Welcome To The Modern Aging Podcast! If you are over 40 and are looking to optimize and elevate your health and well-being in holistic and innovative ways, then this is the podcast for you! Each week, we will share interviews with top experts in holistic health, wealth, body, mind and spirit. As an integrative health coach and avid traveler, I will share my findings with you and provide insightful tips on how we can live better and longer after 40.
My mom had a massive stroke at 65 in 2001 and then developed Parkinson's Disease 10 years later. My dad was diagnosed with frontal temporal dementia in 2016. After caring for them for almost 20 years, I decided that this was not how I wanted to age so I started searching for different approaches to health.
What I discovered is a treasure trove of endless holistic ways to approach our health and well-being that is better for us and the planet. It is proactive instead of reactive. It is taking care of our whole being, not just treating what is causing us pain. We have to look at our relationships, stress levels, work, family life, the whole kit n kaboodle as well as our nutrition and exercise. This is whole health living. We all want to grow old, but I think we can agree that we want to grow older and retain a healthy lifestyle, independence, and a high quality of life. That lifestyle starts today. So, join me every Friday.
If you prefer video, many of the interviews were episodes on our YouTube Channel so you can check them out here - https://www.youtube.com/c/ModernAging.

Épisode 107
vendredi 5 mai 2023 • Durée 40:16
Are you suffering from chronic pain or anxiety? Living with chronic pain or anxiety can be debilitating. It can make even the simplest tasks seem overwhelming and exhausting. The constant pain that doesn't go away can prevent you from living your best life, rob you of joy and take away precious moments.
If you're among the many who suffer from chronic pain, fortunately there is hope. CBD has been proven to effectively relieve pelvic pain, menstrual cramps, and lower back pain by targeting your endocannabinoid system as an anti-inflammatory. This means it can provide relief from wherever in the body you may be suffering. Plus, unlike other pain-relieving solutions, CBD comes with no harmful side effects.
In this episode, Meredith Bieri shares her journey of finding relief from chronic pain. For seven years, she suffered without a proper diagnosis and relied on a cocktail of pharmaceutical medications and painkillers. However, after discovering CBD tinctures, pain patches, oils, and topicals - she finally found relief with no side effects.

Caring for an aging parent can be a daunting task, especially when they have a chronic illness.

Episode 95 - Protect Your Ears - Reduce Your Risk of Tinnitus and Hearing Loss with Dr. Ben Thompson
Épisode 95
vendredi 10 février 2023 • Durée 29:05
Do you or someone you know suffer from Tinnitus, otherwise known as that annoying constant ringing in the ear? What about hearing loss? Hearing matters to all of us, and its loss can be devastating as it can change our quality of life. When we lose our hearing, we are more likely to detract from social engagement and communication. We also are more likely to isolate ourselves from conversations, miss certain words and meanings, and less likely to engage in family gatherings because we can’t hear or are struggling to hear what people are saying.
Social isolation is linked to an increased risk of cognitive decline and dementia. Connecting with our family, friends and community is beneficial for our brains as it helps to keep our minds active and prevents atrophy. Without regular social or mental stimulation, our brains can start to lose their connections.
Taking care of our ears has a direct impact on the health of our brains. When we treat hearing loss, it can restore our communication functions, allowing us to stay socially engaged and active. This helps us maintain cognitive function and prevent dementia as we age. Ear health is the key to social engagement and a better quality of life.
In this episode, Dr. Ben Thompson, audiologist and founder of Treble Heath, provides useful insight on the causes of Tinnitus and hearing loss, as well as how to prevent it. He also shares the possible connections between hearing loss and dementia or Alzheimer's Disease and what steps we can take to reduce the risk of these illnesses. Having more knowledge will help us better prepare for any potential health issues that come our way.

