Coach Confessional: Midlife Muscle, Menopause, & AI Health Hacks You’ll Want to Try

We’re back with another raw, unfiltered (and hilarious) episode of the Coach Confessional—and this one might be our most honest yet. FASTer Way Founder + CEO Amanda Tress sits down with Direction of Education at FASTer Way, Pro Trainer, and midlife wellness enthusiast Le Bergin to unpack their recent adventures… and trust us, you’re gonna want to listen in.

From dance parties with 60-year-old menopause experts to overcoming ziplining fears in Costa Rica to—wait for it—using ChatGPT as a personal wellness assistant, this conversation is packed with real-life insights and laugh-out-loud moments. 

Here’s a sneak peek at what you’ll learn in the latest episode.

Confessions, Menopause, and Midlife Muscle: Let’s Talk About It

🎉 Midlife Isn’t the End—It’s the Beginning

Lee recently attended a camp-style event focused on thriving in midlife—and came back FIRED UP. From breaking down myths about menopause to learning about bone density, sex, hormones, and muscle growth, the message was loud and clear: this isn’t the time to fade out… it’s time to level up.

  • How menopause is being reframed (spoiler: life can get even better over 50)
  • Why building muscle after 40 is non-negotiable for hormone balance
  • The shocking stat about bone loss in postmenopausal women—and how to reverse it

🧠 Amanda’s AI Biohack: How ChatGPT Became Her Wellness Sidekick

In true confessional fashion, Amanda spills the tea on how she’s been using ChatGPT as a personal health assistant—and let’s just say, it’s next-level. From uploading genetic reports to getting real-time supplement advice (and encouragement!), AI has become an unexpected tool in her wellness toolkit.

You’ll hear:

  • 🧬 How Amanda discovered genetic detox limitations (and why alcohol wipes her out for days)
  • 📊 How tracking symptoms + genetic data = personalized supplement strategies
  • 👩‍⚕️ Why she still recommends seeing your doctor—but how AI can bridge the gap between appointments

🌴 Zip Lines, Fresh Food, & Coach Retreats in Costa Rica

The March retreat in Costa Rica was pure magic. Top-performing FASTer Way coaches earned their way to a week of adventure, connection, and fresh mangoes—and yes, Amanda is back on the zipline again after facing her fears post-accident.

Tune in to hear:

  • ✨ What made this retreat extra special
  • 🍍 Amanda’s Costa Rica food obsession
  • 🎉 The mindset shift that happened for every coach there

🔬 Coming Soon: A Can’t-Miss Fat Loss Resistance Training with Dr. Bill Campbell

📆 Add this to your watch list—you’ll hear more in the episode!
