Because a Healthy Gut is a Whole Vibe™
At Melanin & Microbiome™, we help Black women restore their gut health, regulate their nervous systems, and reconnect with their bodies—so they can feel good again. Our philosophy is simple: when your gut is balanced, your whole life realigns.
Our coaching and educational programs are rooted in The Chrysalis Method™, a signature approach that blends science, spirit, and culture. We move through the emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual layers of wellness to create deep, lasting transformation—not just symptom relief.
Whether you’re here for a gentle reset or a full-body reawakening, you’re in the right place. Our coaching series—The Butterfly Series™—guides you through a progressive healing journey designed with Black women in mind.
🐛 Start with the Cocoon Cleanse™ for a short, powerful reset.
🦋 Go deeper with Cocooned™, She Emerges™, or Butterfly Body™ for group or 1:1 coaching that meets you where you are.
Take a look at our current offerings below, and join the path back to balance—from the inside out.
The Chrysalis Method™
A Gut-Centered, Spirit-Led Wellness Framework for Black Women
The Chrysalis Method™ is the signature coaching approach used in every Melanin & Microbiome™ experience. Developed by certified holistic health coach Anisa Jordan, this five-phase framework mirrors the metamorphosis of a butterfly—guiding you through a journey of emotional, spiritual, physical, and mental healing that begins in the gut.
It’s more than a method. It’s a movement.
Rooted in the belief that true wellness is both cultural and cellular, The Chrysalis Method™ helps Black women restore balance by addressing:
Gut health as the body’s emotional and physical core
Primary foods like joy, purpose, spirituality, and environment
And the power of stillness, nourishment, and embodiment
Every group, cleanse, and private coaching program follows this same blueprint—from reset to emergence.
The Five Phases of The Chrysalis Method™
Each coaching experience flows through five core stages inspired by the sacred transformation of the butterfly. Every phase builds on the last, creating space for deep restoration and aligned expansion.
The Butterfly Series™
A signature suite of coaching experiences designed for deep transformation
Every offering inside The Butterfly Series™ is built upon The Chrysalis Method™—guiding you from gut reset to full-body rebalance, and ultimately into aligned embodiment.
Whether you’re just starting your healing journey or ready for something deeper, these programs meet you exactly where you are. You’ll find rest, structure, nourishment, and soul-led support—all at your pace, in your rhythm, on your terms.
