Carrie Owerko Breaks Movement Myths

Movement teacher Carrie Owerko joins us this week on The AGEIST Podcast to break down how curiosity and joy can transform the way we move, age, and live. Carrie describes herself as both a movement optimist and an “optionist,” someone who believes in varied, adaptable practices over rigid routines. She shares how play, autonomy, and experimentation fuel sustainable physical habits, regardless of age or ability. So if you’ve ever felt boxed in by fitness dogma or hesitant to try something new, this conversation will show you a better path forward.How long will you live?
