253 Ditch the Diets: Holly Bertone on Reclaiming Health in Midlife

Welcome back to The Midlife Makeover Show! In this inspiring
episode, Wendy Valentine chats with Holly Bertone, former FBI
Chief of Staff turned Certified Holistic Health Coach and host of
the Your Midlife Comeback Story podcast. Holly shares her
incredible journey of overcoming breast cancer, healing from
autoimmune disease, and transforming her life to help midlife
women break free from the diet cycle and reclaim their health,
vitality, and happiness.


 


Holly introduces her 5-Step ROCKY Framework, a unique and
powerful approach to lasting, sustainable health without the
burnout. Together, Wendy and Holly explore:


The emotional triggers behind stress eating and how to break
free.

Why midlife health starts with mindset shifts and self-worth.

The importance of metabolic health for long-term quality of
life.

How to rewire your brain for better habits and lasting
change.

Practical tools to help you come back home to yourself and
thrive in midlife.



 


This episode is packed with actionable advice, empowering
insights, and inspiring stories. Whether you’re struggling with
weight gain, stress, or finding balance in midlife, Holly’s
wisdom and expertise will help you take charge of your health and
happiness.


 


Key Takeaways:
Emotional eating is tied to validation and self-worth—learning
to break this cycle is key. Lasting health comes from aligning
nutrition, movement, stress, and sleep. Small, consistent changes
lead to big results and long-term success. Self-care isn’t
selfish—it’s a necessity for living your best life. It’s never too
late to make a comeback and create the life you deserve.
