In today’s episode, we’re tackling the overwhelming urge to quit—specifically, quitting on your journey to better health in midlife. Life is full of obstacles that make sticking to healthy habits tough, whether it is illness, injury, a packed schedule, or the frustration of slow progress. When things get hard, quitting is the easiest option, but it doesn’t lead to growth, confidence, or success. Instead of giving in, you need a plan to push through setbacks and stay on track.The key? Accept what’s happening and add “BUT.” Shift your mindset from frustration to problem-solving: “I’m sick, BUT I’ll rest and bounce back tomorrow,” or “The scale hasn’t moved, BUT I know I’m getting stronger.” Small mindset shifts keep you from falling back into old habits. So before you quit, take a beat, reframe the situation, and stay true to your goals. And hey—if this episode resonated with you, don’t forget to leave a 5-star review.

WELCOME TO FEBRUARY!Making it through Dry January is a major accomplishment, but it comes with its challenges. Throughout the month, there are moments of withdrawal, even for occasional drinkers. The cravings for a drink at the end of a long day or during social events can be strong, and resisting them requires mindfulness and intention. Many people experience emotional ups and downs, ranging from frustration to moments of clarity and accomplishment. The struggle often comes down to making a conscious choice in each moment rather than reacting out of habit. Overcoming the initial discomfort is tough, but the sense of control and achievement that follows can be incredibly rewarding.Now that Dry January is over, the question becomes: what’s next? Does the commitment end on February 1st, or does the journey continue? Choosing to remain sober, even temporarily, is a decision that extends beyond just one month. The realization that cutting out alcohol has benefits—such as weight loss, financial savings, and a greater sense of control—can be compelling reasons to continue. Whether someone decides to stay alcohol-free, moderate their drinking, or return to old habits, the key is making mindful choices. For those who missed Dry January, starting in February or any other month is just as valid. Sobriety is not about the calendar; it’s about making choices that align with one’s personal goals and well-being.Check out Episode 262 on Gray Area Drinking with Kari Schwear: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1594894/episodes/14187380Find me on my Website:https://www.lesleylmcshane.comQuestions?

This week, I’m reflecting on what it means to truly commit to your workouts and nutrition. It’s so easy to get started and just go through the motions, but phoning it in doesn’t help you reach your goals. Whether it’s cutting your workout short, dragging out rest periods, or barely moving your legs on the bike, half-assing your efforts only prolongs your results. If you’re going to do it, be all in—focused, intentional, and ready to get it done.The same goes for your nutrition. Following your plan all week only to undo your progress over the weekend or breaking your commitment “just this once” is self-sabotage. Sticking to your goals is about deciding whether you’re fully in or out—there’s no middle ground. Remember, something is better than nothing, but full effort is what truly drives success. Don’t settle—commit and make it count.Find me on my Website:https://www.lesleylmcshane.comQuestions?

The week between Christmas and New Year often feels overwhelming as we set lofty expectations and resolutions for the new year. But let’s face it—life happens. Changes in work, finances, health, and relationships can shift priorities in an instant. Often, we set ourselves up for failure by overloading on too many goals. By the second Friday in January, known as "Quitter’s Day," most resolutions are abandoned. This year, let’s do it differently.What if you focused on one big thing for 2025? Identify the one goal that would make you proud a year from now. Say it out loud, own it, and map out small steps to move toward it. Whether it’s improving your nutrition, fitness, or overall well-being, start small and focus on just January or even the first week. Clear out the clutter—both in your pantry and in your mind—and take the first steps toward your goal. Whether it’s a 5-day clean eating challenge, a new workout routine, or simply getting better sleep, make choices that align with the future you want. Life doesn’t stop, and neither should you.

I've had the privilege of witnessing the ebbs and flows of countless women on their midlife health journeys. One undeniable truth that emerges time and again is the rollercoaster of emotions tied to progress, especially when it comes to weight. Week by week, I've seen elation morph into frustration at the slightest deviation from expectations on the scale. But here's the thing – progress isn't always measured in pounds lost. It's about recognizing the victories, big or small, and understanding that the journey is rarely a straight line. It's about perseverance through the tough times, knowing that each step forward, no matter how small, is a testament to your strength and commitment. So, to all the women out there navigating the challenges of midlife, remember to focus on how you feel, the strides you've made, and the unwavering belief that better days are ahead. Keep pushing forward, because an amazing week is just around the corner.So go out and get that midlife body moving!Find me on my Website:https://www.lesleylmcshane.comQuestions?

We have certain ideas of how we "think" we should feel or perform in our workouts at our age. But bottom line: We will never feel the same way we did when we were 20. We won't be able to throw as far, run as fast, hit as hard - and so on and so on. You have to learn to be okay with that and work to just be as fit as you can for the age you are.  You might even surprise yourself.Give this motivational episode a listen and the GO DO THE THING - MOVE THAT MIDLIFE BODY! xoFind me on my Website:https://www.lesleylmcshane.comQuestions?

