What We Discuss In This Episode: Perimenopause and Menopause Challenges  Symptoms can start earlier than many doctors recognize (e.g. while still having periods)   Standard tests like FSH are often insufficient; timing and interpretation matter   Hysterectomy can accelerate onset of menopausal symptoms, even with ovaries intact   Hot flashes persist for ~50% of women post-menopause Long-Term Hormone Therapy Considerations Dr. Lyster advocates continued low-dose hormone use for bone health, etc.  Notes estrogen may lower breast cancer risk, contrary to common belief Emphasizes bioidentical hormones as safest option Stresses hormone needs change over time; dosages often decrease post-menopause Key Strategies for Thriving in Midlife Prioritize and protect sleep quality Self-advocate with doctors; come prepared with questions Reject the notion of "just getting older" as excuse for symptoms Maintain positive mindset about aging and potential for vitality Supplementation Recommendations Vitamin D (actually a hormone) B12 (especially for metabolism/weight management) Magnesium (helpful for sleep, migraines) Adrenal support supplements Melatonin (for some; individual response varies) Cautions against low-quality retail supplements   Free Resource from Dr. Liz Lyster: Thrive at any stage in life: https://drlizmd.com/free-book Join The Miracle of Menopause Community: https://drlizmd.com/miracle-of-menopause   Connect With Dr. Liz Lyster: Website: https://drlizmd.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrLizLyster Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drlizlyster LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drlizmd/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/thedrlizlyster   Connect with Lynne: If you're looking for a community of like-minded women on a journey - just like you are - to improved health and wellness, overall balance, and increased confidence, check out Lynne's private community in The Energized Healthy Women's Club.

Send us a textArlene Cohen Miller is an attorney who now helps others through her work-life balance coaching and transformational mentoring. She shares her journey and the tools she uses to live her best life. Arlene shares her reasons for leaving her marriage and how she had to grow up very quickly in her career and life. She talks about becoming aware of the tools we already have to nurture ourselves as much as we nurture others. She became aware of this need at a young age when she saw her own mother giving so much to her kids that she had to be told to get herself some new clothes.  One of the "aha" moments that she shares is taking the idea of choosing gratitude aspect a step further than just listing out what you are thankful for. Taking the time to actually feel what you are grateful for is much more meaningful and gives you a strong foundation to move forward.

Today's episode is starring me, Jacquie Court. I have shared so many stories from experts and amazing women but I've never really shared my own. In fact, my story is the reason I started She2.0 because I didn't want anyone else to suffer.  From our first period to our last, we need support, education and resources. However, that was not my experience - during my period, pregnancies or menopause. Today I'm sharing a few things I learned along my journey and I'm busting a few myths I'm tired of women hearing.  Tune in!

We all deal with anxiety in different ways - for this week's guest, Mindfulness was a life saver.https://www.mindfulmidlifecrisis.com/ Billy Lahr is an intentional living and mindfulness coach, certified personal trainer, former educator, and serial overthinker.  Billy is also the host of The Mindful Midlife Crisis, a podcast for people navigating the complexities and possibilities of life's second half.  Billy spent 21 years as an educator but experienced burnout due to budding mental health concerns, social media harassment from students, and a lack of job satisfaction.  In 2021, Billy left his job as dean of students in order to travel the world in search of meaningful experiences and community.  Since then, he's been a GPS for those seeking purpose and passion by helping them identify strengths, explore curiosities, synergize with their crew, and cultivate consistency, discipline, patience, and self-compassion. In this conversation, Billy talks about his experience of anxiety and overcoming it, traveling, and why finding your curiosity, your strengths and needs and your community is far more valuable to finding your purpose than “finding your passion”. Passion is something you discover as a by product of purpose rather than an end in itself.If you've enjoyed this conversation, PLEASE LIKE & SUBSCRIBE. Thank you for your support!About the Midlife and Beyond Podcast.  Like all transitions, midlife can be messy & sad & glorious all at once, leaving many midlife women feeling rather alone & somewhat invisible. But what does this transition we are experiencing lead to?I'm Jo Blackwell, a photographer, author and coach for women who want more from their lives post 50 and I'm here to remind you that if we manage our health and embrace it, growing older can lead to one of the greatest periods of growth and transformation of our lives.The Midlife Movement was created to change minds about midlife and growing older, one story at a time.

