  • GLP-1 Drugs, Weight Loss & Midlife: What You Need to Know
    Oct 14 2025

    GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro are everywhere right now—and for good reason. They promise significant weight loss, and yes, they often deliver. But what’s really going on behind the scenes?

    In this episode of The Midlife Mud, Morgan and Chris explore how GLP-1 drugs work, why they’re making waves in the weight loss world, and what people most often overlook when considering them, especially in the context of midlife.

    They cover:

    • How GLP-1 medications affect blood sugar, appetite, and weight regulation
    • Why midlife metabolism changes the game (hello, stress and hormone shifts)
    • The pros: weight loss, lower cholesterol, improved insulin sensitivity
    • The cons: muscle loss, side effects, weight regain after stopping
    • What to consider before starting these medications
    • Why a holistic, intentional health strategy still matters
    • Plus: a story about bread that says a lot about how we’ve approached weight loss over the years 🥖

    Whether you're GLP-1 curious, skeptical, or just trying to make sense of the midlife health landscape, you’ll walk away from this episode feeling more informed and better equipped to make decisions that actually fit you.

  • The Myth of Independence: Why Self-Reliance Isn’t What It Used to Be
    Sep 30 2025

    We’ve glorified independence for generations — the lone wolf, the self-made success, the one who never asks for help. But where did that story actually come from, and is it still serving us?

    In this episode of Midlife Mud, we explore the roots of American individualism — from frontier survival to the modern hustle — and unpack the benefits and the hidden costs of this deeply ingrained value. From aging and isolation to the illusion of control in a world run by AI, Amazon, and Uber, we’re asking: is true independence even possible anymore… or have we been sold a myth?

    Whether you’re wrestling with what it means to “do it all,” or just starting to question the pressure to go it alone, this conversation might shift how you see strength, self-reliance, and success.

  • Stop Waiting to Feel Motivated (Do This Instead)
    Sep 16 2025

    Ever feel like your motivation packs its bags and leaves the second you commit to something new? You’re not alone. In this episode of The Midlife Mud, Morgan and Chris get real about why motivation is so hard to hold onto, and what actually works to keep moving forward.

    They talk about:

    • Why that first burst of excitement always seems to fade
    • The myth that you have to “feel motivated” before you take action
    • How small steps can create momentum (and motivation!)
    • What really gets in the way — burnout, hormones, decision fatigue, even social media pressure
    • Why aligning goals with what actually matters to you is the key to keeping momentum

    This conversation is part pep talk, part reality check, and part permission slip to stop beating yourself up. If you’ve been wondering why you can’t just “push through” or why your willpower feels broken, this one’s for you.

    👟 Takeaway: Motivation isn’t a personality trait, it’s a moving target. Learn how to meet it where it is, create it when it’s missing, and give yourself a break along the way.
