“There has to be something more than this.” If you’re a midlife woman who has lost weight, regained it, and is tired of starting over — you’re in the right place. Welcome to the MEfirst Midlife Badassery Podcast, where weight loss, mindset, meditation, and real-life habits come together to help you stop fighting your body and start building a life you actually love. I’m Addie B — Certified LIfe Coach (and Fast like a Girl Coach), Meditation and Yoga Instructor, former corporate leader, and a woman who’s lost over 100 pounds ... regained weight… and is choosing to build it differently this time.  Because this isn’t about white-knuckling your way thin.

We talk: Midlife weight loss & weight regainReal-life habit changeMeditation & nervous system workSpiritual growth without the fluffIdentity shifts & future-self embodiment Weight loss is part of the journey. But becoming is the point. You’re not broken. You’re becoming. Let’s light this B up.

    S4 Ep 227: Midlife Reinvention: Why Weight Loss Isn’t the Real Goal

    If you’re here for weight loss… this might piss you off (in the best way 😏). Because the truth?  It’s never been about the weight. In this episode, I’m sharing a real-life update from my week—what’s working, what’s messy, and what I’m learning as I build my next level in real time. We’re talking:  Why chasing outcomes (weight, money, relationships) keeps you stuck but make great goals  The identity shift that actually creates lasting change  How habits really get built (and why most people do it backwards)  The connection between not living your truth… and what shows up in your body  Why community is the missing piece for transformation  And what I’m building next (and why it matters) This is not a polished “I have it all figured out” episode.  This is me in the arena… figuring it out as I go. If you’ve ever felt like:  👉 You know what to do but aren’t doing it  👉 You’ve lost weight before but can’t keep it off  👉 You’re meant for more but keep playing small This episode is for you. Because this work?  It’s not about becoming perfect. It’s about becoming the woman who follows through. ⏱️ CHAPTERS (clean + SEO friendly) 00:00 The Truth About Weight Loss (It’s Not What You Think)  00:53 Identity vs. Outcomes: Why You’re Stuck  08:07 Building Habits That Actually Stick  15:30 Creating Community & My New Membership  18:23 Moving Through Fear & Stepping Into Growth 📣 If this hit for you, come join us inside Midlife Badassery.  This is where we stop talking about her… and start becoming her.

    S4 Ep 226: If Your Circles Stopped Dreaming… But You Didn’t (Meet Brookster)

    This week, I’m introducing a new version of me… BROOKSTER 👀🔥 But first—can we talk about this? 👉 What happens when your circles stopped dreaming… but you didn’t? Because that hit me hard this week. In this episode, I’m sharing:  Why outgrowing your environment can feel lonely (and why it’s actually a good sign)  How I’ve used alter egos (like Slayer → now Brookster) to step into bigger versions of myself  The real reason we stay stuck in old patterns (hint: it’s not lack of motivation)  Why habits only work when they’re tied to identity  And how to start activating your next-level self right now This isn’t about becoming someone else.  It’s about becoming the version of you that’s been waiting. And yeah… it might scare the hell out of you. Good. That means you’re onto something. 🔥 If you’re ready to dream bigger (and actually move on it), come join us inside the Midlife Badassery community.

    S4 Ep 225: Scared AF… But I’m Doing It Anyway (Midlife Reinvention Over 50)

    This one is real-time. I’m in my car, because in the middle of building my next level some upperlimiting shit hit and we have to go to an eye appointment  😏  This week TERROR hit me. I'm not even going to say scared.  It like gripped me in my gut.  Like “maybe I should just go back to what’s safe” kind of scared. In this episode, I’m talking through what it actually looks like to be in the messy middle of midlife reinvention. Not the “I figured it out” version. The real version where fear shows up hard and you have to decide who you’re going to be anyway. We get into:  The moment I almost chose the safe path  What fear actually feels like in your body  Building my alter ego (Brookster) while I’m still in it  Why weight loss, identity, and business building are all connected  Using data (scale + stats) without making it mean something about you If you’re over 50 and feeling that pull toward something bigger—but fear is loud—this is your reminder: You don’t have to feel ready.  You just have to stop playing small. We can dream BIG AF and set into her. One little scary spell at a time ;) LFGOOoooo! Who are you creating?  Come create with me...

Like… right down the street from my house. After deciding to go ALL IN on myself and my business, this threw me into a full-on “wait… what am I doing?” moment.

    You know that feeling when everything is finally clicking — the weight's dropping, the money's coming in, life feels good — and then out of nowhere you blow it up? Yeah. That's not bad luck. That's not you being broken. That's your Upper Limit Problem — and this episode is going to change how you see yourself. 🙌 In this episode, Addie breaks down: What the Upper Limit Problem actually is (Gay Hendricks, The Big Leap)How we all have an internal thermostat for how much good we're allowed to feel — and how our nervous system drags us back to "safe"A real-life parking garage moment — a $1,200 copay, tears, and choosing a completely different responseWhy a hype playlist might literally rewire your brain (comment "PLAYLIST" and Addie will send hers!)The wealth container concept — why you keep returning to your "normal" bank balance until you shift the belief underneath itHow one rough night of gluten and cheese became a lesson in rest, inflammation, and ditching the white-knuckle approachWhy body, money, and mindset upper limits are all the same pattern — and the same solutionResources mentioned: The Big Leap by Gay HendricksDr. Jason Fung (intermittent fasting & metabolic health) - Body Set PointJamie Sea (wealth & upper limits) Alter Ego Challenge FREE-->  SKOOL community Midlife Badassery is open HERE FOLLOW/WATCH ON YOUTUBE addiebeall55 Free Visioning Meditation (goes with Ep 160 Unlock Your Future: Create Vision for Midlife Transformation)   Get Social with Me!

    S4 Ep 221: Remember Joy? Midlife Reinvention Starts Here

    Somewhere between responsibilities, careers, raising kids, and trying to hold life together… many of us stopped asking a very important question: What actually brings me joy? In this week’s Pool Podcast episode of MEfirst Midlife Badassery, I’m recording from my favorite place — the pool — talking about why joy might actually be one of the most powerful tools for transformation. From joining a watercolor group to experimenting with alter egos, exploring creativity, and remembering the things we loved as kids… this episode is about giving yourself permission to try things again. Midlife reinvention doesn’t have to be serious all the time. Sometimes it starts with joy. And sometimes the first step is simply asking yourself what lights you up. In This Episode • Why joy is a powerful part of personal transformation • How creativity helps unlock new identities • The concept of alter egos and stepping into future versions of yourself • Rediscovering childhood joy (inspired by The Artist’s Way) • Why midlife is the perfect time to experiment and try new things • How small adventures can reconnect you to your purpose Your Challenge This Week Ask yourself: What did I love doing when I was younger that I haven’t done in a long time? Try one small thing this week that sparks curiosity, creativity, or joy. You might be surprised what happens next. Episode Timestamps 00:00 Recording the podcast from the pool 02:00 Why joy matters on the transformation journey 05:00 Alter egos and identity creation 09:00 Everyday adventures and creativity 14:00 Finding what lights you up in midlife 19:30 Loch Ness Addie and the joy of the water 24:00 Expanding joy and trying new things 28:00 Your challenge: rediscover joy Watch the Pool Podcast on YouTube You can watch this episode (and follow my everyday adventure experiments) over on YouTube.
