Welcome to Empower Your Menopause, the podcast where we bust myths, share strategies, and empower women to thrive in this next phase of life. It’s James and Juli here, and in this episode we’re diving into one of the simplest yet most powerful tools for better health in menopause: walking.

Walking might not sound exciting or glamorous, but it’s one of the most underrated ways to boost your physical health, mental clarity, and emotional wellbeing — especially for women navigating midlife. We’ll explore why walking is the ultimate hack for this stage of life and share practical tips to make it part of your daily routine.

And just to clarify - we are not advocates of looking for “Hacks,” because the truth is you can’t Hack - or shortcut - your biology. However, if there was such a thing, walking is the closest thing to “hacking” your health that we know of! So, grab your trainers, and let’s get moving!

Welcome to Empower Your Menopause, where we bust myths, break down barriers, and give you the tools to thrive in this next phase of life. It’s James and Juli here, and today we’re taking on one of the biggest misconceptions out there: that eating less automatically means weighing less. Spoiler alert—it’s not that simple, especially for women navigating perimenopause and menopause.

In this episode, we’re going to break down why the old CICO 'calories in, calories out' model doesn’t work for women over 40, how hormones and metabolism play a role, and most importantly, what you can do instead to feel confident, healthy, and empowered. Ready to rewrite the rules? Let’s dive in!
