  Midlife, Magic & Mapping Your Inner GPS: The Secret to Flow, Intuition, and Alignment What if midlife isn't a crisis… but a cosmic upgrade? In this personal and transformative episode, I unpack how I went from “just getting through” to truly tuning in — and how midlife gave me the clarity I never knew I needed. I share the real story of how Human Design and embodied pattern recognition cracked open a new level of confidence, clarity, and direction I didn't even know was available. You'll hear: How midlife can become your most powerful portal — if you learn to pay attention Why certain people, environments, or opportunities deplete you (and what to do about it) What Human Design taught me about my energy, purpose, and power as a Generator The bodily and emotional cues we've been trained to ignore (and how to reclaim them) How “doing the work” isn't a punishment — it's the life hack that speeds everything up Why intuition isn't woo — it's wiring My journey from career pivots to hosting healing events, and how I'm now building a group that merges Human Design with deep emotional recalibration Whether you're feeling stuck, burnt out, or unsure what's next… this is your invitation to stop spiraling and start listening. Because the truth is — your body has been whispering the whole time. And once you start to trust that inner compass? Everything changes.

Something about celebrating this birthday was life changing. I've been connecting the dots in my life more now than ever before. I know who I want to be, and I'm confident in the type of people I want to surround myself with. I've come to understand the kind of relationship I want with my husband, and how I want to spend time with my kids. I've realized it's not the accomplishments I've achieved in my life that matter—it's the person I've become that really makes the difference. Expanding my wealth, my legacy, my business, and pouring into those I love and care about is what really matters, as you'll hear in today's episode. In this episode, you will learn about: What I've learned about myself these past few years (and what hit me the hardest). The shift I made and how it helped me get what I really want. What has changed about my friendships and why. What I thought wealth was versus what I understand abundance to be now. The thing that made this birthday particularly special. How my health awareness has increased and how it benefits my life. How my thought process has shifted, and how it's changed my life. What to remember if making an impact in your life is important to you. Mentions: www.buybackyourtime.com   Got a minute?

You can have the best sex of your life in midlife. Angie Byrd, my guest on this week's podcast, stands behind that statement, and I would like to agree.‌ This podcast is all about helping you do midlife and beyond well. And in order to thrive and be our best selves, we need sex, connection, love and pleasure. Plus, when we are nourished through meaningful relationships, pleasure, passion and purpose, we can have a more relaxed relationship with food and body. Angie Byrd turns life's big questions into quests for wellness, peace, true wisdom, and living with unbridled passion. A natural leader, the insights learned from decades of living, intense experiences and working with world-class teachers led her to coaching women in the areas of health and wellness, relationships and sex, spirituality and leadership. She is the host of the Midlife Magic and Mayhem Podcast, a weekly show for women who are ready to enter unconventional conversations about what it means to be a modern woman in midlife. This show offers the perspective of midlife as a window of opportunity to evolve and blossom into the unique, well, radiant woman that is at the core of her being. A curious curator and mentor, Angie Byrd walks with her listeners and clients, side by side, on the path of feeding the well, wise, wild woman in us all…creating a delicious marriage of magic and mayhem along the way. Some of my takeaways and aha moments from this episode were:

The state of your nervous system is a very big deal. Why? Because your nervous system governs literally every system in the human body and massively influences how you show up in the world. More conversations around nervous system health are being had thanks to people like Irene Lyon, my guest in this week's episode of the Grace & Grit podcast. Irene and I have talked extensively on this show about the workings of the nervous system and even the impact nervous system regulation has on our ability to create long-term behavior change. In this episode, we are taking a slightly different approach to the conversation of nervous system healing by exploring the interplay between nervous system health and exercise. More specifically, in this episode we explore… How nervous system regulation impacts our capacity to exercise, How exercise influences nervous system regulation, What the state of your “tissues” might be telling you about nervous system issues, Practical steps for honoring nervous system health as you engage with exercise, Why we can experience “emotional releases” as we exercise, … and so much more.

