Send us a textAlright, friends, let's talk straight: if you're over 40 and still slogging through random workouts, obsessing over fad diets, or clinging to those cute little 5lb dumbbells… we need to have a heart-to-heart.This episode is the replay of a live presentation I gave to over 2,600 women (yeah, the Zoom room actually maxed out, wild). And I didn't hold back. Because here's the truth: what worked in your 20s isn't going to cut it anymore. And no, it's not because you're “broken” or “too old.” It's because most of us are making the same three mistakes that keep us stuck spinning our wheels.We're going deep into why muscle is the closest thing you've got to a fountain of youth and why building it is about so much more than looking jacked in your tank top (although that's a solid perk). From metabolism to brain health to literally not falling on your face in your 70s, this stuff matters.I'll walk you through the three shifts you have to make if you want to get strong, stay healthy, and actually see results from the work you're putting in. Spoiler: it's not about trying harder; it's about finally doing the right things in the right way.So if you've ever thought, “Ugh, I'm working so hard and nothing's happening…” this one's for you. You are stronger than you think. And it's time to prove it.What's Inside:Why strength training is non-negotiable for women over 40 (hint: it's way beyond “toning”)The three most common mistakes that keep women stuck and how to fix them once and for allThe truth about protein, carbs, and what your body actually needs to fuel muscle growthReal-life transformations from women who ditched diet culture and finally got strong AFSo let me ask you… what would getting strong mean for you? More confidence in the gym, finally feeling good in your body, or maybe just proving to yourself that it's not “too late”? Whatever it is, I want to hear it. Come hang with me on Instagram and tell me what being strong AF looks like in your world.Mentioned in this episode:Healthy As Fck*Oonagh Duncan on InstagramFit Feels Good Strong AFLeave me a voice note on Speak Pipe!

Sometimes the reason you're not doing the thing to you need or want to do…is because you've made it way too complicated.I realized recently I'd turned a simple daily habit into a whole production — the “perfect” setup, the ideal conditions, all the steps to make it better — until it became so much work that I stopped doing it completely.In this episode, I'm sharing:The sneaky way I overcomplicated something I'd been doing for yearsHow chasing “perfect” often kills our ability to show up at allThe good/better/best framework I use with clients to strip things down to the minimum viable versionHow to create your own “do less” plan so you can actually follow throughIf doing less makes you feel uncomfortable—like you're not doing enough—this episode will begin to change the way you think about making progress.Connect with JordanaFind me on InstagramSign up for my Monday newsletter with lots of nutrition, body image and mindset tipsSchedule a free discovery call to talk more about working together Listen to more episodes of The Diet Diaries

Apparenty there's a couple of clowns in clown make-up out there leaving reviews of my book that are far less than accurate or true.  They're saying things to deliberately deter people from reading.  I guanrantee it's a particular group, and I think you know who.  If you look at the reviews on Amazon from people who actually read the book and have more than ad hominem attacks to deliver, and if the comprehension level of the reader is such that they don't simply mock what they can't put together in their own head, then what I say on broadcasts and what I write and how I write are well above the vast majority of writers who simply capitalize on something they term "conspiracy genre."  I call it friggin history when I write about it.  Because I go through the effort others don't to not rehash bullshit.  They're cowards taking advantage of the anonymity of the internet and shielding themselves behind computers.  Get My Book and More here:https://SemperFryLLC.comPods & Exclusives AD-FREE!

I was on the road working with a client last week. And the CEO there asked me the most awesome question that I was super excited to answer. The minute we had the conversation, I knew it was one that we needed to have on the podcast as well, because it applies to absolutely every direct service nonprofit.I was on-site to help the client develop some advocacy strategies that were focused on specific desired results, involving particular decisionmaking bodies. But in the course of the conversation, the CEO said to me, “I'm so seeing the value of this work and how much impact it can have when we have a focused team working on a specific advocacy goal. It makes me think, what can we do to train every member of our staff to include advocacy as part of their jobs? Because I'm realizing it's just like we tell them that fundraising is part of everybody's job. It's everybody's job to build financial support for the organization in their personal circles or wherever they travel. I want that for advocacy as well. How do you do that?”That's exactly the right question to ask. What I shared with her was, there are three core skills every staff member is going to need, and you're going to have to train them. And I can tell you how. In this episode, we share:How one nonprofit staff member turned a chance encounter with a decisionmaker into a big winThe three core skills your team members need in order to be effective at basic advocacyThe most valuable advocacy skill you can teach your team, that will serve them everywhere in their lifeHow to create an organizational culture that will support advocacy work by allThe most common organizational culture elements that can inadvertently undermine your efforts, and how to solve themThe natural and intuitive messaging and engagement approach that will be easy for every team member to learn and use effectively Help spread the word! If you found value in this episode, I'd be grateful if you would leave a review on iTunes or wherever you listen. Your reviews help other nonprofit leaders find the podcast.  Thanks!!  

