The Elise Tzurkov Podcast

Thanksgiving does not have to become the reason you lose momentum. If you are trying to lose weight or maintain it through the holidays, in this episode I break down the exactmindset shift that keeps one celebratory meal from turning into a full reset. This episode is about how to enjoy the food, thefamily, and the fun without waking up feeling miserable, guilty, or off track. I share the rule that changes everything and I walk you through how to approach holiday eating based on where you actually are in your journey.
 
If you have a holiday, birthday, trip, or big family event coming up, this is the reset you need. Perfect for women in perimenopause or menopause, or anyone who wants to get through the holidays without undoing their progress.

The advice women hear about weight loss in midlife is missing the real problem - it is not just about food, it is about why you keep reaching for the chips, skipping the gym, and calling it "self-sabotage." In this episode I sit down with Coach France, one of the amazing coaches behind the scenes at FFWE, for a brutally honest conversation about the hidden patterns that keep high-functioning women stuck. France shares how her background in social work, counselling, and crisis interventionshaped the way she coaches women now, and why losing her mother to cancer made health, self-respect, and early intervention deeply personal. Together, they pull back the curtain on the mindset work that actually changes behavior -especially when life gets chaotic, your nervous system is fried, and willpower is nowhere to be found. 
 
If you have ever said, "I know what to do, I just can't make myself do it," this conversation will hit home. It is especially powerful for women in midlife who want better health, more confidence, and a way out of the cycle that keeps them starting over.

Most women in perimenopause are working harder in the gymand getting worse results. In this episode, I break down why exercise alone is not the fat-loss lever you think it is - and what actually has to change if you want a leaner, stronger, more energized body in midlife. If you have ever felt frustrated that you train constantly, eat “pretty well,” and still don’t love what you see in the mirror, this episode will feel uncomfortably familiar. I explain why cardio belongs in your routine for heart health, why strength training matters for building shape, and why neither one can outmuscle poor sleep, high stress, and a nutrition strategy that quietly adds up over time.  This episode is for any woman who is tired of spinning her wheels, doing more and more, and seeing less and less. If you want a clearer roadmap for where fat loss actually comes from in midlife, and what to focus on instead of brute-force workouts, this conversation will help you reset fast.
