Carla Goodfellow - Liv:Well

Carla Goodfellow - Liv:Well Welcome! Are you trying to navigate your way through this crazy mom life too? We don't always agree on the methods but we agree on the the goals!

I'm a 41 yr old hockey mom to 3 great kids and a stong-willed wife to a great hubby! Have you ever felt unloveable and unlikeable? Have past experiences in your life, made you feel like you're less-than? You find yourself in bad relationships, toxic friendships and making unhealthy choices? That's how I felt for years.....(and sometimes still do!) Even when good people come into your life, it's so

easy to push them away and make yourself believe you're not good enough.

8 years ago, I believed the way I felt was because of how I looked and how big my pants were. I was uncomfortable in my own skin, I hated what I saw when I looked in the mirror and I was unhappy. I decided it was time to change! Yes, I lost 40 lbs and being healthy has been a huge part of change for me but this journey has been so much more than a weight-loss story. It's been about discovering that I need to love me! That I am enough! That my kids need a mom who can teach them how to be healthy inside and out! That my husband needs a happy wife to go along with our happy life! If you've ever felt like I did, I hope you'll join me on this RIDE called LIFE while I share with you my struggles, what I've learned and what I have yet to learn! I love connecting with people who feel that pull toward change. I'd love to chat one-on-one with you, so please message me if you're interested in overcoming your struggles with me!

3 things that give me the ICK about women’s health after 40 👇

❌ “Just eat less.”

Most women I know are already eating less than they think and exercising more than ever.
The real question is: are you supporting your metabolism, muscle, hormones, and cellular health?

❌ “Feeling exhausted is normal at your age.”

Common? Yes.
Normal? I’m not convinced.
Brain fog, fatigue, poor recovery, and feeling like a shell of yourself shouldn’t be ignored.

❌ “Everything goes downhill after 40.”

Nope.
I fully expect to be stronger at 50 than I was at 40.
Not because I’m fighting aging.
Because I’m supporting my body differently.

I spent years believing some version of these messages.

The result?

More frustration.
More restriction.
More guilt.

Now at 50, my focus is completely different.

✔ Building muscle
✔ Prioritizing protein
✔ Walking daily
✔ Managing stress
✔ Supporting my body’s natural antioxidant systems
✔ Focusing on cellular health instead of chasing a smaller number on the scale

The goal isn’t to look 25.

The goal is to feel strong, capable, energetic, and healthy for as long as possible.

What advice about aging gives YOU the ick?

Your body makes its own antioxidant.

It’s called glutathione and it’s responsible for protecting your cells, supporting your immune system, neutralizing free radicals, and even how your skin ages.

The problem? It declines with age. And everyday life depletes it faster than most of us realize.

• Poor sleep drains it. (And let’s be honest... how many of us are actually getting deep, restorative sleep every night?)

• Overtraining depletes it. A lot of women in their 40s and 50s are pushing hard - trying to keep our strength and muscle, tough workouts, work, family and not recovering enough.

• Stress burns through it.

• Toxins use it up.

• Even just aging lowers it.

So yes eating well, moving your body, and lowering your toxic load all matter. But for a lot of us, lifestyle alone isn’t enough to keep up with the demand.

That’s why the precursors matter so much. Your cells can’t absorb glutathione directly from a supplement but they can use the building blocks to make it themselves. That’s the difference between throwing money at a product that doesn’t work and actually supporting your cells at the source.

I’m intentional about what I put in my body. And this is one I won’t go without.

Curious what I use and why? Drop GLUTA in the comments and I’ll send you the details.

If your mom brain is burned out, maybe you have a little ADHD that’s more pronounced as you’ve aged and suddenly you feel like your brain has… buffering issues: SAME

Last year I couldn’t remember what I walked into a room for, lost my train of thought mid-sentence, and felt like my focus had left the building entirely. I could listen to my hubby and nod my head but nothing was sticking! He would finish and I’d think “what the heck was he talking about?” 🙈

It wasn’t laziness.
It wasn’t “just aging.”

It was stress, inflammation, and my gut-brain connection begging for support.

Adding supplements that support and heal my gut-brain connection was the first thing that actually helped me feel mentally present again; clearer focus, better mood, more motivation, and way less overwhelm.

(Not superhuman, not perfect… just supported.)

If your brain feels like 37 tabs are open and none of them are responding, you’re not alone and you don’t have to stay that way. 💛

As a 49-year-old woman, life gets a whole lot easier when you realize…

you don’t have to prove your worth to anyone.

Peace matters more than perfection.
Alignment feels better than approval.
And protecting your energy is the ultimate form of self-care.

You start to understand that feeling good is the new looking good.

Your gut, your hormones, your mood… they’re all connected.
Healing from the inside out becomes the goal… not shrinking yourself to fit someone else’s ideal.

You stop glorifying burnout.

You support your gut health, go for that walk, lift the weights, eat the protein - not to punish your body, but to support it.

And you drink coffee to enjoy it, not because you rely on it. You realize sleep is sacred, and your peace? Absolutely priceless.

Because this stage of life isn’t about slowing down,
it’s about finally living in alignment with what actually makes you feel alive.

Ever wonder why you hit that 3 pm wall : yawning, reaching for coffee, or craving sugar?

It’s not just “being tired.”
That mid-afternoon slump is your body’s way of telling you something deeper is off.

👉 Low energy in the afternoon is often linked to:
• Gut-brain imbalance
• Blood sugar crashes
• Chronic inflammation

That’s why the same crash is also connected to brain fog, mood swings, cravings, and even poor sleep.

The good news? You don’t need another energy drink or more caffeine. You need to support your body at the root.

What helps me:
✔️ Morning movement (even just a walk)
✔️ More protein + whole foods
✔️ Hydration
✔️ Daily supplements that support my gut-brain connection are a game changer.

If you’re tired of crashing at 3 pm, it’s time to shift from quick fixes to long-term solutions.

Drop the word ENERGY in the comments or DM me and I’ll share the exact tools that helped me get my spark back.
