Diet culture preys on midlife uncertainty — on the moments you start to question your body, your energy, your worth.

But you don’t need to shrink to prove you’re still vibrant. Your value isn’t measured in inches, weight, or willpower. It’s in your wisdom, your presence, your capacity to care for yourself in new ways.

Midlife isn’t a decline; it’s an evolution. Let’s start treating it that way. 🌿

Your hormones are doing exactly what they’re designed to do during midlife!

The real problem is the story you’ve been told about those changes.

Diet culture has spent decades framing normal physiology as something to “fix,” making you feel like your body is the enemy instead of a system asking for support.

When we zoom out, we see clearly: the shame, urgency, and fear don’t come from your hormones; they come from cultural messaging that benefits from your insecurity.

When you understand the science, everything gets quieter, and you can care for yourself with nourishment, rest, and appropriate medical support.

Want a deeper, evidence-based breakdown of hormones, midlife, and nourishment?

👉🏼 Head to my bio link to learn more about Beyond Nutrition, my brand-new, 2-hour course for dietitians who get 3.5 CPEs!

The course includes a 30 minute consultation with me - for your patients and clients or for you. Early launch pricing ends December 15th!

Instead of restricting your food, I’d love for you to…👇👇

Hydrate and move gently.
A walk, stretch, or yoga flow can help you reconnect with your body—not “burn off” anything.

Eat breakfast.
Skipping meals only fuels guilt and hunger later. Start your day with something nourishing and satisfying.

Check your self-talk.
If your inner voice turns critical (“I overdid it,” “I’ll be good today”), pause. You didn’t do anything wrong. Food isn’t a moral issue.

Do something grounding.
Get outside, tidy a space, journal, or call a friend. Regulate your nervous system before you rush to “fix” your body.

Eat what you want, no restriction.
One meal—or one holiday—doesn’t undo anything. Your body is resilient!

As a society, we’ve managed to turn the achievement of health and vitality into something more complicated and stressful than it needs to be.

That’s a shame.

Let’s vow, together, right now, to ditch that mentality.

And work to help our clients ditch it, too!

What if we helped clients see midlife as the opportunity it is: to rethink our relationship to food and body and focus on nourishing and supporting, instead?

It’s easy to fall down a Google rabbit hole when searching for midlife or menopause support, supplements, powders, “natural” fixes everywhere.

Here’s the truth: there’s no solid evidence that most of these are helpful.

And when someone has a history of disordered eating, supplement use can get even more complicated. Many medications and supplements interact, so always get a full list of what your client or patient is taking.

Some nutrients, like vitamin D or omega-3s (when assessed and in the right EPA:DHA ratio) can be beneficial. But others, like DHEA? There’s no reason to test or take it orally. It simply doesn’t work that way.

👉 If you’re unsure, check the 2023 Menopause Society Nonhormone Therapy Position Statement—this is included in the course materials for anyone who registers.

P.S. Reminder that the course was made for both practitioners and midlife women looking for more information for themselves as well!

Hormone therapy can be life-changing for you or your clients, but it’s not one-size-fits-all.

Understanding indications, timing, and terminology (like “bioidentical”) helps clinicians and patients make evidence-based decisions.

If you’re supporting midlife clients or exploring therapy yourself, start by clarifying symptoms, risk factors, and personal goals—not what’s trending on social media.

Dietitians get 3.50 CPEs and the course includes 30 minute call with me to review cases and firm up applicable knowledge.

The most important question to ask isn’t how many minutes or how many calories: it’s “How much do I enjoy this?”

Because if you don’t like it, you won’t do it, no matter how “good for you” it’s supposed to be.

For some people, joining an exercise class brings energy, connection, and accountability. They thrive in that environment. For others, those same classes feel uncomfortable or even triggering. That’s okay, too. 

👉🏼 There is no one-size-fits-all way to move your body.

✨ Maybe you hate the gym but love to dance in your kitchen.

✨ Maybe walking your dog through the woods is where you feel most alive.

✨ Maybe taking the stairs or stretching before bed gives you just enough of that spark.

Try this:

1️⃣ Make a list of movement that brings you a sense of joy, peace, or curiosity.

2️⃣ Choose one and do it this week.

3️⃣ Notice how your energy, mood, and self-talk shift when movement becomes something you get to do, not something you have to do.

Your body doesn’t need punishment, especially in midlife. It needs partnership.
