Her latest book, How to Age, is an instant number one bestseller, and this conversation is a beautiful reminder of why her work resonates so deeply.Liz brings warmth, wisdom, and science together in a way that feels genuinely accessible, and she makes a compelling case that the most powerful tools for longevity are often the simplest and most freeHere's What We Dive Into:- How mitochondria drive almost every aspect of how we age, and why caring for them is the foundation of lasting health.- Why the best longevity tools are free: morning daylight, grounding, and filtered water, and how each one fuels cellular energy.- How disrupted light signals quietly wreck sleep and mood, and why "sky before screens" is a rule worth keeping.- What structured water and hydrogen water actually are, and how to make your daily hydration work harder.- Why sunscreen timing matters more than we think, and what the science of UVA and UVB really says.- How perimenopause, exhaustion, and poor sleep are often connected, and what Liz wishes she had known sooner.- Why Liz has never said "anti-aging" and why she believes the pro-aging revolution starts with women like us.Love,Sarah Ann 💛***This episode is sponsored by:DIOME: Rest deeper.
