Fitness in Menopause

Fitness in Menopause You may think menopause sucks, and that you have to accept it. I get it, but you’re wrong. I’m excited to tell you why.

The role of fitness in menopause is my expertise. My goal is to share what I have learned through years of education/experience

Optimize has become the golden ticket for fear-based selling. It sounds scientific. Precise. Evidence-based. That's exactly why it works so well in a headline. The wellness industry is a multi-trillion dollar industry. That's a lot of dollars chasing a lot of attention, and attention responds to fear a lot faster than it responds to nuance. Aren't you tired of being taken advantage of?
What doesn't make as much money and not as good of a headline are the basics and yet, they always work. So why is it so difficult to be consistent with the basics instead of being busy chasing the next expensive (both money and mental) trend? What are your thoughts on this?

From joy… to obsession… to finding my way back.
For a long time, I thought movement had to be about control, discipline, and changing my body. But life, and a painful turning point, taught me something deeper: movement is meant to support us joyfully, not stress us out and punish us.

Now, I’m learning to choose:
✔Curiosity over Control,
✔Compassion over Comparison,
✔Adventure over Perfection.

If you’ve ever struggled to find a healthier relationship with movement, you’re not alone. I talk about my journey in my latest episode of New Moves in your Ear. Follow me on Substack to get all the goodies. 🔗 in bio

I created the New Moves in Menopause Club as a place to learn, laugh, chat, and share. To be among women who are on the same crazy, sometimes dizzying, but also fun ride called midlife.
No judgment and no pretending any of us have this fully figured out, because nobody does, and, in my opinion, that's part of what makes it fun. This is about having real conversations, real support, and women who get it without you having to explain yourself first.
Come join me. Our live community calls will start in August but the fun has already begun. See the link in bio and join us.

is someone whose writing I genuinely admire. In fact, my daughter loves her writing too, because she wrote 'Ginger Mancino, Kid Comedian,' a book we read together in the evening, laughing out loud. Wendi is hilarious and brilliant. So when she took the time to read my book and called me "a bright light to follow during what can be a tough time for a lot of women," I got a bit teary-eyed. 🥹 Gratitude doesn't even cover it.

I also dare to say that this review isn't really about me. It's about you.
✔The woman who deserves to feel like herself again. Not some dimmed-down, white-knuckling-through-it version of herself.
✔ The woman who deserves joy. Not just survival.
✔ The woman who deserves to feel free in her own body, on her own terms.

That's why I wrote New Moves in Menopause. Not to hand you a list of things to endure, but to give you tools to figure out what works for your life now. Tools that can adapt to your life, tools that you can use whenever things change to create a new map. Tools to help you come back to yourself.

Get your copy of New Moves in Menopause, and share your map with me, please. I'd love to see it. Tag a friend who you think can use a fun guide through this roller coaster.

"This book normalizes menopause, helping women understand they're not falling apart, they are experiencing a natural biological phase of life."
— Meredith Walker, co-founder Amy Poehler's Smart Girls and author of 'Be Yourself - And Other Bad Advice' (I highly recommend this book!!) ✨

My book, New Moves in Menopause, offers you tools to engage with midlife as a time of freedom, rather than a collection of symptoms. AND reminds you that you can do all that while having fun and talking kindly to yourself along the way. Because you deserve it.

"Maria has a rare gift for turning what feels like a challenge into an adventure — and this book captures that magic perfectly."
— Halle Berry

This is exactly the thing I've dedicated my life to helping women feel.

Midlife isn't a problem to manage. It's a route to map for the adventure you want to go on. My book, New Moves in Menopause, is the guide that helps you do exactly that: with explorations you will want to do, refreshing honesty, and (I promise) way more fun than you're expecting.

Here are the three things I keep coming back to, no matter what's going on.

☀️ Finding joy in simplicity. The "boring" stuff. Not clickbaity, won't go viral, absolutely works every time.

👩🏿‍🤝‍👩🏽 Focusing on connection. Community, community, community. Find your people. Show up for them. That's it.

😊 Finding the inner smile. You'll know it when you feel it. That quiet spark that takes over before you even realize it's there. Like a song that makes you move no matter what mood you're in.

What are your non-negotiables?
