AGEIST

Angélica Fuentes, business executive, founder, and women’s equality advocate, belongs to a generation of women refusing the old script that ambition narrows with age, power comes from status, and reinvention has a deadline. She talks about building companies in male-dominated industries, becoming a CEO at 29, advocating for women long before corporate equality became fashionable, and starting NOWFUL in her 60s. Listen to gain a sharper way to think about rest, resilience, self-worth, and the daily practices that make a person harder to break. Fuentes’ story is not about returning to who she was before loss, but about using age, motherhood, and hard-earned wisdom to build from a deeper place.

This week on The AGEIST Podcast, Dr. Suzanne Gilberg explains why menopause care needs more science, more honesty, and more respect for women’s ability to make informed choices. Listeners will learn how to think about HRT, breast cancer risk, testosterone, brain health, bone health, and the limits of one-size-fits-all medical advice. She also explains why community matters, why menopause education has been neglected, and why women should keep asking harder questions of their doctors and the medical system. This episode gives listeners a clearer way to advocate for themselves, assess the flood of menopause information, and build a practical path through midlife health.

“Science is not a religion. It is not a monolith, it is not unchanging and unmoving. That is not what science is. Science is a process of inquiry. Period. End of sentence.”
“There’s actually quite a bit of data on the potential health benefits of estrogen specifically in all of us and in breast cancer survivors.”
“This is not a disease; this is a state of being alive. So you have options in terms of how you want to live and age well, whatever that means to you.”

This week on The AGEIST Podcast, Dr. Florence Comite,  clinician-scientist, and author of Invincible: Defy Your Genetic Destiny to Live Better, Longer, explains why “normal” lab results can miss the early signals that shape long-term health. Learn how sugar, insulin, A1C, cholesterol patterns, HDL, and free testosterone can reveal metabolic changes before a conventional diagnosis appears. She makes the case for tools like CGMs, deeper family history, better sleep, strength training, and hormone awareness as practical ways to understand what is happening beneath the surface. The episode gives the audience a clear framework for asking better questions, acting earlier, and taking more precise ownership of the next decades of their health.

This week on The AGEIST Podcast, David Stewart sits down with Heather Hurlock, founding editor of The Mindset by Super Age, to explain the thinking behind the Super Age Games and the science that shaped them. The conversation breaks down why healthspan, not simply lifespan, is the real target, and how eight trainable markers can help people understand where they are now and what to work on next. Listeners will learn why VO2 max, grip strength, balance, agility, working memory, relational capacity, functional strength, and endurance under load matter for long-term vitality. The episode also makes the case that longevity is not an abstract future goal, but a set of daily practices, tests, and community-based commitments that can be trained now.

Key Moments
“We don't do any “n of one” studies at super age. We're looking at large data sets that are pointing to actions you can take right now that affect your health span and your lifespan.”
“We were looking for markers that were testable quickly, like in under five minutes at home that don’t require a whole lot of special equipment, but are backed by deep peer-reviewed mortality and health data and then trainable in weeks, not decades.”
“It helps people find the tools and the motivation to build a better life for themselves. That's what we're doing here.”

Say hi to the AGEIST team!

A conversation with the Refinery29 founder and mind behind A Tiny Apt. about what midlife sharpens: your sense of what matters, what no longer fits, and how your surroundings affect your mood, sleep, and energy. Christene explains why small changes at home can reduce background stress, why reinvention feels more urgent with age, and how to make choices that reflect who you are now rather than who you used to be. Listeners will come away with a clearer way to think about editing their space, protecting their attention, and moving toward change without waiting for perfect conditions. It is a practical episode about building a life that feels more intentional, more livable, and less crowded by other people’s expectations.

Key Moments
“And I’m gonna tell you, if you have trouble sleeping, paint your bedroom a dark color, because my husband and I feel like we are in a hotel room every night.”
“I don’t want to leave anything on the table. I want to make it to the end and just be like, I f***ing played that hand so well, and I didn’t play it small. And that can be really scary, you know, especially when you feel like failure is more detrimental as you get older and harder to recover from.”
“You don’t have to conquer your goals overnight, but when you start moving in the direction of it, when you make that decision, it is like, miracles really do start to happen.”
