How to Stop Stress & Emotional Eating in Perimenopause and Beyond

This week's conversation is all about emotional freedom, healing beyond the surface, and reclaiming your power as a woman. My guest, Leyna LivesFree, is a bodyworker, shamanic healer, and mama who rebuilt her health, energy, and identity from the ground up. After facing autoimmune disease, divorce, and burnout, she found freedom through deep emotional work and body connection and now helps other women do the same! If you've been craving deeper transformation - the kind that doesn't just change your body, but your entire energy - this conversation will hit home. You've been running on empty long enough.

Behind the scenes of Day 4 of the Healthy & Hot Reset! In this episode, I'm diving into one of the biggest midlife struggles women face - nutrition.

Money, mindset, and midlife awakenings - we're going there today. In this episode of Boss Bitch Radio, I sit down with financial expert, author, and coach Lisa Chastain, who's on a mission to help women transform their relationship with money. Lisa opens up about growing up in a blue-collar family in Las Vegas, following the "perfect life script," and realizing in her 30s that she was living a life that wasn't truly hers. From breaking free of a loveless marriage to building her own business helping women find financial freedom - her story is real, raw, and relatable. Don't miss this! Lisa is leading a powerful event on October 9th that's part of a national movement for women ready to rise.  #MoneyMindset #FinancialFreedom #WomenEmpowerment    Key Takeaways: 00:00 Kicking things off: Money & self-investment 00:27 Welcome back to Boss Bitch Radio 01:07 Meet today's guest - Lisa Chastain 02:43 Lisa's story: from blue-collar roots to financial expert 04:01 Breaking free from money struggles 05:51 Letting go of self-limiting beliefs 14:04 Why investing in yourself matters 16:30 It's never too late to change your money story 17:08 Facing fears and owning your success 17:53 Rethinking money: a renewable resource 18:38 How mindset shapes your financial reality 18:54 Using NLP to break negative money patterns 20:18 Building confidence, worthiness, and wealth 25:55 Real-world tips for managing your money 29:17 Empowering women & leading with purpose 30:30 Lisa's upcoming event + final thoughts Links Mentioned:  Follow Lisa on Instagram: @lisachastain4 https://www.instagram.com/savvymoneywithlisa/?hl=en Grab her new book "Stop Budgeting, Start Living" Check out her website: https://lisachastain.com/ Tune in to her podcast: https://lisachastain.com/podcast/ Join us in the Healthy and Hot Method!

In this episode of Boss Bitch Radio, we're talking about the real stuff women face in midlife when it comes to health and fitness - the perfectionism that keeps you stuck, feeling like everyone's watching you at the gym, managing stress without burning out, and what to do when your partner just doesn't seem to support your goals. If you've ever felt like you have to "do it all" or that you're failing if it's not perfect, this one's for you. We're breaking down why perfectionism isn't your personality - it's a learned coping skill and how to finally loosen that grip so you can actually make progress and feel good doing it. In this episode, we dive into: Perfectionism & unrealistic expectations Gym intimidation & building confidence Self-compassion & stress management Partners not on board with your goals Grab your coffee, get comfy, and let's get real about what it actually takes to stay consistent, confident, and sane while working on your goals in midlife. ✨Ready to join us inside the Healthy & Hot Method?
