You think the problem is food. Or maybe it’s your lack of motivation. If only you had more discipline, or found the right plan, then everything would finally fall into place—right?

But what if the real reason you’re not making progress isn’t about food, or workouts, or willpower?

In this episode of Total Health in Midlife, I’m pulling back the curtain on what’s really getting in the way of your health habits—and it’s probably not what you think. From skipping workouts to stress eating yogurt by the tub (yes, I’ve been there), we’re diving into why so many smart, capable women are solving for the wrong problem… and how that keeps us stuck in patterns that don’t serve us.

If you’ve ever said, “I know what to do, I just don’t do it,” this episode is your invitation to rethink everything you thought was the issue.

Because once you see what’s really underneath the inconsistency, change becomes possible.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN

• Why willpower isn’t your problem (and never was)

• How cultural conditioning sets women up to misdiagnose health struggles

• A simple mindset shift that makes healthy habits more doable and sustainable
