The Aging Project

Does aging well mean changing our relationship with alcohol and social drinking? with Darin Olien


Listen Later

To say Darin Olien is passionate about health and wellness would be an understatement. As a tireless advocate for healthy living with a long, successful career in the wellness space, Darin’s message is powerful. He’s the author of ‘Superlife – the five fixes that will keep you healthy, fit, and eternally awesome’, and is working on his second book, ‘Fatal Conveniences’. He hosts the juggernaut podcast, ‘The Darin Olien Show’, and co-hosts the Emmy Award Winning docu-series ‘Down To Earth’ with Zac Efron. He also hasn’t touched a drop of alcohol since his early twenties – a decision he believes has helped him live such a big life.

We knew he was the perfect person to speak to about the impact of drinking on our aging journey, and we’re so excited to have Darin on the show. 

Join Shelley for episode #1 of Season Two of The Aging Project Podcast, as she chats to Darin about:

  • How a hangover changed his life forever

  • The question he asked himself about drinking alcohol that we should all ask ourselves
  • How giving up alcohol can give you more momentum and connect you to your potential
  • The importance of a supportive network when you make changes to your drinking habits
  • Why letting go of other people’s expectations and tuning in to your intuition can make lifestyle changes easier and more transformative than you think
  • How science is showing that even moderate drinking has an alarming effect on our health and physiology
  • His top tips for challenging our relationship with alcohol and how to navigate making changes
  • The Aging Project is on a mission to discover and share the secrets to aging well, and to empower you to make great choices for your health and wellbeing in your forties and beyond. Hosted by Shelley Craft, The Aging Project Podcast will introduce you to the leading minds in the field of aging fabulously. Her insightful interviews will inspire you to take middle age by the horns and make it the best time of your life!
