MEfirst Midlife Badassery Podcast
“There has to be something more than this.”
If you’re a midlife woman who has lost weight, regained it, and is tired of starting over — you’re in the right place.
Welcome to the MEfirst Midlife Badassery Podcast, where weight loss, mindset, meditation, and real-life habits come together to help you stop fighting your body and start building a life you actually love.
I’m Addie B — Certified LIfe Coach (and Fast like a Girl Coach), Meditation and Yoga Instructor, former corporate leader, and a woman who’s lost over 100 pounds ... regained weight… and is choosing to build it differently this time.
Because this isn’t about white-knuckling your way thin.
It’s about self-trust.
Habits that fit real life.
Healing the part of you that keeps starting over.
And creating a life that feels so good, you want to take care of yourself inside it.
We talk:
- Midlife weight loss & weight regain
- Real-life habit change
- Meditation & nervous system work
- Spiritual growth without the fluff
- Identity shifts & future-self embodiment
Weight loss is part of the journey.
But becoming is the point.
You’re not broken.
You’re becoming.
Let’s light this B up.
