Today, I’m joined by the fabulous Sarena for a cheeky chat all about ageing, gracefully, powerfully and with a healthy dose of side-eye at society’s obsession with anti-ageing. We’re unpacking everything from laugh lines to collagen, supplements to skincare fads, and asking the big questions: Why do women face so much pressure to ‘stay young’? And what if we just… didn’t buy into it?

In this episode, we explore how ageing looks and feels different for women, the impact of social expectations on self-image, and why we’re shifting our focus from chasing external perfection to building inner confidence, strength, and connection. We’ll also chat about the real MVPs of healthy ageing, like movement, nutrition, community, and, yes, a bit of Vitamin C.

Whether you’re starting to notice a few lines or just over the BS, this one’s for you. Let’s stop fighting age and start owning it.
