Listen Later

Think bone health is something to worry about later? Think again.

If you’re in your 40s or 50s and starting to notice signs of hormonal shifts, now is the time to take action to protect your bones, your strength, and your future. In this episode,I'm talking to you about menopause, muscle, and the real story behind preventing osteoporosis—without falling for outdated advice.

You’ll walk away from this episode with a framework for understanding what’s happening with your bones as you age into your 50's and beyond. I'm sharing with you what experts in the field are talking about —simple, proven strategies that work to keep your bones strong as you age. 

🎧 Inside, you’ll learn:
✅ Why Gen X women are rethinking menopause and taking their health into their own hands
✅ How hormonal changes really affect your bones—and what actually helps
✅ Why it’s not just about calcium and vitamin D anymore
✅ The truth about strength training, jumping, and building dense, resilient bones
✅ The critical connection between undereating and weaker bones (and how to fix it)
✅ What a DEXA scan is, and how to get one—even if your doctor says wait
✅ The easiest way to start supporting your bones and weight goals—right now

💡 Don’t wait to be diagnosed with osteoporosis before you think about your bone health.
Be proactive. Be strong. Be informed.

You don’t have to slow down after menopause. You just have to get strategic.
This episode will show you how.
