Ep 68: Future-Proof Your Body with Kelly and Juliet Starrett
What if the secret to aging well isn’t in a pill, but in how often you get off the floor? In this energizing episode of Save Yourself, I sit down with Juliet and Kelly Starrett—renowned movement pioneers, bestselling authors, and founders of The Ready State—to reveal the powerful (and surprisingly simple) habits that can radically improve your health, mobility, and independence as you age.
From Juliet’s leap from attorney to health entrepreneur, to Kelly’s hands-on work with elite athletes, the Starretts bring decades of expertise and a refreshingly down-to-earth approach to longevity. You’ll learn why building your “basecamp” of habits—like quality sleep, daily walking, and real food—matters more than the latest wellness trend. Plus, they break down why something as basic as floor sitting could be the key to staying agile and confident well into your 90s.
Whether you're juggling work, kids, or just trying to stay ahead of burnout, this episode offers practical, science-backed strategies to help you take charge of your health—starting now. Tune in and start building a body (and life) that’s ready for anything.
