🎙️ Episode 3: The Midlife Reset: Hormones, GLPs & the Truth (Part 1)

What if midlife isn’t the beginning of the end... but the moment you finally reclaim your power?

If you’ve been feeling like your body is fighting you—brain fog, inflammation, stubborn weight gain, emotional swings, sleepless nights—you’re not broken. You’re living in a system that forgot how to support you.

In this episode, Beth rips the lid off the myths surrounding aging, hormones, and metabolic health. From mitochondria burnout to the fallout from the Women’s Health Initiative study, she delivers no-BS truths on why so many midlife women (and men) feel like hell—and what you can finally do about it.

This is Part 1 of a powerful 2-part series.
