PJ Glassey— with a degree in exercise science, creator of the X Gym, and author of Cracking Your Calorie Code — joins Michelle on the Midlife Magic Podcast to talk about the three pillars of thriving in midlife: the brain, movement, and community. PJ explains his 21-minute training method, his 16-type brain test and “brain training” techniques that make habits stick, and why treating your body like a personal experiment is the fastest route to sustainable results. We also dig into practical, compassionate ways women can navigate perimenopause and menopause (nutrition experiments, strength work, and identity-based mindset shifts), plus PJ’s take on visualization, longevity, and how the right story about aging rewires your life.

Listen for:

• PJ’s time-saving strength method that gets results in 21 minutes.
• How identifying your brain type speeds progress and prevents yo-yo changes.
• Honest, actionable tips for women in perimenopause/menopause: exercise, nutrition experiments, and relationship support.
• A mindset practice you can do daily (2–3 minutes) that helps you become the person who sustains healthy habits.

In this episode of the Midlife Magic Podcast, Michelle opens up about her personal journey of losing 20 pounds—without restriction, endless cardio, or dieting rules.

She shares the myths she believed for decades (that weight loss required giving things up, or that you had to sweat buckets for it to “count”) and how shifting her mindset around strength training, protein, and nutrition awareness completely changed her life.

You’ll hear the exact steps she took starting in August 2023 that led her to feel stronger than ever, develop visible muscle definition, and finally build habits that feel sustainable for life.

If you’ve been stuck in the diet cycle and want to know what actually works for midlife women, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.

We set a bold August goal—walk 150 km. None of us hit it… and it was still a win. In this episode I share the five lessons the challenge taught me: why walking is powerful for mood and energy, how strategy and intention unlock capacity, the value of finishing strong even when you won’t “hit the number,” and why aiming high changes who you become.
 If it doesn’t challenge you, it doesn’t change you. Press play for a gentle push as we step into September.

In this episode of Midlife Magic, Michelle draws inspiration from her son’s recent hockey tournament win to explore how the lessons of sports mirror our health and fitness journey.

Yes, winning feels incredible — but real growth often comes from the losses. Just like in sports, we can’t always be “winning” in our health journey. There will be highs, lows, and a lot of in-between moments.

Michelle shares why it’s important not to expect perfection, how to embrace the ebbs and flows, and why staying in the game matters more than the scoreboard.

If you've ever felt like your body is fighting against you in midlife, this episode is for you. In just five powerful minutes, Michelle reframes the idea that your body is the problem — and instead calls out the outdated, disempowering narratives we’ve been taught to believe.

You’ll learn:

• Why your body’s changes are not signs of failure
  
  
  
• Where these harmful stories come from
  
  
  
• How to shift from shame to self-respect
  
  
  
• What it really means to thrive in your midlife body
  
  
  

Your body doesn’t need fixing — your perspective does.
This is your reminder that you're not broken. You're becoming.
