| HSOS #7: Quieting “Food Noise”: What GLP-1s Turn Down—and What You Must Turn Up | 11 sept. 2025 | 00:22:05 | |
GLP-1s might be the hottest topic in health right now, with names like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro splashed across the headlines. But what do they actually do—and what should you know before considering them? In this episode, I break it down in real-talk style, with simple analogies (think thermostats and traffic cops) to explain how these meds quiet food noise, steady blood sugar, and in some cases, deliver big weight loss results. We’ll talk about the wins, the “watch-outs,” and why your muscle and metabolism deserve center stage if you’re on one of these medications. I’ll also share my concerns about what happens after you stop and how to protect yourself from the “then what?” problem. Most of all, I want you to walk away informed, confident, and ready to have better conversations with your doctor—not overwhelmed by science speak. Let’s talk.

It’s about building real strength—physical, emotional, and hormonal. Each week, I’ll share straight-talking nutrition tips, sustainable fitness strategies, and conversations that help you feel powerful in your skin once again.

| HSOS #1: The Two Most Important Midlife Health Habits | 29 juil. 2025 | 00:19:20 | |
In this episode of Her Season of Strength, Kim Duffy breaks down the two biggest midlife health game changers: protein and strength training. She shares how both transformed her life in her 40s, despite being a dietitian for over 30 years, and how these habits can boost metabolism, energy, and confidence for women navigating perimenopause and beyond. This is a practical, powerful starting point for anyone ready to age with more strength and less frustration. Let’s talk.

Each week, I’ll share straight-talking nutrition tips, sustainable fitness strategies, and conversations that help you feel powerful in your skin once again. Menopause is not an ending, it is only the beginning. This is your season of strength. In this episode, here are the 7 key takeaways: 1. Protein and strength training are the two biggest game changers for women over 40 to improve how they feel, move, and age. 2. After 40, women naturally lose muscle mass, which slows metabolism and increases body fat—especially without intentional action. 3. Protein is non-negotiable because it supports muscle, metabolism, blood sugar balance, hormone health, and bone strength. 4. A “protein-first” mindset helps build balanced meals that reduce cravings, improve energy, and support hormone function. 5. Strength training is essential to preserve muscle, protect bones, and boost functional strength and confidence. 6. Start simple: 2–3 full-body sessions per week, using bodyweight, bands, or dumbbells—no gym required. 7. Progress over perfection is the goal—tiny daily shifts in protein and movement can lead to powerful long-term transformation.
