#redesigningmidlife

I started working with Katie Key at the end of November and she is a rockstar. I could tell that Katie was serious about wanting to make a change and begin to gain control of her life through a needed health journey. And boy, did she!
 
 Katie not only lost weight, but a lot of inches even during the holiday season. We worked through eating healthy, protein, and communication with family and getting their support. And we discussed the importance of not only cardio exercise, but strength training to redistribute your body weight.
 
 Her confidence has soared because she knows she did it herself without relying on crazy diets or pills. It was all her and her good choices.  She encourages everyone to invest in yourself because you deserve it and SO DO I!
 
 Let's work together in the Midlife in Motion program! I would be honored!

My first key to success has always been "Consistency is Key". But if I were to have another it would be that in order to know where you are going, you have to know where you are starting. And in order to do that we need to be AWARE. To have AWARENESS of everything around us.

Once we are able to become aware of where our time is spent, what we are eating, what we aren't doing in order to be healthier, then it is much easier to develop a good plan with actionable and achievable goals.

And that is what Jennifer has able to do since our Midlife in Motion Kickstarter Call back in October. And she has gained so much clarity on her direction and what she wants as she continues to reach for even bigger goals.

Thanks for listening today - I hope that you will join us when the Midlife in Motion program launches on January 26th!

HAPPY 50TH BIRTHDAY if you are turning this magical age in 2023! I don't care if you dread it, haven't planned for it, or are excited for this next chapter - it is coming no matter what you say or feel. So you need to be ready.

My friend Rachel Fagerberg, who herself is turning fifty, is with me today to contemplate that number, that age, how she is preparing, and what turning 50 means to her. 

There is something about turning fifty that makes us all reflective and with a tendency to do some of our own personal development. I did that. And Rachel is doing that. 

A few of the insights from this conversation:

1.     Turning 50 is a moment for pause to reflect and look back at all of the phases of your life, those different journeys and to  realize that not having your life together 100% is pretty normal.

2.     Fifty is definitely a time of personal growth. It’s the time you finally learn to set boundaries with intent so in order to be the best version of you without any regrets

3.     Fifty is a time of mindset change and shifting priorities. For Rachel, she is I making herself a priority and realizing that she not going to please everyone, so she is giving herself permission to stop trying.

This is also to time to really start to evaluate your overall health. We all want to be here long after we turn 50, so we talk about the health coaching that she and I did, what she learned, what she implemented, and the results that she has seen.

Make sure to FOLLOW this show if you don't already, and RATE AND REVIEW or SHARE it with a friend that also may be turning 50 this year. 

And if you are wanting to focus on your health moving into your 5th decade, make sure to check out the Midlife in Motion program .

I hate to keep harping on resolutions and health resolutions in general, but I've been where you are. I'm made so many declarations at midnight on the 31st, only to give up  by now. 

I was going to:

·       Workout or Exercise More
·       Eat less and focus on better nutrition
·       Drink less alcohol
·       Drink more water
·       Get more sleep

To be so fired up in the beginning and doing all the needed preparation to keep those promises to yourself. But maybe you are like every other normal person and are struggling right about now.

What did you miss? Well I think you missed this very important item. Clarity. I know that when I've failed at similar things that I have forgotten to do this very important thing. The truth is, how do you know where you are going if you don't know where you are starting?

Thank you for listening today and don't forget to SHARE this episode with a friend so that they can do this thing too in order to be successful this New Year. And throw this podcast a 5 Star Rating and Review! I'd be so grateful!

There are a lot of things we try to train ourselves to do at the beginning of a new year. We write out lists of resolutions about them. I am going to quit drinking. I am going to get more sleep. I am going to call my mom more. I am going to practice more self-care. 

Unfortunately, these things are not as easy as training yourself to write or type the new year. Resolutions are quick fixes, quick answers to “what is this next year going to look like?” And like most quick fixes, they usually don’t hold.

What you need is to set a goal. Whether that is for your career, your love life, or your health.  Setting goals isn’t an either-or or all or nothing.

OK - I'm beating this resolution thing to within an inch of it's life. But now is the time to recognize that resolutions suck. Sorry, not sorry. Anyway, soon we'll only be talking about goals. That is a good thing.

I'm also going to be beating a dead horse about my 30-day Midlife In Motion program - I gotta let people know about it cause it's awesome. So if you get tired of hearing about it, just get on the waitlist and then skip through that section of the podcast. I won't be offended.

We all have the best of intentions, especially at the start of a new year. We are going to do better or turn things around. We resolution ourselves without setting ourselves up with a plan to achieve the success. One of the big keys to any kind of healthy lifestyle for 2023 is going to be the need to recognizing and breaking any kind of sugar or carb addiction that you have. And more than likely, you have one.

Today, Lifestyle Medicine Physician Dr. Lucy Burns is with us to help us do just that. To help us recognize our sugar addiction and become more aware of what it is, where it came from, what it does to our bodies, and finally what we can do to break that sucker!

