She thought weight loss would make her feel better.

But what really changed her life?
🌟 Saying no without guilt
🌟 Choosing rest over approval
🌟 Letting herself feel sexy again

She stopped micromanaging calories.

She started reclaiming her boundaries,
her rhythm,
her spark.

Power isn’t a dress size.

It’s the moment you stop shrinking and start expanding.

That’s when the body responds.

That’s when life gets good.

Let's talk and make this happen!

I'm here for you

You might think these habits are “healthy”—
but they’re draining your midlife energy:

❌ Skipping breakfast
❌ Overexercising to burn calories
❌ Running on coffee and adrenaline

Here’s what your hormones actually need after 40:
✅ A protein-rich breakfast within 90 minutes of waking
✅ Strength-based movement with recovery
✅ Slow mornings, deep breaths, and nourishment that stabilizes blood sugar

Small shifts.
Big results.

Your body doesn’t need punishment.
It needs partnership. 🤍

DM me and let's talk :)

“She Was Doing Everything Right…”

…and still felt exhausted.

My client still couldn’t sleep.

She still carried weight her body wouldn’t release.

She ate clean.
Took supplements.
Meditated.

So why wasn’t it working?

Because her body was still in survival mode.

Until we softened her stress,
nourished her adrenals,
and calmed her nervous system…
nothing shifted.

Healing isn't about doing more.

It’s about doing it differently.

DM me if you are ready to heal.

I'm here for you.

You’re not tired because you're lazy.

You're tired because you're holding everything together.

The house.
The schedule.
The emotions.
The weight of being "on" all the time.

Your fatigue is not failure.

It’s a sacred signal from your body:
“Please, remember me.”

This week, instead of pushing harder…
💜 Breathe deeper
💜 Eat to nourish, not punish
💜 Rest like it’s medicine (because it is)

You’re not behind.

You’re being called back to yourself.

This is your Phoenix Phase. 🔥

DM me and let's talk about creating your Phoenix Phase.

Well, today is the day I embark on a trip of a lifetime!

I’m off to Indonesia with a group of scuba divers from Tropical Adventures Travel.

On Sunday we will board the Aurora Liveaboard and embark on a two week journey around Indonesia’s most magnificent waters, scuba diving up to 4x per day!

I’ll post some pictures when I can, but when we are on the boat there will be no internet (YAY!)

I will put a link below if you want to see any underwater videos from past trips.

I feel so much gratitude right now as I never thought I would ever have a chance to live this adventure.

I’ve always wanted to sail a Tall Sail Ship, and finally I have the chance!

It truly is a dream come true!

Thank you Ray Agterbos for this opportunity for adventure and growth (and consistently challenging me to push out of my comfort zone!).

It goes to show — never give up on your dreams!

What’s one dream you have dreamt about forever that hasn’t come true yet?

Emoji your Ultimate Dream below – it can be a holiday, a lifestyle, health, just anything.

Let’s have some fun with this!

To all of my Female FB Friends over 40:

Most of you know that I am a Licensed and Registered Holistic Nutrition Practitioner operating out of my home.
AND
Right now my practice includes working primarily with women over 40 (peri, menopause and post menopause)

I help women not only lose weight, but bring their life into balance, especially at this stage where
🌸their hormones are usually out of control,
🌸they are gaining weight
🌸and their stress levels are high
🌸AND they are usually seeing medicals that are less than ideal.

Holistic health is preventative health
which means we look at not only what’s going on inside the body,
but the life circumstances surrounding the client.

I help to bring everything into balance so weight loss becomes achievable again.

I think in our society, women have always suffered with weight issues,
even more so in peri and menopausal years and beyond.

I just help women love themselves again
and when that happens, the whole family benefits!

A little bit about me and why I decided to become a Holistic Health and Wellness Practitioner
(a brief rundown).
My dad died of cancer in 2013.
He was my rock when I was growing up until the day he died.
I had been eating clean and exercising most of my adult life
BUT
I had no idea what caused cancer and if there was anything that could be done to avoid getting it in the first place.
I decided to do a deep dive into the research, for my own longevity and also of my family’s
What I discovered horrified me (I won’t go down that rabbit hole here)
One of the things I discovered is that there are many, many things we can do to prevent and manage disease through nutrition alone, but many people don’t know that.
I decided I wanted to teach people how to do this.
So after over 30 years in the legal field, I went back to school to learn more about holistic nutrition so I can teach others what I know.
So I want to tell you, I am here for you, for whatever you need.
DM me if you are struggling with anything, or just have a quick food-related question.
I can help you.
Sue

PS. I am hosting a FREE webinar this Tuesday evening if you are over 40 and are struggling to lose that extra weight that just seems to have crept on and you can't seem to get rid of. I have 5 keys to lasting weight loss that I will be discussing. DM/Emoji me if you want more information. Registration closes tomorrow!

I'm so excited to announce this!

You might have been seeing my posts
talking about how you can lose weight holistically
by tweaking small things daily
to ensure you never to have to diet again.

Since those posts,
I've had quite a lot of comments and messages
requesting this info,
so I've decided to create an online workshop
on Tuesday, October 22, 2024, at 7:00 p.m. MST
and I'd love for you to join me!

It's called "5 Steps to Lasting Weight Loss"

DM ME TO REGISTER!

I'm going to show you my step by step formula
for weight loss over 40
so you can end dieting forever,
feel more confident in your clothes
and more vibrant in your life
WITHOUT counting calories or spending hours in the gym.