Performance and Mindset Coach Leah Jantzen has heard all of the midlife excuses - I can’t. I don’t have time. It costs too much. I don’t know how. I’m too old. And on and on.  She says it's time to put yourself on the hook for a change. Of course you can, change your priorities. Choosing good health doesn't cost anything. Everyone has time. And what is too old? There is no such thing.Leah knows that if she can do the things she has done, then so can you. And she has done some amazing things this year. She'll tell us all about those things and how she was successful before delving into how we can do the same things at whatever level we would like to be successful. It's all about mindset, having a desire, making the choice, and then being committed to it.Better health is a needed investment in yourself. And what do we call investment in yourself - GOOD SELF-CARE! And that is something we all need.I am so honored to have Leah back on the podcast this year.

In this episode, I engage in a dynamic conversation with Donna Klassen, co-founder, and CEO of Let's Talk Menopause. The episode underscores a pivotal shift in menopause  – it's not just about talking; it's about making tangible changes. Notably, a groundbreaking bill for increased menopause research funding was introduced in the House in December, signaling a crucial first step in addressing the under-researched realm of menopause.Donna emphasizes the urgency of getting science-based information to empower effective decision-making. The episode sheds light on the nuanced nature of menopause, urging listeners to embrace the journey and find ways to feel better, recognizing that not every day will be a triumph. Importantly, the conversation delves into the significant yet often overlooked aspects of menopause, such as the challenges faced by breast cancer survivors and the chronic and progressive nature of Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM). Throughout, the call for informed choices echoes, with practical advice on navigating the plethora of information available, and a plea for unity in supporting the Menopause Research & Equity Act of 2023. This episode not only informs but also inspires action, marking a crucial moment in the ongoing menopause movement!Find out more about H.R.6749, the Menopause Research & Equity Act of 2023 and about Let's Talk Menopause at their website: LET'S TALK MENOPAUSEor on INSTAGRAM.NAMS POSITION STATEMENT: The 2023 non-hormone therapy position statement of The North American Menopause Society Position PaperFind me on my Website:https://www.lesleylmcshane.comQuestions?

In this conversation with "Gray Area" Coach, Speaker, and Corporate Trainer, Kari Schwear, we learn how increased alcohol consumption can sneak up on us, moving into the abuse phase before we even realize it. We talk about the importance of paying attention to any internal questions and the dialogue we have with ourselves, urging us to "question the drink" rather than ignore it. Kari sheds light on the "gray area" of drinking, a space where many find themselves between social drinking and severe abuse. With six stages of change, she guides us from contemplation to preparation, urging us to find our own "enough." It's a crucial mission, as 50% of alcohol consumers fall into this gray area.We discuss the benefits of being sober or alcohol-free, which are MANY!  So, if you've ever questioned your drinking, remember, you're not alone, and it's okay not to be okay – start the conversation.Find Kari at her website: www.graytonic.comInterested in working on your gray areas in DECIDE 90?

If you skip this week's task, over time regular activities will become more difficult. And this could be the difference between feeling good or starting a slow slide into poor health.Moving around in various ways throughout the day helps you perform your daily activities. But if you don’t and find that you are stiff all the time, then getting up out of a chair, out of your car, and any number of other “regular” activities will become more difficult.Doing mobility and stretching exercises will keep your muscles flexible and having that flexibility will allow you to have a better range of motion in all of your joints.If you want to follow along with my 6-minute mobility routine - head to this LINK!Find me on my Website:https://www.lesleylmcshane.comQuestions?

In this episode, Clara Capano, an international speaker, trainer, and bestselling author, delves into the topics of burnout, success, and the quest for clarity. Clara highlights a common misconception – the belief that one can effortlessly keep all the plates spinning until realizing it's not sustainable. Recognizing the tendency to normalize life's hectic pace, Clara dispels the myth that seeking help is a sign of weakness. The episode delicately touches on the consequences of neglecting self-care, the thoughtful art of scheduling life, and the transition from pursuing a work-life balance to cultivating work-life harmony. Clara encourages listeners to liberate themselves from external expectations, embrace their unique visions, and, above all, stay present in their livesMake sure to go find Clara at her website:  https://www.claracapano.com/YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@MomentsofClaratyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/claracapano/Find me on my Website:https://www.lesleylmcshane.comQuestions?

Gratitude is a practice that people think is easy, but when we are surrounded by negative soundtracks all day, it is hard to come up with reasons why we are thankful. This week, let's focus on becoming aware of the things around us that we are thankful for and see how our minds starts to look for those things throughout the day. Thanks for being here and I look forward to having you back NEXT WEEK for WEEK 4.Until then, take care of yourself - prioritize your health and wellness.

Welcome my friend Mindset and Performance Coach Michael Seiler from Metta Endurance in this coaching session that he led for the women in the Midlife in Motion Fitness & Lifestyle program back in October. In this coaching session we dive into the transformative power of a positive mindset. Michael emphasizes the crucial role of mindset when tackling challenges, especially during the formation of habits. Whether facing obstacles or straying from the path, a positive mindset serves as the guiding force that helps individuals bounce back and stay committed. We also discuss imposter syndrome, a formidable obstacle for many. Michael stresses the importance of mindset in silencing the negative self-talk associated with imposter syndrome, highlighting the key hurdle of awareness. Shifting our language plays a pivotal role in our mindset process, as Michael encourages reframing phrases like "I need to" or "I have to" to "GET TO," illustrating how this simple twist empowers individuals and alleviates self-imposed pressure.
