Episode 5: Forever Young

In a shout-out to Jay-Z, we start this episode with Casie singing ‘Forever Young” Forgive her for her voice. 😂

In all seriousness though, Jesica shares a recent scare with her mom and her newfound perspective on what it means to grow old, as you may find yourself both raising kids AND caring for your aging parents.

In this episode, we challenge assumptions around frailty, Alzheimer’s and nursing homes in an effort to show there is another way. We cover everything from muscle mass to protein and the power of your beliefs on the way you will age. Jesica offers her favorite, affordable way to regain bone density.

If you don’t change the trajectory of how you will age for yourself, do it for those you most love.
