Have you ever found yourself wondering how many meals you should be eating each day?
Should it be 2 meals, 3 meals, or 6 small ones?
With so much conflicting information out there, it's easy to feel confused.
In my latest podcast episode, I tackle this very question. I simplify the science and share insights on what meal frequency best supports your body, especially if you're a woman over 40.
Imagine this: One of my clients came to me as a grazer, eating small meals throughout the day. Despite her meals appearing healthy, she struggled with weight gain and imbalanced blood sugar levels. We made a few strategic changes, restructuring her meals into three well-balanced ones each day. The result? More energy, improved digestion, and better overall health.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
How to determine the best meal frequency for your body.
The pros and cons of eating 3 large meals versus 6 small ones.
Practical tips backed by research to help you make informed decisions about your eating habits.

So, you’ve been doing the 16:8 intermittent fasting thing, huh?
Maybe you're wondering if it's actually helping you lose weight or if it might be doing more harm than good.
You’re not alone! This is a question a lot of ladies have when they dive into the world of intermittent fasting.
In this episode, I'm sharing a portion of a recording from a live group coaching call with my VIP clients, coaching one of them through this very issue.
We’ll talk about weight loss, energy levels, and how intermittent fasting affects your metabolism, especially during perimenopause.
This is a common question I get, and I have many thoughts on fasting. I’ll cover more in a future episode because it’s something we have to be careful with, especially during the perimenopausal period of our lives. So, I thought I'd give you a little VIP access ticket to come in and listen to how it goes down inside my program.
As you listen, I want you to be encouraged to take notes and ask yourself, "How does this apply to me?" This isn't just about listening to the coaching call, but really taking the advice I'm offering and implementing it for yourself.
We'll cover topics like managing sleep, energy and timing of meals that support your metabolism. If you've been dealing with fatigue, cravings, and poor sleep, this episode is for you.
Tune in, take notes, and let’s get to it!

Have you ever had these thoughts?
"If I can only lose weight, I know I will feel healthy again.... I will get my energy back and be able to sleep through the night."
This is a common sentiment I hear from my clients.
But is it actually true? Is it as simple as this? Will losing weight actually make you healthier?
Let’s find out in today’s episode, and I’ll explain how you can achieve both very simply!
Many women, especially those in perimenopause and menopause, struggle with fatigue, bloating, and other symptoms like brain fog and constipation. They often think that losing weight fast will solve these issues.
However, true health involves more than just the number on the scale. In this episode, we dive into the complex relationship between weight loss and health.
If you’ve ever thought that losing weight is the magic key to health, or if you’re struggling with low energy and cravings despite being thin, this episode is for you.
There’s a point in our life when health and weight loss become significant interests, and that’s what I want to share today.
I see it as four categories:
Heavy and Exhausted Midlifer: Slow metabolism, low energy, tired, sleep issues, bloated, emotional eater.
Healthy but Heavy: Feels good, but can’t shed the weight.
Hustle Midlifer: Skinny but not healthy, hustling to stay thin, undereating, overexercising, food-obsessed.
Fierce Femme: Lean and healthy, metabolism doing the heavy lifting, food freedom, balanced hormones, healthy mindset towards food.
How do we get to the fourth category, becoming a fierce femme?
That's what we'll cover on this episode.
Bottom line: You choose your category—you don’t have to stick to one. You can feel and look better after 40 than in your 20s!
