Most women don’t fail because they’re doing the wrong things — they fail because they don’t do them long enough. In this episode, Michelle dives into why excitement and willpower fade after the first two weeks, why that’s completely normal, and how to keep going long enough to actually get results.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Why the first two weeks feel exciting (and why that excitement doesn’t last).
• The real reason most people don’t see results.
• How to reframe your timeline so you stop giving up too soon.
• A simple analogy that will forever change the way you think about consistency.
• An invitation to give yourself the time you need in the final Midlife Magic Membership of 2025.

PJ Glassey— with a degree in exercise science, creator of the X Gym, and author of Cracking Your Calorie Code — joins Michelle on the Midlife Magic Podcast to talk about the three pillars of thriving in midlife: the brain, movement, and community. PJ explains his 21-minute training method, his 16-type brain test and “brain training” techniques that make habits stick, and why treating your body like a personal experiment is the fastest route to sustainable results. We also dig into practical, compassionate ways women can navigate perimenopause and menopause (nutrition experiments, strength work, and identity-based mindset shifts), plus PJ’s take on visualization, longevity, and how the right story about aging rewires your life.

Listen for:

• PJ’s time-saving strength method that gets results in 21 minutes.
• How identifying your brain type speeds progress and prevents yo-yo changes.
• Honest, actionable tips for women in perimenopause/menopause: exercise, nutrition experiments, and relationship support.
• A mindset practice you can do daily (2–3 minutes) that helps you become the person who sustains healthy habits.

In this episode of the Midlife Magic Podcast, Michelle opens up about her personal journey of losing 20 pounds—without restriction, endless cardio, or dieting rules.

She shares the myths she believed for decades (that weight loss required giving things up, or that you had to sweat buckets for it to “count”) and how shifting her mindset around strength training, protein, and nutrition awareness completely changed her life.

You’ll hear the exact steps she took starting in August 2023 that led her to feel stronger than ever, develop visible muscle definition, and finally build habits that feel sustainable for life.

If you’ve been stuck in the diet cycle and want to know what actually works for midlife women, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
