Founders Member Enrollment for Spring 2026

Go from tension, irritability, and lack of motivation, without body-altering medications or confusing labs, to feeling clear, energized, and like yourself again. One month to transform. One month to integrate. That's how change actually lasts.

It’s Time

This membership is designed to help women move from stagnation and exhaustion toward renewal and flow.

Grounded in Traditional Chinese Medicine, each 21-day seasonal transformation blends nutrition, movement, reflection, and community support.

Who This Is For

This membership supports women who:

  • Feel overwhelmed or disconnected from their natural rhythms

  • Experience fatigue, irritability, anxiety, or hormonal imbalance

  • Struggle to sustain health routines and want a gentler, more grounded approach

  • Crave community, structure, and expert guidance without judgment or pressure

What’s Included

Each phase offers structure, nourishment, and compassionate guidance that meet you where you are and gently bring you forward.

Your membership provides continuous access to all four seasonal programs, plus year-round support and community.

  • Listen to your body’s signals and align daily rhythms with seasonal changes

  • Nourish organ systems that correspond to each element

  • Release emotional and physical stagnation through gentle, well-paced guidance

  • Establish new habits that feel restorative rather than restrictive

In every 21-day seasonal transformation, you receive:

  • Seasonal Meal Plans and Grocery Lists with TCM-based recipes to nourish your body through the season’s transitions

  • Daily Guided Journal Prompts to help you reflect, release, and set aligned intentions

  • Qigong and Movement Videos tailored to the season’s element for moving stagnation and restoring balance

  • Acupressure and Herbal Support Guides to deepen energetic and physical healing

  • Weekly Reflection Check-ins that help you track progress and celebrate wins

  • Private Member Community for heartfelt connection and live coaching support

  • Live Seasonal Q&A and Teaching Calls led by Dr. Jennifer Taylor, weaving Five Element wisdom with practical application

Your membership continues year-round, giving you access to new materials each season and the flexibility to revisit past cycles whenever you need.

HOW IT WORKS

This is not a 21-day challenge that drops you off a cliff at day 22. Every season is two months, designed that way on purpose.

Month 1 — The 21-Day Transformation

You are inside an active, guided process from day one.

  • Seasonal meal plans and grocery lists built around the organ systems this element governs

  • Daily qigong and movement videos to move stagnation and restore flow

  • Journal prompts that track what is shifting in your body and your patterns

  • Acupressure and herbal support guides you can use at home between sessions

  • Access to the private member community moving through the same season alongside you

Month 2 — Integration and Transition

Most programs end at day 21 and leave you on your own. This one doesn't.

Month 2 is where the transformation becomes yours. You are implementing what you learned, noticing what stuck, adjusting what needs adjusting, and beginning to sense the next season approaching. Your body needs time to settle into a new rhythm. This month protects that process.

At the close of Month 2, we meet live.

This is your transition call. We look at what shifted, what you are carrying forward, and what the next season is asking of you. You move into the next cycle with clarity and a body that has been supported through the whole arc, not just the first three weeks.

Unstuck: A Spring Transformation

The Season of Awakening

Spring calls for movement, clarity, and release. It is the time to clear stagnation, strengthen the Liver, and restore a sense of purpose.

Ignited: A Summer Transformation

The Season of Expansion

A time to open the heart, deepen joy, and find centered energy amidst growth. Summer is the season of the Heart and the Fire Element. Its purpose is connection and opening to joy, presence, and relational warmth.

Rooted: A Late Summer Transformation

The Season of Nourishment & Centering

Late Summer belongs to the Earth Element, governing digestion, stability, and self-compassion. This is the bridge between the yang of Summer and the inward energy of Fall. It is the moment to ground, simplify, and replenish.

Unburdened: A Fall Transformation

The Season of Letting Go

Fall invites clarity and refinement. The Metal Element teaches discernment: keeping what strengthens you and releasing what weighs you down.

Restored: A Winter Transformation

The Season of Replenishment

Winter belongs to the Water Element and the Kidney system. This is the deep pause, the time to rest, conserve, and restore vitality.

Through the lens of Traditional Chinese Medicine, you will move through five 21-day guided programs that support your physical, emotional, and energetic flow across the seasons.

  • Your membership gives you full access to all materials year-round. You can revisit each program whenever you are ready or move at your own pace.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Every season includes a 30 min, live (Google Meet) Q&A and teaching call with me directly. You bring your questions, I answer them in real time, and I connect what you're experiencing back to the element we're working with. You're not getting a pre-recorded library and a contact form. You're getting an actual practicing acupuncturist who knows this material clinically and personally.

  • That's exactly what the second month is for. Month one is the 21-day active program. Month two is integration — you're not behind, you're in the process. All materials stay accessible for as long as you're a member, and the seasons cycle, so if life gets loud during Spring, this will be here for you next Spring too.

  • After your 2-month minimum, you can cancel anytime from your account. No calls, no runaround. You keep access through the end of your billing cycle.
