The Flipping 50 Show

If you know what really causes cancer you can make better daily choices to prevent it or prevent recurrence.  My guest today overcame her own cancer 100% naturally. She’s not the only one. Knowing we each have cancerous cells in our bodies that do or don’t express based on our epigenetics or lifestyle choices, can empower us to learn and then choose more wisely. In the first few minutes of this episode you will learn something that will blow your mind. Think of it as what you wish you’d always known about lab testing. Especially if you’re someone who has always been “normal”...

If you’ve looked in the mirror lately and you see something that makes you wonder about surgery or botox and that is just not you, but you’d love a natural facelift with no negative side effects, this is for you. First though, I’m a low maintenance girl. I am also a skeptic. Look, I get access to some truly amazing products and I’ve shared my favorites with you.

How to Lose Weight for Active Women Over 40: Women’s Exercise Nutrition show art How to Lose Weight for Active Women Over 40: Women’s Exercise Nutrition

The Flipping 50 Show

Many women want to lose weight. To lose weight for active women over 40, they also don’t want performance to deteriorate. There are a few things to consider. First, it’s not the eat less, exercise more dogma that will get you what you really want.  Most women want energy, tone and definition, and strength for now and later. Better blood sugar control that supports reductions in belly fat and overall insulin sensitivity.  Am I right? But eating less and exercising more - if successful at all during menopause and post - will generally cause the opposite. Less energy, worse mood,...

5 Books I Loved in 2023 | Gift Ideas  show art 5 Books I Loved in 2023 | Gift Ideas

The Flipping 50 Show

Fair warning: this 5 books I loved in 2023 episode will read a little like a book review. It’s a great gift guide but perhaps the biggest take-away for us all is in the review of titles. I won’t make you wait. I’m going to share them all in the beginning. The titles are like trends on skinny jeans or cropped tops and high-waisted tights. I didn’t love either of those. With these I’m less judgmental but certainly curious. This says a lot about what sells today. Because of course, don’t judge a book by it’s cover… but we do. The image, the title, the subtitle all matter a great...

What Is BioHacking? | Women’s Health  show art What Is BioHacking? | Women’s Health

The Flipping 50 Show

Before I go further you should know, I’ve despised the word “hacking” for a long time. For me it seemed like code for shortcut, cheat, and quick fix. And a decade ago I think that was true. But I know better and the biohacking we’re talking about here is very different. It’s not cheating the system but rather getting a bonus. If you lift weights and can’t lift heavy, the use of a whole body vibration tool may give you a bonus benefit of bone density you can’t get otherwise. If you can lift heavy, I for one am using it for the icing on the cake it can be.  Biohacking is a...

If you’ve experienced this… I want you to to know the #1 reason you’re not getting results from my 40 years experience, and most of all from the most recent comments, DMs and group conversations we have. Said 100% with respect to us all… but we have failed to commit to any one. While we’re complaining about the abundance of overwhelming and often conflicting information, we fail to realize it’s us who continues to let it in.  Not saying that we should stop trying to learn or gain knowledge. You know I share summits with you from time to time. I share experts with you right...

Today I invite you to listen to a sneak peek of a menopause fitness coaching session from the exclusive STRONGER coaching call library. What questions do women in a 12-week strength training program with varying levels of experience with strength training ask? This is where you find out. The actual coaching session isn’t edited. It occurred on zoom with the option of joining by phone or any device with attendees on camera or not, using chat to ask questions so that sound distractions are minimal. 

I’m seriously pulling back the curtain today with this episode. I’m sharing one of the live coaching calls for our Stronger 12-week program for women in menopause. In this particular call I answered questions about: 

  • Exercise form 

  • Hip mobility 

  • Lunges 

  • Progression 

Before we dive into this episode, it might help to know that every Saturday the menopause fitness coaching sessions for STRONGER are more action-oriented and held in space so I can not only answer but demonstrate form, technique or offer an alternative to an exercise that isn’t working for someone. What you’re hearing is a Tuesday call so there are some follow up questions based on the Saturday session. 

STRONGER’s Menopause Fitness Coaching Sessions 

Every week the calls occur Tuesday - Saturday and were purely coaching from our STRONGER 12-week participants. That is, I don’t bring an agenda or content. I suggest Saturdays are dedicated to demonstrations and questions about comfort or improving form. I also do contribute something extra that may be related, I let participants' questions guide the content. It’s about answering your questions in real time. 

This episode is a peek from week 5. The questions in the first weeks have ranged from: 

  • Protein - how much and how much will we absorb

  • Eating before and after workouts

  • Before strength vs before HIIT or walking 

  • Why certain exercises may not feel good and what to do instead

  • Muscular fatigue 

Questions were submitted via the live calls in the chat on Zoom. We’ve had a few questions asked in the Facebook group to be answered on the calls. And there were a few individuals choosing not to use FB and who are on the other side of the world that need to send questions to our support team that made it to the Question list so they can find them in the library. 


To see a real example of how we label each call with hints at the content I’ve included a picture (above) of what it looks like when you have this library. The Library is included in this 12-week session of STRONGER. You get all 60 sessions to click to whenever you want them. You’ll always have access to them there in the courses area. (valued at $497)
