Although on the surface today’s conversation appears to be about weight loss and fitness but it goes so much deeper than that.
My guest is Julia Lin, author of 'My Power Decade’, body builder and fitness coach who shares her inspiring transformation story from being sick and overweight to competing in fitness shows at the age of 62.
What I love about Julia’s story is that it’s not just about physical transformation. She shares the deep mindset and spiritual journey that has lead to her living as the best version of herself in all areas of life.
Julia shares that the foundation of any lasting physical or life change is built from the inside out.

Her journey defies convention, especially at the age of 67, where she redefines what it means to be a senior citizen. Having traversed continents as a professor, retirement wasn't in Julia's vocabulary at 65. Instead, she embarked on a remarkable journey of physical and mental transformation, stepping onto the bodybuilding stage with the determination of a warrior. Her resilience stems from a life peppered with medical challenges, beginning at the tender age of 11 with diabetes. Against all odds, she faced failed kidneys, diabetic blindness, heart disease, and more, defying the grim predictions of her doctors. Julia's life was spared by a double organ transplant and triple cardiac bypass surgeries, each a testament to her unwavering spirit. At 62, Julia committed to a newfound mindset centered around fitness, catalyzing a profound internal transformation alongside her physical one. Her mission crystallized: to empower women aged 40 to their 70s to break free from limiting beliefs and embrace their full potential. Through her certification as a personal trainer and mindset coach, Julia illuminates the path of self-reinvention, intertwining the realms of mind, body, and spirit. Certified by the International Sports Science Association (ISSA), Julia's expertise spans over four decades as an educator and keynote speaker on personal development. Her bestselling book, "MY POWER DECADE," serves as a roadmap for achieving fitness goals through mindset shifts and has garnered acclaim in Women's Health circles.

To help women connect with their inner strength, unearth their true purpose, and lead lives of profound meaning. For Julia, true wellness transcends the physical - it's a holistic journey of transformation from within.

If you have ever listened to the podcast you know that one of my pet peeves is the way older women are represented or rather under represented in mainstream media, unless of course its in ads for retirement plans, meal replacement shakes and bladder leakage products. The common definition of beauty does not include women in their 50’s and 60’s and beyond.
My guest today is on a mission to change that. Robin Bobbe is the founder of Modern Agerer Casting, a casting agency that specializes in finding diverse talent of all backgrounds and ages. After starting a career in the fashion industry as stylist, she then went on the become an actress, a casting director and then a commercial model in her 60’s. Confronted by the lack of diversity that the model agencies offered, she armed herself with a polaroid camera and began combing the streets in search of the authenticity that reflected more diverse faces.
We chat about:
Her experience and insights in the industry from both sides of the cameraThe importance of challenging societal norms of beauty and relevance. How she captures the power and beauty of older models through their confidence, self acceptance and authenticity.Her process for the many reinventions of her careerThe importance of constant exploration, creativity and life long learning as the keys to a fulfilling life.There are so many great insights and nuggets of wisdom in this episode. If you’ve ever thought, even for second, that you’d like to try your hand at modelling no mater how old you are Robin encourages you to take the first step by reaching out to her.

For so many years menopause has been a taboo subject - barely talked about between friends, let alone in mainstream media. I don’t know about you but I never heard the term peri-menopause before about 5 years ago. And as a result many women have suffered in silence, weren’t able advocate for their health and felt isolated and alone in their experience.
Today’s guest Laura Okafor-Crane is on a mission to change all that. She is the founder of Perry, affectionately known as the Perry Sisterhood, a platform and information resource for women in peri-menopause, approaching peri-menopause, and post-menopause. Perry is changing the way we talk about life during and after menopause by providing access to information, resources, expert advice and most importantly, as Laura shares, peer to peer support and community.
After watching her mother struggle through menopause in silence Laura wants to make ensure its a different experience for future generations. Perry is a safe space where women can come together to support each other. Its about education empowerment and self advocacy for all women in the menopause transition.
We talk about the lack of awareness and education on menopause in the medical community and how it often leads to to dismissive attitudes and misdiagnosis.
Why community and peer-to-peer support is so important
How empowering women with knowledge about menopause is crucial for them to make informed decisions now and in years to come
How her expertise in global product management has been instrumental in the development and growth of the Perry platform.
If you are menopausal, approaching menopause or have questions about menopause this is the episode for you.
_________
Laura is the founder and CEO of perry – a community app for perimenopause with more than 12k members. perry is a safe space to connect, support and learn during the menopause transition.
Laura is a FMCG veteran with 12+ years global Marketing experience at Procter & Gamble and Coty. It is her greatest passion to build spaces that serve the underserved.
Having experienced her mother struggling in silence during the menopause transition and being a millennial who approaches perimenopause herself, she was shocked by how little the support system around fertility and pregnancy matches the support women get when approaching perimenopause - which is close to none.
It is her mission to equip the upcoming generation entering the menopause transition with community and education - allowing ultimate self-advocacy.
Laura, being half Nigerian herself, loves Nigerian ‘Nollywood’ movies and lives with her husband and 2 sons.

As she was approaching her 40th birthday today’s guest, Stephanie McLaughlin wanted to do something fun and novel to celebrate the occasion rather than the obvious big 4-0 party. So she came up with a plan to mark the milestone year with 40 drinks with 40 people in 40 different places and to make each drink have a symbolic connection to their relationship.
Over the course of the year she reached out to current friends, old colleagues and even old boyfriends. She took pictures and wrote blogs of each experience and along the way she began to realize that this “fun” project had turned into a profound reflection of her life. Happy moments, sad moments and even a few surprises.
Stephanie went in knowing that 40 was a pivotal year for her but what she got from this experience was a powerful, soul-searching journey that changed her life profoundly.
Listen in to hear Stephanie’s experience of the 40 drinks project, what she learned and how it changed her life.
