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.

Customer Reviews
Useful and uplifting
I’ve been on a deep dive into my health and ageing well, for over a year now and have gotten a lot from some great books & 40+ women’s wellbeing resources so I didn’t think this would add a lot of value but I’ve not only deeply enjoyed the content (which mirrors the great wholistic health & well being shared in many of the more research & scientific based resources I’ve been listening to) I’ve also gained lots of great new tips, info & inspiration. Shelly frequently asks the questions I’m curious about myself. Absolutely fantastic!
The aging project is amazing
It’s fantastic! Thanks Shelly for sharing these amazing people and stories! ❤️
Great but need more Australian Dr interviewed
Love the podcast but it would be great if you had more Australia Dr on instead of overseas, we can’t buy the products they recommend here in Australia, even asking your Dr they say we don’t have that in Australia!!!
