  • 143: Midlife Mentality Makeover with Janis R. Cohen
    2024/11/01

    We’ve all been there. Someone says something we think is a little off the wall and we become triggered. We stew in our emotions, we want to run away from the situation, and we want to shove that feeling as far back down as we can. But what if instead of ignoring what we’re feeling, we do something different instead?

    As we enter midlife, so many things are changing – career transitions, being in the “sandwich” generation of taking care of kids and aging parents, and yes, even menopause, all while trying to figure out who we really are. This transition can be scary and exhilarating all at the same time. You're in luck, because today on Your Midlife Comeback Story, we have the Intuitive Therapist herself, Janis Cohen.

    Janis is here to answer the question… what exactly is a midlife makeover?


    Together, we will unpack:

    • What exactly is a midlife makeover?
    • What is it about midlife that is to be celebrated?
    • How can you get to a point of curiosity over conviction, when it comes to being triggered?
    • Is there one change in midlife that really affects us more than others?
    • How is an intuitive therapist different from a traditional therapist?
    • What is the number one rule to break in midlife?



    Janis Cohen is a therapeutic coach who helps women in midlife, uncover their true authentic self so they can reignite their passion, purpose, and personal power. Janis is the author of The Intuitive Therapist, Podcast host of The Intuitive Therapist Podcast, therapist of 32 years, clairvoyant, empath, and psychic medium who went from having no clue about who she truly was to understanding her purpose and truth clearly by the age of 52. Janis has helped thousands of women uncover THEIR authentic truth and has taught them how to live unapologetically and stand in their power.

  • 142: The Surprising Link Between Household Toxins and Weight Gain
    2024/10/25

    Did you know that you could be exposed to 168 chemicals before your first cup of coffee in the morning? And did you know these invisible chemicals are wreaking havoc on your hormones and causing weight gain? These chemicals are called endocrine disruptors, and they’re everywhere—BPA in plastics, phthalates in cosmetics, parabens in lotions, and even microplastics in our environment. What’s worse is that these disruptors don't just mess with your hormones and your weight—they affect your stress levels, your sleep, and even increase your risk of chronic diseases.

    But here’s the kicker. This isn’t just negatively affecting you. If you have a spouse, kids, or pets, you’re going to want to listen extra closely to this episode.

    In today’s episode of Your Midlife Comeback Story, we’re going to answer the question… why should you ever want to lessen the toxin load in your home, and what are some easy steps to get started?


    Together, we will unpack:

    • Assess the fear-mongering online. Is it true, or are these people just crazy?
    • Identify specific chemicals and why you should be concerned about each one.
    • Take you on a step-by-step strategy with the easiest swaps you can do first.
    • Give you a one-stop resource that you can grab for yourself today so that you don’t have to take notes and remember everything from this episode - you’ll have your very own cheat sheet to get started.

  • 141: Pelvic Floor Dysfunction in Midlife with Erica Ziel
    2024/10/18

    We used to laugh at our mothers when they’d sneeze and pee their pants. I mean, who does that?! Turns out, the jokes on us. So we’re told, if you don’t want to pee your pants, do your kegels. But is that advice helpful, or harmful?

    As we age into our 40’s, 50’s, and beyond, incontinence is one of those annoying things that we seem to accept as a normal part of aging and then laugh about. But contrary to popular belief, you don’t have to suffer.

    On today’s episode of Your Midlife Comeback Story, we’ll answer the question… how does your pelvic floor affect your bladder health, and how does it impact the other functions of your body?

    Together, we will unpack:

    • How does your pelvic floor not just affect your bladder health, but many other functions of your body, as well?
    • What exactly is your pelvic floor?
    • What are the symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction?
    • Are Kegels helpful or harmful?
    • What are some simple exercises you can do to improve the health of your pelvic floor?

Her mission is to help clients heal their body through movement, breathwork, mindset, and detoxification.

  • 139: Holly Bertone Opens Up About the Fear of Breast Cancer Recurrence
    2024/10/04

    It’s bad enough to be afraid of getting breast cancer. But if you are diagnosed, what they don’t tell you is the number one side effect is the fear of recurrence. You are always going to be looking behind your shoulder to see if it’s following you. It’s the monster under the bed that no one wants to talk about.

