In this inspiring episode of *Girls Talk Healthy Aging*, co-hosts Shawna Kaminski and Alli Kerr sit down with Lisa Bullock, a 60-year-old competitive powerlifter who has defied the odds and reshaped her life and body after menopause. Lisa holds several Australian titles and records, but her journey to powerlifting began only after turning 50. Faced with physical challenges and a changing body, she discovered the empowering world of powerlifting after realizing she could no longer engage in activities like boxing or CrossFit due to her body's transformation and two total knee replacements. 

Lisa shares her story of struggle, perseverance, and self-discovery, revealing how she navigated the physical changes that come with menopause. For years, Lisa couldn't understand what was happening to her body, but with the help of doctors and a willingness to adapt, she found a new way forward. Despite setbacks, Lisa never gave up. Instead of quitting, she re-routed her fitness journey and embraced powerlifting, a passion that not only transformed her physically but also mentally. 

In this episode, Lisa discusses how she overcame challenges, built resilience, and learned to thrive in her 50s and beyond. She opens up about the importance of trusting yourself and taking the time to understand your body’s needs. What makes Lisa’s story even more powerful is that she never considered herself an athlete until a swim coach's words sparked a new belief in her abilities. This episode is a powerful reminder that it’s never too late to start a new chapter, redefine your strength, and continue excelling as you age. 

Listen to Lisa’s incredible journey and be inspired to push through your own obstacles, embrace change, and find a passion that keeps you thriving. *Girls Talk Healthy Aging* is here to remind you that aging doesn’t have to mean slowing down—it's an opportunity to grow stronger, mentally and physically, no matter the challenges you face.