Episode 94 - Unlock the Benefits of Mushrooms to Support Immune System and Healthy Aging with Nicole Pressly Wolf
Épisode 94
vendredi 3 février 2023 • Durée 24:13
When we want to take proactive steps to maintain our health and well-being, medicinal mushrooms can be a part of an ideal solution. Not only are they free of the side effects common with pharmaceutical drugs, but when combined with medications, mushrooms can help strengthen your immune system and restore balance in your body. A balanced body is less prone to disease and infection.
Mushrooms are a great way to take advantage of their medicinal benefits, as they contain antioxidants, anti-inflammatories, antibacterials, and other compounds that benefit your health. However, it is recommended that you buy organic mushrooms when possible; this will make sure they have not been exposed to any pesticides or chemicals that can alter the quality of their compounds. Medicinal mushrooms can be taken in many forms such as powder for teas or extracts capsule, powdered extracts, or tinctures.
In this episode, founder of West Wolf Medicinals Nicole Pressly Wolf explains the many benefits of adding mushrooms to your daily supplement routine. She suggests including varieties like Chaga, Lion's Mane, Cordyceps, Shiitake, Turkey Tail and Reishi to help promote healthy aging and overall well-being by supporting your immune system.

About Nicole Pressly Wolf -
Raised as a city girl and a lifelong environmental activist, journalist, and secret science nerd, Nicole never imagined she could farm or care directly for the earth beyond her written activism. Moving west, she wanted her next “career” to be intentional work in a practical and tactile environment, not in front of a computer. Oh, and yeah — for the benefit of all.
Now, with America's fungi awakening, Nicole has found her true way forward. Since the move, she has become fascinated with mushrooms and devoured books, films, and teachings. She attended numerous mushroom-growing workshops. Nicole started a daily supplement of powdered mushrooms looking for support with all that comes with aging, from brain power to general energy. Within weeks she noticed her memory had improved, and her energy was up. She was hooked! All that she has learned about the fungi kingdom inspires awe and wonder. Farming mushrooms and creating a permaculture farm has allowed her to offer health to her family, community, and the planet.

Coach Tina is a Fit at 50 coach, creator of the 4S Formula to help mid-life women get stronger & leaner, and Founder of Iron Strong Fitness. Through her one-on-one coaching and online group fitness classes, she trains women over 40 and teaches them how to take control of their bodies by getting stronger and training consistently.
Tina got into fitness super late…age 42! Before that, she was a Wall Street trader, jewelry designer/business owner. At age 40, she went through some unplanned life changes — a difficult divorce and the post-financial crisis economy that pushed her to close her jewelry stores.
During that crappy time and for the first time in her life, she turned to working out as her dependable constant. She was going to the gym and taking strength group fitness classes. That was her FIRST foray into strength training.
Since starting as a trainer at the age of 42, she has coached over 3,700 sessions, trained herself to her first pull-up to hit a personal record of 14 pull ups (at the age of 49!), and passed a grueling kettlebell coach exam where she snatched (exercise that brings a kettlebell from between the legs to overhead) 36 lbs 100 times within 5 minutes! Strength is her jam.
Her proudest achievements include coaching some of her female clients to their first pull ups and competing in their first powerlifting competitions. She has a deep understanding of the needs and physical experiences of middle aged women.

About Christina Lopes -
Christina Lopes, DPT, MPH, spent a decade working as a neuropediatric clinician before becoming a life coach, spiritual teacher, author, and entrepreneur. In 2013, she experienced a profound spiritual awakening, followed by 4 years of solitude and deep meditation training. In those years, Christina experienced her spiritual awakening with “science eyes,” opened her severely blocked heart, and healed from significant childhood trauma.
Today, she seamlessly bridges science and spirituality to help others heal from significant trauma, open their hearts, and live fulfilling lives. She is also committed to making spirituality more measurable and down-to-earth for the average person. Christina’s unique coaching style includes a focus on the heart as the primary driver of healing and transformation instead of the mind. Through her heart-centered coaching approach, Christina assists others in achieving their fullest potential, living with deep purpose, creating massive impact in the world, and doing all this with joy and happiness.
Christina’s 16-year career is multifaceted and spans exercise science, wellness, fitness, nutrition, neuropediatrics, mindfulness, energy medicine, life coaching, neuroscience, and spirituality. She’s been a life coach and spiritual teacher since 2014, working with hundreds of clients from all over the world, especially through her immersive premium coaching program (Heart Alchemy) and her intensive individual retreats (Heart Accelerator). Christina holds a Doctorate Degree in Physical Therapy from New York University and a Master’s Degree in Public Health from Johns Hopkins University.
