying organized, concentrating on conversations — now feel like heavy lifting.
Tasks that once felt easy — recalling words, staying organized, concentrating on conversations — now feel like heavy lifting.
The reasons for brain fog during midlife are multi-layered, but here are the most common contributors:
- Hormonal Shifts: As estrogen, progesterone, and other key hormones fluctuate, they impact neurotransmitters responsible for memory, mood, and mental sharpness.
- Chronic Stress: Elevated cortisol levels from years (or decades) of pushing through life’s demands deplete your brain’s resilience.
- Nutrient Deficiencies: Midlife changes digestion and nutrient absorption. Deficiencies in B vitamins, omega-3 fatty acids, magnesium, and other key nutrients are common.
- Poor Sleep Quality: Hormonal shifts impact sleep cycles, leading to fragmented, non-restorative sleep that sabotages mental clarity.
- Toxin Exposure: Everyday exposure to pesticides, endocrine disruptors, heavy metals, and EMFs compounds inflammation and cognitive fatigue.
- Unaddressed Inflammation: Chronic low-grade inflammation, often rooted in gut health or hidden infections, quietly undermines brain function.
- Lifestyle Patterns: Irregular eating, over-reliance on caffeine, excessive screen time, and a sedentary lifestyle drain the brain’s reserves over time.
If you see yourself in this list, know this:
It is not just "in your head."
It is not just about willpower.
And it is not permanent.
It is not just "in your head."
It is not just about willpower.
And it is not permanent.
You can heal your brain and rebuild your energy — with the right tools and support.
Why Conventional Approaches Fall Short
Many women seek help when brain fog and exhaustion become overwhelming.
Unfortunately, the conventional model often offers surface-level solutions:
- Antidepressants for mood shifts.
- Stimulants for fatigue.
- Sleep aids for insomnia.
- Strict diets for weight gain.
These strategies may offer temporary relief but often miss the larger picture.
They do not address the root causes — the complex interplay between your hormones, nervous system, digestion, energy metabolism, and emotional well-being.
They do not address the root causes — the complex interplay between your hormones, nervous system, digestion, energy metabolism, and emotional well-being.
That is why a holistic approach is not only helpful — it is essential.
A Holistic Path Forward
Inside the Women’s Holistic Health Coaching and Mentorship program, we address brain fog, fatigue, and disconnection using an integrated framework called BRAIN | FOCUS.
This approach combines:
- Nutrition for Brain Health: Targeted strategies to replenish nutrients critical for cognitive function, hormone balance, and nervous system resilience.
- Mindfulness and Nervous System Regulation: Tools to reduce chronic stress, calm the body’s fight-or-flight response, and promote restorative healing.
- Hypnosis and Subconscious Repatterning: Gentle practices to shift limiting beliefs and emotional patterns that sabotage energy and focus.
- Lifestyle Optimization: Rebuilding daily rhythms — sleep, movement, digital detoxes, mindful eating — to restore mental clarity and physical vitality.
This is not about adding more to your plate.
It is about creating space, flow, and sustainable healing.
It is about creating space, flow, and sustainable healing.
You are not meant to push harder.
You are meant to heal smarter.
You are meant to heal smarter.
Simple Shifts You Can Start Today
While deep healing requires a comprehensive approach, there are steps you can start implementing right now to support your brain and body.
- Prioritize Sleep Rhythm Over Sleep Quantity
Instead of focusing solely on hours, prioritize consistency.
Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day, even on weekends.
Support melatonin production by reducing blue light exposure after sunset.
Create a wind-down ritual that signals safety and relaxation to your nervous system.
- Eat to Balance Blood Sugar
Blood sugar swings are one of the most overlooked causes of brain fog.
Begin your day with a protein-rich breakfast.
Include healthy fats (like avocado, olive oil, nuts) and fiber at every meal.
Minimize processed sugars and refined carbs that spike insulin and lead to energy crashes.
- Hydrate for Brain Function
Even mild dehydration impacts cognitive performance.
Aim for at least half your body weight in ounces of filtered water daily.
Add electrolytes or a pinch of sea salt to your water if you are feeling depleted.
- Move Your Body to Move Your Mind
Physical movement increases blood flow, oxygenation, and nutrient delivery to the brain.
This does not require a punishing workout.
A daily walk outside, gentle yoga, or even dancing in your living room can revitalize both brain and body.
- Nourish Your Emotional Life
Unprocessed emotions, chronic overthinking, and isolation drain cognitive resources.
Practice daily check-ins with yourself.
Ask, "What do I need right now?"
Prioritize connection, creativity, and moments of presence.
Healing is not about doing everything perfectly.
It is about shifting your relationship with your own body and needs.
The Deeper Invitation: Healing as a Sacred Journey
Brain fog is not just a biological event.
It is often an energetic invitation.
