In this episode of the Wellness Rebranded podcast, we dive into the world of menopause and how fitness routines can help women thrive during this challenging phase of life. Join us as we uncover the secrets to maintaining strength, confidence, and mental well-being. But beware, just when you think you have all the answers, a surprising twist to everything you heard in this episode is “challenged.”. You’ll have to tune in to discover the twist...
 
Weight training is as close to a magic pill as you’re going to get during menopause. It improves energy levels, builds strength, and boosts confidence in your body’s abilities.   
- Tara DeLeon
The Benefits of Weight TrainingWeight training is beneficial for physical fitness at any stage of life, but it gains higher significance during menopause. Research has shown that strength training improves energy levels, builds physical strength, boosts self-confidence, and has a positive impact on mental health. This is beneficial during menopause as it helps women regain self-confidence in their bodies and abilities, especially when they could be dealing with body-image issues or grieving over physical changes. During the discussion, Tara explains how weight training can profoundly impact women during menopause. Not only does it enhance energy levels, but it also fosters confidence and boosts mood. From Tara's professional experience, weight training stands out as the apt tool for managing menopausal symptoms, being vital for regaining physical prowess and boosting mental strength. For her, it is especially significant for women who are grappling with self-esteem or body image issues, offering a comprehensive solution for holistic and improved wellness.

33. How To Be A Good Listener - And Why It Matters

Are you tired of struggling with communication and want to improve your skills? Effective listening can improve just about every relationship. Yet it’s a skill that most of us aren’t taught. You may be familiar with these common approaches we often take when we listen:
Approach #1: Judging the actions of others. 
Approach #2: “One-upping” the other person’s problems. 
Approach #3: Giving advice. 
If so, we’re here to share why they don’t work.  More importantly, we’ll suggest alternate responses that DO build connections as Maria gives us the “Cliff Notes” from her workshop “How to Listen for Real.” Let's break down the barriers to effective communication and learn the importance of listening skills together!
 
When we listen well, we confirm to the other person that what they're sharing is valid. 
- Maria Winters
 
Your takeaways from the show:
Understand the power of validation in strengthening communication and building lasting connections.
Spot typical listening pitfalls that hinder meaningful conversations.
Assess the impact of smartphone addiction on our capacity to truly listen.
Discover the fascinating world of internal dialogue and the “me channel” and how they can get in the way of focused listening.
Embrace the importance of cultivating and maintaining exceptional listening skills for thriving relationships.
