In this enlightening chat with strength coach extraordinaire Steph Gaudreau, we dive headfirst into the adventure of building strength, making bold life leaps, and embracing growth in midlife with open arms (and maybe some dumbbells). Steph drops truth bombs about strength training for women over 40 and reveals how picking up new skills can be the ultimate form of self-care.

We also explore…

• Why giving yourself permission to pivot isn’t just okay—it’s the secret sauce to living your most deliciously fulfilling life
• The real scoop on why strength training is a midlife woman’s BFF (hint: it’s not about looking good in skinny jeans)
• How challenging your brain with new skills can put more life into your life
• Recovery and training hacks that actually work with your hormones instead of against them
• No-nonsense advice for building a fitness practice that’ll keep you crushing it for decades—because midlife is just the beginning of your strongest chapter

Whether you’re contemplating a major life shake-up or simply want to feel like a badass after 40 (or both!), this episode serves up the inspiration and practical wisdom to help you embrace your strongest, most vibrant self in midlife and beyond.
