Pursue Your Spark - Midlife, Fitness, Nutrition, Mindset, Health, women over 50

Heike Yates
For midlife women who want to feel strong, energized, and fully themselves, this is the podcast for you. You’ve tried every fitness trend and skimmed all the nutrition blogs, yet you still end the day drained, overwhelmed, and stuck in the same old rut.
The Pursue Your Spark Podcast helps you cut through the noise and take back control of your health with simple strategies that actually work in midlife. From strength-building workouts and sustainable movement (like Pilates), to mindset coaching and nutrition tips that support energy and hormone health, you’ll learn how to thrive, not just survive.
Unlike other midlife wellness shows that stay surface-level, we go deeper with simple tools and actionable steps to help you stay consistent, reduce stress, and feel strong inside and out.
Hosted by Midlife Fitness Expert and mindset coach Heike Yates, each episode brings coaching insights, listener questions, and behind-the-scenes stories from 40+ years of helping women thrive through transitions like menopause, empty nesting, and major life pivots.
If you're ready to stop overthinking and start feeling like yourself again, press play, subscribe, and say, “Yes, I can.” Thriving in midlife starts here.
