Episode Description

I recently joined Wendy on her podcast for an honest conversation about the midlife body shift so many women experience—but rarely get clear answers about.

In this episode, I share my own unexpected entry into perimenopause, the health challenges that forced me to slow down and reassess everything, and how those experiences shaped the individualized approach I now use with women in midlife. We talk openly about why so many women feel blindsided by weight gain, fatigue, and mood changes, and how hormones, stress, sleep, and daily habits quietly compound over time.

We also explore what actually helps during this season—personalized nutrition, resistance training, and mindset support that work with your body instead of against it.

This conversation is for any woman who feels confused, frustrated, or disconnected from her body in midlife and wants clarity, agency, and compassionate support moving forward.
