  • When Life Changes Overnight: Brooke Campbell Bayes on living with Chronic Illness
    Today’s conversation might just shift the way you see the world — and the people in it. Because chronic illness isn’t rare. It’s everywhere. It’s the invisible battle so many people are fighting — quietly, bravely — while going about their everyday lives. And when it strikes, it doesn’t just touch the body. It reshapes everything: careers, relationships, dreams, even how you move through a single day. The truth is, most of us are already connected to chronic illness — either living with it ourselves, or loving someone who is. But we don’t often stop to talk about what that really feels like — or what it truly takes to keep showing up. Today, we’re opening that conversation with Brooke Campbell Bayes — whose life changed overnight, from healthy one day to a diagnosis she never saw coming..

  • No Two Brains Are the Same with Dr. Charlie Teo
    In this powerful and eye-opening episode, world-renowned neurosurgeon Dr. Charlie Teo joins us to explore the most complex and misunderstood organ in the human body: the brain. From memory and movement to emotion and decision-making, our brains are truly super-computers—yet most of us know shockingly little about how to protect them. Dr. Teo sheds light on the current brain health crisis, revealing that dementia is now the leading cause of death for Australian women, and delves into the hidden dangers of traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)—often overlooked but with life-altering consequences. We explore how everyday habits—like chronic stress, screen time, poor diet, and social isolation—are quietly damaging our brain function. Dr. Teo also introduces Cingulum Health, his innovative brain clinic, offering cutting-edge tools like fMRI assessments and TMS therapy to personalise and transform brain care. Plus, we hear inspiring recovery stories about Owen Wright and others reminding us that healing is possible with cutting eyes software from Omniscent Key Takeaways: Brain health is in crisis—but it's not too late to act. TBIs can be subtle yet have long-term effects on mood, memory, and cognition. Daily lifestyle choices play a significant role in brain function and longevity. Cingulum Health is pioneering personalised brain care with impressive results. The future of medicine is brain-focused, proactive, and tailored to the individual. 🎧 This episode is a must-listen for anyone who wants to be proactive and take control of their brain health.

About The Aging Project

Aging. Everyone’s doing it, right? And it’s a hell of a lot better than the alternative. So why is it so often portrayed as something for women to fear and fight, rather than embrace and celebrate? The Aging Project is proud to present this trail-blazing podcast series that flips the bird to the notion that women in their forties and above should be either slowly fading into the background, or in a constant battle to look younger. We want to show you how we can all choose to age fabulously and without apology, and to own our age with pride - with great health, style and vitality. Hosted by Shelley Craft, the first season of The Aging Project podcast features candid, no-holds-barred interviews with twelve of the world’s leading and most inspiring minds in the field of aging well. Join Shelley as she discovers how everything from nutrition to meditation, style to gut health (and lots more!), can not only positively impact our journey into middle-life and beyond, but help make it the best time of our lives. We’re all in this together, ladies - let’s learn how to do it WELL.
