Naturopathic doctor and author of The Cortisol Cure, Dr. Erin Kinney, explains why cortisol isn't the villain we think it is, but a "fix it" hormone you earn through rest and spend through everything else. She unpacks why decades of overspending leave midlife women with a depleted account, why that stubborn belly fat took years to build via insulin resistance, and why the instinct to push harder with more cardio and fewer calories only drains you further.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

- Why cortisol is your "fix it" hormone, not just a stress villain

- Why your midlife belly fat took years to build, and why you need cortisol to lose it

- How the body robs your sex hormones, then floods you with tired-but-wired adrenaline

- Why pushing harder with more cardio and fewer calories backfires

- How to tell your account is overdrawn, from morning fatigue to crashing after workouts

- Why building muscle, not cardio, is the top lever for flipping insulin resistance

- Which everyday activities are secretly a spend versus a deposit

- Which adaptogens and nutrients refill the account, and why carbs matter more than you think

In this episode, Angela explains how mitochondria produce energy, why mitochondrial function can become less efficient with age and hormonal change, and the three advanced supplements she personally uses as part of her longevity strategy: NAD precursors, urolithin A and MitoQ.

You’ll discover how each targets a different aspect of mitochondrial health — energy production, mitochondrial renewal and protection against oxidative stress — and why supplements work best when layered on top of the fundamentals of sleep, nutrition, exercise, cardiovascular fitness, stress management and, where appropriate, optimising hormones.

ZOE nutritionist Dr. Federica Amati explains why basal metabolic rate barely changes in perimenopause, but postprandial metabolism does, glucose, fat, insulin, and inflammation stay elevated longer after meals, partly via gut microbiome shifts. She unpacks why "thin" can mask sarcopenic obesity, why calorie labels carry ~20% error, why a nutrient-dense breakfast curbs cravings, and why a 70,000-woman ZOE study saw a 35% symptom drop from diet changes alone.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

- Why basal metabolic rate isn't the problem in perimenopause, but postprandial metabolism is

- What's actually driving new midsection fat storage as estrogen declines

- Why calorie counting fails as a long-term strategy, from label error to the food matrix effect

- How satiety hormones like GLP-1, PYY, and GIP shift after menopause, and why breakfast is the highest-leverage meal of the day

- Why looking thin doesn't mean you're metabolically healthy, and what sarcopenic obesity reveals about muscle as an organ

- What HRT actually changes about your metabolism, muscle mass, and visceral fat, and what it doesn't

- How a 70,000-woman study found a 35% drop in menopause symptoms from diet changes alone, and why brain fog improved most

If I were starting over at 40, five supplements would form my foundation: magnesium (and which forms support brain, sleep and heart), omega-3 dosed to an 8–12% index, vitamin D3 with K2 to steer calcium into bone, not arteries, creatine at 3–5g (more for bone), and glycine for collagen, glutathione and sleep. I cover the doses, why testing beats guessing, and why supplements only come third - after food, strength and sleep.

What you’ll learn:

Which single supplement I'd keep if I had to give up every other one — and why

How the different forms of magnesium map to brain, sleep and cardiovascular support

Why your omega-3 index matters far more than how many capsules you swallow

What vitamin K2 actually does that makes taking vitamin D3 on its own a mistake

Why creatine isn't just for building muscle, and what it does for your brain and bones

How glycine quietly supports collagen, glutathione and deeper sleep as you age

Why loading up on supplements can age you faster, and the food-first order that doesn't

If you're training hard, eating well, and still watching your waist thicken, I want you to hear this: you are not lazy, and your metabolism is not broken. Something else is going on, and once you see it, belly fat stops feeling like a mystery you can't crack.

So I called in four people I trust most on this, Ben Azadi, Dr Sarah Berry, Cynthia Thurlow, and Mary Claire Haver. Together we get into why cortisol parks fat right around your middle, how losing estrogen quietly reroutes fat from your hips to your belly, and why the exact same meal spikes your blood sugar far more after menopause than it did before. We go deep on the pieces most women never get told about, the muscle you're losing, the gut and estrobolome shifts, and the insulin exposure that makes this fat feel so stubborn.

Then I hand you the fix. My five levers, in the order that actually works, from breaking up long sitting to resistance training, smart HIIT, whole-food carbs, and protecting your sleep and stress. And I tell you honestly where fasted training helps and where it just becomes another way to punish yourself.

If you're a busy woman over 40 who's done with "eat less, move more" and wants to know which lever your body needs first, this one's for you.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

- Does cortisol cause belly fat in women over 40?

