In this episode, JoAnne welcomes Meredith Vieceli—Certified Holistic Health Coach, mom of two boys, entrepreneur, and athlete, for a powerful conversation on midlife wellness, hormonal clarity, and the simple habits that truly move the needle.
For over 15 years, Meredith has helped women build healthier minds and bodies one small step at a time. After leaving a lucrative but soul-draining corporate job, she followed her calling to support busy women in reclaiming their energy, improving their quality of life, and feeling genuinely well. Her background as a competitive endurance athlete—including completing Ironman Wisconsin and the Boston Marathon—gives her a deep understanding of performance, recovery, and the shifting needs of the female body.
In our conversation, Meredith shares how her coaching has evolved to meet the needs of an underserved and often overwhelmed group: midlife women navigating hormonal changes, confusion, and misinformation. She discusses the importance of foundational habits—hydration, sunlight, morning protein, daily movement, and sleep hygiene—and how simple, science-backed routines can transform wellbeing without adding overwhelm.
We also revisit her entrepreneurial journey with the B Bar, a clean, low-glycemic endurance bar she created in 2012. Meredith opens up about the challenges of scaling, the tension between growth and quality, and her decision to discontinue the product to maintain integrity. The experience became a self-taught masterclass in product development, manufacturing, and brand stewardship.
Meredith’s coaching philosophy centers on personalization, helping women tune into their bodies, trust their intuition, and create sustainable habits.
This episode is rich with wisdom, practical takeaways, and heartfelt conversation—perfect for any woman seeking balance, clarity, and nourishment in the midst of a busy life.
