76: The Midlife Performance Shift
Menopause at work is about much more than hot flashes. For many women, perimenopause and menopause can bring changes in sleep, energy, brain fog, concentration, mood, recovery and physical comfort- right as they’re stepping into some of the most demanding years of their careers. In this episode, Heather Yancey explores how menopause can show up in workplace performance and leadership, including her own experience managing severe challenges in perimenopause while trying to do her job. We’ll talk about what high-performing women can do to support their health, strength and energy, and what HR leaders, employers and women’s ERGs can do to create better workplace support without lowering the performance bar. Because women’s health and workplace performance are not separate conversations. Topics include: menopause at work, perimenopause, women in leadership, brain fog, fatigue, sleep, strength training, recovery, workplace wellness, women’s health, HR and women’s ERGs.

73: Tight Pants Might Be Good: Why Fitter Doesn’t Mean Smaller After 40
Fitter does not have to mean smaller and if your pants are getting snug while you’re strength training, that might be the best sign you’re actually doing it right. Heather Yancey delivers a blunt midlife reset on what women have been taught to celebrate, and why it’s time to stop treating clothing size like a fitness scorecard.Using a client story about building muscle, getting stronger, and protecting bone health, Heather breaks down the real reason your legs or glutes may take up more space when your training is working. This is the conversation women rarely get: the difference between shrinking and becoming capable. You’ll discover: Why tighter pants can signal muscle gain, not failure How progressive overload changes body composition without relying on the scale Why glutes, quads, and other lower-body muscles matter for long-term independence How resistance training supports bone density, mobility, and longevity Why muscle is metabolically useful, especially in midlife Heather also challenges the old fitness script built around “tone,” “lean out,” and “lose the last 10 pounds,” replacing it with a more powerful question: are you smaller, or are you stronger? She reframes the goal from disappearing to building the kind of body that can carry groceries, climb stairs, hike farther, travel, lift, and keep saying yes to life.If you’re tired of measuring progress by the waistband and want a smarter, stronger standard for fitness in your 40s, 50s, 60s, and beyond, this one will hit hard. Essential listening for any woman ready to build muscle, protect her bones, and stop apologizing for taking up space.