Send us a textWelcome back to Embrace Midlife! In this candid solo episode, I'm opening up about a chapter of my life that many of you have asked me to expand on — my drinking career. If you've listened to the very first episodes of the podcast, you've heard the beginnings of my story. But today, I go deeper — sharing the real, raw timeline of how drinking wove its way into my life, from my 20s through midlife, motherhood, business, breast cancer, and beyond.I reflect on how I didn't drink much as a teen, how my drinking habits evolved during my marriage to a professional sportsman, and the way loneliness, postnatal depression, and life transitions led to more frequent and excessive drinking in my 30s and 40s.I also talk about the rise of mummy wine culture, my battles with mental health (including postnatal depression and hospitalization), the breast cancer diagnosis that changed everything, and how I used alcohol to numb, cope, and escape. I reveal the moments that became turning points — the scary symptoms, the heartfelt text to my family, the visit to my long-time GP — and how those steps eventually led me toward sobriety and sober curiosity.This episode is Part 1 of a two-part series that leads into next season's focus: The Sober Curious Season.If you're a woman in midlife navigating your own relationship with alcohol, this episode may feel like looking in a mirror.

In Episode 252, we talk about how our “Culture of Empowerment” at D2C came about; our PASSION for PARTNERS finding their EMPOWERMENT . . . (and addicts of course, but this episode is about partners)The seeming BLARING CONTRADICTION of a betrayed partner “owning her side of the street”!—Betrayed partners find themselves in a variety of situations—The addict partner is not engaged in recovery at allThe addict partner is kind of half-in-half outThe addict partner is working it hard and consistent, but the betrayed partner feels like she's “lagging behind” (which is a “misnomer,” VERY common and a natural, normal part of healing and increasing safetyWhat does it mean to “LIVE IN EMPOWERMENT”?First, what does it NOT mean? It in NO way means that:The addict's behaviors are in ANY way the fault of the betrayed partner—she did not cause this; she does not deserve it; she is NOT responsible to “fix it” and indeed CANNOTALL of the betrayed partner's feelings are LEGITIMATE and MUST be heard, acknowledged, validated and addressed.The addict partner absolutely MUST face, own and actively pursue HIS SIDE OF THE STREET.What IS empowerment for a Betrayed Partner—Here is the definition we use in the “D2C Culture of Empowerment”—Here at D2C, our goal is to help you claim your right & power to create and collaborate in your own change, growth & serenity—to EMPOWER YOU! What are the essential elements for a Betrayed Partner to move into and consistently live in a place of empowerment?Have a healthy, safe, supportive space to express your FULL feelings WHATEVER they may be and WHY you are feeling them (“What is under this?”) NOTE: this support, at least for a good while,  is nearly NEVER your addict partner!) Examples include—Support Group; Therapist; trusted/safe family member/friend; Dare to Connect . . . Response–ability & Account–abitilty: we cannot change what we cannot own. Recognizing “my next right thing” in ANY situation is critical to staying in a place of empowerment. Refusing to be pigeon-holed into a victim role means recognizing my options, whatever they may be, in ANY situation. There are ALWAYS choices, even if those choices are uncomfortable.Become VERY clear and specific about your Authentic Wants & Needs in your individual life and in the relationship. Learn the skills to express these in a healthy way.Surround your wants and needs with clear, specific BOUNDARIES and couple these with VERY clear, specific outcomes/consequences—NOT to control his side of the street, but to keep your authentic self, wants and needs protected.KEY—a betrayed partner living in empowerment does NOT in ANY way release the addict from ANY level of responsibility and accountability—in fact, it actually places those things MORE on his shoulders and STRICTLY on his side of the street.Also—what an addict chooses to do or not do, does NOT control whether or not the betrayed partner can or will live an EMPOWERED LIFE. What it DOES directly impact is whether or not the couple can COLLABORATE, be a team, have each other's backs and BE COMPATIBLE.  For a summary article from the transcript of this podcast, go to:  "As a Betrayed Partner, How do I Live "Empowered" Regardless of what my Addict Partner Does or Does Not Do?"Find out more about Steve Moore at:  Ascension CounselingLearn more about Mark Kastleman at:  Reclaim Counseling Services 

