These are practical, everyday picks that make it easier to stay active, focused, and balanced, no matter how busy your remote workday gets.
As someone with POTS, hEDS, MCAS, Autism, Sleep Apnea, and more…these are the products that have helped me, and some funny socks that are relatable and just make me laugh on a bad day.
Three years ago I went outside to check that my spigots were covered before a pending storm was to descend over Nashville, TN. I slipped on black ice, wedged my running shoe between two pavers, and heard my ankle snap. I had never broken a bone, but I immediately knew the pain was unlike anything I had ever experienced. I screamed so loud my neighbor came over to help me crawl inside. That night the city was covered with 6" of snow and if you know anything about living in the southeast, that much snow equals paralysis! It was six days before I could get to the doctor's office for them to declare fractures on both sides of my ankle joint and for surgery to be recommended. Now, the x-ray of my ankle looks a lot like a fence post someone screwed a bunch of screws into through a metal plate! Before I went into surgery, I went into deep research mode to put together my “Ankle Healing Protocol”. I committed to doing whatever it took to restore full function to my ankle. I was about to turn 50 years old and hadn't lived an active, healthy life thus far just to trigger a cascade effect that would make me feel a lot older than I was. I'm happy to report that I was jogging again in 3 months and can do all my regular yoga poses as I could before surgery. I have since shared this “Protocol” with multiple other people who had similar surgeries and they experienced similar results. Take and apply whatever resonates with you and leave the rest! And as always, use your judgment. Consult your doctor as I am a middle-aged woman trying to lead a happy, healthy life, not a doctor or a physical therapist!

Self-care has grown beyond bubble baths and face masks—it’s now about creating environments and habits that feed every part of who you are. The way we eat, the places we go, and the services we choose all shape our energy, our mood, and ultimately, our health. Start with food that loves you back. Look for places that serve clean, nutrient-rich meals—smoothie bars that use organic produce, cafés that offer adaptogenic lattes, and restaurants that make freshness their signature. If you’re cooking at home, think of it as an act of love. Create a small ritual around it: light a candle, play music, and eat slowly. Food is energy, and energy responds to intention. Then, invest in services that support your wellness journey. Maybe it’s a float therapy session to quiet your nervous system, a sound bath to balance your energy, or a lymphatic drainage massage that leaves you feeling light and renewed. These aren’t indulgences—they’re recalibrations for a body that carries energy.
These are my tried and true supplements that help support my health goals as a 40+ woman in the most natural way possible. I take everything here daily and I trust these brands!

I say 30s but to be real, the earlier in adulthood you start taking these supplements, the better. Keep in mind that a varied and balanced diet consisting primarily of whole foods is usually good enough to give you the vitamins, minerals etc. that you need. For those of us who find it harder to be perfect in our consumption habits however, and those who have chosen to follow exclusive diets, supplements are a good way to ensure you're not missing out on your micros.
