From Fitness OG To Longevity Coach: A Practical Path To Joyful Health with Cathy Savage
Episode 158
Wednesday, 28 January, 2026
Send us a textIf health felt lighter, would you show up more often? We sit down with fitness pioneer Cathy Savage to reframe longevity as a joyful, no-extremes path you can live with today and still love a decade from now. Cathy helped redefine what success looks like in the gym; now she’s bringing that health-first mindset to food, movement, sleep, stress, and brain health so you can add life to your years.We talk about building a sustainable rhythm with Mediterranean-style eating, rhythmic protein, and fiber without turning meals into math problems. Walking takes center stage—yes, it counts—with a special focus on 10–15 minute post-meal walks to blunt glucose spikes and aid digestion. For strength, Cathy introduces micro bursts: 10-minute, high-quality sessions two to three times weekly that fit real schedules and deliver real results through consistency and progressive challenge.Stress and sleep get a practical makeover. Think boundaries as bowling bumpers, sleep choreography that trains your nervous system, and routines that protect your time. Cathy shares a heartfelt perspective on brain health—why community, insulin control, quality sleep, and purpose matter—and how to “map your decades” so today’s habits match tomorrow’s dreams, like chasing grandkids or traveling with ease. Personalization anchors everything: ditch one-size-fits-all rules, design what works for your physiology, and let simple wins stack up.Ready to design your future health before it designs you? Press play, then share the one small habit you’ll start today.
