If your first instinct is to give up today because things didn’t go how you planned yesterday, pause for a second...

One week (or even one day) doesn’t erase the care you’ve been giving yourself.

Instead of scrapping everything, try:

↳ Starting with water. A few extra glasses can do more than you think after salty food and late nights.
↳ Have one solid meal that feels grounding (protein, fiber, something warm. No need to “make up” for anything.
↳ Add movement, even if it’s a short walk or stretching to shake off the stiffness.
↳ Aim for earlier rest tonight. Your body has been taking in a lot, and sleep helps it settle.

That’s it. No reset or punishment. No promises about January.

Share this with a loved one who has been working on their health.

This is what real progress actually looks like.

Not perfection or constant motivation, but a series of small, intentional choices that start to shift how you think, feel, and show up for yourself.

Some days are easier than others, and that’s part of the process. What matters is having support that helps you stay grounded when motivation dips and temptation shows up.

Having someone in your corner helps turn good intentions into follow-through, especially when life gets busy or routines fall apart.

For many of us, this becomes even more important during perimenopause, when symptoms like brain fog, sleep disruption, stubborn weight changes, and mood shifts can make progress feel unpredictable.

My Health Your Way Membership was created with that in mind. It offers structure, guidance, and steady accountability that fits real life and this stage of life, so you’re not left guessing or starting over every few weeks.

If you’ve been craving support that helps you stay consistent and reach your health goals, this might be the right next step.

Are these cookies the “healthiest” choice?
No.

But I made them with family.
I laughed.
I tasted them.
And guess what? I enjoyed them afterward without guilt.

And that matters more than we’ve been told.

This week is full of moments like this. Baking together, gathering with family, enjoying traditions, and sharing food that might not fit into macros or be the most nutritious.

Yes, we want to make healthier choices this season, but when we try to make every choice “right,” it often creates more stress and guilt than it’s worth, and it pulls us out of the moment we’re actually in.

Health isn’t built on one plate of cookies. It’s shaped by patterns over time, and by a nervous system that feels safe enough to relax, enjoy, and move on without spiraling.

You’re allowed to enjoy the cookie and stay present. You’re allowed to hold onto your health goals without giving up the joy of the season.

👉 How are you giving yourself permission to enjoy this season without guilt?

We spend so much time thinking about what to give everyone else that somewhere along the way, we tell ourselves we’ll “get to it later” when it comes to our own needs.

But we miss that we only have one body to move through our lives with. If we want to be present for the people we love, then we need to make sure we’re supported too... not running on empty or putting ourselves last.

I’ve found that the most valuable gifts in this season are the small, steady choices that help your body feel supported instead of stressed and stretched thin.

No receipts to return and no perfection required. Just choices that pay you back in energy, clarity, and steadiness.

If you were gifting to yourself this season, what would be on your receipt?

What happened to you?

You used to feel sharp.
Your energy held steady.
Your body felt predictable.

Now you lose your train of thought mid-sentence.
You crash by midafternoon no matter how well you sleep.
Your weight shifts even though your habits haven’t changed.
Some days your body feels puffy, itchy, and completely out of sync.

And the frustrating part…
You’re not ignoring your health.

You eat well.
You move your body.
You’re doing what used to work.

But this stage of life plays by a different rulebook.
Hormones, stress, sleep, metabolism, and nervous system load all start interacting differently, and your body pushes back when it’s treated like it’s still in its 30s.

These changes aren’t random.
They’re signals that your body needs support that matches this season.

If you’ve been thinking, “Why does this feel so different?” you don’t have to figure it out on your own.

If you’re ready for guidance that actually takes midlife hormones and real life into account, message me and let’s talk about what support could look like for you.

I hear this a lot around this time of year:

“Now just isn’t the right time.”

And honestly? I get it.
Between the holiday chaos, the extra expenses, the family stuff, and the pressure to hold everything together… it feels easier to push your own needs to January.

But here’s what I’ve noticed after working with women for years:

It’s rarely the timing that’s the problem.
It’s the fear underneath it.

The fear of trying again after so many things haven’t worked.
The fear of wasting money on something that won’t stick.
The fear of slipping back into a diet you swore you’d never do again.
The fear of disappointing yourself… one more time.

Those thoughts feel protective, but they keep you circling the same spot: exhausted, frustrated, and waiting for life to magically get easier before you take care of yourself.

But the women who end up feeling completely different a few months from now?
Most of them didn’t join at a “perfect” moment.
They joined in the middle of work deadlines, messy homes, tight budgets, sickness going around, and kids melting down in the background.

They joined because they finally realized this:

Life wasn’t going to slow down for them,
so they chose to slow down for themselves.

If you’ve been feeling that quiet tug to do something for your health before the year ends, the Health Your Way Membership is open for a few more days with the Black Friday special.

👉 Message me, and I’ll send the details your way. 💜

Google nor ChatGPT are going to fix the way your body feels right now.

You can search for every symptom. The brain fog, the itchy ears, the stubborn weight, the bloating that shows up even when you’re eating “right” and still end up with 20 different answers and zero real direction.

That’s the problem with trying to figure this out alone.
Your body is shifting, your hormones are changing, and Google can’t tell you what’s actually going on underneath all of it.
It can’t tell you what your body needs next.

What does help?
A plan that matches this stage of your life, not the one you were following at 22.
Support that takes your hormones, stress, and recovery into account.
Small, doable steps that help your body feel steadier instead of overwhelmed.

That’s exactly what we focus on inside the Health Your Way Membership. A plan that works for YOU, not something outdated, unsustainable, or cookie-cutter.

