Is ageing inevitable, ?
Yes.
But how you age is optional.
Always.
Social media would have us believe that the ageing woman is at the mercy of her growing years, and that metabolism naturally goes down, while weight and set point naturally goes up.
This is untrue. And yes, it can be turned around.
But it cannot be turned around by what is 'out there'. And that's why 90% of 40+ women are stuck circling the drain, going round and round, deeply engaged in the Diet Mentality (actually addicted to dieting), or trying to 'turn back the hands of time' in a world where ageing is seen as a lack, a loss, something we must fight against.
To age well, with health and vitality IS a blessing, but it is also a GIFT to the engaged and committed women. Problem is, most women are taught that it has to be 'hard', or it will be 'no fun'.
Women are taught that they have to forever do cardio, count every calorie, or fear the weekend when it all goes to hell in a handbasket (and she wakes up Monday morning, vowing to once again get it right, or face the self condemnation that always follows later on that night, or the next day).
This is simply not a way to live. This is NOT living.
We are in the best years of our lives, ladies. We are 40+, so we have (maybe and hopefully) another 30 or 40 years left on the planet.
So I say we make the most of it, claim and re-claim our bodies, our health, our spirits, our mindset, our lives.
No one will do it for us, this is on us. No web site, no Google search, no diet book (how many do you have on your shelves?)
No former competitor at the gym that has you eating chicken and broccoli can do it for you (and what is she doing calling herself a coach? She's a former competitor! I was one, 7 times over and I never, ever taught my clients to eat like a competitor! Ladies, beware!)
(PS and take note, this pic at 54 was my last show, and I was lean at 13% bodyfat. I did not stay there. You simply cannot. I added on a healthy 8 pounds and now sit at 19% bodyfat at 60, comfortably and with ease, because it is my 'normal'. It is my Lifestyle. THIS is what I want for all women!)
Our generation, the 40, 50, 60+ year old women of today, have the gift of being Pioneer Women, ageing differently, beautifully, with ease and pride, confidence and self love (self love...if that is an alien term, then we really gotta talk!). And it's not about working harder (and you're done with that anyway), it's about working differently.
Dare to be different. Dare to age differently, from an empowered place, not a place of anger or fear or sadness. These lower resonating places where we often slip to have no place in the life of an Empowered, healthy and courageous woman.
So make the choice today. It is all a choice. No matter your health, your challenges, no matter if we blame it on Covid (it's really not covid's fault!), our work, the government, shut downs to the economy...
If it's not this, it will be something else. Sadly, we are in a 'blame' culture. It is hardwired into our brains, and it shows up loud and clear in those people who draw on it as their weapon for why they are feeling the way they are, why they aren't further ahead, or why they feel so lousy in the bodies, why their health is suffering, why their lives are dull....etc etc.
The courageous one is the one that will step out on the periphery, and lay claim to what she wants...a Fresh Way, a New Way, a new view of the world that is built to support her dreams and her success.
So ask yourself, do you feel courageous today?
Are you ready to stop listening to the noise, the excuses, the bantering?
Are you ready to step in and claim your health, your future, your body, your energy and your life, right now?
Are you courageous, committed, coachable?
If so, book a call with me. We will chat about where you are stuck and what we need to do to get you unstuck (and if you're saying 'I know what to do but I'm just not doing it', then you don't know what to do. I work differently. You'll see. You don't know what you don't know, right?)
Surrender the fight, let me take the reins for a bit, and enlighten and inspire you. Because you need this. You really do.
2022 is coming fast, and so is every year after that. And if you didn't notice by now, time speeds up as you get older, right? (I was always told it would slow down. Nope!)
Here's the link (yes, it's a free call, of course). My calendar only opens up 3 days in advance, so if you don't see a later time, check back in a few days. I do work over the holidays...sparingly, but I am getting ready for a great 2022, and welcome inquiries at this time.
I am bringing my 14-week Over 40, MASTERY Program for Women, Apprentice Level to life early January, with limited seats. And it is for coachable women who are sick and tired of being sick and tired, and who want to do the steps necessary to become lean, healthy, and strong...so that when they walk into the room, everyone will be saying...'Holy, look at her! She looks fantastic!'
Now wouldn't that be nice? You betcha...!
Name it and Claim it ladies. I'll show you how!
Karen.
