  • S4 Ep 231: I Created an Alter Ego and Lost 100 Pounds - What No One Tells You

    If you're a woman over 50 on a weight loss journey who has tried every program, every diet, every coach — and you're still not there — this episode is for you. This is the midlife transformation story nobody talks about. Not another weight loss tip. Not another mindset hack. This is how I created an alter ego, stepped into her, and lost over 100 pounds — and how that identity shift became the biggest personal growth catalyst of my life. If you're in midlife and feeling like you've hit a wall, if the weight loss feels impossible and you're quietly giving up — I see you. I was you. And this is your midlife reset. 🔥

    I was leading a workshop this week and I looked out at the room and saw myself staring right back at me.

    She had tried all the things. Every diet. Every program. Every coach. Every Monday morning promise. And she was done. She had quietly given up on believing her body could ever change.

    I had something to tell her that nobody had ever told me.

    This episode is for every woman in despair who has done everything and still hasn't gotten there. The woman who is quietly giving up. The woman who doesn't believe anymore.

    I was her. And then I did something nobody taught me to do.

    I built an alter ego. I stepped into her. And I lost over 100 pounds.

    This is what nobody tells you about that.

    In this episode I share:

    • The rock bottom moment that changed everything — Game of Thrones, yoga pants, and three days in bed
    • Why I looked into weight loss surgery and what stopped me
    • The Everyday Adventure List that cracked my mind open for the first time
    • How I discovered the think, feel, act cycle and why it should be taught in fourth grade
    • How Slayer was born — and what she unlocked that had nothing to do with weight loss
    • Why regaining weight this time felt completely different from every time before
    • The role of community in keeping you going through the messy middle
    • Why awareness is the real superpower — and how your alter ego accidentally builds it

    I didn't set out to teach thought awareness or alter ego work. I set out to lose weight because I was a ball of misery. And when I built Slayer, I accidentally became an observer of my own life.

    Awareness was the superpower I didn't know I was building.

    The only thing stopping you from feeling good right now is your mind. And okay, maybe a little bit of hormones depending on where you are with perimenopause. 😄

  • S4 Ep 230: They Said I Was Too Much. They Were Right

    Have you ever been pulled into an office, a meeting, or a conversation and told you were too much?

    Too loud. Too emotional. Too ambitious. Too intense. Too spiritual. Too big.

    This week Addie gets real about a moment that kept her up at night — being told by a coach that her energy can scare people. And instead of shrinking, she did what she always does: she got honest, got into it, and came out the other side more herself than ever.

    In this episode Addie talks about:

    • Why being called "a lot" has followed her from corporate America to the coaching world — and why she's finally done letting it stick
    • What Human Design revealed about her energy and why she's wired this way
    • How years of shrinking herself to fit in contributed to 80 lbs back on her body
    • Why your alter ego GPT might be your best hype person when you need a reality check
    • The truth about who your people really are — and why the wrong room is actually a gift
    • What's happening inside the MEfirst community, the Alter Ego Challenge, and her first YouTube video
    • Her morning routine that's changing everything — yoga, meditation, treadmill, MEfirst Guide
    • Brookster, her CEO alter ego, and why putting on real pants is her talisman
    • Her HRT journey, inflammation, and why sleep changed when she went back to her estrogen cream
    • The visioning book club happening inside MEfirst Becoming

    If you've ever been told you were too much of something — this one's for you.

    Go light this bitch up. Go be too much of something. It's your mission.

  • S4 Ep 229: 🔮 What Oracle Cards Have To Do With Weight Loss | Midlife Woo, Intuition & Self-Trust

    What do oracle cards have to do with weight loss? More than you might think.

    In this episode of MEfirst Midlife Badassery, Addie dives into the surprising connection between intuition, nervous system healing, spirituality, and midlife weight loss.

    Because let’s be honest…most women in midlife already KNOW what to eat. The real struggle is stress, burnout, emotional eating, people pleasing, self-abandonment, and completely losing connection with ourselves.

    This conversation explores:

    •  why weight loss is often a doorway to self-discovery 
    •  how oracle cards became a tool for self-trust and reflection 
    •  the role meditation played in Addie’s 120lb transformation 
    •  why “woo” practices like breathwork, tapping, visualization, yoga, and grounding actually have science behind them 
    •  the difference between masculine hustle energy and feminine intuition 
    •  how future self work changes behavior and identity 
    •  why midlife women are being called into a new era of purpose and power 

    If you’ve ever felt like:
     ✨ “It’s not really about the food anymore…”
     ✨ “I know what to do but I can’t seem to stay connected to myself…”
     ✨ “There has to be something deeper here…”

    …this episode is for you.

