About this listen

Today’s guest, Adrian Mamikonian, is the epitome of grace, grit, and growth—and she’s walking proof that midlife reinvention is not only possible, it’s powerful.

Adrian is a 46-year-old mom of four (yes, four kids in four different school transitions!), a military wife living in Spain, and an integrative health practitioner who has completely transformed her life—from speech pathology to strength training and sustainable wellness. 🧠💪

In this episode, we get real about:

  • 💫 Living with constant transition as a military family

  • 🔁 Reinventing your health and career in midlife

  • ⚖️ The hidden cost of “pushing through” and how rest became her breakthrough

  • 🧘‍♀️ Integrative tools for hormone balance, perimenopause, inflammation & stress

  • 🥗 Ditching diet culture and fueling for energy—not restriction

  • ✨ The small, sustainable shifts that helped her (and her clients!) feel human again

If you’ve ever felt like your body is shifting and your energy is crashing, but you still have dreams to chase and people to serve—this conversation will encourage you to start where you are and honor what you need.

Adrian's story is a reminder that your second act can be stronger, wiser, and more empowered than ever before.
