Apple Cider Vinegar on Netflix has caused the resumption of a conversation that we first had on Episode 105 nearly 10 years ago.

The perception of wellness is taking a beating, and it’s all down to the behaviour of a few. In the latest instalment of the issue is Netflix’s mini series Apple Cider Vinegar, which is covering the Belle Gibson story along with the late Jess Ainscough.

Some find it unsavoury to watch, some finds it has no ethical backbone, some find it compelling viewing and can’t keep their eyes off it.

You be the judge – we would love your thoughts.

Episode 105 is here.

EUROPEAN LONGEVITY EXPERIENCE 2025

This episode proudly brought to you by our Longevity Experiences to the Greek island Blue Zone of Ikaria and the Italian island Blue Zone of Sardinia.

To find out all about our trips and whether you would like to be part of the small group that comes along, go to www.100notout.com

When Roger Bannister ran a sub 4-minute mile for the first time in 1954, he did what no one on planet earth had ever done before. No one believed it was possible.

And interestingly, as soon as he achieved it, running a sub 4-minute mile became suddenly achievable. His record lasted just 46 days. Today, the world record is 3 minutes 43 seconds.

So, when Damo almost cracked the 4-minute mile equivalent in his golf game recently, it spurred this conversation around our longevity beliefs.

Not many of us have sub 4-minute mile parents or mentors that show us that mastering the ageing process is possible. Not many of us believe that we can do ageing well.

But perhaps more importantly than ever, whilst longevity is now extremely common in most developed nations, very few of society believe that they can “run it under 4 minutes”, aka do it exceptionally well.

And now to today’s conversation. 

There’s a new term in the longevity space and it’s “Strengthspan”. 

Today we’re thrilled to have Tuire Karaharju-Huisman with us to talk all things Strengthspan and Positive Ageing. Tuire is a highly experienced physiotherapist and exercise physiologist whose career has spanned multiple continents and diverse areas of research and clinical practice.

Originally from Finland and now living in Melbourne, Tuire has spent over a decade as an academic lecturer and today is the Research Lead at HUR Australia where she now designs exercise programs and educates both staff and community members in aged care and beyond.

We mention a number of cool resources on this episode –

May you continue making the rest of your life the best of your life!

Damo has reconnected with an old friend, and it’s prompted this conversation on the importance of picking up the phone and calling those people you haven’t spoken to in years.

From bridal party members to school friends and former colleagues, there is great joy in reconnecting with people we once enjoyed so many good times with.

Life gets busy, people move and circumstances change, but the connection of times gone by always remains … and it’s fabulous for ones longevity when meaningful social connections exist.

BLUE ZONES LONGEVITY EXPERIENCE

There’s plenty of connection and good times during our Longevity Experiences to Ikaria and Sardinia. If you would like to apply to join us go to www.100notout.com

The inconvenient truth when it comes to ageing well is that it’s not our strengths that carry us into longevity well, but the strength of our weaknesses.

Think about that for a moment.

Poor health is what brings most people undone – that’s a weakness.

Poor wealth can create relative poverty – that’s a weakness.

A poor social life can lead to loneliness, which can lead to depression, which can lead to dementia – that’s a weakness.

In this episode we share our own weaknesses and discuss the importance of making them a priority – and a strength – as we navigate 2025 and beyond.

LONGEVITY EXPERIENCES 2025 – BLUE ZONES OF IKARIA AND SARDINIA

We are thrilled to be returning to the two European Blue Zones in 2025. Our 10-day Longevity Experience in Ikaria is taking place for the sixth time – August 22-31. We then go to Sardinia for 10 Days from September 2-11.

Happy New Year and welcome to our first episode of 2025!

Damo has been moving for 5+ hours per day in a very simple manner … and it’s got his muscles aching, but more importantly, his fulfilment levels are sky high.

With a combination of social, spiritual, and movement – we use Damo’s recent volunteering efforts at the Australian Open golf event as an example of what a wise health outcome in 2025 looks like.

Keep it simple – make it something you love to do – and if appropriate, be around people who allow you to be the best version of you!

Here’s to an incredible 2025!
