69: The Nervous System Truth Midlife Women Need with Dr. Alexandra Howson
Rest is not a luxury - it’s medicine, especially in midlife. In this episode of The Badass Reset Club, I’m joined by Dr. Alexandra Howson to unpack why women in perimenopause and menopause feel exhausted, wired, and burned out and why pushing harder is no longer the answer. Dr. Howson is the host and producer of the Write Medicine podcast, author of WriteCME Roadmap, and a Yoga for Menopause & Women’s Health specialist. She blends science and storytelling to help midlife women regulate their nervous systems, slow down, and restore energy through intentional rest. After navigating her husband’s stroke during Covid, panic attacks, and cumulative life stress, Alexandra learned firsthand that rest isn’t optional, it’s essential. In this conversation, we explore what’s actually happening in the nervous system and hormones when rest is ignored, why midlife is a biological turning point for burnout, and how micro-rest practices and mindset shifts can help women reset and thrive without stepping away from their lives. If you’re tired of white-knuckling your way through midlife and ready for a smarter, more sustainable reset, this episode is for you.

68: The One Thing You Must Do Before You Set Goals for 2026
As the year comes to a close, many women feel a quiet frustration: I know what to do… so why doesn’t it feel like it’s working yet? In this episode of The Badass Reset Club, Heather invites you to slow down before rushing into the next plan or goal. Instead of focusing on what didn’t change, this conversation walks you through a meaningful year-end reflection- physically, mentally, and spiritually. You’ll explore why body composition, energy, and muscle changes often take longer in midlife than we expect, how mental resilience and stress responses shape consistency, and why reconnecting with purpose and meaning is a missing piece of sustainable health. This is not about fixing yourself for the new year. It’s about recognizing the progress you’ve already made, naming the wins you may have overlooked, and carrying clarity, not pressure into 2026. Grab a notebook, take a breath, and reflect alongside this episode as you reset with intention.

67: Stress vs. Trauma in Midlife with Dr. Aimie Apigian
So many midlife women describe themselves as stressed, but what if what we’re calling “stress” is actually something deeper happening inside the body? In this powerful conversation, Heather sits down with Dr. Aimie Apigian, physician, speaker, and author of The Biology of Trauma, to unpack the difference between everyday stress and stored trauma that shows up as overwhelm, exhaustion, irritability, or feeling “stuck.” Together, they explore why midlife is often the moment unresolved patterns surface, how the nervous system drives our physical and emotional responses, and why pushing harder, at work, at home, or even in the gym, can actually reinforce a survival state. Dr. Aimie shares how to know the difference of recognizing tools for healing rather than triggers for dysregulation, and she offers the first steps to reset your system, build true resilience, and reconnect with the energy and clarity you’ve been missing. If you’ve been living in go-mode for so long it feels normal, this episode will help you understand your body, reclaim your power, and finally begin your reset.

65: Beyond the Scale: What Fit for TV Got Wrong About Weight Loss
After watching Netflix’s new documentary Fit for TV: The Reality of The Biggest Loser, Heather dives into one of the biggest misconceptions in health and fitness - that the number on the scale defines your success. In this eye-opening episode of The Badass Reset Club, Heather breaks down what the show got wrong about transformation and what real health looks like in midlife. She unpacks her RESET framework - Resilience, Energy, Strength, Empowerment, and Transformation to show why midlife women need to focus less on shrinking and more on building: building muscle, building energy, and building a body that supports them for decades to come. You’ll learn: Why muscle is more important than the number on the scale How building strength protects metabolism, bones, and longevity Why energy, sleep, and stress management matter more than calories The dangers of extreme weight loss revealed in Fit for TV How to redefine transformation in perimenopause and beyond If you’ve ever felt frustrated that your weight won’t budge or wondered why you’re doing all the “right” things but don’t feel stronger...this episode will completely shift how you measure progress. It’s time to stop letting the scale tell your story. It’s time to hit the RESET.