By the time the workshop has ended you'll know:

💜that you don’t have to count calories to lose weight

💜that you don’t have to spend hours in the gym on that horrid cardio equipment to lose weight (unless you want to!)

💜the philosophy behind why weight loss is in the mind, not in the kitchen.

💜how stress affects hormones and weight loss

💜how you can have lasting success going forward

If you're tired of losing and gaining weight
and want off the diet roller coaster
AND you want guidance you can trust
on how to lose weight that is healthy and sustainable,
this workshop is for you.

I'm so excited to teach this,
as it is exactly what I do in my own life
for sustainable weight loss.

I'd love for you to join me!
forward this post to a friend
so you can learn together!

If you have questions, let me know.
I look forward to seeing you on Tuesday!

Do you feel like you eat healthy and have tried lots of diets, but still struggle to lose weight & actually keep it off?

Are you frustrated with your busy schedule and struggle to find the time to meal plan and/or make healthy choices for your family?

Are you confused with all the diet “information” out there, and you just don’t have time to sift through it all to find the right plan for you?

I feel you. I know where you're at. I've certainly felt the pain, pressure and frustration of the diet world. I have heard from many women who also feel it.

If you are like them, you just want:
💜a plan that is easy, sustainable and one where you don't have to count calories;
💜a plan where you can create an exercise plan that works for you;
💜a plan that provides guidance moving forward so you never have to diet again
💜a plan that identifies what's wreaking havoc on your hormones so you can experience lasting weight loss and finally be at peace with your food and your body!

I have created a webinar that addresses these issues and shows you how it is all possible.

My training is called: 5 Steps to Lasting Weight Loss for women 40+ . . . so they can end dieting FOREVER, feel more confident in their clothes and more vibrant in their lives without counting calories or spending hours in the gym.

If any of this resonates with you, and if you said 'THAT'S ME", this webinar is for you!

Join me next Tuesday, October 22 at 7:00 p.m. It's a quick, webinar approximately an hour long that is packed full of great information.

If Tuesday doesn't work, you can watch the replay (if you register).

Emoji below if you are interested and I'll send you a DM with more info.

Tick-Tock, Turning Back the Hands of Time

We've established that our hormones are shifting
all the time, especially as we age.
Some head north,
some stay status quo
but most head south
like your breasts and bum. 😟
The ones that drop
are typically the ones that affect our weight gain.

Leptin receptors in the brain decline,
making it more challenging
to determine when you are full,
leading to a higher propensity to overeat.

S*x hormones (progesterone and estrogen) decrease,
affecting your bone health,
your heart health,
your midsection and your mindset.
Muscle mass dips and belly fat ripples.

Ugh.

What is the Action Step?

Aging isn't the sole culprit of midsection weight gain.
Lifestyle is a huge factor in slowing
and turning back the hands of time.

Come explore with me how to do exactly that by
Eating specific whole-foods that are low in refined carbohydrates

Living a clean lifestyle that minimizes hormone mimickers allows you to give your metabolism a necessary reboot.

Find out about how to do this in my 16 week Flourishing Through Menopause .. . and Beyond program. We go over EVERYTHING related to menopause:
hormones, sleep, stress, gut health, nutrition, exercise . . . 16 different topics in 16 weeks.

Want to learn more? I've included my link below. DM me (or emoji below) if you are interested.

The second start date is October 14 -- right after Thanksgiving. How would you like to LOSE weight this Christmas, without depriving yourself?

It can be done!

Losing weight after 40 . . .

Most women have experienced success in losing weight,
but very few keep it off for good...

In fact, depending on which study you believe
your chances of losing weight and actually keeping it off
is at best 20%, and at it's worst as low as 2%!

And typically not only do we regain the weight we lost,
we actually gain more back. 🥲

The problem is
that every time we diet,
and then rebound,
instead of questioning what's really going on,
we blame ourselves.

We beat ourselves up with all kinds of negative self talk
and criticism,
label ourselves as failures,
and our confidence and self trust drops lower and lower.

We keep on looking for the "magic meal plan",
label foods as "good" or "bad",
avoid social situations,
and impose all kinds of impossible rules that we need to follow.

Yet being human . . .
inevitably we find ourselves unable to stick with those rules,
and the weight starts creeping back on ...

we start feeling miserable and blaming ourselves...

thinking we just need more willpower...

so we eat to feel better...

and then in our desperation,
we set even more restrictive rules to try to get the scale back down.

Which are impossible to stick to ...

So we feel even worse...

and try to make ourselves feel better by eating...

We think that food is the problem.

It’s not!

Food is just a symptom.

It's not your fault -
the diet industry makes billions by
keeping you focused on the symptom!

But unless you address the root cause
you will be stuck in this cycle for good.

If you want results that last
you need to be willing to go a whole lot deeper
than just thinking about what's on your plate.

Would love to hear your thoughts upon reading this

In your opinion, what makes people fail at their weight loss goals?

The majority of women I work with
have dabbled with diets on and off their whole life
yet still don't have the body they want.

Diets that are common include:
Intermittent Fasting
Keto
Weight Watchers
Paleo
Optavia
Whole 30
Noom
Juice Plus
Atkins
this is just a few . . .

Honestly, the only diet that's going to work for you
is the diet you create for yourself,
is uniquely your own and fits within YOUR lifestyle and genetics
because we are all different
and need different things

It doesn't have a name, it's just YOUR nutrition plan
It's simple, but it's not easy.

And that's where having a coach
to help you figure it out
is the only way you're gonna stop adding more diets
to the crazy list above.

DM me if you're ready to quit yoyo dieting forever and are ready to really start living FREE.
