Black Women’s Wellness: Inspiring Mental, Physical, and Social Health – Seasonal Sister Podcast

Peaceful Wellness Practices for Black Women in Midlife | Reclaiming Your Power with the Letter P

Episode Notes

Peace is powerful—and in this episode of the Seasonal Sisters Podcast, Janice Saunders invites Black women in midlife to reclaim their peace as a pathway to lasting wellness. As part of the A to Z of Wellness series, this episode focuses on healthy habits beginning with the letter P, including peace, patience, presence, and personal care practices that support mental, physical, and social wellness.

Janice vulnerably shares her personal journey navigating family estrangement, emotional healing, and the long work of rebuilding peace without fixing what cannot be fixed. Through storytelling, reflection, and practical wellness tools, she reminds listeners that prosperity in midlife is rooted in peace of mind, peace in the body, peace at home, and peace in community.

This episode is an encouragement to release self-blame, stop procrastinating on your wellness, and begin experimenting with small, compassionate practices that help you move from pessimism to power.
