Active After 35 Thrive To 105

In 2009 Laura, wife, mother, and professional business woman was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis forcing her to re-evaluate her life and change the direction she had so carefully planned out. Since that time Laura has managed her symptoms by implementing key lifestyle changes including diet, exercise, a mindfulness practice and the way she looks at life in general. Listen on as Laura describes how she now understands that MS offered her a gift from a very unexpected source. http://www.Overcoming Multiple Sclerosis.org Here you will find loads of information, lots of blogs from other people, research papers, forums… I think it’s really the only website anyone with MS should visit.  

Today’s episode is about Kathrine Switzer, Bev’s friend and my long-time idol. Way back in 1967 Kathrine changed attitudes about women’s running and women’s athletic potential by running 26.2 miles at the Boston Marathon. She was the first American woman to officially run and finish this prestigious race. Her participation was timely, but not without controversy, as the “Women’s Movement” for equality and awareness was gaining momentum. Women were making great strides in the workforce, in sports, in politics, and even their very personal choices of their right to choose birth control and child bearing options. Kathrine’s story goes way beyond running a marathon. We are honored to have her with us today to celebrate in the 50th anniversary of her 1967 race in Boston and to let her share her story of women’s empowerment that began way back then and continues to this day. Kathrine’s story is an inspiration and a call to action for all women. Her international organization 261fearless.org offers an opportunity fo

Bev and Stephanie discuss FAT, the worrisome word that wreaks havoc among most women Fat is a word that invokes fear and loathing in many of us. The word creates negative, and often irrational but really powerful emotions. In this episode Bev and Stephanie will discuss myths of FAT nutrition. They talk about non-fat, low fat, full fat foods, current trends in eating, and share some little known secrets about FAT. Stephanie also shares discoveries from her bestselling book about metabolic fat burning and how you can utilize your own stores of body fat to increase energy, lose weight, and improve your health while never dieting again. There are still so many misconceptions about what is good or bad for you and in New Zealand anyway, the Health Department is still giving out written information to the general public to eat low fat, consume lots of vegetable oils and to chow down on piles of grains. So this could be an eye opening episode for some people. Also, the word ‘fat’ is bandied around a lot as an insult
