In this episode of Light Up Your Worth, host Debbie welcomes Carey Adams, a seasoned physical therapist, and nutrition and strength coach with nearly two decades of experience. 

Carey discusses her specialized 'Fitter, Leaner, Stronger Over 40' program which assists women in overcoming midlife challenges like changing hormones and weight gain. The conversation explores the confusion around fitness and nutrition, particularly for women experiencing perimenopause. 

Carey emphasizes the importance of muscle maintenance, effective nutrition, and personalized exercise routines to accommodate changing bodies and shifting hormones. She outlines strategies to improve metabolic health and manage stress, advocating for a balanced approach to wellness that includes both strength training and cardiovascular exercise. 

The discussion also tackles common limiting beliefs women face regarding exercise and body image and highlights the need for a holistic approach to self-care. Carey shares her insights on meeting oneself where they are, the significance of consistent and sustainable habits, and the psychological aspects of fitness and nutrition.
