Hey, I'm WENDY and welcome to the Blog!

Whether you enjoy listening to my words on the podcast or reading my words on the blog, I hope my words motivate your midlife!

Welcome back to the show and welcome to the last day of July! Can you believe that summer is almost over? This summer has flown by for sure! At least it has for me! It has been a great summer of RVing in the US and I still have more adventures to go. I’m actually about to pack up and head down the 101 along the Oregon coast towards the Redwood Forest in California. I’ve never been to the northern tip of California, so it will be cool to see it.

I’m also excited to do some hiking and get back out into nature. I’ve been cooped up in my RV for the last couple of weeks working on the final tweaks of my book proposal. Actually, I’ve been sitting and working so much at my little dinette that there’s an indent from by butt in the cushion. Seriously!

As a matter of fact, when I reviewed today’s interview, it motivated me to remove my booty from the dinette cushion and get outside and walk. I’m starting a new daily habit of taking more frequent breaks and going for more walks. Even if it’s for just 15 minutes at a time.

So even though I have all these amazing experts with great advice on the show for you guys, I get to benefit as well! It’s like I get a motivational workshop with every guest I interview! Score!

Speaking of awesome guests, I am accepting guest nominations for The Midlife Makeover Show! I’m accepting two types of guests for the podcast:

#1 If you have experienced your own midlife revolution, from breakdown to breakthrough, midlife coma to midlife awakening, tragedy to triumph, I want to hear from you! I want to know how you discovered the next steps in your life, how you found the courage to take those steps, and what you learned along the way.

#2 If you are a guest expert or know of a guest expert – author, podcaster, coach – my audience needs your inspiration, motivation, and tactical methods to help them navigate those challenging obstacles in midlife. And hey –– I need it too!

Megan’s mission is to help every woman – no matter their age – feel strong, pain-free and confident in all aspects of her body.

The Nuggets of Midlife Wisdom from today’s show:

What you do today will determine your health tomorrow. Think about your 80-year-old self and take care of her.
In the first 5-7 years after menopause, women will lose up to 20% of their bone mass which makes you more susceptible to osteoporosis.
It doesn’t have to be difficult to regain your health and well-being. Take baby steps.
The best way to start with improving your nutrition are the instant wins such as drinking more water, eating slowly, eating your pros: protein and produce.
The best way to start improving your fitness is to do something familiar such as going for a walk every day. Gradually you can add in some strength training.
The 4 main reasons for getting a Menobelly, the menopausal belly fat, is lack of sleep, too much stress, lack of exercise, and improper nutrition.
A great way to deregulate, destress, and even strengthen your core is to practice good deep breathing techniques. Breathe in for 5, hold for a count of 5 and exhale for a count of 8.
Taking care of your body makes you more effective at life.
