Episode Summary

We have all heard that age is only a number, but how many of us actually know how to increase our longevity and happiness as we age? Natalie Jill is a fat loss expert, high-performance coach and globally recognized influencer. Today, she is here to share her wisdom and knowledge to help you learn how to age in reverse.

Natalie graces the front covers of fitness magazines at age 48. She is steadily shifting the stigma around what it means to get older. Her goal is to help women uncover their master passions to create a life that thrives without giving in to the stereotypes of aging. While nutrition and fitness are all well and good, the key to happiness is in uncovering your own vision of what you want out of life.

As kids, we all start out thinking that anything is possible. Through life, school and disappointments we start to lower our expectations and limit our own beliefs. Natalie wants you to find your dreams again and become more present with the infinite possibilities of your own potential instead of making excuses based on your age.

If you truly want to age in reverse you need to embrace your ability to decide how you want to feel and live. By searching for true connection and amazing moments, you can start to live younger from the inside out.

Are you ready to embrace aging in reverse? Share in the comments below how you combine mindset with health and fitness practices to find your value as you age.

“It really was just literally me being authentic and vulnerable and connecting that grew an entire business.” (13:46)

“It does not matter what you eat, what hormones you take, what workouts you do, what you listen to, none of that matters if you do not know where you want to go.” (20:01)