This episode is part of the Grace & Grit Summer Remix Series which started with episode 330. This series will reintroduce episodes that have previously been published as reminders that self-development is not a one-and-done job but rather an ongoing practice. Enjoy! Some health coaches heavily focus on nutrition, others on fitness, and others on mindfulness. While the work that I do as a coach addresses all of these things in depth, the thing I am MOST passionate about teaching clients is self-leadership, because, without it, nothing else will stick for very long. In this episode of the Grace & Grit Podcast, I introduce what I believe to be the 6 pillars of powerful self-leadership, how self-leadership impacts your ability to take care of yourself and I do a deep dive into the most essential of these pillars: self-respect. This is perhaps, one of my favorite topics to date on the podcast because it is the bedrock of the work that I do as a coach. Have a listen. Share your thoughts. And if you love it, please consider sharing it with a woman you believe could benefit from listening too! You can listen here: https://graceandgrit.com/podcast-340 **** Ready to Rumble?

This series will reintroduce episodes that have previously been published as reminders that self-development is not a one-and-done job but rather an ongoing practice. Enjoy! Most women I work with have spent a lifetime trying to prove or earn their worth, but worthiness is not something you need to hustle for. Worthiness is baked into your humanity. That being said, worth does need to be acknowledged… BY YOU because if you don't think you are worthy of time and attention, you won't show up to do the things you are being called to do. In this episode, I talk about why it is so important to answer the call to own your worth. I hope you love it and, even more importantly, I hope it helps.

This series will reintroduce episodes that have previously been published as reminders that self-development is not a one-and-done job but rather an ongoing practice. Enjoy! I call the years between 40 and 60 the renovation years. Why? Because of shifting hormones combined with balancing more responsibilities than ever, we are really presented with an opportunity at this age and stage of life to take stock of our total stress load and make some hard choices in how to better manage that. In this episode of the Grace & Grit Podcast, I share the advice that I believe women in our age bracket need to hear (far beyond cookie-cutter diet and exercise recommendations).

A lot of women I consult with, who are frustrated with their state of health, often say to me that they don't feel all that stressed. Which, if you really think about it, isn't all that surprising considering we have normalized living in a constant state of stress. Stress is absolutely a part of life, but we get ourselves into a heap of trouble when we make stress a WAY of life. In this episode, we explore what it takes to have a healthy relationship with stress. You can listen here: https://graceandgrit.com/podcast-337 **** Ready to Rumble?

Health does not grow in negligent, hostile or toxic places, which the mind can certainly become without proper attention and direction. If you aren't exerting consistent daily effort to keep your mindset in a place that promotes grace, resilience, and perseverance any goals you achieve will be very short-lived. Managing the mind is single-handedly the most powerful thing a woman could do to improve her health AND it is the most lacking element in most health and wellness programs. In this episode of the Grace & Grit podcast, I share with you six of the most common thoughts that prevent women from reaching the level of health she truly craves.

You are a dynamic thing, constantly evolving and forever changing. Which means… Your health is dynamic too. Yet we often refer to health as if it is a binary thing.  As if we either have it or we don't. I would argue that all humans are healthy in some ways and rumbling with dis-ease in others. In this episode of the Grace & Grit Podcast, I explore the dynamic nature of health and the real strategies that will honor the multidimensional and dynamic nature of your health throughout your lifetime.

YOU are an incredibly unique human expression. YOU are here to cause, contribute and inspire things in the world in a way that only you can. And… It is really freaking hard to be a fully expressed human doing the work she feels called to do in the world when you are living in a constant state of illness, reactivity, frustration, and self-doubt. Self-care isn't about fitting into your skinny jeans and feeling Instagram-worthy on your beach vacation. Self-care is what allows you to show up as your most vibrant self so you can do the most important work of your life. It's the basecamp for the mountain you are really here to summit. So in this episode of the Grace & Grit Podcast, I explore the basic measure that makes a massive impact on fortifying your chemistry, so you are in the best condition for whatever it is you decide to make this lifetime about.

This series will reintroduce episodes that have previously been published as reminders that self-development is not a one-and-done job but rather an ongoing practice. Enjoy! It is downright impossible to create new possibilities for your life if you are living in reaction mode. After all, your reactions are a byproduct of what you have been practicing. So, if you want to generate new outcomes, you have to practice new things, which means getting very intentional about how you live your days. In this week's episode of the Grace & Grit Podcast, I discuss one of the most important foundational elements of doing just that.

