Weight Loss in Midlife: The go-to podcast for busy women over 40 ready to balance their hormones, lose fat, and feel strong for life.
You know what you should be doing to lose weight… but between work, family, hormones, and zero time for yourself, it feels impossible to stay consistent. One dinner out turns into a weekend spiral. You skip your workout because you’re exhausted. Stress hits, and suddenly you’re standing in the pantry again. And that “I’ll start Monday” diet cycle? You know it all too well.
If that sounds familiar, you’re in the right place, beautiful. Especially if you’re ready to stop the all-or-nothing cycle, balance your hormones, and finally lose fat for the last time.
This is the podcast for midlife women who want to feel confident, rebuild energy, and finally understand how to work with their changing metabolism during perimenopause. Inside each episode, we’ll simplify fat loss using macros, mindset shifts, better sleep, and exercise that fits your busy real life.
Hi, I’m Jennifer—a wife, mom of three boys, and certified women’s coach. I spent years trapped in that exhausting pattern of restricting during the week, overeating on weekends, and feeling like my willpower was the problem. But it wasn’t me. It was the approach.
After years of frustration, I discovered a new way rooted in science, sustainability, and grace. I learned how to use macros, mindset, and muscle to navigate perimenopause, balance hormones, and finally create a body (and life) that feels amazing.
Now, I help other women do the same.
On this podcast, I’ll teach you how to:
✔️Use macros to fuel your metabolism and lose fat without restriction
✔️ Exercise smarter with strength training and progressive overload (not endless cardio)
✔️ Improve sleep and stress so your body can actually respond
✔️ Build identity-based habits that last for life
✔️ Ditch the “start Monday” diet mindset—for good
✔️ Understand how to navigate life in perimenopause
Because you don’t need another diet, you need real-life strategies that work with your midlife hormones, busy schedule, and unique body. Approaches that are simple, sustainable, and rooted in grace, not guilt.
If you’ve been wanting to:
✨ Feel confident and strong in your body again
✨ Get off the diet rollercoaster
✨ Rebuild your energy, metabolism, and muscle
✨ Enjoy food and make progress toward your goals
…this podcast was made for you.
It’s time to stop putting yourself last. Let’s make midlife the season when you finally feel amazing—in your body, your mindset, and your life.
So grab your coffee, take a deep breath, and let’s get started.
Welcome to Weight Loss in Midlife—I’m so glad you’re here.

30 | Why Can’t I Stick to My Diet? How to Build a System That Actually Works for Busy Women
If you’ve ever thought, “I just need more willpower to lose weight,” … you’re not alone. Most busy women have been here. Starting Monday strong, white-knuckling through cravings, only to unravel by Friday night.
But here’s the truth: you’re not broken, weak, or lazy. The problem isn’t you. It’s the diet cycle itself. Willpower runs out, restriction backfires, and your body eventually fights back.
In today’s episode, I’m breaking down why willpower and restriction never work for lasting weight loss, and what actually does help you lose fat. You’ll learn how to create simple habits, realistic meal plans, and everyday strategies that help you stay consistent without feeling deprived.
We’ll cover:
✔️ Why dieting triggers cravings, binges, and self-sabotage
✔️ The difference between willpower vs. systems (and why systems always win)
✔️ Practical nutrition habits that fit into a busy woman’s life (without giving up pizza night)
✔️ How to build a supportive environment and social circle that keeps you on track
✔️ The role of self-compassion in staying consistent — no more “start over Monday”
