EP14: Julia Linn: 66 Year-Old Badass on Aging, Wellness, & No Excuses

This episode with Julia Linn is about what’s possible at any age no matter the challenges or setbacks you’ve had!  I had the privilege of talking with Julia who is 66 years old and is a fitness influencer, wellness expert, certified coach, author, motivational speaker, and a badass competition bodybuilder!  She has reimagined what it is to be a senior citizen at age 66. Her story of transformation includes severe childhood diabetes, to almost dying at 34 from complications when a double organ transplant saved her life. At 48 a triple cardiac bypass, at 50 a thyroidectomy. Julia’s story will give you that kick-in-the-butt you need to never give up! Julia has lived all over the world as a university professor and instead of retiring at 62, she decided to get fit, expressing gratitude for the gift of life the organ transplant gave her. The physical transformation was profound – but more so on the inside where you couldn’t see it. It led to bodybuilding competitions for 60+ and becoming a certified personal trainer and mindset coach.  Julia wants women in their 40s, 50s, 60s, and 70s to learn how to think differently about menopause, their bodies, and the toxic culture of weight loss. She is here to encourage, empower, and inspire you that it is never too late to meet the life and health goals you want to achieve!   CONNECT WITH CARLA: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yourageisnotyourcage/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adonorsstory/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mrscarlaallen?mibextid=LQQJ4d Website:  https://carlaallen.com   Interested in being featured as a guest?
