120: Dr Mariza Snyder: How Walking, Movement Snacks and Strength Support You in Midlife

Ever wondered why midlife starts to feel different even when your routine looks the same? The shift can show up quietly. Your sleep changes, your patience feels thinner and your energy doesn’t land the way it used to. Half the time you can’t even explain what feels off. In this episode I sat down with a women’s wellness expert to talk about what begins to change in perimenopause, why movement becomes such an anchor in this stage and how simple habits like walking, strength work and movement snacks support your body in ways most women never hear about. If you have been feeling out of sync or sensing that your body is asking for something new, this conversation gives you a starting point that feels possible to follow. Dr Mariza Snyder is a best selling author and women’s health advocate who teaches practical habits that help women feel more energized and supported in midlife. She joined us to talk about how small daily choices move you forward in this transition.
