In this episode, we explore the challenges and opportunities that midlife brings, focusing on how setbacks like divorce, empty nesting, or career changes can be turned into periods of transformation and growth. When our guests Joey and Lucy (hosts of the popular podcast Sweaty AF, met in a small London sauna five years ago, they were both going through the darkest chapters of their lives. Divorce proceedings, sleepless nights, hormone chaos, and that crushing feeling that their bodies had completely betrayed them. What happened next in that tiny, three-person sauna changed everything.

This is the raw, honest story of how two women discovered that healing happens when you're willing to sit with discomfort – literally and figuratively. From averaging just 2-3 hours of sleep per night to building thriving businesses, transforming their relationships with their ex-husbands, and creating a community that spans continents, Joey and Lucy prove that midlife isn't about decline – it's about renaissance.

They delve into the benefits of hot and cold therapy, the importance of sleep, the value of walking and natural daylight, and how creating a supportive community can lead to an overall 'glow up'. If you're feeling stuck, isolated, or like your best years are behind you, this conversation will remind you that healing and friendship can happen anywhere – even in a sweaty box with strangers who become your closest confidants.

Is the sun actually the ultimate anti-aging medicine they’ve been trying to keep from us? While we've been scared away from sunlight for decades, groundbreaking research reveals that specific light wavelengths might be the key to reversing the hallmarks of aging at a cellular level. But that expensive red light device you bought might be nothing more than a colorful lamp with zero therapeutic benefits. With the explosion of light therapy products flooding the market, how can you tell which actually deliver cellular transformation?

Natalie Jill welcomes back Sunlighten founder Connie Zack to cut through the misinformation around the red light therapy trend. You'll discover why most consumer devices completely miss the mark—including why visible red light alone is insufficient and how specific frequencies (660nm for red light and 880nm for near infrared) are essential for therapeutic effects.

Connie explains the crucial difference between mere heat therapy and cellular light medicine, revealing how proper infrared creates a "vibrational molecular activation" that makes water molecules dance inside your cells. She dispels the common misconception that hotter is better, proving that temperature is completely irrelevant for results—the benefits start the moment you turn on an effective device.

Learn how different light wavelengths affect your body – how far, mid, near infrared, and red light each target different biological systems. The conversation tackles how infrared therapy combats five major hallmarks of aging - addressing everything from zombie cells and inflammation to mitochondrial health and gut function. 

Whether you're dealing with hormone-related mood changes, energy dips, or skin concerns, this episode offers practical insights for incorporating light therapy into your wellness routine. Natalie shares her personal experience using infrared therapy to instantly transform her mood, energy, and recovery - calling it the one age-optimization tool she wouldn't live without.

What happens when a lifelong vegan doctor realizes her "healthy" diet might actually be undermining her health and identity? Dr. Aimie Apigian spent over 30 years believing veganism was the pinnacle of healthy eating—until her midlife body had other plans. She shares her dramatic transformation from being a devoted vegan to becoming a full carnivore, challenging everything we think we know about optimal nutrition for women over 40.

Discover why this board-certified physician secretly ate her first fish on vacation, how a collarbone injury revealed decades of suppressed symptoms, and the surprising genetic factor that explained why her plant-based diet wasn't serving her body. Dr. Aimie breaks down the science behind protein absorption, methylation imbalances, and why quality matters more than food category when it comes to midlife nutrition.

This isn't about promoting any single diet—it's about becoming your own health detective and learning to listen to what your body truly needs, even when it challenges your deepest beliefs about food and identity.

Choking down protein and still not seeing results? Your protein powder could actually be working AGAINST you after 40! What if everything you've been told about protein supplementation is completely wrong for midlife women? In this eye-opening episode, Natalie Jill interviews Angelo Keely, Co-Founder and CEO of Kion and renowned protein science expert, who reveals that after age 40, our bodies become increasingly resistant to the muscle-building effects of traditional protein. 

The shocking truth: essential amino acids (EAA) become 4-6 times more effective than protein powder as we age, yet most women are wasting money on supplements that don't work—or worse, could be accelerating muscle loss. Taking EAAs can be a total game-changer for those aiming to lose fat while maintaining muscle mass. Learn why maintaining muscle becomes nearly impossible during weight loss without the right amino acid strategy and the science behind why the timing of your protein matters dramatically more after midlife. 

If you're struggling with stubborn weight gain, muscle loss, or fatigue despite "eating more protein" this conversation uncovers the missing nutritional piece that could transform your midlife body.

Mushroom coffee: you've seen the posts and heard the buzz, but what exactly is mushroom coffee and why are so many people, including me, raving about it? Joining me is the always insightful Wade Lightheart from BIOptimizers, who breaks down everything you need to know about the mushroom coffee hype. Wade explains why therapeutic doses of medicinal mushrooms—like lion's mane, reishi, cordyceps, and chaga—can offer incredible health benefits and can transform your mental clarity without needing stimulants like coffee. We'll cover how these mushrooms can boost energy, clear brain fog, and improve cognitive function, especially for women in midlife. Wade shares his personal experiences with cognitive decline and how medicinal mushrooms helped him regain his mental sharpness. We also discuss the challenges with current mushroom supplements, why most fail to deliver results, how to ensure you're getting a potent and effective dose, and why combining these mushrooms with coffee might actually NOT be the best indicator of their benefits. If you're struggling with memory issues, brain fog, or midlife hormonal changes affecting your thinking, this conversation unveils a natural solution that could help you regain the sharp, focused mind you thought was gone forever.

Have toxic skin care myths been keeping the most powerful anti-aging element from us?! In this eye-opening episode Steve Revelli, head scientist at Silver Biotics, shares the surprising truth behind silver in skincare and wellness products. Most of us think of silver as jewelry or something that tarnishes, but this misunderstood element has powerful antimicrobial properties that can transform your approach to skincare, wound healing, and muscle recovery. 

Steve explains how silver has been used for millennia to fight pathogens and why it fell out of favor due to misclassification as a heavy metal. Learn how proper silver formulations target harmful bacteria, yeast, and mold without disrupting beneficial microorganisms—unlike harsh chemical antimicrobials that destroy everything and potentially disrupt hormones. We explore the pressing concerns about toxic ingredients in skincare products, why many natural alternatives seem to fall short in delivering expected results, and why silver is showing promising results for aging skin, faster wound healing with less scarring, and enhanced muscle recovery after workouts.
