  • Your Beautiful Aging Body With Special Guest Lisa Austin

    Your Beautiful Aging Body With Special Guest Lisa Austin
    Jun 26 2023
    For The Health Of It with Juli Madacey  Have you ever looked in the mirror and wondered, “Who is that woman staring back at me?!” If so, welcome to mid-life! To paraphrase the immortal Bette Davis, "Aging ain't for sissies!" It’s a time of life that gets a bad rap because of the many changes a woman’s body and mind go through, and the stigma that still goes along with it. And it’s all made worse by the conflicting information you read in the mainstream media. Once you add in all the social media pressure, and images of products and programs showing women over 40 sporting 6-pack abs and promises that you can achieve the same results with virtually no effort, it’s no wonder you stand and stare and wonder what the heck is happening. In this episode of For The Health of It, you’ll enjoy some real talk about what happens during the transitional years of perimenopause and postmenopause, what is normal, and what an aging body is supposed to look like (spoiler alert - it might not be what you think). Master Health Coach & Holistic Health Practitioner Juli Madacey is joined in this episode by special guest, Women’s Coaching Specialist Lisa Austin. These two coaches are on a mission to empower women over 40 to embrace their bodies, kick midlife in the ass, and reclaim their vitality. In this engaging conversation, they’ll help you better understand what happens with your body during these transitional years, and they’ll provide you with simple, effective strategies to help you navigate the uncharted waters of perimenopause and menopause with purpose, humour and self-compassion. Lisa Austin is a women’s coaching specialist and health advocate, dedicated to helping women embrace the beauty of aging during the transformative phase of menopause. With a background in coaching and over 10 years of experience in the health and fitness industry, Lisa empowers women to love themselves and their reflections. Having personally experienced the challenges of hormonal shifts and symptoms during her own menopausal journey, Lisa aims to normalize women’s experiences and provide support during this important stage of life. Lisa’s unique perspective comes from her recent ADHD diagnosis, which was magnified by the decline in estrogen. Sharing her insights, she helps women navigate the transition with greater ease. Her mission is to inspire women to celebrate who they are now and find happiness by embracing their current stage of life. Lisa believes that every woman is wonderful and deserving of self-acceptance. https://www.buildabodyyoulove.com/ ~ More About For The Health Of It with Juli Madacey ~  Juli Madacey is a Certified Holistic Health Practitioner, Master Health Coach, and Certified Personal Trainer who is on a mission to help women feel great in their bodies.

    What The Heck Is Health Coaching? – Juli Madacey
    Jun 5 2023
    For The Health Of It with Juli Madacey  Have you ever heard the saying, “You don’t know what you don’t know?” There’s a good reason it exists. We walk around with certain beliefs about what it means to live a healthy life, but how do we know they’re really true? There are many different dimensions of health, but unfortunately, when people think about healthy living most of the focus is on diet and exercise, and we completely miss other areas that are crucial for developing deep health. Health Coaching is the best way to expand your understanding of what deep health really is for YOU, and reach the health-related goals you’re after. Health coaching is a way to get support from an expert who will take an integrated and holistic approach to making meaningful changes and improvements to your life. A health coach looks at you as a whole person and considers all the different aspects of your life, so you can take your journey to deep health well beyond diet and exercise. Join Master Health Coach & Holistic Health Practitioner Juli Madacey this week while she shares what health coaching is and what health coaching isn’t, and hear some fun stories about how cycling adventures and other life experiences illustrate why health coaching might be just what you need.   https://www.buildabodyyoulove.com/ ~ More About For The Health Of It with Juli Madacey ~  Juli Madacey is a Certified Holistic Health Practitioner, Master Health Coach, and Certified Personal Trainer who is on a mission to help women feel great in their bodies.

    Mirror, Mirror, On The Wall…Got Self-Worth? – Juli Madacey
    May 29 2023
    For The Health Of It with Juli Madacey  Every advertisement you see regarding a diet or fitness product is telling you that there is something wrong with you, and only THIS thing is going to fix it. You buy into the belief that IF I lose those 10 pounds, THEN I’ll be happy. So you do this program and try that product, and keep failing, over and over, assuming that YOU are the failure and there is something wrong with you. The whole idea that “I’ll be happy when…” is keeping you stuck, unhappy, and supporting a $78 BILLION diet industry. But what you see when you look in the mirror can have a far more profound impact on your ability to get healthy than you realize. Your sense of self-worth is what determines whether you can create - and maintain - the healthy body and life that you are seeking. It’s what drives every action you take. Fortunately, there is a surprisingly simple way that your mirror can help you improve your self-worth so you can build a body you love living in. Sceptical? Then you won’t want to miss this episode! Join Juli Madacey, Master Health Coach & Holistic Health Practitioner as she shows you how self-worth is the cornerstone for creating the body and life you want, and how you can start building yours today. https://www.buildabodyyoulove.com/ ~ More About For The Health Of It with Juli Madacey ~  Juli Madacey is a Certified Holistic Health Practitioner, Master Health Coach, and Certified Personal Trainer who is on a mission to help women feel great in their bodies.

  • What Is A Healthy Body Anyway? – Juli Madacey

    What Is A Healthy Body Anyway? – Juli Madacey
    May 15 2023
    For The Health Of It with Juli Madacey What is a healthy body, anyway? You see all sorts of images and ads telling you what a healthy body “should” look like, but most of what you see on social media and in advertisements isn’t even remotely close to what a healthy body actually is. There’s a lot more to it than you may think. Did you know that many social media influencers, personal trainers, fitness models, and physique competitors are not only unhealthy, but many of them also deal with disordered eating? And the “Body Positivity Movement” may be leading many people down the wrong path. The human body is an extremely complex organism. While it’s partly true that “you are what you eat,” and getting enough exercise is an important factor in a healthy lifestyle, there are other things that can affect your health in more subtle but very important ways. In this episode, Christine McIver, CEO of Inspired Choices Network will be talking with Juli Madacey, Master Health Coach and Holistic Health Practitioner, host of For The Health Of It, about what a healthy body really looks like, and what you can do to get closer to making a healthy body a reality for yourself.   ~ More About For The Health Of It with Juli Madacey ~  Juli Madacey is a Certified Holistic Health Practitioner, Master Health Coach, and Certified Personal Trainer who is on a mission to help women feel great in their bodies.
