  • Redefining Strength Training for Midlife Women with Vanesa Nicolosi

    Redefining Strength Training for Midlife Women with Vanesa Nicolosi
    Nov 12 2025
    In this episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, Jacqueline talks with Vanesa Nicolosi, a women's personal trainer, who is on a mission to help women redefine what fitness means — especially in midlife and beyond. Vanesa's approach is refreshingly different. She doesn't train women to look a certain way — she trains them to move better, feel stronger, and age with confidence. Together, we explore how strength training supports healthy aging, prevents injury, improves bone and joint health, and empowers women to stay active, independent, and pain-free as they move through life. This conversation challenges the myths that have long kept women out of the weight room. From the fear of "getting bulky" to the belief that it's too late to start, Vanesa explains why every woman, at any age, can benefit from strength training. We also talk about the emotional side of fitness — self-compassion, body image, and how social media's "skinny ideal" is shaping a new generation's view of health. Vanesa's philosophy is simple but profound: train because you love your body, not because you hate it. We explore in this episode: Why strength training is essential for women's long-term health, energy, and independence. How to start small and build confidence through home-based or low-equipment workouts. The difference between exercise and daily movement — and why both matter for healthy aging. How to challenge body image myths and build self-esteem through movement. Why muscle is protective, not masculine — and how it supports metabolism, joints, and bones. How to make exercise a sustainable lifestyle, not a punishment or short-term goal. The importance of positive role models and teaching younger women to value strength over thinness. Vanesa's message is one of empowerment and possibility. Strength training isn't about achieving a look — it's about creating a life of freedom, vitality, and resilience. Whether you're just starting out or looking to reclaim your strength in midlife, this conversation will inspire you to move with purpose and train with self-love. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations. ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://www.growstrongher.com/ https://www.instagram.com/growstrongherwithme ✨ Let's Stay Connected: 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/ ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🛜 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🔅 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120 🗨️ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/

  • The Wisdom of Women's Body: Rethinking Menopause, HRT, and Women's Health with Tania Elfersy

    The Wisdom of Women's Body: Rethinking Menopause, HRT, and Women's Health with Tania Elfersy
    Nov 5 2025
    In this thought-provoking episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I am joined by author, transformative coach, and women's health advocate Tania Elfersy. Together, they unpack the radical idea that menopause is not a deficiency disease to be "fixed" but a natural rite of passage that carries its own wisdom—if only we learn to listen. Tania shares her personal journey through perimenopause, where she went from feeling like she was "falling apart" at 43 to experiencing spontaneous healing after discovering the Three Principles of Innate Health. She invites us to see our symptoms not as malfunctions, but as the body's way of communicating imbalance. The conversation challenges the dominant narrative around HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy)—from flawed research to the risks of long-term use—and explores why lifestyle, stress, and mindset may be more powerful allies than medication alone. Jacqueline and Tania also dive into the cultural roots of how women's health has been pathologized, the protective role of midlife weight gain, and the importance of teaching younger generations to trust their bodies. In this episode we explore:: Why menopause is a rite of passage, not a medical problem to "fix." How symptoms are messages from the body — and what happens when we learn to listen. The hidden role of stress in shaping women's health across life stages. Why much of today's HRT research doesn't reflect the reality of natural menopause. The protective wisdom behind midlife weight gain and what it means for long-term health. How teaching younger women to trust their bodies can prevent struggles later in life. This episode is both a challenge to outdated medical models and a call to embrace body wisdom, intuition, and holistic approaches to women's health. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations. ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://www.thewiserwoman.com/ https://www.facebook.com/TheWiserWoman https://www.linkedin.com/in/taniaelfersy/ ✨ Let's Stay Connected: 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/ ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🛜 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🔅 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120 🗨️ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/

    In this deeply moving episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, Jacqueline Rose sits down with Jessa Reynolds, who shares her powerful story of living with endometriosis. From her first symptoms at age 11 to a delayed diagnosis 17 years later, Jessa reveals the physical, emotional, and mental toll of this misunderstood condition. Together, they explore the systemic failures in women's healthcare—from dismissive doctors to barriers in accessing treatment—and the life-altering decisions many women face, such as multiple surgeries or hysterectomy. Jessa's story sheds light on the urgent need for better education, advocacy, and compassionate care for women with endometriosis. This conversation is not only about struggle but also about strength: the importance of support systems, the power of self-advocacy, and the resilience it takes to live with a condition that is so often overlooked. In this episode we explore: 🌸 A delayed diagnosis – Jessa shares her 17-year journey from first symptoms at age 11 to finally being diagnosed at 28. 🌸 The silent toll of endometriosis – how pain extends beyond reproductive organs, affecting the whole body and daily life. 🌸 Healthcare dismissal and advocacy – the role of her mother, support groups, and the fight to be believed. 🌸 Treatment challenges – from excision surgery to hysterectomy, and the barriers women face in accessing appropriate care. 🌸 Empowerment and resilience – Jessa's message on trusting your intuition, finding community, and never diminishing your pain.
