253 🌟 Ditch the Diets: Holly Bertone on Reclaiming Health in Midlife

Welcome back to The Midlife Makeover Show! In this inspiring episode, Wendy Valentine chats with Holly Bertone, former FBI Chief of Staff turned Certified Holistic Health Coach and host of the Your Midlife Comeback Story podcast. Holly shares her incredible journey of overcoming breast cancer, healing from autoimmune disease, and transforming her life to help midlife women break free from the diet cycle and reclaim their health, vitality, and happiness.

 

Holly introduces her 5-Step ROCKY Framework, a unique and powerful approach to lasting, sustainable health without the burnout. Together, Wendy and Holly explore:

  • The emotional triggers behind stress eating and how to break free.
  • Why midlife health starts with mindset shifts and self-worth.
  • The importance of metabolic health for long-term quality of life.
  • How to rewire your brain for better habits and lasting change.
  • Practical tools to help you come back home to yourself and thrive in midlife.

 

This episode is packed with actionable advice, empowering insights, and inspiring stories. Whether you’re struggling with weight gain, stress, or finding balance in midlife, Holly’s wisdom and expertise will help you take charge of your health and happiness.

 

Key Takeaways:

  1. Emotional eating is tied to validation and self-worth—learning to break this cycle is key.
  2. Lasting health comes from aligning nutrition, movement, stress, and sleep.
  3. Small, consistent changes lead to big results and long-term success.
  4. Self-care isn’t selfish—it’s a necessity for living your best life.
  5. It’s never too late to make a comeback and create the life you deserve.
