Midlife Wellness In The Mountains
A podcast for women 40+ who want to understand their body, improve how they function and age.
Join me, Janel, as I discuss Functional Nutrition and Midlife Wellness topics with some of my favorite health experts, with a mountain twist.
This podcast was inspired by time on the trails with other health expert friends and family, discussing, debating, and ultimately working through loads of health topics that impact our day to day wellness and performance.
Janel is a board certified nutrition consultant, a certified functional nutritionist, a doctor of natural medicine and a lover of the wild.

E35- Why Active Midlife Women Injure Their Knees and What Actually Helps with PT Kerry Nolan
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Why in the world does it seem like all my friends and I, all of whom are active outdoor women, are injuring our knees and how can we PREVENT knee injuries from happening in our 40s and 50s or REPAIR injured ones so we don't hurt it again??
In this episode, Janel sits down with physical therapist Kerry to unpack why midlife women are more injury-prone even when nothing has changed, and what’s really happening beneath the surface as hormones shift, muscle changes, fatigue accumulates, and training becomes less intentional.
This is a practical, empowering conversation about getting smarter—not backing off—so you can stay strong, resilient, and active for decades to come.
I wish I had heard this last year before I tore my meniscus but I am thrilled to now know what to do to reduce my risk of injuring my knee again.
Kerry Nolan works at Ascent Tahoe in Truckee CA
