My mission is to help women change the way we see aging, and my purpose is to live this out myself setting the example for my friends, clients, and family for generations to come. As a 51-year-old nutrition, strength, and behavior change coach, I have developed many strategies with my clients over the years to help them reach their goals. It always starts with changing the way we think, adopting a spirit ready to learn, followed by a willingness to change. No meal plan or ”diet” can get someone to really change, but I’ve seen people do amazing things when they fully commit to a lifestyle shift over time. I have coached and supported thousands of people over the years who have finally embraced the lifestyle that ultimately got them to their goals. I’ve seen lives and families transformed because one person decided to get ahold of their health. I will share all the success stories, and ways to build muscle and lose body fat (all the good stuff you want to know), but also provide the reality of what it takes to really have what you want. This isn’t about food and exercises only, this is about falling in love with the process and lifestyle. In this podcast, I will talk with experts and peers in the health and fitness industry (and outside of the industry) to provide actionable information you can apply to your life now, strategies for changing the way you think, and an opportunity to follow along and simply be inspired. Thanks for listening and sharing!!!

How To Lose Body Fat Over 40: Part 1/5, "Finding Maintenance"
Episode Summary:In this foundational episode, we break down the first essential step to sustainable fat loss in your 40s and beyond: finding your maintenance calories. Before jumping into a calorie deficit, extreme workouts, or restrictive diets, you need to know how much food your body actually needs to maintain its current weight. Why? Because without that baseline, you're just guessing—and guessing keeps you stuck.
We talk about:
🔍 What “maintenance” really means (it’s not eating less, it’s eating right)
🧠 Why most women underestimate how much they eat and overestimate how much they burn
🛑 The reason cutting calories too soon often leads to burnout, muscle loss, or plateau
🧮 How to find your true maintenance through food tracking, awareness, and patience
💪 The mindset shift: before losing fat, you need to prove you can fuel yourself consistently
This episode emphasizes that your metabolism isn’t broken—you're just not working with your body yet. Finding maintenance is about gathering data, building trust, and creating a launchpad for real fat loss—without wrecking your energy, hormones, or relationship with food.
