As our bodies begin to show the signs of aging, it’s easy to feel defeated. In this empowering episode, wellness expert Krista Daley shares her insights on how to navigate the midlife transition with strength and strategic adaptation, fostering a resilient mindset that celebrates our capabilities.

Krista's journey as a "wellness warrior" began after her brain tumor diagnosis in 2010, while she was raising young children. This experience taught her that we are often stronger than we believe, a lesson that becomes crucial during perimenopause and menopause when familiar workouts start to feel challenging. 

Highlights:

• A revolutionary take on women’s health: Krista challenges the weight-focused fitness mentality, advocating for muscle-building as the primary goal for midlife women.
• The benefits of building muscle: improved mood, enhanced metabolism, and sustainable strength that supports independence into later years.
• The liberating 80-20 approach to nutrition, allowing flexibility while maintaining focus on health.
• The dangers of high-intensity training during perimenopause and menopause.
• How nature serves as a powerful reset button for mental well-being, encouraging more frequent movement breaks.
• The newfound freedom that comes with the empty nest, embracing travel and cultural experiences at a slower pace.

Key Takeaways:

• Aging doesn’t have to mean defeat; instead, focus on adapting your workouts to suit your body’s needs.
• Shifting the narrative from weight loss to muscle building can significantly enhance your quality of life during midlife.

Join us as we flip the script on midlife wellness, providing inspiration and practical tools to embrace your empty nest years with strength and adaptability.
