The Experts w/ Dr Jenelle Kim

Why Women Get Stronger After 40 | Longevity, Strength & Mindset w/ Emma Post


Listen Later

In this episode of The Experts Podcast, Dr. Jenelle Kim sits down with Emma Post — a former press secretary in Washington who transitioned into wellness entrepreneurship, with a mission to help women 40+ feel stronger, more confident, and more vibrant through simple, sustainable practices.

This conversation is a grounded reminder that thriving as we age doesn’t require extremes. Emma shares what it was like operating inside high-pressure, male-dominated political spaces, why women can become stronger and more attractive after 40, and how the “three Ms” — medicine, movement, and mindset — bring everything back to what actually works.

What you’ll take away:

  • Why strength training is one of the most longevity-supportive habits for women 40+

  • How to approach supplements intelligently (and avoid what doesn’t work)

  • The real impact of stress on women’s health — and why mindfulness becomes non-negotiable

  • How to trust your intuition while navigating misinformation, trends, and overwhelm

  • Why prioritizing health can be a unifying mission — regardless of background or beliefs
