Author: Jason Cook - Nutrition and Health Coaching for Women Over 40 April 14, 2026 Duration: 10:20
If you’re a woman over 40 who feels out of control with food — even though you used to be disciplined — this episode will hit home. Menopause doesn’t just change hormones; it changes how safe flexibility feels. Today we break down why food feels louder, why loosening control feels risky, and how to rebuild self-trust without going back to restriction. This is about restoring authority around food so it stops dominating your thoughts.

Hosted by Jason Cook, a nutrition and health coach specializing in supporting women over forty, the 1% Better Podcast-Health Coaching & Positive Mindset for Women Over 40 is built on a simple, powerful idea: monumental change doesn't require monumental effort. Instead, it's about the consistent, small choices that compound over time. This isn't about drastic overhauls or quick fixes that fizzle out. You'll hear real, unfiltered stories from women who have walked this path, detailing how subtle shifts in their daily routines around food, movement, and thought patterns led to surprisingly significant results. Jason and his team of coaches break down practical strategies, from navigating nutrition in a busy life to cultivating a resilient mindset that sticks. The conversations are grounded, empathetic, and specifically tailored to the unique physiological and lifestyle considerations that come with this vibrant chapter of life. This podcast serves as a steady companion for anyone feeling stuck or overwhelmed, offering actionable insights that feel manageable. It’s a resource for building sustainable health from the ground up, one percent at a time.
