Hello Beautiful!

Have you noticed your belly changing after 40—even though your habits haven’t? You’re eating well, trying to move more, maybe even squeezing in extra crunches or cardio, but nothing seems to work. That stubborn midlife belly fat can feel frustrating and defeating.

Here’s the thing: it’s not just about calories or willpower—it’s about hormones.

In this week’s episode, I sat down with Amy Bryan, host of the Fat Loss School podcast. Amy specializes in helping midlife women lose hormonal belly fat with strategies that actually work with your body, not against it.

Together, we talk about: ✨ Why belly fat shows up in midlife (and why it’s not just aging) ✨ The real connection between hormones, stress, and stubborn fat ✨ Why cardio and crunches don’t solve belly fat—and what does ✨ Simple, sustainable steps to balance hormones, build strength, and boost energy

This is a kinder way to lose belly fat—no fad diets, no punishing workouts. Just doable shifts that help you feel stronger, more confident, and more energized in this beautiful midlife season.

If you’ve been struggling with belly fat after 40, this conversation will give you the hope and tools you need to finally see change—and to start living more beautifully again.
