🧠 Planning the Rest of 2025: What Do You Actually Want to Accomplish?

As of August 1, there are five months left in the year.
Have you asked yourself:

• What 1 to 3 outcomes do I want to accomplish by December 31?

• What would move the needle in my health, business, or personal life?

• Am I building systems or just winging it?

Here’s how I’m approaching the rest of 2025:

1. Health first. Always.

2. Business second.

3. Everything else after that.

I’m reverse-planning each goal by asking:

• What habits will help me show up consistently?

• What distractions need to go?

• Who’s in my corner to hold me accountable?

More isn’t better. Better is better.
You don’t need more goals or more pressure.
You need the right habits, mindset, and support system.

🌿 What I’m Loving This Week: Cured Serenity Gummies for Deeper Sleep

Let’s talk sleep support that actually works when you’re already rocking a solid sleep hygiene evening routine.

Clients who’ve struggled for years with poor sleep—especially those with:

• Mold exposure

• Hormonal imbalances

• Nervous system dysregulation

• Menopausal symptoms

• Anxiety

• High stress jobs

…are raving about these:
Cured Serenity Gummies (yes, they’re HSA/FSA eligible!)

They include a microdose of THC + CBD, blended with adaptogens like ashwagandha and functional mushrooms.
The result? A regulated nervous system, easier time falling asleep, and waking up without that “hangover” fog. There are ZERO intoxicating effects.

🌀 Myth Busted: “But My Labs Are Normal…”

Let me be clear:

Normal ≠ Optimal.

Your doctor may say your labs are “within range.”
But those ranges are often based on averages—and average in today’s population is increasingly unwell.

If you’re still experiencing symptoms (fatigue, brain fog, bloating, insomnia, weight changes), then “normal labs” don’t tell the full story.
👉 This is where root cause functional lab analysis makes all the difference. That’s where I come in!

📣 In Case You Missed It

Congress just passed Section 453 of H.R. 4368, which protects Syngenta (maker of Paraquat, a known neurotoxin) from future liability.
No public vote. No floor debate.

💀 Paraquat is banned in 50 countries—including China, where it’s made.
💀 Still widely used in the U.S. on wheat, corn, and soy crops.
💀 Linked to Parkinson’s, lung damage, and acute poisoning.

Think about the ripple effect:
→ Processed foods
→ Animal feed
→ Your plate
This is why food quality and sourcing matters.

🧡 From My Corner of the World: Why I’m Using Topical Progesterone

Lately I’ve been experimenting with bHRT topical progesterone from Raena. After using the Inito at-home hormone tracker for a few months, I saw that my progesterone was on the low end.

For a cycling woman, progesterone is essential. It helps:

• Balance the effects of estrogen

• Calm the nervous system

• Promote deep sleep and mood stability

• Support bone growth

• Facilitate thyroid function

• Regulate the menstrual cycle

• Act as a natural antidepressant and relaxant

• Normalize androgens

• Prevent estrogen dominance and protect against reproductive cancers

Some signs of low progesterone include:

• PMS, heavy periods, cramping, clotting

• Anxiety, mood swings, insomnia

• Headaches or migraines

• Water retention, breast tenderness

• Trouble concentrating or remembering

• Hot flashes, low libido

• Fertility challenges, endometriosis, fibroids

If this feels familiar, know this:
There are answers. Your symptoms are real. And there’s more support available than just “waiting it out.”