It is often an energetic invitation.
When your mind feels cloudy, when your body feels heavy, it is your system’s way of asking:
"Are you willing to care for me differently?"
"Are you willing to care for me differently?"
Healing is not about fighting your body into submission.
It is about listening to its wisdom, honoring its needs, and aligning your life to support your highest well-being.
It is about listening to its wisdom, honoring its needs, and aligning your life to support your highest well-being.
This is the foundation of the Women’s Holistic Health Coaching and Mentorship program.

In a world that often glorifies hustle culture and quick wins, Brandi Anderson offers a refreshing perspective: build your business from the heart.
In Season 2, Episode 13 of The Wild Sage Society Podcast, host Marcie Walker sits down with Brandi—business strategist, marketing expert, and co-founder of PUSH Consulting—to explore what it truly means to lead and grow a business rooted in authenticity, purpose, and human connection.
This conversation is packed with actionable insights for entrepreneurs who are ready to shift from striving to aligned success.
Business is Human—Lead With Relationships
The biggest myth in business? That it’s just numbers and strategy. Brandi reminds us that business is about people—and relationships are the true currency. Whether you’re leading a team, building a brand, or growing your audience, connection always comes first.
“People can feel when you’re showing up from a place of truth versus performance.”
Rather than focusing solely on metrics or polished branding, Brandi encourages entrepreneurs to ask: Am I building trust? Am I being real with the people I serve?
Authenticity Isn’t Just a Buzzword—It’s a Business Strategy
We’ve all heard the advice to “be authentic,” but Brandi breaks it down into real action. Authenticity means showing up fully—even when you’re unsure, imperfect, or evolving. This includes sharing the messy middle, not just the highlight reel.
Your values should be reflected in everything from your offers to your client experience. When you’re clear on who you are and what you stand for, the right people are drawn to your work—and the wrong ones filter out.
“When your marketing matches your mission, the work becomes magnetic.”
Vulnerability is a Leadership Superpower
One of the most powerful takeaways from this episode is Brandi’s perspective on vulnerability—not as weakness, but as a strategic advantage.
By being open about challenges, learning curves, and real emotions, leaders can create safe spaces where others feel empowered to do the same. This kind of culture drives deeper collaboration and loyalty.
“Vulnerability is what builds trust—and trust is what builds momentum.”
When we let go of perfection, we create room for innovation, creativity, and growth.
Your Community is More Important Than the Algorithm
Brandi challenges the obsession with follower counts and viral content. Instead, she shifts the focus to community over quantity.
True influence is built through real conversations, shared values, and consistent presence—not through performance. Ask yourself: How am I nurturing my existing audience? Am I listening, engaging, and creating value for them?
“We’re not just building audiences—we’re building ecosystems.”
This mindset not only makes your business more sustainable but also more fulfilling.
Feedback Is Fuel—Not Failure
One of Brandi’s key lessons is to reframe feedback as a gift, even when it’s uncomfortable. Constructive criticism is one of the most underused tools in personal and professional growth.
Instead of internalizing feedback as rejection, use it as a mirror: What’s working? What needs to evolve? What can I learn from this moment?
“Feedback is data. Use it to make better decisions—not to question your worth.”
It’s this shift in perspective that allows entrepreneurs to grow not only their business, but themselves.
Build a Values-Driven Business
Throughout the episode, Brandi weaves in the importance of staying aligned with your core values. These values aren’t just personal—they should guide your messaging, marketing, offers, and decision-making.
When you ground your business in something deeper than profit, you create longevity. People can sense when your work is heart-led—and that creates lasting impact.
“You don’t need to sacrifice integrity for success. The two can coexist.”
Actionable Steps to Lead With Heart
Here are a few ways to integrate Brandi’s wisdom into your own business:
🔹 Audit Your Brand for Authenticity: Review your content, offers, and messaging. Are they a true reflection of who you are and what you believe in?
🔹 Reconnect With Your Audience : Start or re-engage genuine conversations. Listen more than you speak. Ask questions. Follow up.
🔹 Embrace the Messy: Perfection is not the goal—connection is. Show your audience the real journey, not just the polished result.
🔹 Build In Time for Reflection: Create space regularly to check in with yourself. Are you operating from alignment or obligation?
🔹 Practice Value-Based Decision Making: When faced with business decisions, pause and ask: Does this align with my values?
Final Thoughts
Brandi Anderson’s story is more than a success blueprint—it’s an invitation to build with intention. To slow down. To lead from the heart.
Her message is clear: you don’t need to burn out to build something meaningful. You don’t have to trade your values for visibility. You can create success by being real, being brave, and being deeply aligned with your purpose.
“The goal isn’t just to grow your business—it’s to grow yourself.”
If you’re ready to stop hustling and start leading from a place of heart, this episode is for you.
