Ep345: I’m 46... 9 Things I Wish I Started at 40

from Fit + Fueled Life Podcast

If you’re 40+ and wondering what you should be doing now to feel stronger, healthier, and more like yourself as you get older, this episode is for you. Tina shares 9 things she wishes she had started at 40—from the health habits she overlooked to the things that have made the biggest difference in how she feels, looks, and approaches aging today. These aren’t about chasing perfection or trying to turn back the clock. They’re the things Tina wishes she had known sooner and the things she would tell any woman in her 40s who wants to feel her best for the next decade and beyond. If you’re 40, 45, 50 or beyond, press play… you might just find a few things you want to start sooner rather than later! Here’s what you’ll learn: - Why I wish I had paid attention to progesterone sooner instead of assuming every new symptom was just part of getting older - The hormone I used to think of as a “male hormone” that I now pay much more attention to for muscle, strength, and healthy aging - Why glutathione became part of my focus as I started thinking beyond weight loss and more about cellular health - The biggest shift I made with protein and why I wish I had stopped being so focused on eating less years ago - The simple skincare ingredient I wish I had started using before I noticed changes in my skin. - Why I started paying much more attention to electrolytes and potassium and the easy food swaps that helped - The surprising lesson I’ve learned about rest days after 20+ years of training and why doing less can sometimes help you make more progress - Why I spent way too many years afraid of fruit and what changed my mind about carbs, fruit, and fueling my body - The one thing I wish I had invested in much earlier and why getting support, education, and community can be one of the best investments you make in yourself Substack: https://carrotsncake.substack.com/p/im-46-here-are-9-things-i-wish-i STACKED: GLP-1 + Peptide Support Membership: https://www.skool.com/stacked-glp-1-peptides-8761/about Carrots 'N' Cake cookbook: https://on.ltk.com/+WOy2AMXxxKv0fjEcHfjkvw Apply for coaching: https://forms.gle/JT74yhBgxQZRQvgZA Start your peptide journey with this 3-minute quiz: https://elliemd.com/recommendation/product?bp=carrotsncake Connect with Tina Haupert: https://carrotsncake.com/ Facebook: Carrots 'N' Cake https://www.facebook.com/carrotsncake Instagram: @carrotsncake https://www.instagram.com/carrotsncake YouTube: Tina Haupert https://www.youtube.com/user/carrotsncake About Tina Haupert: Tina Haupert is the owner of Carrots ‘N’ Cake as well as a Certified Nutrition Coach and Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P).
