Love Your Naked Ass: The Midlife Rebellion Edition
Love Your Naked Ass: The Midlife Rebellion Edition is the next evolution of the original show — bigger, bolder, and built for the woman who’s officially done playing small.
This version is louder, more honest, and unapologetically here to call out every outdated, sugar-coated piece of midlife advice we’ve been fed for decades.
Hosted by Kimberly Riggins — certified health and life coach, holistic nutritionist, and unapologetic midlife rebel — this podcast gives you the raw, unfiltered truth about navigating perimenopause, menopause, and the messy magic of midlife. No filters. No shame. No pretending everything is “fine.”
Each week, we rebel against the rules and dive into real conversations about:
- Boosting energy and ditching midlife fatigue
- Navigating perimenopause without losing your sanity
- Eating smarter, lifting heavier, and feeling stronger
- Rebuilding confidence and creating your midlife comeback
- Redefining what it means to thrive in your 40s, 50s, and beyond
If you're ready to stop hiding, stop apologizing, and step into a midlife that finally feels like yours… you're exactly where you need to be.
Season 2 is officially here — and the rebellion is just getting started.

Building Muscle After 40: Stop the Excuses and Start the Work
If strength training feels harder than it used to…
If your body feels softer, slower, or less responsive…
If you keep starting and stopping workouts and wondering what’s wrong with you…
You’re not broken — you’re in midlife.
In this episode, we’re talking honestly about what it really takes to build and keep muscle after 40. Not hype. Not hustle. Not perfection. Just the truth about hormones, metabolism, consistency, and why strength training is no longer optional in this season of life.
Because here’s the truth no one spelled out for us:
After 40, your body doesn’t respond to “trying harder.”
She responds to intention, consistency, and strength.
This episode is part science, part real life, and part permission slip to stop beating yourself up and start showing up — imperfectly, consistently, and on purpose.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why building muscle after 40 is essential for hormones, metabolism, and longevity
- What actually happens to muscle and metabolism as estrogen declines
- Why cardio alone isn’t enough anymore
- Why consistency matters more than motivation — every single time
- How to rebuild strength after life, grief, or burnout knocks you off track
- Why perfection has zero place in midlife fitness
This isn’t about aesthetics.
It’s about strength that supports your energy, confidence, bones, mood, and independence.
Your body isn’t working against you — she’s asking for something different now.
Midlife Action Step
Commit to 30 days of movement.
Strength train 3–4x per week. Gentle movement counts on other days.
Track ONE thing — reps, energy, sleep, or consistency (not weight).