Some of the things we discuss:

• The Keys to Healthy Living
• What are Sugar and Carb Addictions
• Do YOU have a sugar addiction?
• The Brain and Dopamine
• Society And Marketing's role in our addictions
• The emotions of eating
• Why are we overweight?
• How much sugar should we be ingesting daily?
• Treatment of obesity vs. Prevention of obesity
• How to begin to tame the Midlife Middle
• How much protein should we be getting?
• Mindset in the whole process
• Toxic diet culture

I hope that you will find Lucy at all of the following places:

Functional Medicine Doctor Deanna Holdren is here to talk to us about that #1 worry most of us have at midlife - the menopausal weight gain. So many of us think that it is normal and just something to accept, but that is not true. There are ways to combat this weight gain that are totally within our control with diet and exercise.

In this episode we talk about:

• What is functional medicine and the importance of it
• How we eat and what we eat affects our bodies and genes
• What is menopausal weight gain and how does it happen
• How important is movement
• What is intermittent fasting and what does it do for weight loss
• The menopausal bloat vs menopausal weight gain
• The extreme and invasive procedures of losing weight
• What does a healthy gut microbiome do for us
• The #1 thing we can do to lose belly fat
• How much protein should we be getting
• What supplements should you be taking
• How soon can I see results

You will want to listen to this episode a couple of times and then go get Dr. Deanna's book - the "Dr. Deanna's Healing Handbook" in order to find out all of the WHYS behind your good health. You can find it at Amazon at this link:

If someone wanted you to give a "Year in Review" would you know what you would highlight or mention as goals reached or know of things you definitely want to continue to work on into the next year?

This is my Redesigning Midlife and very personal 2022 Year in Review and Setting of 2023 Intentions. I seriously believe that reviewing and setting new intentions or goals keeps all of your efforts focused forward - every single day. Some things may happen, some may not, but it  you put in effort - the needle WILL move.

Thank you for listening this year and I look forward to bringing you even more goodness in 2023. I hope you find peace and really start to prioritize your health and wellness in this next year. Don't forget that if you need a good starting place for your fitness and nutrition journey, the MIDLIFE IN MOTION 30-day program will be available at the end of January.

Performance and Mindset Coach Leah Jantzen has heard all of the midlife excuses - I can’t. I don’t have time. It costs too much. I don’t know how. I’m too old. And on and on.  She says it's time to put yourself on the hook for a change. Of course you can, change your priorities. Choosing good health doesn't cost anything. Everyone has time. And what is too old? There is no such thing.

Leah knows that if she can do the things she has done, then so can you. And she has done some amazing things this year. She'll tell us all about those things and how she was successful before delving into how we can do the same things at whatever level we would like to be successful. It's all about mindset, having a desire, making the choice, and then being committed to it.

Better health is a needed investment in yourself. And what do we call investment in yourself - GOOD SELF-CARE! And that is something we all need.

I am so honored to have Leah back on the podcast this year. She was on last January to talk to us about getting back on track with resolutions, which you should check out.

If you would like to find Leah, make sure to follow her on instagram:

Hey midlife friend! Christmas is over. 2022 is ALMOST over. 2023 is staring you in the face. And you have big plans that you will start January 1st. You are going to lose weight, drink water, eat better, get lots of sleep, and workout - every day - starting January 1st.

Has this plan ever worked more than a few days to a week for you? What are you waiting for? Why not start TODAY instead of January 1st? At least on ONE of the things you plan to tackle - if you can a jump on one of them, the rest - drinking water, getting better nutrition, sleeping more, etc, will come easier.

It's better late than never.

If you are over 50 and need someone to help you get started with a good 30-day plan, I've got 2 spots available in January and would love to help you get on a good path to better health and to that weight loss if that is what you desire.

Email me at hello@lesleylmcshane.com so we can see if this would be a good fit.

Nobody should go it alone and having a coach by your side takes some of the pressure off. So I'm here for you.

Talk soon friends!

Are you feeling pressure to make this Christmas PERFECT for everyone else? Do you struggle with perfectionism on the whole?  Striving for perfection can be a terrible thing. It can make you highly critical of yourself and everyone around you. It forces you to have unrealistic standards, causes you to focus only on results and feeling depressed when those results don’t materialize. 

What is wrong with just doing your best and finding satisfaction in all of the things? Satisfaction leads to happiness. It gives you a sense of achievement. It makes you feel that life is good. Being satisfied is being content. And when you’ve done your best it simply means that all things considered, there are sufficient benefits and that you are driving continued improvement. 

My thought is that you need to enjoy life. Enjoy the ride. Enjoy the little things. Enjoy the wins. And don’t let some fake sense of perfection steal it all away from you.

We hope that you ALL have a very Merry Christmas and are setting up your 2023 to be the best ever!

As we age we become much more aware of regrets of our past and fear regrets that we may have in the future. While we can't fix the regrets of our past, except with the understanding that we were making the best decisions we could in the moment with the information we had, we can definitely focus on the things we may have regrets about later in life.

