In this inspiring and soul-stirring episode of Her Truth Revealed, we sit down with Laura Mak Quist, MS—a wellness and peptide coach, IFBB Fitness Pro, bestselling author of Become Empowered, and founder of Yoga Fit Life—who helps midlife women reclaim their vitality, strength, and confidence from the inside out.
Laura shares her extraordinary journey from elite gymnast and professional fitness competitor to navigating Hashimoto’s, IVF, and caregiving through loss. Her story shows that empowerment isn’t about perfection—it’s about resilience, surrender, and rediscovering strength through science, self-awareness, and compassion.
She takes us inside the realities of midlife health: hormonal shifts, muscle loss, and the emotional weight of transition. Rather than accept decline, Laura teaches that muscle is the currency of longevity, and mobility is how we spend it. Through bioactive peptides, mindful movement, and intentional living, she helps women unlock a new era of health and energy—proving that aging well is about thriving, not surviving.
Throughout the conversation, Laura offers practical strategies for building strength, protecting hormones, and integrating wellness into everyday life. She challenges listeners to embrace what she calls being Wisely Fierce—soft, strong, and unapologetic—living with grace, grit, and gratitude.
By the end of this episode, women will feel inspired to honor their bodies, move with intention, and see midlife as the most powerful chapter yet—one where strength, softness, and self-trust coexist beautifully.
