The Hormone Lie: Why ”Eat Less, Move More” Stopped Working
Are you a women in your late thirties to early fifties finding that all the things that used to work for weight loss just aren't working anymore? You're doing everything "right," eating clean, moving your body yet... nothing budges. The scale's stuck, the belly's stubborn, and you're tired of hearing "just try harder."
What if I told you it's not you. It's cortisol, burnout, and hormones shifting after decades of hustle—kids, work, life. This isn't about another diet. It's about balancing what decades of extreme diets, exercise, and chronic stress have thrown out of whack.
Eventually, the nervous and endocrine systems get burned out and that's when we start seeing that weight we've worked so hard to keep off start creeping back. We try harder, thinking cutting calories further, exercising more and harder will reverse it, but it's actually making matters worse.
In order to release the weight we need to calm the nervous system, fuel our bodies not starve, exercise in a way that supports hormones rather than adding stress, and change our inner dialogue.
I'm sharing what I'm learning live, no fluff. From stress hacks to hormone-friendly habits, we're figuring out why the old rules failed... and how to win now. If you're done fighting your body, come along. Midlife isn't the end, it's just a pivot point. Let's step into our queen era together!

Today's episode is all about the internal process of shifting to align with what we want to achieve or what we want to attract into our reality. Whether we realize it or not, we are always sending out an energetic frequency (i.e. signal) that is attracting things of a similar frequency back to us. So, if we want to change our outer reality, acquire a certain income level, or achieve a certain goal, we have to align to it. Today, I walk you through the process for doing just that. Today I break down:
1. Understanding the mechanics.
2. Awareness of your mindset.
3. Creating your new mindset.

Last, check out my FREE 30-Day training program or book a FREE transformation session with me if you are serious, not just curious about reaching your health and fitness goals. Before we jump into the nitty-gritty, let's acknowledge that embarking on a healthy lifestyle is not something you complete in a few weeks or days – it's a lifelong commitment to your well-being. And at the heart of this commitment lies the power of your mindset. Changing your body, whether it is losing fat or gaining muscle, is 20% exercise, 80% nutrition and 100% mindset. 99% of the time, people start on a diet or exercise plan and completely overlook or simply don’t know how to take the first steps to get their mind in the game. So, today, we are digging into the following strategies:
Clarify your intentions.
Set clear, specific goals.
Commit
Weight loss or body transformation is a process of internal change more than it is a process of external change. Most of the programs out there focus solely on the habits or strategies to change the external. Starting with the internal is the key to succeeding and sustaining a healthy lifestyle. I have created an amazing bundle designed to help you with this critical first step in starting your journey. It is called Clarify, Commit, Crush it! It is worth over $1,200 and I am offering it for $87. Use code FFJ87 and get it for $30 off, just for listening to today’s episode!

Before we can accomplish our goals, we have to make some shifts internally. Most of us don't consider this or don't know to do it in the first place. There are two key components to this that I discuss in today's episode: mindset and energetic alignment. These are also key components of my Phoenix Rising coaching programs, which take your results to the next level.