Welcome back to another episode of Midlife Revival!In this episode, Dr. Miller explores the theme of pivoting and dreaming anew in midlife.While some of us desire a return to our past selves when perimenopause  arrives, perhaps it is in the “pause” of perimenopause that provides our opportunity to dream again. In this episode, we learn three strategies to become a dreamer in your midlife journey:1. Brain Dump and Resist Self-Editing:   - Dr. Miller shares her experience of envisioning a future day without editing.   - Encourages listeners to brainstorm specific desires without self-editing.2. Assessing Loss and Gain:   - Prompts listeners to consider potential losses and gains in the process of pivoting.   - Advises confronting worst-case scenarios and questioning their actual impact.3. Worst Case Scenario Reflection:   - Shares a coaching experience on challenging worst-case scenarios.   - Encourages listeners to objectively assess fears and recognize their true impact.Ready to embrace the “pause” and start dreaming again for your midlife pivot? Schedule your 1:1 Discovery call to see if my coaching program can support you in perimnenopause and beyond. I help perimenopausal women of color overcome the bothersome symptoms of perimenopause so that they can get back to dreaming and going after a life that they truly deserve. Book your call: https://calendly.com/taniquamd/discovery-call-for-boundless-midlifeFollow Dr Taniqua Miller on Instagram @taniquamillermd and Revival Telemedicine @joinrevival.*** Interested in booking your own menopausal consultation?

Key Moments“Aesthetics was a goal of mine, but more importantly, as I had gained weight, my health declined. And what did that look like? I became pre-diabetic. I started having joint pain in my knees specifically. Unfortunately, I have 50 stairs from the ground level to my front door. I had to go up and down the stairs every day.”“Before, I wasn't even very good about getting my blood work done regularly. Now I do it twice a year. That's a huge part of my health regimen. I take supplements based on what my blood work says. And I think you have to be intentional like this if you want to age strong and healthy and vibrant.”“They see me muscular and in a bikini. And at 53, they say ‘that's not what someone should be doing.' I do feel there is some of this ageism in those comments. I really do feel that. I also think we're very focused on: ‘well, you were fine before. Why did you do that?' – I wasn't fine. Right. I was pre-diabetic. I woke up exhausted. I felt like crap most days, right? My quality of life was poor. So I think we need to get beyond what we see and realize that this was a health journey.”Connect with DeniseRebellion BodyContactInstagram

Schedule a free midlife style breakthrough call here:  https://calendly.com/afton-porter/minisession Show Notes: We are told that we should increase our self love and body image but how do you actually do it? You've tried positive affirmation but it feels like a lie because you don't believe what you are saying.  It's just so far off then what you are currently saying to yourself about you and your body in your internal dialog. This week's episode of the Midlife Style School is  here to help bridge that gap.  Our focus is on "Overcoming Body Image Struggles."  I delve into practical strategies and tools you can use to gradually shift your perspective and foster a healthier relationship with your body. As you become more comfortable and accepting of your body, you'll discover that this newfound love and appreciation for yourself can positively influence all areas of your life.  It's a powerful transformation that can inspire you to make a positive impact in ways you never thought possible.  

What if we've spent most of our lives doing what's expected of us, rather than listening to what our heart is telling us? What if we decided to follow our instincts and break free of the things that are no longer serving us? Is that even possible in our 40s, 50s, 60s and beyond? Today's guest found out when she retired early from a coveted job as a public school librarian to become a romance novelist, podcaster and midlife community builder. Patti Denier says she's always been inclined to follow her "true north," but motherhood and responsibility made her play it safe for many years in a coveted job that many people told her she'd be crazy to quit. But she did. In her 50s. During this fun heart-to-heart, Patti and I chat about many things, including: Why she allowed herself to quit her job and what she decided to pursue instead How her writing, podcasting and the midlife community's she built changed her life Why she wanted to help rebrand aging and encourage midlifers to change their approach to their second act Why Patti thinks we need to push ourselves just a little—and give ourselves permission to change our minds and/or forge a new path How we can stop caring about what others think (finally!) and step into our power What we want younger women to know about menopause, our changing bodies, and aging How solo travel has been an important part of Patti's midlife journey How we need to embrace life's uncertainty instead of fearing it What we've each learned as we've aged, and how we handle adversity differently now What the recent loss of her father has taught Patti about how she needs to live now The meaning of life (yes, you heard that right–we may have figured it out right here on the show!) You're going to love this down-to-earth conversation with wise and wonderful Patti. Full show notes available at Morebeautifulproject.com.