Women have to tread cautiously online - even on LinkedIn, a space that in theory should be safe for everyone to make genuine, professional connections. But allegations against prominent tech founder Richard White - aka “LinkedIn Lecher” - that have emerged this week demonstrate the risk women face on the social media platform.Elsewhere in this week's episode, Angela Priestley and Tarla Lambert-Patel also discuss the incredible bravery of Gisèle Pélicot, after her recent testimony in court. (A warning to our listeners - this story contains some distressing content, including references to rape and sexual assault. Skip from 10 mins 44 secs to 17 mins 1 sec to avoid this content.)Plus - male journalists are writing more front page news articles than women. But are we surprised?Finally, thank you to everyone who attended the Women's Agenda Leadership Awards this week! We share some of our highlights here.

A conversation is a delicate dance between two people. From one to the other, stories slowly unravel, surprises are met, ideas come to life, and life is learnt as words flow freely between us. But to make a conversation great, we must relish the silences, the questions, and the spaces in between - because it is only with curiosity and presence that we can take the conversation to places we never imagined.This week, I am in conversation with me, myself, and I for a special solo episode on the lost art of conversation.

Have you ever considered the environmental impact of the non-solar components we deploy in the solar industry? It's good that we generate clean energy, and even better that we quantify the embodied energy of things like the solar panels we use. But, it takes a relatively “dirty” and old-fashioned industry to actually deliver those solar modules - logistics. And, one of the lowest-common-denominator, least-thought-about products in the logistics toolkit is a century-old ‘technology' made of wood…the pallet. While essential for transporting solar panels (among millions of other products), these pallets contribute to significant waste (over 6,000 pounds of wood waste per megawatt); they also emit on average about 8kg of CO2 per unit! Millions of wooden pallets end up in landfills each year. Worse still, the breakage of solar panels during transport costs the industry billions. This overlooked issue impacts both profitability and sustainability, reducing the overall positive impact of the clean energy sector's green footprint.During his 15 years in the solar industry, Philip Schwarz has witnessed the waste, costs, inefficiencies, and safety issues associated with using wooden pallets. Inspired by a napkin sketch from his original co-founder, Philip went all-in on the potential for reusable packaging in the solar industry. The resulting company, PVpallet, has grown to become the industry's leading provider of reusable packaging solutions.There are numerous lessons to be learned throughout this conversation:The novel engineering behind their reusable pallet designHow PVpallet uses reverse logistics and recycled materials to improve customers' ESG scoresWhy product innovation is a costly endeavor, and how they almost lost it allThe underlying economics that make this product make sense (and why people are still resistant to change)Queue up this innovator's story if you're looking for inspiration to help you build your dream. By the way, Philip has also built a great culture and is Always looking for good people. ;-)If you want to connect with today's guest, you'll find links to his contact info in the show notes on the blog at https://mysuncast.com/suncast-episodes/.Our Platinum Presenting Sponsor for SunCast is CPS America!SunCast is proudly supported by Trina Solar.You can learn more about all the sponsors who help make this show free for you at www.mysuncast.com/sponsors.Remember, you can always find resources, learn more about today's guest and explore recommendations, book links, and more than 650 other founder stories and startup advice at www.mysuncast.com.Subscribe to Valence, our weekly LinkedIn Newsletter, and learn the elements of compelling storytelling: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/valence-content-that-connects-7145928995363049472/You can connect with me, Nico Johnson, on:Twitter - https://www.twitter.com/nicomeo
