Welcome to The Liz Earle Wellbeing Show, the podcast helping all women have a better second half. I’m Liz Earle and, with so many of us living longer than ever before, I’m on a mission to help women thrive in later life by investing in our health and wellbeing today. This means picking up good habits in our 20s and 30s, navigating the changes that come in our 40s and 50s and fortifying our bodies with everything we need to stay fit, flexible, sharp and energised in our 60s, 70s and beyond.   Hosted on Acast.
