  • 141: Pelvic Floor Dysfunction in Midlife with Erica Ziel

    We used to laugh at our mothers when they’d sneeze and pee their pants.  I mean, who does that?! Turns out, the jokes on us. So we’re told, if you don’t want to pee your pants, do your kegels. But is that advice helpful, or harmful?  

    As we age into our 40’s, 50’s, and beyond, incontinence is one of those annoying things that we seem to accept as a normal part of aging and then laugh about. But contrary to popular belief, you don’t have to suffer.

    On today’s episode of Your Midlife Comeback Story, we’ll answer the question… how does your pelvic floor affect your bladder health, and how does it impact the other functions of your body?

    Together, we will unpack:

    • How does your pelvic floor not just affect your bladder health, but many other functions of your body, as well?
    • What exactly is your pelvic floor?
    • What are the symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction?
    • Are Kegels helpful or harmful?
    • What are some simple exercises you can do to improve the health of your pelvic floor?

    Erica Ziel has over 20 years’ experience specializing in deep core, fascial and pre/postnatal training. Her mission is to help clients heal their body through movement, breathwork, mindset, and detoxification.

  • 139: Holly Bertone Opens Up About the Fear of Breast Cancer Recurrence

    It’s bad enough to be afraid of getting breast cancer. But if you are diagnosed, what they don’t tell you is the number one side effect is the fear of recurrence. You are always going to be looking behind your shoulder to see if it’s following you. It’s the monster under the bed that no one wants to talk about.

    In honor of breast cancer awareness month, I have a special treat for you today on the show. The other week, I spoke to a group of survivors about the fear of recurrence and the 5 steps they can take to not just empower themselves so they don’t live in fear, but to actually minimize the risk. We were able to tape the speech, and that is what you are going to listen to today. You’re going to laugh, and get a little Hollitude, but all in the name of love. Because as a 14-year survivor, the information you’re going to hear today is not just for survivors, it’s for any woman who wants to reduce her risk of developing this disease. This is the episode you are going to want to share with your mother, daughter, sister, and friend.

  • 138: What is Perimenopause? with Dr. Mariza Snyder

    As we enter midlife, many of us have perimenopause on our minds, but very few know what to actually look for.  Yes, it’s skipping periods, hot flashes, and night sweats, but what about everything else? How are you supposed to know if you’re in perimenopause or if it’s something more serious? And what about mood swings, emotional rollercoasters, and brain fog? Is this just a normal part of getting older?

    On today’s episode of Your Midlife Comeback Story, we’ll answer the question… how do you know when you’re shifting into perimenopause, and what steps do you need to take to ensure a smoother transition?

    To really tackle this topic head-on, Dr. Mariza Snyder will join us and offer up expert advice, as we dive headfirst into the nitty gritty of the beginning stages of “the great change”. 

    Together, we will unpack:

    • How can you identify when you’re shifting into perimenopause and what steps can you take to ensure a smoother transition?
    • What are the different stages of perimenopause and are there any tests to confirm our suspicions?
    • What can we do to avoid or tackle weight gain in midlife?
    • Why is building and maintaining muscle mass during perimenopause so important?
    • What are “exercise snacks” and how can we incorporate them throughout our day?

    Dr. Mariza Snyder is a functional practitioner, perimenopause and menopause expert and the author of eight books: The newest book, The Essential Oils Menopause Solution, focuses on solutions for women in perimenopause and menopause.

    She has been featured on Dr. Oz, Oprah Magazine, Fox News Health, MindBodyGreen and many publications. Dr. Mariza is also the host of the top-rated Energized Podcast, (with over 11 million downloads) designed to empower women to become the CEO of their health.

  • 137: Is it REALLY a Midlife Crisis? with Laurie Reynoldson

    Two words: midlife crisis.  You know you’ve thought about it before.  You see that family member or friend completely change out of nowhere and you wonder what in the world happened to make them completely flip their life upside down.  Maybe they left a career they’ve had for 20 years, they bought a fancy sports car, or even (gasp) got a divorce. 

    But what if I told you that not all midlife changes are a crisis and that extreme, and for many women, it’s more of an awakening?

    In this episode of Your Midlife Comeback Story, we are going to answer the question… what are the top 3 things we need to learn in the school of midlife?

    To help us answer that, we've got the school of midlife expert herself, Laurie Reynoldson. Laurie was a lawyer on the brink of making partner at a large law firm and walked away from everything she had ever worked for.


    Together, we will unpack:

    • What are the top 3 things we need to know to succeed in the school of midlife?
    • How do you define success and how can that definition change over the years?
    • What does the success playbook look like when we finally focus on ourselves?
    • What is the best strategy for creating boundaries and sticking to them?
    • How do you handle the negative comments and push-back during your midlife transformation?


    After an award-winning 20-year career as an attorney, Laurie left the law when she was on the verge of joining the partnership at a large super-regional firm, the job she’d worked her entire career to land. She knows exactly what it feels like to have everything you’ve ever thought you always wanted in life, but still feel like something is missing. Which is why she’s made it her mission to provide women with the tools, information, support and community to thrive in midlife…and skip the midlife crisis.