- Why does fat move to your belly during menopause?

- Is menopause belly fat caused by a slow metabolism?

- What is visceral fat and why is it dangerous?

- Can you gain visceral fat even if the scale doesn't move?

- Why do post-menopausal women have higher blood sugar spikes?

- How does insulin resistance drive stubborn belly fat?

- Does the gut microbiome affect body composition in midlife?

- How does breaking up sitting improve insulin sensitivity?

- Does resistance training help you lose belly fat after 40?

- Does HIIT reduce abdominal fat in women?

- Does fasted training help burn visceral fat?

1 in 2 women over 50 will break a bone, and the scariest part is you won't feel it happening. Bone loss is silent, it speeds up in perimenopause and menopause, and by the time there's a warning sign, it's often a fracture. But weaker bones are NOT just an inevitable part of aging.

In this video, Angela Foster breaks down the 3 pillars every woman needs to build stronger bones, protect against fractures, and stay strong and independent for decades with the exact, evidence-based way to put each one into practice.

You'll learn:

- Why your bones lose density in perimenopause - and how to reverse the trend

- The single most important type of exercise for bone strength (and how heavy you actually need to lift)

- How to "earn the right to jump" - the safe way to add impact training without injuring your tendons

- Why walking, weighted vests, and mini-trampolines aren't enough on their own

- The 4 nutrients your bones need - and how much protein to eat per day

- The simple tests Angela uses with her clients to check they're on track

TIMESTAMPS

00:00 - Why 1 in 2 women break a bone (and why you won't feel it)

01:37 - What's really happening to your bones in perimenopause

04:02 - Pillar 1: Strength training. How heavy should you actually lift?

08:58 - Pillar 2: Impact training. How to earn the right to jump (safe progression)

13:40 - Pillar 3: Nutrition - protein for bone health

15:00 - Calcium, vitamin D & K2: what you really need

Strong bones aren't built by one workout, one supplement, or one meal. They're built by the choices you make consistently, over years. Pick one pillar and start this week.

Somewhere in your late 30s and 40s, everything you used to do stops working. The energy drains, the middle thickens, the sleep gets lighter, and your sharpness goes fuzzy. Here is what almost no one tells you: this is not you failing at willpower. Most of the longevity advice you have been handed was built on male data and biohacker experiments, and it was never designed for a woman in midlife.

In this longevity masterclass, I bring together four of the most respected voices in health and longevity, Dr Stacy Sims, Dr Gabrielle Lyon, Liz Earle, and Professor Valter Longo, to cut through the noise on what actually moves the needle.I also share my Longevity 7, the seven simple, sustainable changes that took me from being hospitalised with double pneumonia at 38 to a biological age over 20 years younger than my actual age, with an elite VO2 max and the bone density of a 25 year old.

This is a practical, physiology first masterclass for high performing women who are done with generic wellness advice and want to build a body that stays strong, sharp, and energised for decades.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

- Why is most longevity advice wrong for women over 40?

- What are the foundations of longevity that actually matter?

- Is sleep consistency more important than sleep duration?

- How much protein do women over 40 really need?

- Can eating more protein damage your kidneys?

- What are exercise snacks and do they raise VO2 max?

- How do you build muscle and slow aging in midlife?

- Why does plant diversity matter for gut health and inflammation?

- Do omega 3s protect your brain and mood as you age?

- Does morning sunlight help your skin make collagen?

- Is sunscreen blocking your vitamin D?

- What is the fasting mimicking diet and how often should you do it?

Labs read "normal" but you're gaining midsection weight, foggy and running at 70%? Your thyroid - not just perimenopause - may be the missing variable. Dr. Amie Hornaman explains why TSH alone misses the picture, how elevated reverse T3 "pools" and blocks T3 at the cell even when free T3 looks optimal, and why roughly 98% of women don't thrive on T4-only. She links falling progesterone, rising thyroid-binding globulin, low ferritin and the "thyropause" hitting 80-90% of women over 40.

For years, I did everything I was told would help me stay lean. I trained hard, ate well, and stayed consistent but after 50, my body stopped responding the way it used to.

In this episode, I'm sharing the 7 changes that helped me get my flat stomach back at 50 and completely changed how I think about training, nutrition, recovery, and metabolism in midlife. I didn't find a magic supplement or a quick fix. Instead, I made evidence-based changes that helped me build lean muscle, improve my metabolic health, recover better, and finally achieve the body composition I was working so hard for.

If you're a woman over 40 or 50 who's training consistently but not seeing the results you want, I hope these seven changes give you a new perspective and practical strategies you can start applying today.
