Ever feel like you're on a wild quest for guidance through mid-life and beyond, but the perfect map seems to be missing? 🌍 Welcome to this space, where fresh perspectives await! I’ve been on the hunt too—scouring the internet for wisdom on menopause, aging, weight gain, and life's curveballs. My body decided to take a vacation while my spirit stayed young and adventurous. 😅 Cue the chaotic online search filled with conflicting advice, cookie-cutter tips, and zero personalized solutions.

Let’s be real: I don’t fit into any box, and no one’s putting baby in a corner! 🛑 With the world’s opinions swirling around like confetti on New Year’s 🎉, it’s time we tackle the side effects of neglecting our bodies and discover customized solutions for a healthier, happier life that vibes with our mental state. I felt the urge for change and refused to settle for a couch-potato existence, ruminating over the past or worrying about a future that felt dull because my body wasn’t keeping up with my mind.

I’m all in for living fully—both in my thoughts and my actions, starting now! 💪 I bet many of you can relate, right? Let’s embrace this journey together!

I dove deep into the online world, hoping to find some gems of wisdom, but instead, I stumbled upon a parade of men “mansplaining” menopause and young whippersnappers dishing out weight loss tips. 🙄 Newsflash: My body has been through a lot, and navigating this hormonal circus is no stroll in the park! 🎪 Let’s just say, puberty and pregnancy? Child’s play compared to this!

I was looking for someone who gets the peri and post-menopause struggles – someone who's wrestled the same aging demons. 🤼‍♀️ I’m all about intervention now, not just prevention. If you’re not serving up something useful, thanks, but no thanks! 🙅‍♀️ And don’t even get me started on the one-size-fits-all approach. It feels like a cruel joke that works for everyone but me. 😩 Magical calorie deficits? Please! My mid-life journey is a bit more complicated than calories in, calories out. Starving myself or extreme workouts? Nope, that ship has sailed! 🚢

So, how did I end up here? Well, I’m definitely not your average health guru. I used to be deep in the chaos of life, juggling family, work, and a good wine night with friends. 🍷 When those extra pounds started knocking, along with body aches, headaches, fatigue, and a sprinkle of anxiety, I realized I needed someone relatable to help me out of that mess. I wanted someone who truly gets it – who wasn’t always a fitness buff and understands the struggle of turning things around when health took a backseat.

I felt like a fish out of water 🐟 in the wellness world, surrounded by health experts who seemed to effortlessly embrace well-being. It was either accept feeling worn out and old or figure out how to fix the mess my body was in. Spoiler alert: I chose the latter! 💡 So, what did I do? I decided to educate myself and uncover the secrets to health and vitality, even after indulging in the “good life.”

I went back to school, and here’s the kicker: it was never too late! 🎓 Change is possible at any stage. I wrestled with confidence in this new field, feeling like a fraud despite all the knowledge I gained. But I’m evolving, and guess what? It’s okay to start fresh! ✨ Now, armed with research, degrees, and a ton of education (details in my bio, if you’re curious), my message is simple: I did the hard work so you don’t have to. You’re welcome – I just saved you from drowning in a sea of student loan debt! insert chuckle here 😂

The health and fitness arena can feel like a minefield, especially when everyone seems to make weight loss look like a walk in the park. 🚶‍♀️ But let me tell you, once I lose it, I’m not gaining it back for anyone! Establishing healthy habits was a Herculean task for me, thanks to a childhood filled with antibiotics, Wonder Bread, soda, and Twinkies – I barely saw a carrot! 🥕 Fixing my microbiome was a revelation, and yet nobody talks about that when dishing out diet advice.

Learning to build healthy routines, exercise with extra weight, and juggle hormonal changes? Not exactly a cakewalk. 🍰 But hey, I managed to shed 60lbs (with more to go), proving it’s never too late to embrace health and vitality. I’m not doomed to pay for the sins of my youth!