Find out what's stopping you from feeling more beautiful:  free mini-session Have you ever looked in the mirror and felt less than beautiful? Perhaps you've spent hours trying to perfect your look, running from one shopping trip to the next for that 'magic' makeover. You may have even considered plastic surgery - anything, just to try and feel good about yourself. But despite all these efforts, do you still feel like something is missing? If so, it might be time to take a look inside yourself instead of just searching externally - because no matter what kind of makeover we can offer; true beauty starts within. In this podcast episode, we'll explore how self-love is key in unlocking our inner beauty - and step away from being reliant on external factors that just don't last. The journey to feeling beautiful is a process. We can tend to the outside all we want and still not feel beautiful on the inside. Understanding why we can't make ourselves beautiful by changing our appearances and delving into what lies beneath the surface is how true beauty blossoms. It's not about having it all together, but rather it's allowing ourselves to think deeply about why we don't feel good enough so that this can be addressed head-on. Taking accountability for our internal dialogue and its impact on our day-to-day life is a powerful tool for reshaping our thoughts around beauty. By creating a plan to love yourself more, we are taking an active role in feeling beautiful from within. If you're ready to make some real changes today, schedule a free mini-session today.

Sometimes we don't recognize ourselves, and sometimes we long for the woman we once were. Has this happened to you?Cam and Amelia discuss the dizzying time in midlife when we begin to shift our perspective from our 30-something self, to our beautiful, strong and confident midlife self. I say this with a little tongue-in-cheek because oftentimes we don't see ourselves as beautiful, strong and confident. So we unpack triggers that make us feel ugly, old or not worthy.We get deep here y'all, but as always there are tons of helpful tidbits and a dash of humor to help you get through your day and see yourself in the most positive light!Stay Connected!Amelia Website: https://www.thehelpfulplate.com/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/thehelpfulplate/ Cam Website: https://www.camoyler.com/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/heymomma_cam/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@heymomma_cam Midlife Mommas IG: https://www.instagram.com/midlife.mommas/ Please share, rate, and review the podcast.

I'm the midlife style coach for women ready to design their personal style and create unstoppable confidence. Schedule a free mini session with me to see how I can best help you:  Mini Session Listen to this episode to learn a whole new look on your self-confidence.  I promise you, you haven't heard this point of view any where else and it will change how you view it. Here are 6 ways to boost your confidence about your style. Focus on fit: Invest in clothing that fits well and flatters your unique shape. A well-fitted outfit can work wonders for your self-confidence. Don't be afraid to visit a tailor to achieve the perfect fit, as this can make all the difference in how you feel in your clothes. Embrace color: Don't shy away from bold colors and patterns. They can instantly elevate your mood and make you feel more confident. Experiment with different color combinations and find what works best for your skin tone and personality. Develop a signature style: Identify the styles, cuts, and fabrics that make you feel your best and build your wardrobe around these key pieces. Your signature style should be a reflection of who you are and what makes you feel confident and beautiful. Prioritize quality: Invest in high-quality, timeless pieces that will last for years and make you feel good every time you wear them. Quality materials and craftsmanship not only look better but also send a message of self-worth and confidence. Seek inspiration: Follow fashion blogs, Instagram accounts, and Pinterest boards of midlife women whose style you admire. This can help you discover new ideas and boost your confidence in your own fashion choices. Surround yourself with positive role models and learn from their experiences. Practice self-compassion: Be kind to yourself and remember that nobody is perfect. Treat yourself with the same understanding and empathy you would offer to a close friend or family member. Acknowledge your achievements and celebrate your progress as you work on building your self-esteem. Join the Midlife Style School

Quitting is so easy when things aren't going great, when something is just too hard, or isn't going your way. To be able to say, “That's it. I'm done. No more. Someone else's problem.

As we reach midlife, many of us find ourselves at a crossroads, questioning the direction of our lives and wondering what the next chapter will hold. The midlife journey can be a time of great introspection, self-discovery, and unlearning as we grapple with the changes that come with age and experience. It's also a time when we need to prioritize our physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing more than ever before. In this episode Dr. Lisa Petty and I explore the midlife journey to self-discovery and wellbeing by looking at the challenges and opportunities that arise and providing practical tips for navigating this transformative time with grace and resilience.We will cover:Why are you here?What are you brining into the world?What prevents us from following our intuition to the life we really want?        Why so many of us feel 'meh' during midlife?What does it really mean to find “your purpose”?Overcoming the pressure to be perfect.The primary premise behind Dr. Petty's book Forget About Having It All: The Midlife Woman's Guide to Creating the Life You WantDr. Lisa Petty started her career as a holistic nutritionist and health researcher, and quickly became recognized as a speaker, journalist, award-winning author and media health expert. After several years coaching women who struggled to follow through on their health goals, Lisa earned a PhD for her research on how midlife women experience self-care in the face of the social pressures on them to be perfect in every facet of their lives. Her new book “Forget About Having It All: The Midlife Woman's Guide to Creating the Life you Want” is a combination of research findings and Lisa's own story of midlife self-discovery.

