What if the "facts" you've accepted about your body — the weight gain after your hysterectomy, the genetics you inherited, the symptoms you've chalked up to menopause — aren't facts at all?

Licensed Master Sports Nutritionist @nataliejillfitness joins Dr. Stephanie Estima to break down the belief system quietly running in the background of most midlife women, and how to start dismantling it. Natalie shares her own list: a father who died at 49, obesity and heart disease in the family, two autoimmune conditions, and 14 surgeries — and why none of it gets to be her story. Plus: is midlife weight gain actually inevitable, or is that the biggest FAT of all?
