🤯 Episode #48 - Why Women Are Getting Facelifts 15 Years Earlier Now: Part 2 with Dr. Mark Karolak 🪡

🤍 Episode 50 - I Have Something to Tell You

Episode 50 is here - and it comes with a confession I've been sitting with. After 5½ years of building, certifying, creating, and showing up week after week...I've made the difficult decision to press pause on Peace & Plenty in 20. Not because I failed. Not because I quit. But because my body, my brain, and my life are LONGING for a different rhythm...and I finally decided to listen. In this milestone episode, I'm getting completely real with you about the burnout I didn't want to admit, the guilt that almost changed my mind, the shame I had to name and reframe, and what it actually means to choose yourself without apologizing. I'm also sharing where I'm going next...somewhere quieter, slower, and a lot more me. This one is for every woman who has kept going long past the point she should have stopped - because she didn't want to let anyone down. P.S. Episode 49 is still coming. I'm just waiting on final approval. It'll be out of order, but it's coming. 😉 🔑 WHAT WE COVER: 🌿 Why pressing pause is NOT quitting - and how nature (specifically hibernation 🐻) models this beautifully 🌿 The guilt AND the shame that started to creep in, but how I reframed both 🌿 How Substack feels like the most honest version of what I want to create right now. Find me HERE: https://substack.com/jeanninemderamo [https://substack.com/jeanninemderamo] 🌿 A reminder that there's a library of 50 episodes of Peace & Plenty in 20 for you! 👉 THIS WEEK'S ACTION STEP: Ask yourself honestly: Is there any area of your life is asking you to slow down? Are you being really true to yourself and your priorities in this season of life (whatever that is for you)? Take some intentional, invested time to sit with those questions and get really honest with yourself. Whatever it is that comes up...You're allowed to feel it and want it and restructure things. You really, truly are.❤️ Love you, friends. Cheers to living a balanced life of PEACE & PLENTY! 🥂

🤯 Episode #48 - Why Women Are Getting Facelifts 15 Years Earlier Now: Part 2 with Dr. Mark Karolak 🪡

In Part 2 of my conversation with Dr. Mark Karolak [https://www.instagram.com/drkarolak/], we're going DEEP on the topic everyone's curious about but afraid to ask: Facelifts. When do you actually need one? Why are women in their 40s getting them now? What's recovery REALLY like? And how do you know if you're ready? Dr. Karolak is answering these questions with his signature honesty and zero pressure. Whether you're considering surgery, just curious, or years away from even thinking about it...this conversation is essential midlife listening. 🔑 WHAT WE COVER: ➡Why the average age for facelifts dropped from 55-70 to 42-60 (and what that means for you) ➡The truth about "preventative facelifts"—do they even make sense? ➡Why some non-surgical treatments actually ACCELERATE aging 😳 ➡How to know when it's the right time for surgery vs. when to stick with Botox/filler ➡What a facelift can do (and what it CAN'T do—this is crucial) ➡Real recovery timeline: day-by-day breakdown from surgery to final results 👉 THIS WEEK'S ACTION STEP: If you're even remotely considering facial plastic surgery (now or in the future), start doing your research NOW. Look at surgeons' Instagram feeds. Study their before-and-afters. Do their results look natural? Do patients still look like themselves? Your homework starts before you ever book a consult. 🔗 Check out the AMAZING patient results on Dr. Karolak's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drkarolak/ [https://www.instagram.com/drkarolak/] Visit the website to learn more: https://drkarolak.com [https://drkarolak.com] 🔔 SUBSCRIBE to get new episodes every Wednesday - your midweek reminder that you get to make informed choices about your own face and body! ✨ #peaceandplentyin20 #facelift #facialplasticsurgery #cosmeticsurgery #agingracefully #womenover40 #midlifewomen #plasticsurgery #faceliftsurgery #midlifebeauty #cosmeticprocedures #antiaging

💉Episode 47: The Truth About Aging Gracefully - What Actually Works (Part 1 with Dr. Karolak)

Let's talk about the elephant in the room: cosmetic procedures. If you've been wondering what's real, what works, and what to avoid when it comes to aging gracefully - this conversation is for you. I'm sitting down with Dr. Mark Karolak, one of America's top facial plastic surgeons, and we're getting REAL about everything from "Ozempic face" to filler fatigue, fat transfers to facelifts, and the truth about what makes women look pulled versus polished. No judgment. No pressure. Just honest answers to the questions you've been Googling at 2am. 🔑 WHAT WE COVER: ➡️ What makes facial plastic surgery different from regular plastic surgery (and why it matters) ➡️ Dr. Karolak's philosophy: "understated elegance" and restoring your face vs. changing it ➡️ The TRUTH about "Ozempic face" – is it real, and can you prevent it? ➡️ Filler: friend or foe? When it works, when it doesn't, and how to avoid "pillow face" ➡️ Fat transfer vs. filler: which one is right for you (and which one you can't undo) ➡️ Why some women look "done" and others look naturally refreshed ➡️ The biggest mistake women make when considering cosmetic procedures ➡️ How to choose a surgeon whose aesthetic matches what YOU actually want 👉 THIS WEEK'S ACTION STEP: If you've been thinking about any cosmetic procedure - from Botox to a facelift - do your homework FIRST. Look at a surgeon's before-and-after photos. Do their results match your aesthetic? Do their patients still look like themselves, just better? This is YOUR face. You get to be picky.

💪🏻 Episode #46 - Courage & Crazy: What It Really Takes to Start Over in Midlife (Part 2) with Anna Fishman

💭What if the thing holding you back from your dream isn't lack of ability, but lack of permission? 🎙️ In this powerful conversation, I sit down with entrepreneur and risk-taker Anna Fishman  ⁨@oleganatravelboutique⁩ [https://studio.youtube.com/channel/UC3F3Rv6MSWEavPsuNmPtkBg]  to talk about what it really takes to leave corporate safety and bet on yourself in midlife. We're getting raw and real about the fear that comes with entrepreneurship, the "courage & crazy" combo you need to take the leap, and why sometimes the scariest thing is actually the safest choice for your soul. 🔑 WHAT WE COVER: ➡️ Why courage isn't the absence of fear - it's taking action despite it ➡️ The "safety net" mentality that keeps high-achievers stuck in corporate jobs they've outgrown ➡️ Why entrepreneurship at midlife requires a combination of "courage and crazy" (and maybe a little more crazy) ➡️ The real costs of playing it safe when your soul is screaming for something different ➡️ How to give yourself permission to fail - because the biggest failure is never trying 👉 THIS WEEK'S ACTION STEP: Ask yourself: "What would I do if I knew I couldn't fail?" Write it down. Then ask the harder question: What's the real cost of NOT trying? Sometimes the riskiest move is staying exactly where you are.
