GLP-1's in Midlife- an Interview with Casey Peterson, Nurse Practitioner
GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy have changed the conversation around weight loss, especially in midlife. But what should women know about their benefits, risks, and effects on muscle, metabolism, and overall health?
In this episode, Karin and Debi talk with nurse practitioner Casey Peterson about GLP-1 medications, menopause, and midlife weight management. We explore what these medications can and cannot do, the importance of preserving muscle and strength, and how to make informed decisions about your health and well-being during midlife.

How Much Protein Do We Really Need in Midlife?
Protein is having a major moment, but how much do you actually need, especially as you enter midlife?
In this episode of Fit for Midlife, we are breaking down the truth about protein and why it becomes increasingly important as we age. We will talk about how protein supports muscle strength, metabolism, bone health, energy, and healthy aging, and why simply eating more protein is not necessarily the whole answer.
We will also explore how much protein women in midlife may need, the best ways to incorporate it into your day, and some simple strategies for making protein a bigger part of your meals without overcomplicating nutrition.
If you are over 40 and want to protect your muscle, support your metabolism, and feel stronger in your body, this episode is for you.

Mini-Episode: Can You Be Strong Without Pushing Harder
What if getting stronger in midlife isn’t always about doing more, pushing harder, or proving what your body can handle?
In this episode of Fit for Midlife, Karin and Debi talk about how the way we approach movement, exercise, stress, and even our own expectations can either support our bodies or leave us feeling depleted.
Sometimes strength looks like lifting heavier. Sometimes it looks like slowing down, listening to your body, taking a rest day, or choosing a different approach.
We’ll explore what happens when we stop treating our bodies like something that needs to be pushed into submission and start paying attention to what they’re actually telling us.
Because maybe becoming stronger isn’t about pushing harder.
Maybe it’s about learning when to push, when to pause, and when to trust yourself.