Our Black Friday special is live through December 7th. If there was ever a better time to join, it is today. You can choose a welcome gift that supports your hormones, energy, and lymphatic flow:

💜 a vibration plate
or
💜 a rebounder trampoline

If you’re tired of piecing this together on your own (or relying on Google to explain symptoms your body has been trying to tell you about), this might be the support you’ve been missing.

👉 Comment GOOGLE or message me, and I’ll send you the details.

Happy Thanksgiving, beautiful friends,

As I’ve been sitting here this morning, I'm feeling incredibly grateful. Grateful for the women I’ve been honored to coach, the ones who have trusted me with their stories, their struggles, their goals, and their bodies.
You’ve let me walk beside you as you reclaim your energy, your confidence, and your sense of self.
That is never lost on me.

I’m grateful for the clients who joined me back when I was just beginning all the way up to the new ones who are just getting started.
Your wins become my wins.
Your breakthroughs remind me why I do this work.

And I’m grateful for my own health.
For the way my body shows up for me every single day.
For the strength it gives me, the energy it protects, the signals it sends when something is off.
It’s not perfect, and neither am I, but I’m thankful for a body that lets me move, love, care for others, dream big, and do the work I feel called to do.

As we settle into this season of comfort foods, full schedules, and family gatherings, I want to remind you gently of something important:
You are allowed to enjoy the day.
You are allowed to slow down.
And you are allowed to take care of yourself even when life gets busy.

You are the kind of woman who leads her life with intention.
Who shows up for her family, her career, and herself.
Who honors her health not out of guilt, but out of love.

If you’ve been feeling disconnected from your body…
If you’ve been tired, bloated, overwhelmed, or unsure where to even begin…
Just know you’re not alone. And you don’t have to figure it out by yourself.

Here's to your and my health and happiness,
Mary Louise 💜

The day before Thanksgiving has its own kind of energy.

A little bit cozy, a little bit chaotic, and somehow… a lot for your body to carry.

You’re juggling the grocery run, the meal prep, the family plans, and the last-minute details, all while trying to keep your energy stable and your mood steady.

And underneath all of that, there’s this quiet hope that you’ll actually get to enjoy the season, not just survive it.

If today feels like a mix of overwhelm and wanting things to feel good, you’re in good company.

A lot of women feel this tug, wanting meaningful moments while also feeling stretched thin.

I’ve been feeling it too.

There are some changes coming over the next few months (bittersweet ones), and it’s made me pay more attention to the moments that help me slow down and actually be present.

Fresh air.
A quiet morning.
A warm drink before the day gets loud.
Spending extra time with my loved ones.
Little things that make the season feel like something I get to experience, not just manage.

So if today feels heavier than you expected, here’s your reminder:

You don’t need to hold the whole day together on your own or hide your stress and fatigue.

Stop pretending you’re fine when your body is clearly asking for a little more care.

Soak up whatever feels good today, and everything else, let it be imperfect.

Share this reminder with a friend 💜

It’s tonight, are you joining us? 🚨

If you’ve been feeling tired, foggy, stressed, or like your body’s changed without your permission… tonight’s class is going to make so much click into place.

We’re breaking down the health myths we grew up believing, the ones that worked in our 20s but are quietly working against us now.

Low-fat, low-carb, “eat less, move more,” hustle through the fatigue… all of it.
You’ll walk away understanding what your body is actually trying to tell you, and what to do next to feel better without restriction or burnout.

👉 Drop TONIGHT and I’ll send you the link.

If you’ve ever bounced between low-fat and low-carb and still felt tired, hungry, and stuck… you’re not the problem.

Most of us grew up thinking diets were a switch.
Flip to low-fat when you want to “clean things up.”
Flip to low-carb when you want to “burn fat.”
Repeat until frustrated. 😩

And for a while, it kind of worked.
Until it didn’t.

Because the truth is:
Both of those approaches ignore the very thing that runs your energy, your mood, and your metabolism.
Your hormones.

Low-fat leaves you exhausted and craving everything.
Low-carb leaves you wired, foggy, and stressed.
Neither one gives you the steady energy your body actually wants right now.

If you’ve been doing everything right and still don’t feel like yourself, it’s not because you need another diet.
It’s because your body has different needs than it did at 25.
And no one ever told you that.

On Wednesday, I’m teaching a free masterclass where we’re breaking down the myths that keep women tired, overwhelmed, and confused about their own bodies.

Strong, Smart & Misled: Women’s Health Myths Keeping You Tired, Stressed, and Stuck.

If you’re ready for clarity instead of guessing… come join us.
Your body will thank you for it.

“You’re just getting older.”

That’s what so many women hear when they bring up exhaustion, weight changes, or brain fog.
But what they’re really being told is:

“Stop asking questions.”

And that’s not okay.

Aging isn’t the problem.
Imbalance is.

What you’re feeling with the brain fog, the mood swings, itchy ears, and the stubborn weight, it isn’t your body breaking down.
It’s your body asking for a different kind of support.

Because perimenopause isn’t a disease.
It’s a transition, and when you understand what’s happening underneath, you can work with your body instead of fighting it.

If you’ve been told “it’s just aging,” I want you to know:
You’re not making it up, and you don’t have to just live with it.

Join me on Wednesday, Nov 19th, for a free masterclass:

Strong, Smart & Misled: Women’s Health Myths Keeping You Tired, Stressed, and Stuck
Get the truth and the tools to finally build the steady energy your body’s been craving.

We’ll be having a conversation on the different myths we have when it comes to health and what we can do about it.
