    What Even Married Women Should Know About Dating as a Single Mom Over 40

    In this episode of This Life Gets Good, I share some very real, very honest reflections on dating in my 40s as a divorced mom and why feeling good in your body is not optional, but it’s foundational. I talk about how body confidence has completely changed the way I show up in dating, from feeling abundance instead of scarcity, to walking away from situations, behaviors, and relationships that don’t align with what I truly want. This conversation isn’t really about dating; it's about how confidence in your body shapes what you tolerate, what you settle for, and what you believe you deserve in every area of your life. I also unpack an uncomfortable truth: this confidence didn’t come from a number on the scale, but from the habits, boundaries, and choices that made me feel strong, capable, and grounded in myself. If this episode brings up discomfort, envy, or a quiet desire to feel better in your own body, that’s not a flaw...it’s information. We talk about how feeling good in your body ripples into your relationships, career, finances, and boundaries, and why wanting that doesn’t make you shallow, it makes you honest.

    The #1 Thing That Kills Most of My Clients Progress Before We Work Together (that you'd actually never guess)

    In episode two of This Life Gets Good, I break down the invisible reason weight loss feels so hard for high-achieving women in their 40s, and it has nothing to do with willpower. I explain how carrying the mental load of work, family, and life creates extreme decision fatigue and why, by the end of the day, your brain is biologically wired to choose the easiest option, not the “best” one. I also share how removing decisions, not adding more discipline, was the real reason I lost 75 pounds and kept it off, even through single-mom life, perimenopause, and a demanding career. You’ll learn how decision fatigue impacts food choices, workouts, sleep, and nighttime routines, plus simple, practical ways to start reducing decisions immediately. If you’ve ever felt exhausted, stuck, and frustrated despite doing “all the right things,” this episode will help you finally understand why, and show you a more sustainable way forward.

    A Must To-Do To Start Feeling Hot Over 40

    In this first episode of This Life Gets Good, I share the personal story that completely changed how I coach women in perimenopause and why “just doing more” stopped working for me at 44. After losing 75 pounds, building muscle, and creating a life I loved, my body suddenly felt unfamiliar—exhaustion, joint pain, brain fog, and stubborn weight gain showed up seemingly overnight. I break down the science behind why our mid-40s can feel so hard and why this season isn’t a personal failure or a lack of discipline. I also introduce the foundation of my approach: systems + body awareness. I explain why checking all the boxes isn’t enough, how being disconnected from your body can stall results, and share a simple, realistic way to start reconnecting today, without adding another overwhelming to-do. If you’ve ever wondered, “Is this just how it is after 40?” this episode is here to challenge that belief and remind you that feeling good in your body is still possible and allowed.
