Optimize Your Energy and Health at Any Age with Natalie Jill

In this episode, I reconnect with my friend, fitness expert, and midlife wellness coach, Natalie Jill. The last time we had a conversation on the show was eight years ago, and a lot has changed since then. Natalie has not only evolved her brand, but she has completely transformed the way she approaches health, aging, performance, and mindset. This is a powerful and honest conversation about what it really means to live a healthy life at any age, especially through midlife.

Natalie shares how she shifted from being known for general fitness and fat loss to becoming a leading voice in midlife wellness, hormone health, and aging with intention. We talk about what sparked that transition, how she redefined her mission, and why being deeply interested in your work is the key to any sustainable transformation. She opens up about navigating the overwhelming amount of information in the health space, and how midlife can be a confusing season where symptoms change, metabolism shifts, and the old tools don't always work anymore.

We dive into biohacking, natural wellness, supplements, and the role of personalized nutrition. Natalie explains why you have to become your own health detective and why cookie-cutter fitness programs often fail women and men navigating midlife. We also get into the complexities of hormone replacement therapy, how to think through GLP-1 medications, and why sleep might be the most underrated performance enhancer of all.

One of the things I've always admired about Natalie is her ability to evolve and reinvent herself without losing authenticity. We discuss the pressure of showing up online, the struggle to post consistently, controversial content, and how to stay aligned with your mission even when the internet has its own opinions.

This is an empowering, honest, and deeply practical conversation for anyone looking to take ownership of their health, find passion in their work again, and embrace midlife with clarity and confidence.