"DOMS" or Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness is the result of physical activity that stresses the muscle tissue beyond what it is accustomed to. Small microscopic tears occur in the muscle.

Have you tested with high A1C levels? Are you in pre-diabetes? Has the doctor told you that you need to make some changes? Are you supposed to cut carbs to get to  A1C normal range, but don't know how many carbs per day you should be getting?If you don't know where to start, what you need to be changing, or even what a normal A1C level is, today's episode is for you. My friend, nurse, and cyclist Tracy Tolson is here to sing to the choir. Tracy is a very fit 62 year old with no family history of high A1C levels, yet a year ago got the news from her PCP - Primary Care Physician that she needed to meet with an endocrinologist and nutritionist to get her A1C levels down before she was in full-blown diabetes. It was a wake up call and she made the necessary changes to get level down herself WITHOUT the use of medication. And she is here on the pod to tell us all how she did it and to encourage you to do the same if you are in the same boat. If you need help making the changes that we talk about today - make sure to come find me - All of the links are below - I hope to work with you soon.Come talk to me here:Find me on my Website:https://www.lesleylmcshane.comFREE: Midlife in Motion ROADMAP I want more details on the MIDLIFE IN MOTION program:I don't need details, I want IN in the MIDLIFE IN MOTION program:Schedule a Kickstarter Call to get your nutrition and fitness on track!Connect with me on Instagram:Get Redesigning Midlife Weekly Updates:Find your community at the private Redesigning Midlife Facebook Group:You Deserve It Notebook: Goal Tracker, Planner, ...

Have you ever struggled mightily with a dream or goal yet been reluctant to ask for help?Do any of the following resonate?I've always done it myself.I'm a capable person, why should I ask for help?Asking for help means I'm weak or not smart enough.There are oodles of reasons you may resist help, you may have your own version. But the truth is that asking for help can be a game changer.It can propel you forward with more clarity, confidence, and commitment.Asking for help is an important muscle to build as we reinvent ourselves because there will invariably be challenges along the way.Those challenges are easier to face when we share them with others, ask for assistance where needed, and keep focused on our dreams.In today's episode, we're talking about the power of "right-sizing" our reinvention by partnering with people that can help us.You'll learn:✳️ How you can "right-size" your reinvention when things get off track (or to help you get started)✳️ 3 reasons why you should ask for help (you don't have to do it alone!)✳️ 3 ways a Reinvention Dream Team can help you move forward ✳️ Why hiring someone to help you can be a powerful move✳️ How Wendy has asked for help (and grown!) during her reinvention journeyYou can smooth your reinvention path and move closer to your dreams when you're willing to ask for help.Instead of feeling weak, support will bolster you to keep going and make that dream of yours  happen.

What's possible when we find the courage to reinvent and be our authentic selves?When we shed who people think we should be and step into who we truly want and are meant to be?The truth is, anything is possible when we learn to stand up for ourselves.We can use self-empowerment to propel us forward as we reinvent ourselves. There are limitless opportunities to show up and shine, comfortable in our skin.That's exactly what happened to my extraordinary guest, Wendy Hutchinson.A lifelong people pleaser and self-proclaimed good girl, Wendy grew tired of putting everyone else before herself.Instead of complaining, she did something about it.She reinvented herself in bold ways and learned a lot about herself along the way. She shared so many powerful insights in our conversation:✅ How learning how to love herself helped her see new possibilities✅ Why perfectionism is a dream killer✅ How she shed old aspects for herself to embrace who she really is - her authentic self✅ Why reinvention is an inside job and not about acquiring "more stuff"✅ How we can build our stress tolerance and learn to set boundaries during our reinvention journey (because some people will be resistant to the new, empowered you)✅ Why we have to look at the stories we've been telling ourselves and determine if they're trueI love Wendy's reinvention story. I love the wisdom she shares. I love how she ditched people pleasing to emerge as a passionate, happy and fierce version of herself.She reminds us that we can all find our Reinvention Rebel groove too.

