Midlife isn't the beginning of the end β it's the beginning of your encore. π₯
In this episode of GenX Journeys, Paul sits down with Lydia Magnoli, online fitness coach, content creator, and founder of The Magnoli Method app. Lydia opens up about leaving a "safe" tenured job as a school psychologist to follow her true calling, losing 65+ pounds naturally, and helping women over 40 build strength, confidence, and healthier habits without a gym.
You'll hear about:
π Reinvention after 40: trusting the inner voice when others doubt you
πͺ Why fitness after 40 is about energy and confidence, not just looks
π§ The power of discipline vs. motivation (and daily practices that stick)
π₯ How small habit shifts lead to big transformations
π² How Lydia's Magnoli Method app and coaching programs empower women to thrive
Plus, stick around for some GenX fun: Lydia shares her favorite artists, her workout playlist go-tos, and her '80s/'90s crush.
Whether you're ready to reinvent your career, your health, or your mindset β this episode will remind you: it's never too late.
