In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Brandy Cummings—a Doctor of Clinical Nutrition and founder of Resilient Motherhood—to talk about what it really looks like to raise children in your 40s while caring for your own health and energy.
Dr. Brandy shares her powerful personal story of mold exposure, miscarriage, and chronic symptoms that led her to discover the hidden root causes of fatigue and burnout in moms. Today, she helps women resolve lingering postpartum issues like brain fog, anxiety, and exhaustion that are too often dismissed as “just part of motherhood.”
We dive into the unique physical and emotional challenges of parenting later in life, why so many women struggle with low energy despite “normal” labs, and how optimizing cellular health, hormones, and circadian rhythms can completely transform the way moms feel. Brandy also explains why emotional health and mindset are just as important as nutrition and supplements when it comes to resilience.
You’ll learn practical, everyday tools for improving sleep, reducing stress, balancing hormones, and boosting energy naturally. Plus, Dr. Brandy offers encouragement on how to shift from a cycle of survival to creating a life you love living—because motherhood in your 40s doesn’t have to mean settling for fatigue and burnout.
✨ Stay Fearless—For you are fearfully and wonderfully made! ✨