What happens when we revisit our past experiences as fodder for our current growth and expansion?Have you ever noticed that a fresh perspective can transform an old idea into something new?And those new ideas can help us navigate the reinvention process in interesting, and sometimes unexpected, ways.While we may look to the past and be reminded of things that we didn't like or didn't go well, the opposite can be true too.The past is a remarkable place to help us move forward. Instead of thinking of it with fear or dread, we can approach it with possibility.Sometimes we had a good idea but the timing wasn't right. Being patient and believing in the power of manifestation can propel our reinvention journey forward in the most joyful ways.In this solo episode I share: ✳️ What happened when I revisited my dislike for bananas years later✳️ Why we should stay open to new ideas even if we're resistant✳️ How revisiting voice acting 20 years later sparked my career as a podcast host✳️ Why being open to change is so important in reinventing ourselves✳️ 3 questions to ask yourself that can help spark to new ideasI've got ideas for you to help you keep moving forward as you reinvent yourself.  Take a listen and try them on for size.Mentioned in this episode:Reinventing My 80s: Taking Center Stage - How I Launched a Full-Time Acting Career with Stephanie SchwartzReinventing My 80s: How I Thrive at 89 - Curiosity, Community & Connection with Elaine Battles******Please Share What You LovedYour feedback means everything to me!

"I started to hurt in my 40s to aging," Ronnie says, "Onset osteopenia, degenerative disc disease, pounding my body with aerobics, and jogging in my 20s and 30s all took its toll." So she took her health advocacy and fitness into her hands and also left a traditional job and became a Personal Trainer. She now uses her experience as an aging, active, busy career woman, use of western and eastern medical treatments, and knowledge as a Certified Personal Trainer to help other women like her, stop hurting, feeling overwhelmed, and start thriving, through her coaching, accountability, and tangible support. https://www.heyronnie.com/ www.facebook.com/groups/fabafter50womenswellnesshub/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/ronnieloaiza/ CLICK HERE TO CONNECT WITH YOUR HOST LYNNIS Take some time to review our wonderful sponsors.

What does your 'morning routine' look like?What morning routine, you may ask. Some folks make mornings a mad dash, rolling out of bed, grabbing a cup of java, and running out the door. Others prefer a more leisurely approach, luxuriating in bed, slowing arising, meditating, and enjoying coffee while watching the sunrise.Most of us in midlife like some kind of routine that grounds us for the day; in fact, an Instagram survey showed that 67% of us have a routine. 50% of us include fitness in our morning routine, and 2/3 of us said quiet time is important in the mornings.In this episode, Cam and Amelia explore what a morning routine looks like and how each element of the routine can be beneficial. Each step might not be necessary to every person, but we feel like many of these things will resonate with most of you.Join us on the morning journey. We'd love to hear from you.

What's possible when you lean into your dreams, take action and then let go?Ever notice that things unfold in a simpler (often less stressful!) way? That when we're willing to make forward progress AND trust things are moving in our direction, we can get a lot further than when we try to control every step of the way? (I'm a recovering control freak myself. You too?)Letting go can be tough. It's human nature to want to control things. To try and shift things in the direction of our dreams.  On our timetable.But things hardly ever work out that way. In fact, we often end up expelling more energy than if we learned to let go and trust in the first place.If only it was that simple! But it is possible to make forward progress and learn to let go.In this episode, I share about how you can learn to let go to support your reinvention dreams.  Highlights include:✳️ Why letting go is so important in our personal development journey✳️ How trying to control things leads to frustration and lackluster results✳️ How leaning in and listening to our inner wisdom can help us realize our dreams✳️ How I learned to let go of control (and move toward my dreams with joy (and so much less anxiety) ✳️ My before and after "letting go" stories and the powerful lessons I learned about myself✳️ The 3 key ingredients you need to help you let go and realize your dreams more easily! and so much more wisdom and food for thought.If you're noodling over the possibility of reinventing yourself or you're already moving forward, try these three ingredients on for size.Mentioned in this episode:1.  Introducing Reinvention Rebels - This was my first episode back in Season 1 when I shared a taste of how I ended up hosting the podcast - my inspiration and some fun facts about me that led me here. 2.

When's the last time you've challenged your thinking on your current beliefs that you may be holding about certain terms or actions? I'm inviting you this week to do just that around the word selfish and the topic of self-care.

If you can get in the practice of assessing thoughts, beliefs and habits more often, you just might discover a few key areas to begin shifting in your life, so that your midlife can begin feeling more abundant and expansive too! Today, I'll be exploring how I've acquired my current thinking on what it means to be selfish, why I'm discovering it's important for my midlife journey to shift this perspective and you'll be surprised where my inspiration has derived for me to shift this thinking, I promise! It's most likely not what you think! Now it's your time to push play and enjoy part 2/4 this Wednesday!