    In honor of breast cancer awareness month, I have a special treat for you today on the show. The other week, I spoke to a group of survivors about the fear of recurrence and the 5 steps they can take to not just empower themselves so they don’t live in fear, but to actually minimize the risk. We were able to tape the speech, and that is what you are going to listen to today. You’re going to laugh, and get a little Hollitude, but all in the name of love. Because as a 14-year survivor, the information you’re going to hear today is not just for survivors, it’s for any woman who wants to reduce her risk of developing this disease. This is the episode you are going to want to share with your mother, daughter, sister, and friend.

  • 138: What is Perimenopause? with Dr. Mariza Snyder
    2024/09/27

    As we enter midlife, many of us have perimenopause on our minds, but very few know what to actually look for. Yes, it’s skipping periods, hot flashes, and night sweats, but what about everything else? How are you supposed to know if you’re in perimenopause or if it’s something more serious? And what about mood swings, emotional rollercoasters, and brain fog? Is this just a normal part of getting older?

    On today’s episode of Your Midlife Comeback Story, we’ll answer the question… how do you know when you’re shifting into perimenopause, and what steps do you need to take to ensure a smoother transition?

    To really tackle this topic head-on, Dr. Mariza Snyder will join us and offer up expert advice, as we dive headfirst into the nitty gritty of the beginning stages of “the great change”.

    Together, we will unpack:

    • How can you identify when you’re shifting into perimenopause and what steps can you take to ensure a smoother transition?
    • What are the different stages of perimenopause and are there any tests to confirm our suspicions?
    • What can we do to avoid or tackle weight gain in midlife?
    • Why is building and maintaining muscle mass during perimenopause so important?
    • What are “exercise snacks” and how can we incorporate them throughout our day?

    Dr. Mariza Snyder is a functional practitioner, perimenopause and menopause expert and the author of eight books: The newest book, The Essential Oils Menopause Solution, focuses on solutions for women in perimenopause and menopause.

    She has been featured on Dr. Oz, Oprah Magazine, Fox News Health, MindBodyGreen and many publications. Dr. Mariza is also the host of the top-rated Energized Podcast, (with over 11 million downloads) designed to empower women to become the CEO of their health.

  • 137: Is it REALLY a Midlife Crisis? with Laurie Reynoldson
    2024/09/20

    Two words: midlife crisis. You know you’ve thought about it before. You see that family member or friend completely change out of nowhere and you wonder what in the world happened to make them completely flip their life upside down. Maybe they left a career they’ve had for 20 years, they bought a fancy sports car, or even (gasp) got a divorce.

    But what if I told you that not all midlife changes are a crisis and that extreme, and for many women, it’s more of an awakening?

    In this episode of Your Midlife Comeback Story, we are going to answer the question… what are the top 3 things we need to learn in the school of midlife?

    To help us answer that, we've got the school of midlife expert herself, Laurie Reynoldson. Laurie was a lawyer on the brink of making partner at a large law firm and walked away from everything she had ever worked for.


    Together, we will unpack:

    • What are the top 3 things we need to know to succeed in the school of midlife?
    • How do you define success and how can that definition change over the years?
    • What does the success playbook look like when we finally focus on ourselves?
    • What is the best strategy for creating boundaries and sticking to them?
    • How do you handle the negative comments and push-back during your midlife transformation?


    After an award-winning 20-year career as an attorney, Laurie left the law when she was on the verge of joining the partnership at a large super-regional firm, the job she’d worked her entire career to land. She knows exactly what it feels like to have everything you’ve ever thought you always wanted in life, but still feel like something is missing. Which is why she’s made it her mission to provide women with the tools, information, support and community to thrive in midlife…and skip the midlife crisis.

  • 136: Uncover Your Covert Weight Loss Block Using FBI-Inspired Tactics
    2024/09/13

    If you’re a woman in midlife and you’re struggling with your weight, you’ve probably tried different diets and nutrition and exercise without a lot of progress. This is very common. And it’s common because the 92% of diets that fail are missing one big piece. They don’t take into consideration the hidden weight loss block that is specific to your personality. I want to break this down for you today, because that covert blind spot is your number one weight loss block.

    In this episode of Your Midlife Comeback Story, we’re going to answer the question… how do you identify your covert weight loss block?

    If you’re interested in learning more about how to do this with the same FBI-inspired tactics that I used when I was in counterintelligence, then this episode is for you.

    At the end, you’ll also learn what to do next, because once it’s no longer hidden, it’s much easier to create your game plan.


    Together, we will unpack:

    • How do you identify your covert weight loss block?
    • How does the FBI's Model / Conscious Competence Model relate to weight loss?
    • How can you achieve sustainable weight loss even though the industry expects you to fail?
    • Why traditional weight loss methods don't work, and what you can do instead to achieve success.
