Double Espresso With Dee: Inspiring Stories of Change and Personal Growth
My guest is the fabuIous Second Curver Bobbi Parker Hall, fitness entrepreneur and wellness coach who shares her inspiring journey and how she motivates individuals of all ages to become the best version of themselves. Bobbi shares some of her second curving secrets which I hope will also motivate you. We cover all bases on challenging times from the menopause to major upheavals in her marriage. Despite the obstacles, Bobbi discovered strength through fitness and exercise, which became her guiding light. Bobbi's story is a reminder to me and hopefully to you of the power of perseverance, the importance of pushing past self-doubt and crucially, learning how to invest in ourselves so we can shine. We touched upon the stigma surrounding ageing particularly for women and the need for society to embrace the fact that women can be beautiful and vibrant at any age. Age 50 is the new 30. Bobbi also talks about her latest second curve, as she goes through a new moment of growth and transformation which is so life-enhancing to hear about. “Patience is the name of the game when you are transforming.” Bobbi's story will inspire you to take risks, embrace change and second curve. Her unwavering determination serves as a powerful reminder that it's never too late to embark on a new chapter and make positive changes and that the most important thing is to believe that you can do it. "It's just stepping into that empowerment and then all of a sudden, things just open up for you." Guest contact info: Instagram | Facebook We would love to hear from you.

Recently, I had the honor of interviewing a truly remarkable woman on my podcast - Kim Rahir, a 60-year-old competitive Olympic weightlifter. Kim's incredible journey began in her late forties when she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS). Despite her neurologist's warnings to “take it slow,” Kim walked straight from his office into the gym, determined to reclaim power over her body. What began as a small act of defiance soon transformed into a lifelong passion. As Kim devoted herself to weight training, she grew measurably stronger and healthier, astonishing her doctors with her recovery. They credited her dedication to strength training and proper nutrition with successfully managing her MS when other options had failed. By her early fifties, Kim was getting strong and learning Olympic lifts under an experienced coach. Now, just over a decade later, Kim is redefining what is physically possible after 50. Last year, at age 60, she won a silver medal in Olympic weightlifting at the European Masters Championship. During our podcast interview, Kim eloquently dispelled prevailing myths surrounding age and athleticism. With her dedication to diet and intense training, she is living proof that maintaining supreme fitness well into retirement age is achievable. Her energy and lust for life moved me deeply. She encouraged my audience to ignore the doubters and recognize that transformative growth remains possible at any age. At 60, as she trains for upcoming international contests, Kim Rahir exemplifies grace, wisdom, and mighty strength - both inner and outer. Hers is the story not of youthful potential but of a maturity that empowers and enriches our second acts.

It's been five years since I got into the "fitness over 50" game -- and five years since I first met Dan Ritchie and the Functional Aging Institute.So, when Dan asked me to speak last week at an FAI gathering in Nashville last week, my thoughts turned to "then" and "now." I spoke about 5 points of communications in the over-50 market that were true then -- and 5 that are new today. Change is scary sometimes. But it comes whether we like it or not. So, I wanted to take this opportunity to remind gym & studio owners that they need to keep their eyes and minds open while evaluating what comes along, what happens, and what's worth their attention.ResourcesFunctional Aging InstituteMy new course to motivate men over 50 to get off the couch and into fitnessLife Priority Supplements -- Affiliate Discount hereFunctional Aging Institute -- Use FAIMM50 discount codePrime Fit Content – Engage the over-50 market

My guest is Mimi Ison, an athlete, influencer and founder of Hey Middle Age. At age 60, Mimi is pushing herself physically almost every day: boxing and dancing and lifting weights and flying on a trapeze and doing a myriad of other activities that will blow you away. Mimi wants you to realize it's never too late to discover new things about yourself and challenge your body in exciting new ways. To find activities that light you up. And to exceed your expectations of what you are capable of. Like the rest of us, Mimi has also been through some messy midlife stuff.

