Midlife Health Resilience and Returning to Your Authentic Self with Sage Robbins

from Well Beyond 40 · host JJ Virgin

"I think true resilience is appreciating what life is offering and finding the gift in it. Finding the gift in the confusion or the gift in the pain, the gift in this circumstance." - Sage Robbins When I first encountered Sage Robbins at the World's Hottest Menopause Party, I was completely awestruck by her presence - not just how she showed up, but how truly present she was. This woman embodies the profound intersection of grace and power that comes from a 20-year journey of health struggles, hormone chaos, and ultimately finding her way back to herself. After enduring multiple miscarriages, IVF cycles, a pituitary tumor, and hormonal imbalances so severe a doctor said her profile looked like "a woman transitioning into a man," Sage discovered something revolutionary: she had to become the CEO of her own health and vitality. Her story isn't just about overcoming health challenges - it's about that beautiful midlife awakening where you stop trying to be who you think you should be and start celebrating who you actually are. From learning to trust her body instead of fighting it, to developing micro-habits that transformed her energy, to mastering the art of presence through 60-second meditations, Sage shows us how to navigate life's inevitable storms with resilience and grace. This conversation will shift how you think about your relationship with your body, your mind, and most importantly, yourself. What You'll Learn: How to shift from self-loathing to self-trust when it comes to your body and health The game-changing mindset that makes you the CEO of your own vitality and wellbeing Why micro-workouts and exercise snacks can be more powerful than hour-long gym sessions Simple daily habits that support hormone balance and sustained energy as you age The 60-second meditation technique that helps you find presence anywhere, anytime How to distinguish between pushing through with force versus cultivating magnetic resilience Why returning to your authentic self becomes possible (and essential) in midlife The difference between surviving life's challenges and finding the gifts within them Love the Podcast?
