How to Create Healthy and Sustainable Eating Habits

Well & Worthy Life | A Podcast for Midlife Women

Episode Overview

Melanie is your girl if you want to know how to create healthy and sustainable eating habits! She has taught me many tips and tricks over the years on making quick and easy nutrient-dense meals which is why we created Balance Eating Method. We discovered too many women struggle to get the nourishment they need to live energized and whole from the inside out. In this episode, we invite each listener to join the conversation as we, two best friends, chat about our health journeys and share why we do what we do for women coming up after us.

Questions Answered

• Why does alcohol affect us differently as we get older?

Key Moments in the Conversation

[2:34] Every time I'm on the phone with you, I leave better. I've learned something. I've been encouraged. Maybe you're doing something that I was slacking on, like going on a daily walk, and Deanna's walking and talking and I think, “you know what? I need to move today because Deanna is my encourager.”

[3:51] What I do is try to be better this year as opposed to last year. What can I let go of that didn't serve me in 2022?

[12:38] We were talking on our Zoom call about community and how important community is with like-minded women, and that's exactly why we created the Balance Wellness Method, Balance Eating Method, and Balance Movement Method because there aren’t any programs out there for women our age.

[15:22] I can tell you I feel better now in my fifties probably as good as I felt in my twenties, if not better.

[32:02] Start learning to say no more. You can make time to better yourself, you just have to learn to say no to the things that are not the best for you.
