About this episode

Natalie Jill discusses effective fitness strategies for women over 40 who struggle with weight management despite traditional methods.

You followed the plan. You cut the food. You did the cardio. And somehow, midlife hit, and everything stopped working — and you blamed yourself. Natalie Jill is here to dismantle the strategies that were quietly working against you, and rebuild from the ground up with what actually moves the needle after 40.
