I help women lose weight by solving the root cause of overeating, resetting hunger hormones & more!

If you’re working on losing weight, of course you’re going to care whether the scale is moving. I do too.

But as we get older, I want us paying attention to more than what we weigh.

Are you maintaining or building muscle? What’s happening with your visceral fat? Are you getting stronger? How are your energy and stamina? Are the things you’re doing supporting your bone health too?
You could lose weight and still miss some important opportunities to improve your health.

That’s why I like having different ways to measure progress. They give you more information about what’s actually changing and can help you decide where to put your attention next.

I share what I’m working on personally in EP 175, along with a bigger life review you can do for yourself.

There’s a difference between hoping you’ll have many healthy years ahead and thinking about what you want to do with them.

What experiences do you still want to have? Who do you want to spend more time with? What are you putting off that you keep assuming you’ll have plenty of time for later?

And then there’s your health. If you want to travel, stay independent and have the energy to enjoy those years, what you do now can help support that.

I loved using this framework last year and again this year, as I turned 57, because it took something that can feel very far away and made it much more concrete.

In EP 175, I take this further with questions you can use for your own life review, including what you want more of, what you want less of, and how you want to feel as you get older.

Have you ever slowed down long enough to notice what’s going on in the background of your own mind?

Sometimes a thought has been there… quietly influencing how you feel and what you do, even when it doesn’t make much sense once you actually see it.

I caught one of those in myself this past week.

And when I finally put the thought into words, I realized I was creating sadness over something that hasn’t even happened yet...and it was affecting what I was doing right now. 🤦🏻‍♀️

That realization led me to sit down with pen and paper, do a quick rewire process, and then take action on something I’d been putting off.

I’m sharing the whole candid story in tomorrow’s email, including the before-and-after photos because, well… you’ll understand when you see them. 😁

If you’re not already receiving my Tuesday emails, join today so tomorrow’s will be waiting for you in your inbox.

They’re short weekly emails where I share real-life insights, practical ways to understand what may be getting in your way, and ideas you can actually use as you work towards feeling better in your mind, body and life.

A little inspiration in your inbox can change what you think about, what you notice, and often what you do next.

Every Tuesday, I share something to help you feel more empowered in your mind, body and life. Sometimes it’s a practical health or weight loss tip, something current I think you’ll want to know, or a real-life experience that might help you see something differently in your own life.

This Tuesday’s email is a personal one, and I have a feeling you may recognize a little of yourself in it too. I’m sharing what happened when I slowed down enough to notice what was going on in the background of my own mind, and what changed when I did.

If you’re seeing this before Tuesday, sign up before Tuesday morning so you’ll receive this week’s email. 💌

And if you’re finding this later, sign up anyway and you’ll be all set to receive the next one.

Simply comment… newsletter.

How many times have you thought, “Once I get through this, I’ll get back to taking care of myself”?

Then you get through it…and something else takes its place.

I see this happen with exercise, meal planning, sleep and even appointments we know we need to make. We keep treating our health like it belongs in the extra space left over after everything else is handled.

There will absolutely be times when we need to adjust what we’re doing. But I don’t want a full life to automatically mean putting my health on hold.

In this week’s episode, I’m sharing what I’m looking at as I turn 57 and inviting you to do your own life review too.

🎈A few birthday highlights. One friend spoiled me with dinner out and invited some friends to join us. So much fun! 🥰 Thank you Monique!

Fresh picked organic apples (tart and crisp👌🏻) and dark chocolate? Yes, Mel knows me well:)

Another friend suggested a walk after dinner. 😍 Laurie, I’d love to know how many kilometres we’ve put on during our 26 years of friendship. Our favourite way to catch up with each other.

Thank you Dom and Brenda for your friendship and making my day more special at Dos Toros.

It was great to see Chef Ness, who has been the chef for my women’s retreats, come to the table to wish me a happy birthday. Of course our meals were delicious! I indulged and enjoyed every bite! Zero regrets. 🤤

I enjoyed FaceTime with my daughter, Bri and a special visit from my niece, Jamila and great niece, Petra. It was fun watching her choose her favourite 🤍 rock from my collection:)

The day flew by! Loved the gorgeous ☀️ and spending time on my patio. 🌺 I did spend an hour in the garage doing a task that I’ve been adding to my list, but never getting to it. I cleaned out the space so I could start using my pull-up bar again! I included it in my workout right after.

Thank you to everyone who took a moment to send a text, post, stop by, or message me. Two friends even sang happy birthday in their messages! I appreciate you. 💝

When you think about getting older, what do you want to still be able to say yes to?

It’s easy to think about health in terms of what we want to change right now. The number on the scale. How our clothes fit. Our energy this week.

But there’s also the question of what we’re helping our body stay capable of doing 10, 20 or 30 years from now.

That’s part of the conversation in this week’s episode. I’m giving you some questions to help you look at how you’re spending your time now, what you want more and less of in the years ahead, and what taking care of your health could make possible for you.

You don’t need to wait for a birthday to do your own life review. 😊

Have you put something on lately and
thought, “Hmmm… I’m pretty sure this used to fit
differently”?

Maybe it’s one pair of jeans, a favourite dress, or
you’ve simply noticed you’re choosing your clothes
differently because some things aren’t as comfortable
anymore.

And you’ve probably thought, I need to do something
about this.

You can.

You don’t need to make weight loss your latest full-time
project or change everything you’re doing at once.
Starting with a few changes that make a meaningful
difference can help you get moving in the direction you
want to go.

If you’re wondering where to start, I have 5 Steps So
Your Clothes Feel Looser that you can access for
FREE. Each video is less than 9 minutes and gives you
something practical to work on.

Start with the first one. Then keep going. 😊

Your clothes feeling looser may be the first thing you
notice, but I think you’ll appreciate what you learn
about taking care of yourself along the way too.

Muscle becomes pretty easy to take for granted when you can still do everything you want to do.

We may think about building it because we want more definition or because we’ve heard strength training is important as we get older. But its value becomes much more practical when you think about everyday life years from now.

Stairs. Getting up from the floor. Carrying things. Balance. Continuing to do things for yourself.
That’s giving me even more reason to take my own strength goals seriously now instead of assuming I’ll deal with them later.

EP 175 goes much further into the life review I’m doing as I turn 57 and gives you questions to consider for your own years ahead.

We all have weeks when things don’t go according to plan. I certainly just had one. 😁

The question I’ve been thinking about is what we do next. What really needs to be let go of or rescheduled, and when are we using what happened as a reason to stop altogether?

I shared some of my own “life lifing” from the past couple of weeks in a recent post, including a cancelled hot air balloon flight that changed Brian’s proposal plans. 💍❤️

You can find that post on my page if you missed it. There’s also a podcast episode ( #155) I linked there that will help you take this reflection a little further.

And I’d love to know... when life changes your plans, are you more likely to adjust, reschedule, or let it go?
