Welcome to Empower Your Menopause, the podcast where we bust myths, share strategies, and empower women to thrive in this next phase of life. It’s James and Juli here, and today we’re diving into a topic that has affected all of us at one point or another.
Ever felt like you’re either crushing life or totally failing at it — no middle ground? Like, if you don’t have time for a 60-minute workout, why bother moving at all? Or you had one cookie and it ‘ruined’ your diet, so you might as well call it a cheat week?
Sound familiar? Welcome to the All-or-Nothing Club — population: way too many of us. But here’s the good news—you can escape it, and it starts with something we call PMA. Thats’s not Positive Mental Attitude, it’s Positive Messy Action.
PMA is all about ditching perfection and embracing tiny, imperfect steps forward — because spoiler alert: motivation doesn’t come first, action does. And those baby steps? They’re where the magic happens.
So, settle in for this episode of Empower Your Menopause, where we’ll unpack why all-or-nothing thinking gets you nowhere at this phase in your life, how to embrace progress over perfection, and why messy action beats no action every time. Let’s do this!
