Light as Medicine - Part 2: Invisible & hidden forces at work

The light we don’t sense with our eyes plays crucial roles in our survival in fascinating ways recently revealed by science (hint: we can sense it through our skin!)

Stephanie Matos

Mindset Wizard
Exercise Physiologist
Nutritionist

Steph has a Masters in Exercise Physiology and Nutrition, has lost 60lbs on her own health journey and has a LOT of life experience and lasting success overcoming the very obstacles you're probably struggling with right now.

She teaches science-based strategies to reduce stress, heal hormones, overcome emotional eating, and create sustainable change that lasts for life. Stephanie shares how true, lasting change (including weight loss) didn’t come from more knowledge - but from rewiring the mind-body connection in addition to the good habits. This leads to deeper mind-body results, stronger program follow-through, and deeper transformations. With an optimized mindset, members get better results.

Steph really understands the struggle and meets our members exactly where they’re at. Because while today, Steph a happy and successful woman, this wasn’t always the case: for most of her life, she lived a fear-driven existence, trapped in anxiety, overwhelm, and low self-confidence and worth.

From this deep dark hole, however, came a lot of light. She learned to heal herself through the systems and strategies she nowes teach today – what she refers to as a unique blend of science and magic.

This is also where she discovered my true calling: helping other women realize their potential and create a life they truly love.

Steph lives in Tampa, Florida and love personal development, all things health, yoga, beach/nature, history and art.

FAQs

  • As soon as you enrol, you’ll get immediate access to the full program curriculum so you can get started right away.

    We’ll also book your Launch Call with your Success Coach & your Intake Call with Dr Mary as soon as possible so you know exactly where to begin, how the program is structured, and what to focus on first.

    From there, you’ll move into the weekly lessons, your live coaching sessions, and the step by step guidance that walks you through the entire Better Beyond 40 Formula. You’ll never be left wondering what to do next.

  • We start with a comprehensive intake so I can recommend blood tests according to your unique situation and so I can see where you may need extra support.

    If you would like a referral to a prescribing doctor who is expert in female hormones / bio-identical hormone replacement, I set this up for you too. (I do NOT recommend going through your GP for hormone replacement, unless they have been pursued additional BHRT training!)

    Our work together incorporates your:

    • Personal & family health history

    • Blood work & labs

    • Unique hormone signature & metabolic status

    • Any medical conditions 

    • Any medications you are currently taking

    • Goals

    • Lifestyle preferences & restrictions

    • Optional: personalization for your unique genetic make-up

    With this information, I set you up with a personalized plan that is tailored to your body’s unique needs.

    Plus, you receive:

    • Accountability & habit formation training

    • Regular check-ins

    • Anytime support

    • A minimal # of custom supplement recommendations (if necessary/desired) based on your blood work, symptoms and lifestyle, delivered to your door at below market prices.

  • I built this program for BUSY women…as we all seem to be in our 40s!

    All you need is ~1-1.5 hours per week for the video content, since we focus on key takeaways and the practical stuff. Watch or listen as you commute, walk, etc. Easy and convenient.

    Plus, it doesn’t require that you incorporate a load of time-consuming habits into your routines - habit-stacking and efficiency are key!

  • The program is 12 weeks, but you have 16 weeks of access to ALL of it, including my support to allow for time off as you need.

    Most of my clients find 12 weeks is ample time to finish it comfortably, even on a busy schedule.

  • You’ll have full access for 14 weeks. We believe resolving the root causes of the hormonal and metabolic issues you’ve been struggling with shouldn’t take years. When you follow the right steps in the right order, change happens relatively quickly.

  • You get both. The core curriculum includes recorded videos, audio guides, and worksheets so you can learn at your own pace and revisit anything whenever you need it. You’ll have immediate, around the clock access to every lesson, exercise, worksheet, and tool right from home.

    But you’re not doing this alone. You’ll also have live group coaching calls where we answer any questions, refine your technique, and get you moving forward faster.

    Plus you get access to unlimited one-on-one sessions for personalized guidance, support, and problem solving.

    No appointments to commute to, no parking, and no clinic waiting rooms. Just a mix of structured lessons and real live support so you always know exactly what to do next.

Precision. Prevention. Education. Advocacy.