During this episode Mimi divulges: What happened the first time she walked onto a boxing ring How she got through a physically and emotionally difficult period in her 50s Why she took a pause to listen to her body and take better care of herself The big revelation she had on her recent "big" birthday Why she thinks it's OK for women to care and talk about their looks Why she started her blog as a gift to herself, and how her Instagram turned her into an influencer almost overnight How she overcame the fear of putting herself out there and why she's saying "yes" to more opportunities these days Why she did an unpaid internship in her 40s, and the freedom she gained from being a beginner in midlife What "working out" means to her now, how she makes strength training fun, and how she keeps injuries from derailing her fitness goals Mimi also tells you how you can find an activity or workout that fits your lifestyle, and she shares her top three tips on how to love and celebrate your body right now—no matter where you are on your fitness journey.

I just got back last night from the first professional conference I've been to since before the pandemic. You know how these things are. If you're lucky, there are so many smart people around, great ideas are flying by you one after the other, and you leave with a head full of information, perspectives and contacts. Now, Im going to share some of that information on the show today – the bits that struck me as being relevant for gym and studio owners who are working with people ove 50 and want to grow their businesses.Chief among them -- the 'Fans First' approach behind the wild success of the Savannah Bananas baseball team, and how what we can learn from it in promoting fitness over 50.Life Priority Supplements -- Affiliate Discount hereNaamly – Support our advertiser, who helps you keep in touch with your membersFunctional Aging Institute -- Use FAIMM50 discount codePrime Fit Content – Engage the over-50 market

A lot of people have similar insecurities around writing as they do around money. That's true for fitness professionals as much as it is for anyone. And this week on the Optimal Aging podcast, I'm talking about all of that and more with Billy Hofacker on Billy's podcast, Your Fitness Money Coach.Billy's a gym owner in Long Island and caters to the over-50 market. He's also a financial coach for other fitness business owners. He welcomed me onto his show recently, and I liked the resulting conversation so much that I want to share it with you here.We have different backgrounds on all of this, but again, the similarities between communications and finances are striking -- more accurately, the similarities between COMMON INSECURITIES about communications and finances are striking.Billy and I talk about money, we talk about marketing, we talk about some of the insecurities that drive us, and that maybe drive you , as well. I hope you enjoy the conversation.ResourcesYour Fitness Money Coach podcastBilly on FacebookLife Priority Supplements -- Affiliate Discount hereNaamly – Support our advertiser, who helps you keep in touch with your membersFunctional Aging Institute -- Use FAIMM50 discount codePrime Fit Content – Engage the over-50 market
What kind of exercise should we — and shouldn't we — be doing after we enter our 5th decade?Alicia Jones, founder of Alicia Jones Healthy Living has the answers and 15 years of experience transforming the health and lives of women over 50 through fitness and weight loss strategies. All backed up with lots of credentials in many different fitness modalities and kinesiology.One reason I'm hosting Alicia is her realistic — and safe — approach to fitness for busy women really of any age but her specialty is the midlife woman.Our conversation focused mainly on the importance of strength training and what that means, especially if you are also in the throws of the perimenopause hormone roller coaster.We discussed beginner exercise to build muscle and strength—chair squats and arm rows—nothing crazy there.Walking, of course, and if you are a walker and can add a bit more to a walk, find some hills, speed it up a bit.High intensity interval training for those that can add some in. If you're not familiar with this type of exercise, this article explains it all. An often ignored benefit of HIIT is that it shortens the time needed to get max benefits.Although not specifically about exercise Alicia echoed something I've talked about many times; finding a doc or practitioner that will listen to you and work with you to resolve symptoms whether from hormone fluctuations or lifestyle choices. Don't let anyone dismiss you with “Tough it out, this will pass.” It might but why should you suffer in the meantime?Alicia loves plank. So do I. Why? Because it uses all of the core muscles as well as leg and arm muscles in one easy to learn—not so easy to hold—exercise.With sore wrists of late I've had to mix my full arm plank with forearm plank. Just as effective and a bit harder.When I asked Alicia if we women should work out every day, work out harder to keep the pounds at bay, or work out when we are tired, she answered loudly, “NO!” “Let your body rest and heal. And imagine that is literally when your body is repairing to a new level of strength.”Other things we talked about How stress impacts our health and our weight loss efforts How sit ups might be contributing to that sneeze-leak thing you're experiencing Losing weight realistically and for health vs fitting into some those old jeans How fluid fluctuations can impact the number on the scale and why you need to let it go Why we hate the BMI as a measure of health—and why it's dangerousAlicia's websiteShe has a number of programs, learn about them here. She's got a free challenge on that page if you are just getting started or want to figure out how to start and get motivated.You can find her on Insta and Facebook.I would check out Alicia's programs if you want to improve your strength and or lose weight safely and for the long haul. She's got a great energy and will meet you where you are.

