What if the reason you're tired, gaining weight, and losing balance has nothing to do with aging — and everything to do with one thing you're probably not doing?

Janet Uribe, ND, wellness coach and competitive runner, joins our weekly conversation to break down why strength training after 40 isn't optional — it's the single most important investment in your future self. But here's where it gets interesting: the connection between your muscles and your blood sugar may surprise you, and the truth about the vitamin industry? Most women are spending money on supplements they don't actually need.

Janet also reveals the one myth that keeps women out of the weight room — and why it's completely wrong. Plus, a candid conversation about at-home blood work, what 116 biomarkers can actually tell you, and the real question to ask before you pop another supplement.

Listen in to learn more about strength training for women over 40, supplement myths and vitamin testing, and how to take control of your health data.

Women Over 40 Your Next Chapter Reflection

What if legacy isn't something we leave behind someday, but something we're building right now? In this episode of The Weekly Conversation, Cindy, Luciana , Janet , and Sheila talk about what it means to live with purpose and intention every single day.

Luciana shares how her work with Everline Legacy helps families preserve the stories, traditions, and memories that connect generations, and why the questions we never think to ask are often the ones that matter most.

Janet opens up about defining your values and letting them guide your decisions, no matter what season of life you're in.

And the conversation takes a personal turn as the group talks about wellness, healthy habits, and the small, consistent choices that keep us showing up for the people we love.

Whether you're just starting to think about your purpose or actively living it, this conversation will remind you that your story matters, and it's never too late to start telling it.

We gather every Monday for real conversations about legacy, wellness, and community. No scripts, no pressure, just women showing up for each other. If that sounds like something you've been looking for, we'd love to have you join us.

In this community conversation, five women sit down to talk about something most of us have felt but rarely say out loud. Friendships shift. Some fade. And making new ones after 40 can feel awkward in ways nobody warned you about.

One woman reconnected with a friend after 30 years and discovered something unexpected about who they'd both become. Another left her country, her career, and her entire social circle behind and had to start from zero. And when the group starts talking about what they actually need from the people around them now, the answers get surprisingly honest.

What does a "personal board of directors" look like when you're building a business, navigating a career pivot, and trying to remember to take care of yourself at the same time? And why does telling someone else your goal make you more likely to actually do it?

Listen in to learn more about building meaningful friendships after 40, creating accountability in your business journey, and finding community during major life transitions.

What does stress actually look like for women over 40? Not the textbook version. The real one.

This week, Janet leads a guided breathing exercise designed to help you release what you've been carrying. Then the three of us get honest about how we each handle stress differently, and why the methods that actually work are never the ones we expect.

One of us commits to cutting out sugar for the week. One shares a technique that turns a messy piece of paper into the most liberating five minutes of your day. And Luciana tells a story about baby ducks that somehow becomes the best lesson on paying attention you'll hear all week.

August is National Wellness Month. This month's theme is the Self Care Reset. Next week: boundaries.

In the very first session of The Weekly Conversation, Sheila Slick introduces the community and walks through the three pillars that hold everything together: community, wellness, and purpose. Janet Uribe leads the room through a guided breathing exercise and explains why breathwork is one of the most powerful free tools we have for managing stress. Luciana Pitta shares her journey from leading cancer research at one of Latin America's largest public health institutions to building a new life in the United States, and why preserving family stories through her company Everline Legacy became her next chapter.

Then the real conversation begins. Each woman shares which pillar she needs most right now, and the answers might surprise you. Luciana chooses wellness over purpose. Sheila admits she needs the same push. And Janet talks about finding her way back to serving women through the health knowledge she spent years building.

This is what The Weekly Conversation sounds like: three women being honest about where they are, what they need, and what comes next.
