My Favorite core exercise for women over 40:

Ask me for my favorite core exercise lately and I’ll tell you “dead bugs” or "bird dogs".

Why? Because “they build strength without stressing the lower back, plus as a coach, there are so many ways to make it more or less challenging for my clients”.

PLUS, tbh… “I kind of enjoy watching the expression on my clients’ faces when they try to get the coordination of the movement down”. 🙃

What’s your fave type “core” exercise? Let me know in the comments!

Ever find yourself halfway into a bag of chips or pint of ice cream and suddenly think: “Wait… what am I even doing right now?”

It’s like you go into autopilot:
→ Open pantry
→ Scan shelves
→ Snack… even if you’re not actually hungry 😬

And then comes the guilt.
“I was doing so well…
“Why can’t I control this?”
“Ugh this always happens.”

Well here’s what you need to know:
Cravings are a MESSAGE from your body…

And when you know how to listen, everything gets easier.

That’s why I made “The Cravings Decoder”... a free guide for busy women over 40, that shows you what your cravings are actually trying to tell you (and how to respond without spiraling).

Inside you’ll find:
✅ What cravings like sugar, salt, wine, and carbs might really mean
✅ A 3-step response you can use in real life
✅ A cravings tracker to help you spot patterns (and finally feel in control again)

Ready to figure out what your cravings mean?

Cravings can feel random, but often, they’re just your body trying to send you a message (especially if you’re a woman over her 40s going through hormonal changes”).

Your body might need energy, a more balanced snack, or just a moment to chill out.

That’s exactly what The Cravings Decoder will help you figure out…

Save this post to come back to when cravings strike, and DM me “CRAVINGS” if you want the full printable guide.

If you’re a busy woman… these swaps are for you 👇

Here’s why they’re worth it 👌

✅ Sourdough or Sprouted Grain Bread are great choices because they’re easier to digest, lower in gluten, supports gut health, and helps stabilize blood sugar.
✅ Grilled or Baked Proteins lower your intake of inflammatory oils, plus those cooking methods help preserve nutrients.
✅ Infused Water and Herbal Tea help you stay hydrated without added sugars.
✅ Nuts and Seeds are snacks that support your immune system (just be sure to watch your portion sizes).
✅ A Square of Dark Chocolate (70%+ Cocoa) satisfies your sweet cravings and delivers a healthy dose of antioxidants.)

Which swap are you trying first? Drop a comment and let me know!
