Hey Reader, I have big news. For the past 8 weeks, I've been working really hard on something and I've been itching to tell you about it, but I had to keep it under wraps until today. I BUILT AN APP! And it's finally available for everyone who wants to use it, today. My app is called Strength in Midlife -- A Daily Movement App for Aging Well. I created this app for women in perimenopause (and also those who are postmenopausal), who want to feel stronger as they get older by building a daily...

Hey Reader, I completely forgot to send an email to you last week. I had every intention of doing it. Then Monday came and went. And it wasn't until Thursday that I realized I hadn't sent an email. The same thing almost happened today. I reminded myself last night to write the email first thing and guess what? I nearly forgot again. I could blame lots of things. My kids are home and needing things from me constantly, so there's that distraction. I was doing other work that was equally...

Hey Reader, This weekend, I was out of town and off my regular movement routine. Because consistency matters more than pretty much everything else, I typically don't take days off. I might adjust the intensity of what I do or do less, time-wise. But I don't stop my daily movement practice just because I'm not at home and off my regular routine. I usually run on Saturday and do strength training on Sunday. Since I was packing very light and didn't feel like going for a run in an unknown town...

Hey Reader, I'll get right to the point. Here's the secret to consistency: Consistency is only hard if you make it hard. Most of us make it hard. Our expectations are high. We say we don't have time. We don't always know what to do. All of those things are solvable. This leads me to my movement snack for the week. Here's how to solve those issues: Shift your expectations.Your movement practice doesn't always have to be epic or challenging.Consistency matters more than going hard or doing 30...

Hey Reader, If you've spent any amount of time online, you've probably seen claims about how women should or should not be exercising during perimenopause. Stacey Sims, as an example, says women should not do moderate cardio, but focus on sprinting for their heart health. This is absolutely bananas advice, by the way. She is literally making things up and preying on people's lack of knowledge, combined with the insidiousness of diet culture, to financially profit. It's gross. But that's where...

Hey Reader, This Friday, my kids were home because even though there are just 7.5 days left in the school year, apparently they needed a Friday off. I had a ton of work to do, including filming a few classes for my online studio. My youngest, 6 years old and bored out of her mind, asked if she could "teach with me." Initially I said no. In fact, she interrupted me filming a class and I sort of lost my temper. Not my finest moment and I instantly felt guilty. Plus, I realized that my MOVE...

quick note: in a week, I will be changing which email you receive these newsletters from. Starting next Sunday/Monday, you'll receive emails from naomi@naomigottliebmiller.com! Hey Reader, I spent the weekend mostly offline and mostly with my kids. I am soloparenting for a week and after a busy (but fun) Saturday, my oldest decided that for Mother's Day, she was going to create a spa in my bathroom. So the 4 of us soaked our feet in bubbly bath water, wore face masks, and then decadently...

Hey Reader, You've gotten a lot of emails from me in the last 10 days, so I'm going to keep this brief. My brand new app, Strength in Midlife, is on sale through midnight tonight. You can purchase an annual or a quarterly subscription -- both are 20% off for a few more hours. Inside the app, you'll get a personalized movement program built with videos I've created to make daily movement more attainable, strength training more accessible, and aging feel more powerful. This app is best for...

Hey Reader, Today is the last day to take advantage of the special launch price for my new app, Strength in Midlife. I built this app for a few specific reasons, but mostly to offer a space for women over 40 to start and sustain a daily movement practice that emphasizes the importance of strength training and without all of the diet culture nonsense as a distraction. You don't have to set a weight loss goal. You're not measuring anything other than how many reps you do and how heavy the...
