Summary

Did you know that feeling good about aging actually extends the number of years you’ll feel good while you age?  In our culture, we dread getting older, but if I knew how great life would be in my 60s, I would have been a lot more excited for it! I’ve decided this is going to be my best decade yet. I want your next decade to be your best, too, and today’s episode of the podcast is all about how to make that happen.  Today, I’m sharing the strategies that I've been deploying for aging powerfully—not just gracefully. And yes, that’s absolutely possible. With the right nutrition and habits, you really can outsmart your biology and become stronger and more full of life than ever before.  I’m covering it all: stress and how to do a better job of managing it, why weight isn’t a great measure of your metabolic health, exercises that are going to change your body inside and out, hormones, supplements… it’s all in here.  As always, I’m diving deep. You’re not just getting a list of to-dos, you’re going to learn why it matters, so you can find the energy and motivation to implement the strategies and continue to build and have the amazing, powerful life you deserve.
