Fat loss over 40 doesn’t require more restriction.
It requires understanding how to influence the signals your body responds to.

In this episode, we’re breaking down why hormones play such a powerful role in fat loss after 40—and why waiting for them to “balance themselves” keeps most women stuck.

You’ll learn why your body is constantly receiving instructions to either burn fat or store it, and how those instructions can be intentionally changed. If you’ve felt like your metabolism is running the show—or that fat loss is no longer in your control—this conversation will reframe what’s actually possible.

🎧 Press play if you’re ready to stop reacting to your hormones and start directing them.
