Love Your Naked Ass: The Midlife Rebellion Edition
This is the next version of the show. Louder. More honest. Done sugarcoating.
Hosted by Kimberly Riggins, certified health and life coach, holistic nutritionist, and woman who has zero patience for outdated midlife advice. This podcast gives you the raw, unfiltered truth about perimenopause, menopause, and everything the wellness industry got wrong about this season of your life.
No filters. No shame. No pretending you're "fine" when you're running on empty and nobody seems to notice.
Every week we get into the real stuff:
- Why your energy is gone and what actually brings it back
- Navigating perimenopause without losing your mind
- Eating enough, lifting heavy, and feeling stronger than you have in years
- Rebuilding confidence when midlife has knocked you sideways
- What thriving actually looks like in your 40s, 50s, and beyond
If you're done hiding, done apologizing, and ready for a midlife that finally feels like yours... you're in the right place.
Season 2 is here. And we're just getting started.

Breaking the Dieting Cycle: Why Fad Diets Are BS and What to Do Instead
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Ever feel like no matter how “good” you are, your body still won’t cooperate?
Like you’re doing everything right… and still losing the battle?
You’re not broken — and it’s time to stop blaming yourself.
In this episode, we’re calling out diet culture and the damage it does to women in midlife. We’re talking restriction, hormones, metabolism, and why your body rebels harder the more you try to control her.
Because here’s the truth:
You didn’t fail the diet. The diet failed you.
Midlife isn’t the season to shrink or punish yourself — it’s the season to nourish, stabilize, and finally work with your body.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why dieting backfires in midlife
- How restriction slows metabolism and disrupts hormones
- Why willpower isn’t the problem
- The real reason cravings and plateaus happen
- What your midlife body actually needs to feel energized
- Why nourishment beats deprivation every time
Midlife Action Step
For the next 7 days:
- No diets
- No calorie counting
- No “good” or “bad” foods
Instead, focus on balanced meals, hunger cues, and consistent nourishment.
