She’s passionate about empowering people to age well through mobility, and the vital importance of maintaining bone and muscle health as we age.

Why weight doesn’t matter, but your body composition does
How staying mobile impacts your mental health

The connection between mobility and brain function
The impact of refined sugar on our health
