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.

  1. EPISODE 137

    Live within your genetic boundary with Dr Sam Shay

    Today’s episode is about something powerful — and often misunderstood. Your genetics. Not as a prediction of your future… But as the playing field you’re working in. Because the truth is this: Many of us spend years guessing when it comes to our health.  Trying different diets. Different supplements. Different routines. Hoping something works. Something helps.  But what if you could understand how your body is wired from the start? Today we’re joined by Dr Sam Shay — a functional medicine expert, speaker, and self-described “friendly lab nerd.” His work is deeply personal. After struggling for years with chronic fatigue, insomnia, digestive issues, sugar addiction and anxiety that began in childhood, Sam turned his own healing journey into a lifelong mission. Today, with more than 25 years of experience in nutrition science, mind-body medicine and genetic analysis, he helps people build health strategies based on something far more powerful than guesswork: their unique biology. Dr Sam is also the lead trainer for Fitgenes based the United States, helping practitioners around the world understand how to translate DNA insights into real-life health strategies. For many Australians genetics is still a new idea. But as you’ll hear today, understanding your DNA doesn’t limit you. It does something much more useful. It helps you understand: • your genetic boundaries • your genetic strengths • and the playing field your body is working within So you can stop chasing every new health trend… …and start focusing on the things that actually matter for you. And your body.  This conversation will help you see genetics differently. Not as destiny. But as information you can use to make better choices for your body, your energy, and your future health.
