    Episode 041 - A Renewed Life: How a Total Physical Transformation Led to Joy, Marriage & A New Baby at 40 w/ Melinda

    An unhealthy first marriage resulted in an unhealthy, overweight, stay-at-home mom of 3 boys for our guest Melinda for years. As a divorcee, she then became responsible for caring for and financially supporting her sons and she didn’t know what to do. Unhappy with her own physical appearance, Melinda lacked the self-confidence to even go out and apply for a job. Determined to change that though, Melinda transformed not only her body, but her life altogether. At 40 years old she was in better health than she had ever been and was involved with a great man to whom she married shortly thereafter. Melinda’s amazing health journey led to increased fertility and she conceived shortly after getting married to the love of her life. Tune in to this episode to hear Melinda’s truly inspiring transformation and her entire “Pregnancy After 40” Journey and Story. ______________________________________________________________________ Melinda’s Contact Information: FB: https://www.facebook.com/mkmacedo IG: @melindakatemomboss Website: coach.optavia.com/melindakate __________________________________________________________________ Mark your calendars and be sure to save the date for the upcoming "FERTILITY & PREGNANCY EXPO" on April 30, 2022 in Atlanta, GA!

    While both of Mary Beth’s pregnancies were relatively healthy at 38 and 41, she is very candid in this “Pregnancy After 40” episode about the mental and physical toll that pregnancy had on her which prevented her from truly enjoying the time she spent carrying her daughters. During this journey, Mary Beth talks about how her initial reluctance in having to visit both her OB and MFM Specialist on different days during her 3rd trimester ended up being a lifesaver for her daughter and led to her being induced. She also shares how chiropractic treatments helped alleviate some of her pregnancy-related ailments, both of her traumatic deliveries, and destigmatizing Postpartum Depression (PPD).
