From Science to Soul: Rewilding the Body, the Heart, and the Feminine After 50

In this week’s episode of The Aging Games Podcast, I sit down with Holly Erin Copeland, whose journey is both fascinating and deeply inspiring. A former conservation biologist, Holly began her career rooted in data, ecology, and the scientific method. But over time, something began to shift.

What started as a structured, analytical path slowly opened into something far more intuitive and expansive. Holly stepped out of the traditional scientific world and into the realm of energy medicine, biofield tuning, and deep inner healing. Her work today is centered around helping others reconnect with themselves, their bodies, and the natural intelligence that so many of us have learned to ignore.

One of the most powerful themes we explore in this conversation is the idea of “inner rewilding.” Holly speaks about how modern life often disconnects us from our own rhythms, our intuition, and the subtle signals of the body. Through her work, she helps people return to that place of inner knowing, where healing is not forced but allowed.

We talk about coherence, the state where the heart, mind, and body are aligned, and how living from this place can completely change how we experience life. Instead of pushing, striving, and constantly doing, there is a softening into presence, into awareness, and into trust.

This conversation will resonate deeply with women, especially those navigating life after fifty. There is often a profound shift that happens during this stage of life. Priorities change. The external noise begins to lose its grip. And many women feel a quiet but undeniable call to something deeper.

Holly shares her perspective on why this transformation happens and how we can move through it with more ease and grace. Rather than resisting change, she encourages us to lean into it, to listen more closely to ourselves, and to begin honoring what feels true.

We also explore simple practices that anyone can begin incorporating into their daily life. These are not complicated or overwhelming, but rather small, intentional ways to reconnect with your body, your breath, and your inner state. It is about coming back to yourself, again and again.

Another highlight of our conversation is Holly’s upcoming retreat in Costa Rica this April. Designed for those who feel called to go deeper, the retreat includes immersive experiences in nature, guided healing work, and for some, ceremonial plant medicine. It is an opportunity to step away from daily life and reconnect in a powerful and meaningful way.

This episode is a reminder that it is never too late to shift direction, to listen to your inner voice, and to choose a path that feels more aligned with who you truly are.

It was a beautiful, uplifting, and expansive conversation, and I hope it leaves you feeling inspired to reconnect with your own wild wisdom.

How to Break a Water Fast

As always there's quite a bit of conflicting information out there about how to break a fast. One thing everyone agrees on is that the fast needs to broken slowly and gently. You also need several days to go back to eating normally. For example, if you do a 7 day fast, you need about 3 days of refeeding. On a 10 day fast, you'll need 4-5 days and so on. How you break the fast will make or break the whole experience. If you go right back to your old way of eating, you can easily negate all the benefits of your fast. One school of thought insists on breaking the fast with fruit, more specifically watermelon and then lots of veggies and more fruit. Since my goal is to remain in ketosis, I will be taking a different approach. I will be eating protein, fat and some low-carb veggies, bone broth and lots of water. I would also recommend abstaining from alcohol for at least a few days so you're not overburdening your liver. Listen to your body. Don't force the food if yo...

4 Months Later - Fasting - Carnivore - OMAD

I know it's been a while since I've done an update. So here we are at the beginning of September already. Things are progressing really nicely. So much better than I ever imagined. I've slowly transitioned to a mostly Carnivore diet , consisting or meat, eggs and dairy with very little veggies and no fruit. I've continued fasting on a regular basis. Basically having just one meal a day on most days (OMAD) and then still doing regular water fasts as I feel the need. My weight continued to decrease slowly but very steadily. I wasn't expecting this at all. I would have been very happy just maintaining my weight under 70kg and here I am at 62kg. How cool is that? Yeah, I'm sure excited.  Here's my latest before and after pic. Hopefully you guys can see the difference. I can tell you that I feel so amazing! I've had to buy a whole new wardrobe. I know, the horror, eh? I've stopped taking all my supplements. My eczema is a thing of the past. My Has...

240 Hour Water Fast Completed

That's 10 whole days for those of you who are bad at math. :) Wow, what an accomplishment. I can't believe that I had the willpower to stick to this. How did I know it was time to break the fast? Hunger returned with a vengeance last night. Also, weight loss has really slowed down in the last couple of days. I guess my body was running out of things to munch on. Well, I could still think of a few places but we have to trust the system. I woke up this morning very excited and started with some kefir to replenish some of the intestinal bacteria before my first meal. I'm now enjoying a nice cup of matcha tea with extra cream and a bit of bone broth protein (I swear it tastes like hot chocolate, yum!) and thinking about what my first proper meal will be. I still have some broth left so I was thinking of perhaps making some cream of mushroom soup and pretty much sticking to liquids today but the day is still young. Will keep you guys posted.
