You are not broken - but midlife fat loss does need a different plan. If you’ve been told “eat 1200 calories and move more,” save this and send it to a friend who needs a reality check. What your doctor may miss: Not all belly fat is the same - subcutaneous fat and visceral fat are very different. A calorie target without protein and muscle support can cost you muscle. In midlife, losing weight without a strategy can backfire fast. The goal isn’t to eat less and suffer. The goal is to lose fat, protect muscle, and actually feel confident in your body again. If you’re 40+ and tired of jumping f
Surfing is not just a sport - it can be the permission slip women have been waiting for to choose joy, build confidence, and stop putting themselves last. Angie from Sisterhood of Surf shares how women in their 50s, 60s, and beyond are getting in the water for the first time and discovering it is never too late to start. What begins as a beginner surf session quickly opens into a bigger conversation about age, identity, and the power of having something that is just for you. Chanel and Angie unpack why so many women think they are too old, too unfit, or not “good enough” to try something new,
I used to think grief was just about loss — turns out, it’s a roller coaster I never signed up for. 🎢 Drop a 💙 if you’re navigating tough emotions right now — you’re not alone. Over the past few weeks, I’ve been crying, moving, and figuring out how to keep going after losing our beloved dog. But here’s the truth — grief doesn’t follow a timeline, and some days are just harder than others. What’s helped me? Journaling my feelings ✍️ Moving my body, even when I don’t feel like it 🚶♀️ Being kind to myself on days I can’t do everything 🌸 Leaning on my community and support system 🤝 Prioritiz

When we have body composition goals, sometimes they can drag on endlessly. That is not good for the outcome, or for our mindset. Having firm goals helps us achieve and stay focussed. Sometimes we need to mix things up, having goals that are non-scale victories. Join the waitlist for my next program in Sept: https://chanelstuck.com/thrive-in-menopause-waitlist/

Everywhere you look right now, there’s a new "biohack" promising to fix midlife metabolism, clear brain fog, and accelerate fat loss. But how much of it is actually backed by science, and how much is just clever marketing? In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on my own health experiments. Over the last few weeks, I’ve been testing two of the biggest trends in the health space: Ketone-IQ shots and Vively continuous blood trackers. I am breaking down exactly how my body responded, what the data showed, and my final verdict as a sports nutritionist on whether you should actually spend yo

In today’s episode, I’m sitting down with Vanessa to dig into why standard protein bars wreck our guts, how she engineered a clean, allergen-friendly, low-FODMAP certified alternative that actually tastes incredible, and what it really takes to build a health-first brand from the ground up.

If you are 40+ and struggling with stubborn weight, low energy, and a metabolism that feels like it has completely flatlined... stop blaming your willpower. You aren't lazy, and you aren't doing it wrong—you are just playing by the wrong set of rules. What worked in your 20s and 30s will actively work against your hormones in peri and post-menopause. You’ve likely tried everything to get rid of that midsection fat, and you're starting to think, "Maybe this is just how it is now." It isn't. You don't need another extreme diet. You need a new masterplan. I am hosting a FREE Live Fat Loss Masterc

This is new. And there is a reason for it. My signature Thrive program runs 3 times a year, so the next one starts in June. The Thrive Sprint protocol I have been following that for the first time has shown results within the week I applied it. Being a midlife woman I understand the frustration that comes with fatloss at the stage and realise people do not want to wait until June to try this. To solve this, I have pulled the fatloss portion out of my program and will teach this in 21 days along with this new protocol I have been following. This is only for people who are frustrated with the be
Who else is chasing the six pack or constantly opening your social media seeing midlife women with six packs? In this episode I will uncover how as women we are always focussing on the body parts that elude us, instead of looking at what we do have and have worked for. Ready to shift your body composition and get results in 21 days? Only 20 women in this in-take.
