Ep. 41: Aging, Sobriety and Women’s Wellness After 40

Worrying about your drinking is a lonely and dark place to be, especially in midlife when women often feel stressed out, unfulfilled and lonely. And that’s where my guest, Lori Massicot, says she lived for too long. At 45 Lori says she was an over-drinker, overeater, "sky is falling" type of gal who, after questioning her drinking for two years, finally decided to stop drinking. And then she discovered all the possibilities available to her now that she no longer spent her evenings on the couch drinking. Lori is now a life coach specializing in sobriety, mindset transformation and holistic wellness for women over 40 and hosts the podcast To 50 And Beyond. Being sober has given Lori a second chance at life and enabled her to become who she genuinely is, without the façade she was trying to keep up with for decades. In this episode, Lori and I explore: Why more and more women are deciding to stop drinking at age 40, 50 and 60 How “aging sober” empowers women to live healthier, happier and more confident lives. Why midlife is a good time to reevaluate your relationship with alcohol as you look to the decades ahead The perimenopause journey and how to get beyond it sober The correlation between drinking and weight gain in midlife How women’s wellness after 40 is improved by being alcohol-free SHOWNOTES: www.hellosomedaycoaching.com/41 About Lori Massicot Lori is a Life Coach specializing in sobriety, mindset transformation, and holistic wellness for women over 40.
