About this listen
Description:
If you're already showing up, moving your body, watching what you eat, and still wondering why it feels so much harder than it used to, this episode is for you.
In this honest and science-backed chat, Ro shares exactly why the approach that got you results in your 20s and 30s is now working against you, and it has nothing to do with willpower or getting older. It's about understanding what your midlife body actually needs.
Ro gets into the real reason high intensity exercise and calorie restriction can leave you more depleted than when you started, why your body reads stress as stress (yes, that includes your workouts), and how finding your own personal formula is the shift that changes everything.
She also opens up about her own experience with burnout, the evolution of The SHE Collective, and why she's never been more excited about the direction they're heading.
You'll come away with a clearer understanding of how to work with your body in midlife, not against it.
In this episode:
- Why crash diets and high intensity classes stop working in midlife
- The nervous system piece nobody is talking about
- Ro's own personal formula (strength, walking, and spin)
- What SHIFT is and how it can help you find your starting point
- The new chapter for The SHE Collective
