If you feel like weight loss has become an uphill battle since hitting your 40s, this episode is for you...

You’re eating less, moving more, cutting carbs, and maybe even surviving on 1200 calories a day—so why isn’t the weight budging? If you’ve ever felt like your body is fighting against you, you’re not crazy… but you have probably been given some seriously bad advice.

In today’s episode, we’re breaking down:
✅ What actually happens to your metabolism after 40 (and why it’s NOT ‘broken’)
✅ Why extreme calorie-cutting & endless cardio backfire (and what to do instead)
✅ The role of hormones like estrogen, cortisol, and insulin in weight gain
✅ How to work with your body (not against it) to finally start seeing results
✅ The simple nutrition & training shifts that actually work for women over 40

And most importantly? How you can stop feeling frustrated and start seeing progress—without starving yourself or spending hours in the gym.
