10/29/2025
Movement is medicine for all of us, but its power is crystalized by its impact on the progression of the neurodegenerative Parkinson's Disease. In this conversation, fitness instructor Ashley Grieb and Kathleen Featherston—who lives with Parkinson's—reveal how consistent group exercise doesn't just build physical strength, it actively slows disease progression, supports brain health, and creates life-sustaining community connections. You'll discover why showing up matters more than perfection, how early Parkinson's symptoms often hide for years, and why moving your body is one of the most powerful tools for fighting chronic illness.

298. Counteracting Limiting Beliefs, Ageism + Anxiety with Walker/Podcaster/Ageism Fighter Ande Lyons at Age 69

9/17/2025
Walking transformed anxiety into vitality for 69-year-old entrepreneur Ande Lyons, who discovered from a book-on-cassette that 35 minutes daily helped manage her symptoms and eventually led to her current six-mile routine despite facing osteoporosis. Ande argues that movement is a privilege rather than a chore, and that community connections matter more than almost anything else for healthy aging, while encouraging people to "take center stage" instead of becoming invisible as they age. Her journey from hiding her age in the startup world to becoming a pro-aging advocate demonstrates how shifting from apathy to action can redefine what thriving looks like in our later decades.
