MASTERING MIDLIFE

Mastering Midlife: Reclaim Your Body, Energy, and Vitality

Mastering Midlife is one of my five online group coaching programs (#5), and it’s designed to help you take control of your midlife journey. Weight gain is often considered “normal” in middle age—THIS DOES NOT HAVE TO BE THE CASE. This drives me crazy.

Yes, our bodies change—but in this program, I coach the changes that do occur in our mid years, without accepting the “mom/dad bod” as inevitable. Midlife is your final opportunity to create the change necessary to live a full, vibrant golden era. This program is epic, life-altering, and usually only offered once a year.

Your Midlife Experience Doesn’t Have to Be “Normal”

Many people enter midlife expecting fatigue, weight gain, joint pain, brain fog, and muscle loss—but decline is not inevitable. With the right strategies, you can have more energy, a leaner body, sharper thinking, and stronger bones than you did a decade ago. The key is learning to work with your body’s changing physiology, not against it.

Mastering Midlife 2025 Curriculum

Intro – The Reality Check
What most people experience vs. what’s possible. Learn how outliers stay strong, lean, and healthy for decades.
Unsick Yourself
Why most people enter midlife “sick” and how to turn it around. Focus on insulin resistance, leaky gut, low-grade inflammation, and mitochondrial decline.

Fuel your body for longevity, leanness, and energy. Nutrient essentials for muscle, bone, brain, and hormone health, plus anti-inflammatory foods and targeted supplementation for midlife performance and recovery.
How to Build Meals for Leanness & Strength

A Final Word from Joanne Lee Cornish

If you’re just looking for another diet, I’m not the coach for you. But if you want to understand your body, master midlife physiology, and create long-term success, then this program is for you. As I always say, “When have you ever been good at something you didn’t understand? Never. We cannot wing weight loss—especially in midlife.” This is your chance to rock the golden era of your life, and I can’t wait to work with you.
