Have you ever downplayed something you worked hard for? Minimized a win so you wouldn't seem "too much?" Yeah. Me too.

In this episode of Midlife Moves, we're talking about why we struggle to take credit for our own accomplishments—and why that needs to change. From writing a letter that landed me an invite to the White House, to showing up every morning at 4am for my fitness goals, I'm finally learning to say: I did that. And you should too.

If you've ever shrunk yourself to be more relatable, or brushed off something you should've celebrated—you are not alone.

This is your permission to be proud.

🎧 Listen, share, and tell me: what’s one thing you're finally ready to own?

In this episode of Midlife Moves, I’m joined by strength coach and CrossFit athlete Sean Fantuzzi (@seanfan2z) to talk all things lifting, mindset, and why getting strong isn’t just for 20-somethings.

We dive into:

• Why women are afraid of “getting bulky” — and why it’s a myth

• Injury resiliency vs. prevention

• How to start lifting if you're intimidated

• What “heavy enough” really means

• Why fueling your body (especially with carbs!) matters

• How strength can change how you show up in life — not just in the gym

This one is honest, empowering, and full of laughs. Whether you’re already lifting or just strength-curious, you’ll walk away feeling encouraged to take up more space — physically and mentally.

We get honest about the mental loops that keep us stuck: perfectionism, comparison, fear of starting, and waiting for motivation that sometimes never comes.

Jay shares his grounded, no-fluff approach to discipline, growth, and giving yourself the room to evolve — even when it’s not pretty.

Listen in for a conversation that might just unlock your next step.

Welcome to Midlife Moves — the podcast for women who are tired of playing small and ready to do life a little louder.

In this first episode, I’m laying the foundation for what’s to come: honest conversations, bold reinventions, and the reminder that it’s never too late to start.

We’re not whispering into mics over here — we’re lifting heavy, saying the hard things, and finding our voices (again or for the first time).

If you’re in a season of figuring it out, you’re not alone. This is your space. Let’s make some moves.
