🎙️Season 3 Episode 5: Too Young to Feel This Old!
Are we getting older, or is everything just getting harder?This week on Heard @ The Barre, Courtney and Kristy are talking about the aches, pains, illnesses, and everyday challenges that seem to come with getting older — and why we're not quite ready to accept that it's all just part of aging!After Courtney's unexpected trip to the hospital, we revisit our conversation about supplements, immune health, and the products we've personally found helpful. From menopause and joint pain to trying to stay active and healthy, we're sharing what's worked for us, what hasn't, and what we're still figuring out.But the conversation doesn't stop there!We also dive into the differences between generations when it comes to mental health, the pressure to push through difficult days, and whether taking time for yourself is always the best answer.And somewhere along the way, we manage to squeeze in daylight saving time, early morning Pilates classes, and a documentary that put Kristy to sleep!It's another episode full of honest conversations, Gen X humour, unexpected tangents, and the occasional foot-in-mouth moment.We'd love to hear from you! What products, routines, or little tricks help you feel your best as you get older?Thank you for being part of our community.
