204: Cardio Confidence — Your Heart, Your Pace After 50

from The Habit Thrive Podcast ~ Self Care Habits, Mindfulness & Wellness Routines for Women 50 & Beyond · host Lorrie Mickelson, Habits & Self Care

Cardio can feel like one of those things we know we’re supposed to do…But, somewhere along the way, it also became tied to pressure, intensity, sore knees, exhaustion, or feeling like we’re already behind.Today, on episode #204 of the Habit Thrive Podcast, we’re taking all of that energy out of it and having a much more real conversation about what heart health can actually look like in your Me Now Years.I’m sharing a little bit about my own history with cardio (including why I was never really a “cardio person”), how my walks have changed over the years, and why I’m personally rebuilding my endurance right alongside you this season.We talk about the difference between challenging your heart and punishing your body, why walking truly does count, and how movement can support everything from energy and blood sugar to mood, mobility, and longevity.This episode is your reminder that you do not need to train like an athlete to take care of your heart. You just need to keep moving in ways that work for your body, your life, and this chapter you’re in.Lorrie xoxoxLoving the show? Let’s connect!