Here's a story for every gym or studio owner who says he doesn't have time to manage an email list or send out emails to prospects and clients on a regular basis. For Paulo Andalaft of Fit Factor in Fort Lauderdale, one email he sent in 2017 has brought in hundreds of thousands of dollars in ongoing revenue – and is still generating new referral clients right now. That's right. One email = hundreds of thousands of dollars in revenue. How's that possible?

It's been two generations since fitness became part of the broader culture, but still most of us don't exercise regularly.We see evidence of fitness everywhere – from gyms and studios to home workout equipment, from wearables like Apple watches to “athleisure” clothing like Lululemon.Fitness today is a $100 billion industry worldwide, which means countless ordinary people exercise for the sake of exercising. They know it's good for them. They know it will help them lead better, longer lives. They know it's fun.But it wasn't always like that. Until about 40 years ago, fitness facilities weren't common. Celebrities weren't super-fit. People smoked cigarettes – a lot. The idea of “fitness over 50” hadn't been coined.But there's still generational difference in this awareness, particularly among older Baby Boomers who came of age before fitness was so common.And we need to remember that gap — or learn about it — when trying to sell fitness over 50 — or maybe more to the point here, people over 70 or so.Highlights2:10 -- Your grandparents never exercised just because4:10 -- 'Flashdance' and 'Rocky' made muscle sexy6:35 -- Entering a gym for millions of older people?

You've got to get out there in your community, network, promote, educate, and tell your story, over and over.

Are you nervous about retirement? If you're already there, are you enjoying yourself?As much as we might want to focus just on exercise and diet, finances are a big part of our overall wellbeing, too. And for many people over 50, the thought of retiring can be stressful. Even if they have done what they need to, they still wonder — will it be enough? Will I be able to live how I want to live? Am I in good shape?It sounds a lot like the conversations we have with ourselves and clients about exercise, doesn't it? That's not the only similarity. Financial fitness comes from making decisions based on values, sticking with them in general but being open to modifications, and remaining consistent over time.How many trainers have given similar advice to new fitness clients?I want to talk about financial fitness here from time to time And I thought a good way to start would be with a financial planner. Murs Tariq is partner at Peace of Mind Wealth Management In Raleigh, North Carolina, and co-host of the Secure your Retirement podcast.We cover a lot of ground — on common fears, smart strategies, and concerns you might have as an entrepreneur about topics like succession planning. I hope you'll find it thought provoking — and if you don't have a retirement plan or someone to help you make one, there's never a better time to start than now.

Tim Lyons is a fitness entrepreneur on the move. He opened his own gym in Scottsdale, Arizona, then started coaching other gym owners on how to succeed. He wrote a book called Good to Grow and hosts a podcast with the same name. And, as if all that's not enough, he's a frequent speaker at conferences and even produces his own Growth Summits, including one that's coming up this fall in Nashville.I've known Tim for a couple of years now, and I'm always struck by how helpful and open he is. I know this graciousness is part of the reason for his success, too.But I'd never spent a great deal of time talking with him, or learning his story — how a former football player, and still a devoted fan, discovered his marketing talents and parlayed them into this array of business enterprises. He also knows the value of the over-50 demographic, which we discuss — as well as the importance of content that speaks effectively to them.Sometimes I hear from young men who want to learn to write better and to promote their own personal brand. I'm always happy to help. And Tim Lyons is someone who's done it.
