Here’s what you don’t see.

You don’t see the loose skin. Hello, I’m a mom of two. 

You don’t see the years I worried my legs were getting too big. 

You don’t see that I’m 5’3”, so there’s less room for error.

And maybe you’ve assumed it’s just easier for me. 🤷‍♀️

I used to think that about every woman who had what I wanted.

It does take work, physical and mental. But most of it is knowing what your body needs now, and that part can be learned.

And it happened because as I got older, I raised my standards. For my energy, for my mood, for the promises I make, for my future.

So here’s what I stopped worrying about at 50:

Thinking about stretch marks. At all.

Equating my best physique with how lean I am.

Comparing myself to women who look ripped but aren’t healthy.

Expecting the same habits to give me the same body forever.

Negotiating with myself.

Making excuses. If I’m tired, that’s on me.

My body changed in my 40s. Yours is changing too. 

The habits that worked at 35 stop working, and nobody tells you why. 

That part isn’t your fault. What you do next is yours. 

Increase your standards for yourself, because that is what you deserve and it’s what your 80 year old self will be grateful for. 

You don’t need 20 years to learn what I learned. I’m teaching you what’s changing in your body and what to do about it, live in my free masterclass, Age Reversal Weight Loss Secrets for Women Over 40, Friday, October 16 at 8:30am PT / 11:30am ET.

Follow me first so it lands in your DMs, then comment SECRET and I’ll send you your seat.

Save this for the next time you pinch your stomach in the mirror.

Send it to the friend who thinks every fit woman over 40 just has it easier.
