How much power do we have over how we age? Turns out—quite a lot.

In this inspiring conversation, Barry welcomes Maddy Dychtwald, co-founder of Age Wave and author of Ageless Aging: A Woman’s Guide to Increasing Health Span, Brain Span, and Lifespan. Together, they dive into the myths and breakthroughs of modern aging, from the overlooked gender gap in health research to the simple yet powerful tools we can all use to thrive in later life.

We explore how a positive mindset can add years to your life, why movement (not just exercise) is essential, and how focusing on strength, sleep, and nutrition can profoundly impact your health and happiness. Maddy also sheds light on the importance of specialized menopause care and the latest discoveries in epigenetics that show how our lifestyle choices can turn our genes on and off.

Learn why aging is not a decline, but an evolution—and why it's never too early or too late to start living vibrantly.
