#70. The Well-Lived Life with Dr Gladys McGarey - re-release from July 2024
from Make Movement Matter with Wendy Welpton · host Wendy Welpton
A very special re-release as we near the end of 2025.This conversation with Dr Gladys McGarey was one of the greatest privileges of my podcasting life. We recorded it in July 2024, just a couple of months before she passed away, and I had no idea at the time that it would be one of her final interviews.Listening back now, her wisdom lands even more deeply.We talked about what it really means to feel “stuck” in life and how to find the true source of that stuckness. We explored her beautiful Five L’s; life, love, laughter, labour and listening, and the way she saw movement not just as a physical act, but as a way of staying connected to purpose.She spoke about choosing to move toward light rather than fear, about ageing into health, about the joy that comes from simply being alive… and the gentle power of listening and caring for one another as humans.As we head into 2026, it felt like the perfect moment to bring this episode back. It’s grounding, perspective-shifting, and it’s a reminder that we always have a choice in how we move through the world, both literally and emotionally.I hope her words encourage you to take stock of where you are, reconnect with what matters, and step into the new year with a little more hope, joy, and curiosity.This one is truly special. 💜To find out more about today's guest and for the full show notes, visit:The Make Movement Matter PodcastIf you enjoy this podcast, please press Follow and Rate and Review.
