The Exhale And Explore Podcast
Hosted by Anil Manley, MS, the MindBody Counselor and Certified Health Educator, and Lauren Fain, RN, a Board Certified Holistic and Registered Nurse. The Exhale and Explore Podcast is a health and wellness conversation about midlife wellbeing for Black women who are done performing strength.
We explore nervous system regulation, food and body trust, identity shifts, joy, travel, and relationships — while naming the real impact of generational stress, cultural expectations, and what researchers call “weathering.”
This is a space where Black well-being is centered.
Each episode includes one simple invitation to experiment in your real life.
Because wellbeing isn’t something you perfect.
It’s something you practice.
Exhale.
Then explore what else is possible.
