There comes a moment for many women in their late 30s or 40s when the body starts whispering, then shouting, that something is shifting.

The quality of your health—physical, mental, and emotional—determines the quality of your life. The quality of your relationship (with yourself and others) also determines the quality of your life! I post a lot about health and fitness because that’s what I do. I’m a health and wellness coach and personal trainer, and I’ve been doing…
