  • E326: Why "Aging Gracefully" Is a Myth, with Dr. Jerry Mixon

    E326: Why "Aging Gracefully" Is a Myth, with Dr. Jerry Mixon
    2026/10/21
    What if the way we've been taught to think about aging is completely backwards? What if feeling exhausted, gaining weight, losing muscle, and struggling with brain fog isn't actually inevitable? In this episode of The Art of Living Well Podcast®, Marnie and Stephanie sit down with physician Dr. Jerry Mixon, who has spent the last 30 years focused on longevity medicine after realizing, at 50, that treating disease after it appears wasn't enough. Dr. Mixon shares his own turning point (including the office chair moment that finally got his attention), then walks through why testosterone, not estrogen, is actually a woman's primary hormone, why "normal" lab results don't always mean optimal, and why muscle functions almost like its own gland in the body. They also get into the real risks of losing muscle on GLP-1 medications, why BMI is a flawed metric for midlife women, and what walking pace can tell you about long-term health. This is a deep, detail-rich conversation, so if you've ever been told your labs are "normal" but still felt off, or you're curious about hormone therapy, muscle loss, or where to start with limited time and budget, this episode is for you. Key Takeaways: Testosterone, not estrogen, is a woman's primary sex hormone by volume, and it declines sharply through midlife Muscle functions almost like an active gland, releasing proteins that influence immune function, brain health, and metabolism "Normal" lab results are often built around average reference ranges, not what's optimal for how you actually want to feel BMI doesn't distinguish muscle from fat, which makes it a poor metric for midlife women focused on body composition Walking pace is one of the simplest, most telling indicators of long-term physical function GLP-1 medications can come with meaningful muscle loss if protein intake and resistance training aren't part of the plan How a hormone is delivered (oral pill vs. topical cream) can matter as much as which hormone is used Regular lab testing against your own personal baseline, not just population averages, gives a clearer picture of what's actually changing Episode Breakdown with Timestamps: 00:00 Welcome and Guest Introduction: Dr. Jerry Mixon 00:46 From Overweight Doctor to Longevity Physician: Dr. Mixon's Turning Point 01:48 The Story That Changed Everything: Stuck to His Own Office Chair 02:46 Why Longevity Medicine Was Once Only for the Ultra-Wealthy 04:44 30 Years Later: Life at (Nearly) 80 06:09 Testosterone: The Hormone Women Are Often Missing 07:26 Why Lab Reports Compare Estrogen and Testosterone in a Misleading Way 08:49 What Testosterone Actually Does for a Woman's Body 10:03 Addressing the "Will Testosterone Make Me Look More Masculine?"

  • E325: 10 Days of Silence at 22: What a Meditation Retreat Taught Lily Lev About Health, Resilience & Letting Go

    E325: 10 Days of Silence at 22: What a Meditation Retreat Taught Lily Lev About Health, Resilience & Letting Go
    2026/10/07

    What happens when you trade a typical college spring break for 10 days of silence, no phone, 4 a.m. wake-ups and hours of meditation?

    This week, we're joined by Lily Lev, a recent University of Michigan graduate who studied biology, health and society. While studying abroad, Lily traveled to Thailand for a 10-day silent meditation retreat—an experience that challenged her physically and mentally and ultimately changed the way she thinks about health, emotions and resilience.

    In this conversation, Lily shares what those 10 days were really like, why sitting still was harder than staying silent, and the lessons she brought home about non-attachment, loving-kindness, stress and becoming less reactive.

    We also explore Lily's evolving definition of holistic health, the connection between physical and mental resilience, and the routines she recommends for young adults navigating the transition to college and beyond.

    IN THIS EPISODE:
    ✨ What 10 days at a silent meditation retreat actually looked like
    ✨ Why discomfort became one of Lily's greatest teachers
    ✨ How non-attachment can change our relationship with difficult emotions
    ✨ The surprising power of loving-kindness
    ✨ Why health is about so much more than nutrition and exercise
    ✨ Lily's advice for creating healthy routines during college

  • E324: 4 Things We Never Skip, No Matter How Busy Life Gets

    E324: 4 Things We Never Skip, No Matter How Busy Life Gets
    2026/09/16
    Summer just happened, and by September, Marnie and Stephanie are usually scrambling to rebuild their routines from scratch. Not this year. In this episode of The Art of Living Well Podcast®, they recap the summer (the good stuff and the stuff that slipped), then get into what they call their non-negotiables: the floor, not the ceiling. The handful of things they protect no matter how chaotic life gets. They walk through the specifics: how they keep moving even on days with zero free time, why sleep is non-negotiable and how alcohol affects it more than people admit, the daily smoothie and protein-first habit that keeps their blood sugar and energy steady, and the no-phones-at-the-table rule that's harder to enforce than it sounds. Along the way, they talk about why they both still work with coaches themselves, and why that's true no matter how "figured out" your habits are. They close by introducing the Fall 7-Day Vitality Reboot, starting September 27, with both a live cohort and a self-paced option available. Key Takeaways: •Non-negotiables are the floor, not the ceiling — the few things you protect no matter how chaotic life gets •Movement doesn't require a full workout — stairs, short walks, and airport laps all count on the busiest days •Alcohol disrupts sleep more consistently than most people realize, even just one drink •Starting the day with protein, fat, and fiber helps stabilize blood sugar and energy for the rest of the day •Planning ahead, like packing salads or bringing a shaker bottle, makes healthy choices easier when travel throws off your routine •Working with a coach, in any category of life, tends to lead to better outcomes than going it alone •A phone-free table is one of the simplest ways to stay present with the people you're actually with •The Fall Vitality Reboot starts September 27 and offers both a live cohort and a self-paced option Episode Breakdown with Timestamps: 00:00 Welcome Back: Summer Wrap-Up Begins 00:32 Three Things We're Covering Today 01:14 Marnie's Summer Highlights: Family Trip and Montana With Jordan 02:36 The Simple Things: Outdoor Dinners and a $40 Deck Table 04:38 Stephanie's Two-Week Family Trip and Learning to Slow Down 06:08 Introducing Our Non-Negotiables: The Floor, Not the Ceiling 06:40 Non-Negotiable #1: Movement, Even When the Day Falls Apart 08:20 Getting Creative With Movement While Traveling 09:42 Non-Negotiable #2: Sleep and Knowing Your Own Limits 10:53 Why One Drink Disrupts Marnie's Sleep Every Time 11:35 Midlife and Caring Less What Other People Think 12:54 Non-Negotiable #3: The Daily Smoothie and Protein First 14:16 The Backup Plan: Protein on the Go When Life Gets Chaotic 15:15 Hydration on the Road 16:08 Packing Ahead: The Salad-in-a-Jar Story 16:55 The TSA Ice Pack Incident 17:24 Why We Both Still Work With Coaches 19:06 What the Research Says About Coached vs. Non-Coached Outcomes 19:57 Coaches for Every Season of Life 20:38 Non-Negotiable #4: No Phones at the Table 22:24 What Marnie's Daughter's School Says About Texting Back Right Away 23:38 Introducing the Fall Vitality Reboot 23:55 Live Cohort or Self-Paced: Choose What Works for You 24:58 What's the One Non-Negotiable You'll Protect This Fall?
