#80- Movement for More in Midlife with Jamie Carbaugh
When you hear the word “exercise”, what’s the very next word that comes to mind? Pain? Sweat? No thanks? It’s incredibly common to make these associations with movement because we’ve been conditioned to believe that unless we are miserable, it doesn’t count.
In this episode, I’m talking with weight-inclusive fitness trainer, Jamie Carbaugh who will share why she is so passionate about choosing movement for more-of everything! Whether it’s more flexibility, better sleep, or dance parties, Jamie helps her clients meet their goals by ditching rigid exercise ideas and fully surrendering to our body’s intuitive desire to play.
Join us to learn how why it’s worth it to get in touch with your playful intuitions, and why movement still counts even if there’s no “product”.

#79 Finding Food Freedom with Diabetes with Danielle Bublitz
When it comes to the diabetes conversation, have you ever felt like common sense was the missing ingredient? If so, you’re 100% correct. The fear-based messaging like “you’re just one donut away from diabetes” indicates how out of control it’s become. What I want you to walk away with is knowing that you can make peace with food, even with diabetes- and one of the best ways to do that is through adopting an intuitive eating approach.
To help us tackle this topic, I’ve invited Danielle Bublitz, a weight-neutral registered dietitian who not only specializes in supporting clients with all different types of diabetes but has also lived with diabetes herself since she was a teenager. Danielle will help us debunk some of the most harmful myths about diabetes and help us understand why having diabetes is not your fault.

#78-Filtering the Fear of Insulin Resistance in Menopause with Val Schonberg, RD
Are you convinced that with your welcome to midlife and menopause letter, you’re also doomed to develop insulin resistance? It’s not much different from believing that every pregnant woman will also develop gestational diabetes. Is it possible? Sure. Does it happen to everyone? Definitely not.
In this episode, I’ve invited Registered Dietitian, Val Schonberg back on the show to help challenge some of the most common assumptions about insulin resistance for women in menopause. Your body composition can change significantly in menopause, but it doesn’t automatically mean you’ve developed insulin resistance. In most cases, it just means you’re human. Join us as we celebrate normalizing bodies of all shapes and sizes and building boring balanced plates!

#77- Season 4: How to Press the Easy Button on Midlife & Menopause Nutrition
If you’ve been around here for a season or two, you know that I’ll never be in favor of taking anything off the menu when it comes to nutrition- with one exception: information overload. These days, the problem with making decisions about food in midlife is not due to lack of information. It’s a lack of awareness of the other things that influence our decisions about food!
So in this season, you can look forward to every episode helping you filter through the noise so you can have access to the best experts, research, and tools. Think of this as your personalized road map for discovering how to make confident decisions about food and your body. Hit the easy button on midlife and menopause and subscribe so you don’t miss an episode! I’m thrilled you’re here!

#76- Food Is Not Medicine & Other Ways to Lower the Bar
Wondering why in the world would a naturopathic doctor and dietitian would suggest that food is not medicine. It’s a great question and one I wanted to tackle for the last episode of season 3. There’s no doubt about it-food does incredible things for our bodies. It fuels, supports, and nourishes us every day. But here’s a little secret: broccoli alone can’t save your life. Food is just food!
The pressure we feel to choose only the most “perfect” foods often ends up taking so much of our time and attention in an already demanding season of life. In this episode, I’ll be sharing 5 ways you can lower the bar to improve your health. I would love to know which one takes the pressure off your relationship with food the most!
I’ve already got so much in store for you for Season 4, so take a minute to catch up on any episodes you’ve missed and I’ll meet you back here in September!

#75 - Navigating the Messy Middle of Midlife with Ann Douglas
Midlife is the ultimate “messy middle”, isn’t it? But when we take time to listen to our bodies, get comfortable with not having control, and surround ourselves with authentic community, there are a lot of gifts to discover in this season too! In this episode, I’ve invited Ann Douglas, the author of Navigating the Messy Middle, a book that brilliantly unpacks the challenges and experiences of women in midlife, especially those of us who are parenting teens at the same time!
Part of what makes this middle so messy is that it’s easy to feel like you’re always dropping a ball, between juggling the demands of caretaking, parenting, maintaining a career, or even dodging fear-based media around health and wellness. In this episode, we talk about these familiar challenges and hopefully provide you with a bit of reassurance that you’re not alone, and it will get better. But here’s what I hope will be your #1 takeaway: life is far from over. Midlife is the chance to become your own expert in self-compassion, expression, growth, and trying on new hobbies, all for the joy of it!

Customer Reviews
Buff Bones
I recently found Jenn and this wonderful group. After the interview on Buff Bones . I am hooked. Thanks Jenn
Important concepts presented in a friendly and approachable way
I’m not a huge podcast listener, but after I found Jenn and listened to a few episodes, I knew I needed to hear more of what she and her guests had to say. I just downloaded them all and am working my way through from the beginning. I think some podcasts are just a way to get people to work with you 1:1, giving you some information but making you feel like you’re missing out if you don’t work with them. This isn’t the case here. Jenn’s show is full and complete and even though I did choose to work with her and join her community, I’m getting a ton of value from the podcast alone. The podcast also makes me cry every time — a lot of it is the stage I’m at in life, but I know that it’s also because these are such important topics and they’re really resonating with me and opening me up to ideas and concepts that I’ve honestly never encountered anywhere else. I’m so grateful to have found this show and will keep listening and following along on her journey, which is a journey all women will take.
Practical advice with empathy
Jenn is easy to listen to and gives well thought out and researched advice. For women in peri-menopause there is confirmation that your symptoms are real and what you can do to minimize them. It’s not about dieting but adding smaller things into your diet and life to help nutrition but not make foods into the bad guy.