This episode is part of the Grace & Grit Summer Remix Series which started with episode 330. This series will reintroduce episodes that have previously been published as reminders that self-development is not a one-and-done job but rather an ongoing practice. Enjoy! Summer has arrived here in North America and with it comes travel, barbecues, camping trips, and opportunity to disrupt our everyday routines.  And saying YES to these things can be so incredibly beneficial to your health. A lot of women this time of year feel they can say YES to the invitation that is summer OR stay the course with their health goals.   I want to offer that you can do BOTH and, in this episode of the Grace & Grit podcast, I am going to share with you exactly how to make the most of your summer AND roll into September without feeling like you are “starting over”. Have a listen and share it with the women in your life who might benefit from it too:) You can listen here: https://graceandgrit.com/podcast-331 **** Ready to Rumble?

The older I get, the more acutely aware I am of the value of pausing to be able to maintain the pushing and in dedication to that knowing, I am extending myself the grace of pausing the production of new episodes of the Grace & Grit Podcast until the fall. I can't believe it but we have produced 330 episodes of content over the past several years AND to continue to produce the level of content you deserve, I am taking a short break. The beauty of this, aside from rejuvenating my creative juices, is that it gives YOU the opportunity to revisit key concepts from the show. And to encourage you to do just that we are launching a Grace & Grit Summer Remix Series. This series will reintroduce episodes that have previously been published as reminders that self-development is not a one-and-done job but rather an ongoing practice. Today's episode launches us into this series with a very fitting subject: Knowing When to Push & When to Pause.

3 years ago I decided to run an experiment in my business. I started a community called Rumble & Rise where the primary focus would be to help women develop self-leadership skills so could fortify their self-trust, improve their well-being and go after the things on their heart. It was an ambitious endeavor and I had NO idea how it would turn out, but I was so frustrated by what was being sold to women as a path to live happier and healthier lives, that I decided my experiment was worth failing for. But it didn't fail. It blossomed. It morphed into something I never could have predicted and on this episode of the Grace & Grit podcast, I am joined by several women who were daring enough to say YES to my little experiment and what they have gained from doing so. Have a listen. I hope it inspires you to run your own experiments:) You can listen here: https://graceandgrit.com/podcast-329 **** MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE Rumble & Rise Membership Community: https://graceandgrit.com/readytorumble/ **** Are you loving the Grace & Grit Podcast?

It is really hard to rise to the occasion of your life when you are constantly weighed down by things that no longer serve you (and maybe never did). And… Letting go of the familiar and stepping into uncertainty can feel so damn hard. In this episode of the Grace & Grit podcast, I share some of the most common things I see my clients clinging to, to the detriment of their own well-being, including identities, beliefs, jobs, and relationships that they have long outgrown. More importantly, I share powerful ways to reframe letting go, so you can do it with more grace. You can listen here: https://graceandgrit.com/podcast-320 **** It's time to make MIDLIFE Magic.

I like to think that the real work that I do in the world is to help women get out of “integrity pain”. The very real mental, emotional and even physical pain that results from living life out of alignment with what you truly want for your life. And one of the things creating a tremendous amount of integrity pain for my clients is their relationship with technology. We are living in a world that relies on it and we are failing BIG TIME at regulating ourselves around it in a way that honors our body and brain. So, thank goodness for gems like my guest on this week's episode of the Grace & Grit podcast, Dr Kristy Goodwin, who has made it her life's work to help people better understand the neurobiology of our tech use and how to build a relationship with it that helps us nourish our health rather than deplete it. We cover a LOT of ground in this interview, including: Why digital detoxes don't actually work. How to reduce micro-stressors coming from tech use, How to increase biological buffers so your body is more resilient to tech use, Neuroproductivity principles to improve your relationship with tech, … and so much more!

There are thousands of ways to hide from the work you know you need to do to move your life to higher ground. In fact, most of us have developed a habit of hiding from the work in at least one dimension of our life, if not several. The hiding habit can look like a lot of things… Convincing yourself you need more information before you get started, Waiting for the “perfect” time, Telling you don't know what the next step is, Asking anyone and everyone what they think your next step should be … and SO MANY other things. The problem is that when you are hiding from the work you know you need to do to move the needle of progress in your life, you stagnate. And stagnation sucks. In this episode, I reveal some of the most common hiding habits I encounter in my coaching calls and, more importantly, share with you strategies to help you stop hiding and start living.

Anxiety is not the most likeable of human emotions. Most of us would probably rather go our entire life without experiencing it. And yet… it is a part of the human experience and, like every emotion, it contains important intel for you. In this episode of the Grace & Grit Podcast, I explore why the midlife female population is especially susceptible to experiencing anxiety and, more importantly, what we can do to navigate it with more grace and ease.
