    The Myth of “Just Aging”: Menopause, Pain, and a New Approach to Healing | Stacey Roberts, PT, RN Ep. 401

    Is pain in midlife really inevitable—or have we simply been taught to accept it? In this episode of The Aging Well Podcast, Dr. Jeff Armstrong sits down with Stacey Roberts, PT, RN, MSN—musculoskeletal specialist, pelvic health expert, and author of The Pain Free Formula—to challenge one of the most pervasive narratives in women’s health: that pain, brain fog, and physical decline are just “part of aging.” With over 30 years of clinical experience, Stacey offers a radically different perspective. She explains how hormonal shifts during perimenopause and menopause can disrupt the body’s balance, contributing to joint pain, muscle dysfunction, reduced mobility, and even changes in intimacy. But rather than masking symptoms with medications or resigning to decline, Stacey outlines a path toward restoring function—naturally. Together, we explore the overlooked connections between hormones, musculoskeletal health, and pelvic function—and why so many women are misdiagnosed, dismissed, or under-treated during this stage of life. This conversation is both empowering and practical, offering a roadmap for women—and the clinicians who serve them—to rethink what aging can look like.

    Transformative Aging — 400 Episodes of Wisdom, Purpose, and Becoming Whole | The Aging well Podcast | Ep. 400

    Episode 400 marks a major milestone for The Aging Well Podcast—and an opportunity to reflect on what we’ve learned from hundreds of conversations with leading experts in health, longevity, mindset, and purpose. In this special episode, Dr. Jeff Armstrong and co-host Corbin Bruton explore the evolution from simply “aging well” to embracing transformative aging—a deeper, more intentional approach to how we grow older. They revisit powerful ideas from past guests, including concepts like “pace of aging,” “purposeful social engagement,” “joyspan,” and the challenge of becoming “comfortable being uncomfortable.” This conversation also connects the physical, psychological, and spiritual dimensions of aging, highlighting the role of the SPIES model and the emerging idea of the “transcendent self.” If you’ve ever wondered what it really means to not just live longer—but to live better, fuller, and more meaningfully—this episode brings together 400 episodes of wisdom into one powerful reflection.

    Why Healthcare Waits for Crisis| Fixing the System Before It Fails Us | Dr. Jill Schwartz-Chevlin | Ep. 399

    Why does the U.S. healthcare system often wait until patients are in crisis before stepping in? In this episode of The Aging Well Podcast, Dr. Jeff Armstrong ais joined by Dr. Jill Schwartz-Chevlin, Chief Medical Officer at Vynca, to unpack one of the most overlooked flaws in modern medicine: crisis-driven care. Drawing on decades of experience in palliative care, population health, and home-based medicine, Dr. Schwartz-Chevlin explains why this pattern isn’t about patient behavior—it’s a system design problem. She breaks down how misaligned incentives, fragmented care, and a lack of proactive planning push patients toward emergency rooms, unwanted interventions, and avoidable suffering. This conversation goes beyond critique to offer solutions. From simple but powerful conversations that reduce hospitalizations to the role of predictive analytics in identifying at-risk patients earlier, this episode reframes what it means to truly care for people as they age. If you’ve ever wondered how we can move from reactive sick care to proactive, person-centered health, this episode is a must-listen.

    Can We Measure the Mind? The Future of Brain Health, Data, and Longevity | Nawal Roy |

    What if we could measure mental health as precisely as we measure blood pressure or cholesterol? In this episode, Dr. Jeff Armstrong sits down with Nawal Roy, founder and CEO of Holmusk, to explore how data and technology are transforming the way we understand brain health. With over 970 million people worldwide affected by mental and behavioral health conditions, the current system still relies heavily on trial and error. Nawal and his team are working to change that—building one of the world’s largest real-world evidence platforms to bring objective measurement, predictive insight, and personalization to mental healthcare. Together, we explore the future of brain health as a measurable, trackable component of longevity—and what it means for prevention, performance, and aging well.

    Beyond Bone Density--What Actually Prevents Fractures as You Age | Dr John Neustadt | Ep. 397

    Most people think strong bones are defined by a single number: bone density. But what if that number is only telling part of the story? In this episode, Dr. Jeff Armstrong sits down with Dr. John Neustadt for a second conversation centered on his latest work in bone health and fracture prevention. Together, they unpack a critical distinction—bone density versus bone strength—and why focusing solely on scan results may leave many people at risk. Dr. Neustadt brings a research-driven perspective to the overlooked factors that truly determine fracture risk, including medications, nutrient status, fall risk, and even gut health. This conversation expands the lens on osteoporosis beyond postmenopausal women and into a broader, more actionable understanding of lifelong skeletal health. If the goal is not just to improve numbers, but to prevent fractures and maintain independence, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.

    Many people do the hard work of healing their past—yet still feel stuck, unfulfilled, or uncertain about what comes next.

Best known for Conscious Uncoupling, Katherine returns with her newest book, What’s True About You: 7 Steps to Move Beyond Your Painful Past and Manifest Your Brightest Future. In this conversation, she shares a clear, practical framework for moving beyond simply repairing old wounds and into actively generating a life of meaning, purpose, and vitality—particularly relevant in midlife and later adulthood. This episode speaks to anyone navigating life transitions, reimagining identity after loss or change, or seeking not just relief from the past, but a compelling vision for the future.

Katherine touched so many lives through her work, her writing, and the way she showed up—with honesty, compassion, and a deep belief in what is possible for each of us. Through Calling in “The One,” Conscious Uncoupling, and her most recent book, What’s True About You, she supported hundreds of thousands of people around the world in returning to their true selves and creating a future rooted in truth, possibility, and love. She cared deeply not only about her community but also about the world at large and was devoted to seeing and supporting the goodness and potential in each person and who they were becoming. Her legacy lives on in the lives she touched and in the love, growth, and truth she inspired.

    Longevity Rapid Fire with Dr. Matt Kaeberlein: Hype, Hope, and What Actually Works | Ep. 395

    The longevity space is exploding—with new drugs, supplements, influencers, and bold promises appearing almost daily. But what actually holds up under scientific scrutiny? In this rapid-fire return to The Aging Well Podcast, Dr. Jeff Armstrong welcomes back Dr. Matt Kaeberlein, one of the world’s leading researchers in the biology of aging. Together, they move quickly through a curated list of popular longevity drugs and supplements—asking what works, what’s overhyped, what’s promising but premature, and what may carry real risk. They also discuss how to evaluate so-called “longevity experts,” how to think about evidence in an emerging field, and what Dr. Kaeberlein is personally doing right now to optimize his own healthspan. The episode closes with a thoughtful conversation on psilocybin—where it may fit in mental health, and whether it has any legitimate role in longevity science. This is a clear-eyed, intellectually honest tour through the modern longevity landscape.

    Artificial Sweeteners and Cognitive Decline: Are Sugar Substitutes Sabotaging Brain Health? | Ep. 394

    Are artificial sweeteners helping us age well—or quietly working against our brain health? In this episode of The Aging Well Podcast, Jeff and Corbin unpack new research linking popular sugar substitutes to accelerated cognitive decline. While artificial sweeteners are often marketed as healthier alternatives to sugar, emerging evidence suggests the story may be more complex—especially for midlife and older adults concerned about dementia risk. Together, they explore the science behind the study, the broader metabolic and neurological implications of artificial sweeteners, and whether “natural” alternatives like honey, maple syrup, or stevia truly offer an advantage. This episode offers a balanced, science-based discussion to help listeners make informed decisions about sweeteners and long-term brain health.
