Goddess Got Goals
Goddess Got Goals is a podcast for women in midlife who feel tired of pushing, pretending, and holding it all together — and know, deep down, that something is ready to change.
Hosted by Lisa Barwise, Wellness Alchemist and author of Unarmoured, this show explores what it really means to soften, heal, and return to yourself after years of over-giving, people-pleasing, and carrying invisible armour. Through honest personal stories, nervous system wisdom, energy psychology, sacred strength, and practical magic, each episode invites you to stop fighting your body and start listening to it.
This isn’t about discipline, reinvention, or becoming someone new.
It’s about safety before strength, compassion before consistency, and learning how to live — and lead — from a regulated, embodied place.
This is the Warrior Goddess SAGA.
Not the rise before the fall — but the rise after you come home to yourself.
Because Goddess Got Goals.

TTT: 3 Top Tips for Crushing Cravings in Midlife
Do you feel like your cravings have become stronger in your 40s and 50s?
One minute you're fine. The next you're raiding the kitchen looking for chocolate, crisps, toast or something sweet.
If you've been wondering where your willpower has gone, you're not alone.
The truth is that cravings in midlife are often driven by much more than a lack of discipline. Hormonal changes, sleep disruption, blood sugar fluctuations and changing nutritional needs can all play a role.
In this week's Top Tip Tuesday, Lisa shares three simple but powerful strategies that can help reduce cravings, improve energy and help you feel more in control around food.
In This Episode:
⚔️ Why cravings often become stronger during perimenopause and menopause
⚔️ The surprising connection between hormones, hunger and food choices
⚔️ Why your body may be sending you signals that you're misinterpreting
⚔️ How to work with your changing physiology instead of fighting against it
⚔️ Three practical tips you can start using today to help reduce cravings naturally
Key Takeaway
Cravings aren't always about food.
Sometimes they're a signal that your body needs something else entirely.
When you understand what's driving them, you can stop relying on willpower and start working with your body instead of against it.
