Today, I’m talking to Joan MacDonald–a 77-year-old fitness influencer with 1.8 million Instagram followers. At 70, she was on medication for high blood pressure and acid reflux. She suffered from arthritis, couldn’t walk up and down stairs, and feared she may suffer from additional health issues in the future.

She enlisted her daughter and fitness trainer, Michelle, to help and achieved astounding results. She joined a transformation group called The Wonder Women, lost 60 pounds, and now works with her daughter to inspire, motivate, and train others to improve their wellness at any age on Instagram, YouTube, and her program, Train with Joan.

Together, they co-authored Flex Your Age, Defy Stereotypes and Reclaim Empowerment.

In our conversation, Joan and I talked about what inspired her to finally make a major lifestyle change, how you can change your beliefs about physical health and aging at any age, and how to integrate simple exercises into your daily routine.