In order to combat these regrets, I've got three things you can start to do NOW to ease those regrets of the future. Start today and be aware of these things. Be present, Be curious, and take care of your health.

Your 70, 80, 90 year old self with thank you and thank me for making you aware.

Cheers friends.

You are about to give up. You just CAN'T start working out until after the holidays and January 1st gets here. BOO! It's just so not true. Just because it's a holiday week, doesn't mean you can't get a sweat on. Christmas isn't until next Sunday, so get moving!

This is your weekly kick in the pants! I've got your short Monday Morning Workout Motivation - you'll never feel crappy if you get a workout in, whether it is a good one or a bad one - but you'll always feel crappy when you don't get anything in. There are no bad workouts.

There. I said it. The only bad workout is one that didn't happen. Now get on it.

Till next Monday! And Merry Christmas.

According to AARP, Americans age 50 and up contribute so much to the U.S. economy that they’d constitute the world’s third-largest economy if they were counted as their own country. This comes as no surprise to Donna Korren, former magazine executive, Ted X speaker, writer, and brand collaborator.

Donna is with me to talk about how we as an "Over 50" demographic hold all of the cards when it comes to purchasing power, but may not realize it. We are all too worried about how to navigate this next chapter.

She encourages us to embrace our empty nests and become an emptyquester, someone who decides to get on with getting on and do the work to find out who they are NOW and start working toward something new. And what better way to do that than in community with other like-minded women.

And with our numbers, comes great power - she reports that the 50+ demographic is responsible for 56 cents of every dollar spent - 40% of gross domestic product. And brands are taking notice. Gone are the days of being told who we are by advertising and the media, it is time to self-represent and tell them who we are instead.

Donna is a wonderful facilitator working with women to figure out their next chapter and you can find her and her "What's Next Workshop" at her website:

Every single woman that I have coached and am coaching knows that I am going to mention resistance training and they know they should be doing it, but just don't - for no particular reason. But this type of strength training is so crucial to us as we age and I am going through five benefits you will get if you add it to your workout plan.

Let's just say that you can slow down and even reverse sarcopenia - muscle loss, you can build bone and avoid Osteoporosis, it will help your flexibility, balance, and coordination, helps prevent chronic diseases such as diabetes and heart disease, and helps your general overall health.

I encourage you to start your 2023 by adding resistance training, lifting weights, and strength training into your overall workout plan. You don't have to love it or even like it when you start, but when you begin to gain strength, you'll want to keep going.

If you would like to work with me to add some resistance training into your plan, email me at hello@lesleylmcshane.com and we can see if it would be a good fit for you.

How is your self-talk? Do you look in the mirror and wonder where that 25 year old went? Do you only see your gray hair, wrinkles, and extra weight? Let me break it to you gently, you will never be 25 again. That ship has sailed. What you DO need to be focusing on is not Anti-Aging, but Aging Well.

And part of aging well is doing the things you know will keep you in top shape mentally and physically.  A consistent exercise routine is one of those. And being consistent means making that CHOICE every day to put your health first. Making that choice once is easy, but making it day after day is hard. But you can do it because you absolutely deserve to feel your very best every day as you age.

A big welcome back to the podcast to Dr. Kelly Casperson. Kelly is a urologist with advanced training in pelvic medicine and surgery, but most important for us, she is working hard to normalize how we talk about and approach sex, because let’s face it, a lot of us were left in the dark on the subject as we grew up.

She has authored a book with the same title as her podcast "You Are Not Broken" to bring awareness to some real basic and fundamental facts that we may not know about sex itself, sexual desire, menopause and hormone replacement therapy, and life around our sex lives in general. She calls it her advocacy work.

A few takeaways from today's conversation:

Two things all women 50+ should know about their bodies that they may not know: 

1. The clitoris is where your orgasm comes from. Not the Penis in Vagina or PIV. The clitoris is the target.

2. Everything in your life affects your sex life. Your sex life is not in a bubble. The way you live your life affects your sex life. If you are sleeping poorly, if your health is bad, if your thoughts are negative, If your relationship isn’t doing well, if you think the dishes in the sink getting done is more important than sex – all these things will affect your sex life.

Other Takeaways:

3. It’s important to ask yourself – who do you want to be when you are 74? You need to prioritize sleep and exercise and eating right because if you want to keep feeling great long into the future you’ve got to do the things that 74 year old will be grateful for the 50 year old put into thought and into action. 

 4. A woman’s desire doesn’t necessarily come before sex. It may come before, it may come during and it may not happen until after. Wow that was great. I forgot how great it is, can you remind me how great that is?

 5. Menopause is normal if you are blessed enough to live that long – it’s going to happen. And it’s important to communicate with your partner about what you learn about menopause and explain what you are going through. Otherwise they are just guessing themselves. And that never goes well.

Make sure to listen to Kelly on her podcast "You Are Not Broken" and find her book at Amazon: https://a.co/d/1kGQvGC
It is also available on Audible.
