  • Weight Loss Medication: What you NEED to know with Lynsey Koch
    Weight after 40 can feel like an uphill battle. Hormones shift, metabolism slows, and what worked in our 20s simply doesn’t cut it anymore. In this episode, we dive deep into the role of weight loss medications — including GLP-1s like Mounjaro and Ozempic — and what women over 40 need to know before considering them. We explore how these medications actually work in the body, who they’re designed for, and the risks and side effects that often get overlooked. Just as importantly, we discuss why medication alone isn’t the answer — and how nutrition, and strength training must be part of the bigger picture for lasting results. This is a no-nonsense conversation that strips away hype and confusion, giving you the science and strategy to make informed choices. If you’ve felt stuck, frustrated, or tired of guessing, this episode offers clarity on how medications can fit into a safe, sustainable plan for women over 40. 👉 Ready to separate the facts from the fads?

  • Next of Kin with Casey Beros
    Caring for someone you love is one of the hardest — and most profoundly human — experiences we will ever face. And yet, most of us arrive at that moment unprepared, overwhelmed, and often deeply alone. In this episode we sit down with journalist, author, and health communicator Casey Beros, whose book Next of Kin shines a light on what it really means to step into the role of carer. Drawing from her own experience caring for her dad, Casey shares the raw truths of navigating a complex health system, surviving the emotional rollercoaster of care, and finding love and meaning in the midst of loss. We explore: ✨ Why caring, grieving, and loving are some of the hardest — and most important — human acts ✨ The hidden weight carers carry, from burnout to the “love drug” that keeps them going ✨ Practical ways families can navigate medical, legal, and financial challenges ✨ How grief can transform into meaning — and why conversations about death can be some of the most life-affirming we’ll ever have. This conversation is for anyone who has cared, is caring, or one day will care for someone they love. It’s a powerful reminder that while none of us can avoid loss, we can choose how we meet it — with courage, compassion, and connection. Tune in and let Casey’s story remind you: you are not alone. 💜 👉 Grab Next of Kin: Buy the Book https://www.amazon.com.au/Next-Kin-Expect-Expecting-Someone/dp/1394337973 👉 Connect with Casey https://www.caseyberos.com/ https://www.instagram.com/caseyberos/ 👉 Join our FREE DNA webinar to learn more about The Fitgenes Program—register now to begin your DNA Discovery. https://theagingproject.com/fitgenes-webinar/ or Join The Program here: https://theagingproject.com/offer/ 👉 Shop our favourite skincare and supplement at our sister platform: www.youmusttryit.com

  • A grown ups GAP YEAR with Monique Van Tulder
    At 54, exhausted and running on empty, Monique van Tulder did something radical — she walked away from the life that was draining her. What started as a small step — changing lightbulbs in another house — turned into five months of solitude, adventure, and self-discovery. She calls it A Grown Up’s Gap Year. In this conversation, Monique shares the truth so many women over 50 will recognise: years of putting everyone else first, of pushing through fatigue and health scares, of saying yes when they wanted to say no. Her story begins not with adventure, but with depletion — thyroid cancer, low iron, invisible burnout — and a quiet longing to feel like herself again. What followed was a journey that was both terrifying and exhilarating: arriving alone in a silent Austrian village, leaping off cliffs to prove she still had courage, and slowly rediscovering joy, creativity, and her own voice. She came home renewed, lighter, and ready to name herself Project Fabulous Woman — a reminder that her own health, joy, and worth matter too. This episode is not just about leaving home. It’s about permission. Monique reframes midlife and shows how any woman, anywhere, can create her own version of a gap year. Even fifteen minutes a day can be the spark of transformation. Whether you’re feeling burnt out, invisible, or simply craving something more, Monique’s story is a powerful reminder: midlife is not the end of the story. It’s the perfect season to begin again. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: Why women so often hit burnout in midlife — and how to recognise the signs. How Monique turned a small act of escape into a life-changing adventure. The role of fear, courage, and joy in rediscovering yourself. What it means to become your own “Project Fabulous Woman.” Simple tools like “Kind Starts” and mini gap years you can use right now.

  • The Future of Cancer Care Has Arrived with Professor David Thomas
    Cancer. It’s a word that stops us in our tracks — bringing fear, grief, or uncertainty depending on our own story. And as we age, that word carries even more weight. Despite decades of research, cancer still feels mysterious to many of us, and the “one-size-fits-all” treatments of the past haven’t been enough. That’s why this episode is so important. We sit down with Professor David Thomas — one of the world’s leading “cancer detectives,” the driving force behind Omico and Australia’s largest cancer genomics programs. His vision? To make personalised cancer treatment the standard of care for every patient, not just the lucky few. In this conversation, we go beyond the scary headlines and talk about the future of cancer care — from breakthrough genomic trials to real stories of hope — and what you can do today to reduce your own risk. 📌 Take Action Today: Book your free bowel cancer screening kit (45+) Book your breast scan (40+ women) Learn about Australia’s new Lung Cancer Screening Program (50–70 with smoking history) If cancer has ever touched your life, or even just crossed your mind, this is an episode you won’t want to miss. 👉 Join our FREE DNA webinar to learn more about The Fitgenes Program—register now to begin your DNA Discovery. https://theagingproject.com/fitgenes-webinar/ or Join The Program here: https://theagingproject.com/offer/ 👉 Shop our favourite skincare and supplement at our sister platform: www.youmusttryit.com

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.