  • 136: Uncover Your Covert Weight Loss Block Using FBI-Inspired Tactics

    If you’re a woman in midlife and you’re struggling with your weight, you’ve probably tried different diets and nutrition and exercise without a lot of progress. This is very common. And it’s common because the 92% of diets that fail are missing one big piece. They don’t take into consideration the hidden weight loss block that is specific to your personality. I want to break this down for you today, because that covert blind spot is your number one weight loss block.

    In this episode of Your Midlife Comeback Story, we’re going to answer the question… how do you identify your covert weight loss block?

    If you’re interested in learning more about how to do this with the same FBI-inspired tactics that I used when I was in counterintelligence, then this episode is for you. 

    At the end, you’ll also learn what to do next, because once it’s no longer hidden, it’s much easier to create your game plan. 


    Together, we will unpack:

    • How do you identify your covert weight loss block?
    • How does the FBI's Model /  Conscious Competence Model relate to weight loss?
    • How can you achieve sustainable weight loss even though the industry expects you to fail?
    • Why traditional weight loss methods don't work, and what you can do instead to achieve success.

  • 135: 5 Menopause Myths to Master Hormone Mayhem with Maria Claps and Kristin Johnson

    What’s the first thing you think of when you hear the term “menopause”? If it’s hot flashes, night sweats, and crazy emotions all over the place, you’re not alone.

    Those are absolutely legitimate. But what if I told you that everything you thought you knew about menopause was completely wrong? For example… what if… estrogen isn’t the “bad guy” we’ve all been led to believe?

    In this episode of Your Midlife Comeback Story, we’re going to answer this important question… what are the 5 biggest myths about menopause, and what’s the real truth?

    To help us answer that question, we’ve got 2 of the world’s top menopause experts, Kristin Johnson, and Maria Claps, who are authors of the new book, “The Great Menopause Myth.”

    Kristin and Maria share the truth about menopause that most doctors don’t tell you. This is no longer your mother’s menopause, my friend, so grab your bestie and compare notes. This episode is a doozy.


    Together, we will unpack:

    • How is estrogen protective over every aspect of our health and not just menstrual cycles and fertility?
    • Why are we led to believe that estrogen is dangerous, and should we be afraid of it?
    • What is Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) and at what age should we begin thinking about it?
    • Is HRT a one-size fits all or do I have options?
    • What else can I do in conjunction with HRT, in order to live a healthier and more hormone balanced life?


    Kristin Johnson and Maria Claps are the co-founders of the women’s health and hormone education practice, Wise and Well, as well as the Instagram account @wise_and_well_.

    Kristin and Maria have developed a deep specialty in perimenopause and menopause health through their clinical mentorships with multiple medical doctors and naturopaths specializing in hormone replacement therapy.

  • 134: How to Sleep Better in Midlife with Morgan Adams

    Chances are, if you’re in midlife, you either have trouble falling asleep, or you wake up in the middle of the night and can’t fall back asleep, or both. I mean, yeah, we can always blame the dog. But then it’s multiple trips to the bathroom (I mean seriously, bladder!), hot flashes, and anxious thoughts running laps in your head.

    What makes it worse is that it’s relentless. And you’re probably wondering why you used to be able to get a great night’s sleep and wake up feeling refreshed, but now, why does it keep getting worse the older you get?

    In this episode of Your Midlife Comeback Story, we’re going to answer this important question…why is our sleep getting worse in midlife and what can we do to improve it and finally get a good night’s sleep on a consistent basis?

    To help us answer that, we’ve got the holistic sleep coach herself, Morgan Adams.

    In my conversation with Morgan, you can look forward to learning 3 key things:

    • The #1 reason why you’re waking up in the middle of the night and why your sleep quality is declining in midlife.
    • The important lifestyle factors that will improve your sleep - beginning tonight.
    • Do sleep hacks like taking melatonin, using blackout curtains, or wearing blue light blocking glasses actually work?


    Plus, Morgan shares some common misconceptions about insomnia, and whether it’s recommended to sleep with your pet or not. 

    If you’re struggling with sleep, this episode is for you.

  • 133: Tame the Blame with Jen Kosuda and Holly Bertone

    If you have ever been bombarded with conflicting health advice, you know that it can be challenging to figure out what is truly best for your well-being, and even your family’s. The experts seem to push this my way or the highway mentality, which can be confusing.

    In today’s episode of Your Midlife Comeback Story, we dive into the critical role of forgiveness and understanding the true impact of the foods we consume so that you can be more empowered to make better decisions for your health.

    We’re also turning the tables. A few weeks ago, Jen Kosuda interviewed me on her podcast, The Art of a Messy House. I shared some things in that episode that I don’t always talk about here, so Jen gave me permission to share this episode with you. You’ll get some insights into Jen’s story about her son’s health issues and how simple changes created a huge impact on her entire family. 

    The real question is, are you ready to embrace a more empowered, responsible, and fulfilling lifestyle when it comes to your health? If you’re looking for clarity in a confusing world of advice, this episode is for you!

    After you listen to this episode, be sure to head over to The Art of a Messy House, where Jen shares how to walk in faith through the everyday, relatable moments.


    Together, we will unpack:

    • How forgiveness and taking personal responsibility is the cornerstone of health.
    • The misconception of so-called “health” foods and how to truly nourish our bodies.
    • How small, incremental changes can produce lasting improvements for our health.
    • The critical role of quietness and listening for answers when facing health challenges.
    • The 3 “health” foods that, despite popular rhetoric, are actually detrimental to your health.
