    The Gen X Guide to Middle Age

    Is it ever too late to rewrite your habits and reclaim your health? In this episode, Ethan sits down with returning guest Lisa De Pasquale to discuss her latest book, *The Gen X Handbook to Middle Age*. Together, they dive deep into the unique experience of their generation, exploring how "latchkey kids" are now navigating the challenges of aging and health. Ethan and Lisa bond over their shared history, discussing how the explosion of processed food in the 1980s shaped their early habits and left them to figure out wellness later in life. Lisa opens up about her own transformation, detailing her 170-pound weight loss and the reality of maintaining it while dealing with loose skin and the physical limitations that come with getting older. They discuss the importance of making fitness fun, using movie montage playlists to stay motivated, and why perfection is not the goal. The conversation touches on the nostalgia of fast food culture, the judgment surrounding diet choices, and why it is crucial to reject the idea that you have missed the boat on getting healthy.
