The Real Reason You Haven't Started Lifting Weights

Struggling to get started with weight lifting, even though you know you “should” do it in perimenopause?

What if the reason you haven't gotten started has nothing to do with time, motivation, or finding the right plan? Not your schedule, not your willpower, and definitely not the fact that you're in your 40s.

I want you to THINK differently about strength training in your 40s. 

Inside this episode I'm walking you through the two layers of resistance that keep you stuck before you ever pick up a weight, why your brain works so hard to keep you on the couch, and the commitment that finally made lifting stick for me after years of starting and stopping.

After listening you'll understand why the low-cost workout plans, the gym membership you never use, and the saved Instagram workouts haven't gotten you moving, and why more options was never the missing piece.

If you're constantly asking yourself "Why can't I just make myself do it?", this episode is for you.