    In This Episode

    00:00 🔮 Oracle Cards, Intuition & Midlife Weight Loss
     04:39 Healing, Self-Discovery & Coming Home to Yourself
     06:25 How Oracle Cards Help You Hear Your Inner Wisdom
     12:43 Your Body Isn’t Broken: Rest, Burnout & Listening In

  • S4 Ep 228: I Set Bigger Goals… and It Scared Me (249 + $10K Months)

    I just set new goals… and I’m not gonna lie—this next level feels BIG. And..

    That's how I know it's GOOD stuff! Like, next level scary shit!

    In this episode, I’m taking you inside my real-time goal setting after our MEfirst event—what I’m going after, what’s been holding me back, and how I’m stepping into the next version of me.

    We’re talking:
     🔥 Losing the next 24 pounds (and what’s actually moving the needle now)
     🔥 Building back to $10K months in my business
     🔥 The mindset shifts around clarity, fear, and identity
     🔥 Why habits > food when it comes to weight loss
     🔥 How alter egos (hi, Brookster 👑) help you SHOW UP
     🔥 Balancing creativity with actual execution
     🔥 Visualization + becoming your future self
     🔥 Creating a life rooted in freedom, joy, and self-trust

    This is not a “when I get there” story.
     This is me IN IT—with you.

    If you’ve been feeling the pull to want more… but also low-key scared to say it out loud?
     Yeah. This one’s for you.

    Let’s go become her. 💥

  • S4 Ep 227: Midlife Reinvention: Why Weight Loss Isn’t the Real Goal

    If you’re here for weight loss… this might piss you off (in the best way 😏).

    Because the truth?
     It’s never been about the weight.

    In this episode, I’m sharing a real-life update from my week—what’s working, what’s messy, and what I’m learning as I build my next level in real time.

    We’re talking:

    •  Why chasing outcomes (weight, money, relationships) keeps you stuck but make great goals 
    •  The identity shift that actually creates lasting change 
    •  How habits really get built (and why most people do it backwards) 
    •  The connection between not living your truth… and what shows up in your body 
    •  Why community is the missing piece for transformation 
    •  And what I’m building next (and why it matters) 

    This is not a polished “I have it all figured out” episode.
     This is me in the arena… figuring it out as I go.

    If you’ve ever felt like:
     👉 You know what to do but aren’t doing it
     👉 You’ve lost weight before but can’t keep it off
     👉 You’re meant for more but keep playing small

    This episode is for you.

    Because this work?
     It’s not about becoming perfect.

    It’s about becoming the woman who follows through.

    ⏱️ CHAPTERS (clean + SEO friendly)

    00:00 The Truth About Weight Loss (It’s Not What You Think)
     00:53 Identity vs. Outcomes: Why You’re Stuck
     08:07 Building Habits That Actually Stick
     15:30 Creating Community & My New Membership
     18:23 Moving Through Fear & Stepping Into Growth

    📣 If this hit for you, come join us inside Midlife Badassery.
     This is where we stop talking about her… and start becoming her.

  • S4 Ep 226: If Your Circles Stopped Dreaming… But You Didn’t (Meet Brookster)

    This week, I’m introducing a new version of me… BROOKSTER 👀🔥

    But first—can we talk about this?

    👉 What happens when your circles stopped dreaming… but you didn’t?

    Because that hit me hard this week.

    In this episode, I’m sharing:

    •  Why outgrowing your environment can feel lonely (and why it’s actually a good sign) 
    •  How I’ve used alter egos (like Slayer → now Brookster) to step into bigger versions of myself 
    •  The real reason we stay stuck in old patterns (hint: it’s not lack of motivation) 
    •  Why habits only work when they’re tied to identity 
    •  And how to start activating your next-level self right now 

    This isn’t about becoming someone else.
     It’s about becoming the version of you that’s been waiting.

    And yeah… it might scare the hell out of you.

    Good. That means you’re onto something.

    🔥 If you’re ready to dream bigger (and actually move on it), come join us inside the Midlife Badassery community.

    Let’s light this bitch up.

  • S4 Ep 225: Scared AF… But I’m Doing It Anyway (Midlife Reinvention Over 50)

    This one is real-time.

    I’m in my car, because in the middle of building my next level some upperlimiting shit hit and we have to go to an eye appointment  😏 

    This week TERROR hit me. I'm not even going to say scared. 

    It like gripped me in my gut. 

    Like “maybe I should just go back to what’s safe” kind of scared.

