The Midlife Vitality Project: Where Perimenopause Becomes Your Comeback Story Naturally!
If you’re a woman over 40 who is tired of feeling tired, foggy, or stuck in a body that doesn’t feel like yours anymore and are looking for a natural approach that will work for YOU to help you start feeling like yourself again, this podcast is for you.
In The Midlife Vitality Project podcast, Registered Holistic Nutritionist, cancer survivor and fellow perimenopause warrier, Joanne Willis, guides you through a real midlife health and life transformation — not one that relies on pills, weight loss injections, HRT or quick fixes, but through understanding your body’s signals and rebuilding your health from the root - naturally - with the power of nutrition!
In each episode, Joanne will dig deep into the real reason behind midlife weight gain, mood swings, fatigue, and other wacky and worrying symptoms of perimenopause — and teaches you how to rebalance your metabolism, hormones and blood levels to achieve your best health and lasting vitality through menopause and beyond.
Because midlife is not the end my friend — it’s just the beginning of your next chapter - the chapter that's all about you and living your best life!

Episode 4: (Part 1) My 3 Health Crises That Changed Everything
Send us your questions & comments
This episode marks the beginning of a special 3-part mini-series inside The Midlife Vitality Project Podcast called “Becoming Me Again.”
In this series, I’m pulling back the curtain and sharing the most personal parts of my health story — not just the highlight reel, or the success stories, but the raw, honest moments that shaped the journey of how I coach and live today.
Because if you’ve been feeling lost in your own body lately — tired, disconnected, or unsure where to even begin — and find yourself struggling with health anxiety as your body changes through midlife, this series will help you se that you’re not “starting over”… you’re evolving.
Across these three episodes, my hope is that you’ll gain a deeper understanding of your own midlife transformation as your experience mine. That it will help you to connect the dots to what’s really going on beneath the symptoms and how you can start healing from the inside out.
In this first episode of the Becoming Me Again mini-series, I share the three defining chapters that brought me to where I am today — my battle with lymphoma in my 20s, postnatal depression in my 30s, and the rollercoaster of perimenopause in my 40s.
Each stage forced me to stop, listen, learn and rebuild — physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
This isn’t just a story of illness or recovery. It’s a story of awakening — of realizing that health isn’t about bouncing back to who you were, but growing into who you’re meant to become.
If you’ve ever thought “When did I start feeling like this?” or “Why can’t I get back to the old me?” — this episode will help you connect the dots and start seeing your own body’s signals in a whole new light.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How stress, trauma, and hormone shifts can quietly shape your health long before symptoms appear
- The moment that changed how I viewed “healing” forever
- Why self-awareness — not perfection — is the real starting point for regaining midlife balance
It’s the beginning of a powerful conversation — one that I hope will leave you feeling seen, hopeful, and ready to start reconnecting with you again.
