The Rest Initiative Podcast (formerly Forties Unfiltered) is where breath meets healing. Hosted by Addie Green, this space is dedicated to women, especially Black women, navigating stress, grief, or the weight of overwhelm.

Season 2 marks a new chapter: moving from casual conversation about life in my forties, to intentional restoration. Each episode now offers accessible wellness talk and short, powerful breathing practices designed to help you pause, reset, and reclaim your rest.

We begin with a 10-minute guided breath session to ground you in stillness and remind you that rest is not a luxury... it’s a necessity. Because stress is a silent killer, but with each breath, you can choose ease.

Tune in weekly for guided practices and real conversations that honor your body, your breath, and your healing journey.