    In this episode, I’m talking through what it actually looks like to be in the messy middle of midlife reinvention. Not the “I figured it out” version. The real version where fear shows up hard and you have to decide who you’re going to be anyway.

    We get into:

    •  The moment I almost chose the safe path 
    •  What fear actually feels like in your body 
    •  Building my alter ego (Brookster) while I’m still in it 
    •  Why weight loss, identity, and business building are all connected 
    •  Using data (scale + stats) without making it mean something about you 

    If you’re over 50 and feeling that pull toward something bigger—but fear is loud—this is your reminder:

    You don’t have to feel ready.
     You just have to stop playing small.

    We can dream BIG AF and set into her. One little scary spell at a time ;)

    LFGOOoooo!

  • S4 Ep 224: I’m Reinventing Myself at 53… And It’s Messy AF 🔥 | Alter Ego & Identity Work

    You ever feel like you’re becoming someone new…
     and also like everything is kind of a hot mess at the same time? 😂🔥

    Yeah. Same. You GET ME! lol

    This episode is a real-time download of where I’m at right now in the height of building a challenge and community, reinventing myself at 53, losing weight (again), building my business, and stepping into a whole new identity using alter ego work.

    As always on Midlife Badassery...this isn’t the polished “I figured it out” version. I mean, does she really exist?! lol...there is just another goal after that!

    This is the eternal messy middle of growth.

    Welcome to Transfomation Bs!

    I’m navigating big questions like:
     👉 Am I playing small… or actually building something bigger?
     👉 Is this aligned… or just easier?
     👉 Who the hell am I becoming right now?

    We talk about:
     ✨ Alter egos (Slayer, Brookster & beyond)
     ✨ Identity shifts vs starting over
     ✨ Manifestation, decision-making, and trusting yourself again
     ✨ What midlife reinvention actually looks like in real life

    And I share something happening behind the scenes right now that has me questioning everything (in the best way 👀)

    If you’re a midlife woman who’s done starting over and ready to actually become her…

    you’re in the right place. 🔥

    And, get your hot badass self inside the group and build your Alter Ego! woo hoo!

  • S4 Ep 223: Down 18 Pounds + A Surprise Job Offer… Now What?!

    This week’s episode is real life, unfiltered, and recorded in my car. Because sometimes… that’s exactly where the truth comes out 😅

    I’m wrapping up my first 90-day goal of the year, down about 18 pounds, feeling proud… and then out of nowhere:

    👉 A job opportunity shows up.

    Like… right down the street from my house.

    After deciding to go ALL IN on myself and my business, this threw me into a full-on “wait… what am I doing?” moment.

    So in this episode, I take you with me in real time as I:

    •  Reflect on my 90-day results (and what actually matters more than the number) 
    •  Talk through how our brains try to keep us “safe” when we’re leveling up 
    •  Navigate an unexpected opportunity that doesn’t match the plan 
    •  Explore identity-based transformation vs playing small 

    This isn’t polished.

    This is what it actually looks like to:
     👉 build a business
     👉 lose weight
     👉 and become a whole new version of yourself

    …all at the same time.

    If you’ve ever:

    •  Questioned your next move 
    •  Felt pulled between security and alignment 
    •  Or wondered if you’re “doing it right” 

    You’re not alone. And you’re definitely not behind.

    💥 This is Midlife Badassery. And we’re just getting started.

  • S4 Ep 222: Why You Ruin Everything Right Before Your Breakthrough (The Upper Limit Problem

    You know that feeling when everything is finally clicking — the weight's dropping, the money's coming in, life feels good — and then out of nowhere you blow it up?

    Yeah. That's not bad luck. That's not you being broken. That's your Upper Limit Problem — and this episode is going to change how you see yourself. 🙌

    In this episode, Addie breaks down:

    • What the Upper Limit Problem actually is (Gay Hendricks, The Big Leap)
    • How we all have an internal thermostat for how much good we're allowed to feel — and how our nervous system drags us back to "safe"
    • A real-life parking garage moment — a $1,200 copay, tears, and choosing a completely different response
    • Why a hype playlist might literally rewire your brain (comment "PLAYLIST" and Addie will send hers!)
    • The wealth container concept — why you keep returning to your "normal" bank balance until you shift the belief underneath it
    • How one rough night of gluten and cheese became a lesson in rest, inflammation, and ditching the white-knuckle approach
    • Why body, money, and mindset upper limits are all the same pattern — and the same solution

    Resources mentioned:

    • The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks
    • Dr. Jason Fung (intermittent fasting & metabolic health) - Body Set Point
    • Jamie Sea (wealth & upper limits)
