More and more midlife women are talking about GLP-1 medications, menopause, and weight changes that feel impossible to manage, even when lifestyle is already dialed in. There is still so much confusion, judgment, and stigma here, so let’s talk about what the science actually shows.

I’m hosting a live conversation on rē•spin with Dr. Catherine Johnson, MD of Precision Medical Care LLC, Obesity Medicine and Emergency Medicine Board Certified physician, where we’ll break this down in a straightforward way. We’ll talk about why menopause can shift metabolism and insulin sensitivity, why weight gain happens even with “perfect” habits, and why this is biology, not a lack of willpower or discipline.

We’ll also cover the difference between FDA-approved GLP-1 dosing and micro-dosing through compounding pharmacies, who each approach may be appropriate for, safety considerations, and how these medications fit within a bigger picture of health, lifestyle, and behavior change.

If you’re a midlife woman who feels like your body has changed and no one told you the rules changed, too, this session is for you. Our goal is to replace confusion and shame with clarity and informed choice.

Join us January 7th, 2026 at 7 PM ET for an hour-long conversation with Q&A. This is complimentary. Please share with a friend, family member, or coworker who needs to hear this.

New Year’s Resolutions, yay or nay?

The usual “reset everything at once” approach ignores those realities, and that’s why so many women feel like they’re failing by February. On my latest Health Trip Podcast, I talk through what the science actually supports: small, sustainable steps, systems over motivation, identity-based habits, and support that works with your biology instead of against it. Your 2nd act is an opportunity to build habits that are realistic and lasting.

If you’ve been frustrated with goals that never stick, this episode offers a different way forward. Schedule your complimentary consultation and book your package by Dec. 31st and receive a bonus session. Linked in profile along with this episode.

This is my WHY. Meet Miles. My first grandson who is 3 months old. I knew this day would come (I have 5 kids) and I wanted to be ready.

I want to be able to:
-be useful to my kids as I age, not a burden.
-maintain and build strength to lift babies, put down babies, and carry babies.
-maintain my energy and brain health to keep up and focus on nuanced tasks.
-take my grandkids on vacations, hiking, kayaking, horseback riding, and seeing the world.

My daily routine is full of intentional, and mostly intuitive actions that bring me joy, challenges, and move me towards my wellness vision.

What are your goals when you’re in your 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s? A new year is upon you. What’s going to be different for you?

👉 S*xual pleasure IS a pillar of health.

It’s tied to hormones, cardiovascular health, sleep, mood, and even long term longevity. Because of shame and silence, too many women quietly accept pain, low desire, or the story that s*x simply fades after midlife. It doesn’t.

Menopause changes s*x, it does not cancel it.

In this episode, we talk about:
✨ What actually happens to your body and brain in midlife
✨ How pleasure can evolve, not disappear
✨ Practical ways to rebuild a satisfying, pain free s*x life on your own terms

As I often say, every woman has her own health equation, and that includes s*xual pleasure. There is no one “right” path.
My guest is , a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and AASECT Certified S*x Therapist. She is the Clinical Director at Avid Intimacy, where she specializes in evidence based s*x and relationship therapy for individuals and couples.

Tune in for science-based strategies to reconnect with your s*xual pleasure in your 2nd act. It’s never too late.

I value capturing data about my health. Are the things I’m putting into action giving me the results I want?

Just under 2 years ago, I set out to increase my cardiorespiratory fitness through biking on my Peloton. Weight training has been part of my life for over 40 years, but cardio, not so much.

I tested my VO2 Max and this is what happened…

Menopause changes our bodies, our energy, our hormones, and yes, our finances too. This week on the Health Trip Podcast, I sat down with Dr. Barb Provost from to talk about the real cost of navigating midlife health and how women can prepare for this next chapter with confidence and practical action steps.

We covered everything from the rising expenses of symptom management and medical care to the lifestyle investments that actually move the needle in midlife. We also talked about why financial planning is just as important as sleep, strength training, and hormone health during this stage of life. Financial health is a pillar of health.

Barb’s message is simple: women deserve clear information, trusted support, and a real plan for their second act. And it’s never too late to start.

If you’re feeling the struggle of midlife changes or you want to feel more financially prepared in your 2nd act, this episode is absolutely worth a listen.

I spent the afternoon at Chicago today closing the final presentation on their menopause series featuring Dr. Kristi DeSapri of , of .gyne.health , and Kate Jackson of . I focused on lifestyle interventions for menopausal women honing in on nutrition and exercise pillars. Hats off to AbbVie for not only including the menopause conversation into their workplace for their female employees, but for changing policies to support them. They also have a variety of programs, services, and support offered, showing women that they are being heard and valued.

It was an honor to be part of celebrating and supporting midlife women with actionable and practical steps to help them thrive at work, and in life, their way.

I had the pleasure of joining on their Women & Money The S**t We Don’t Talk About Podcast to talk about the cost of going through the menopause transition. The cost is real for midlife women. From hair loss treatments and supplements, skincare, hormones, fitness apps or memberships, healthy food, therapy, a menopause care expert outside your insurance model, health coaches, and so much more, it’s her new reality and she needs to be savvy at prioritizing and budgeting. Financial health is a pillar of longevity.

Menopause education, trusted resources, and an accountability partner are part of her midlife equation. Follow the link in the profile to hear the full episode. It’s a fantastic conversation.
