Summary

Stacy chats with Courtney Townley, host of the Grace & Grit podcast, author of The Consistency Code, and a certified life, nutrition, and strength coach, to delve into the realities of midlife stress, hormonal changes, burnout, and the pressure to “do it all.” They explore why consistency matters more than perfection, how wellness culture often overcomplicates health, and the small, sustainable habits that can help women feel better without adding more to their already full plates. Sometimes the next right step isn't a complete life overhaul. It's one small change you can actually sustain.
