In this inspiring episode of the Born or Made podcast, Annemarie LaTulip sits down with Coach Mo Cooper, a certified nutrition and lifestyle coach who has maintained a 65+ pound weight loss for over 15 years. Mo shares her deeply personal journey, from being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis at age 29 to transforming her life by embracing fitness, stress management, and a sustainable healthy lifestyle at age 39. Together, they explore the power of small changes, the hidden toll of stress, and the importance of treating yourself like a most-loved one.
Transformation After 39: Mo didn’t start focusing on health and exercise until age 39, proving it’s never too late to change.
Stress and Cortisol: They explored how chronic stress—more than just stress eating—can lead to weight gain and overall health decline.
Lifestyle vs. Diets: Fad diets like keto and Whole30 were discussed, with Mo advocating for sustainable, nourishing habits over extremes.
Movement and Mindset: Resistance training, meditation, and scheduling self-care were emphasized as tools for long-term health.
Self-Worth and Accountability: Mo encourages women to treat themselves like someone they love deeply and rely on community support for motivation.
Hormones and Aging: They touched on how hormonal shifts after 40 affect metabolism and why nutrition and strength training become even more critical.
