In This Episode

In this episode, hear from Janet Omstead, a health and wellness expert with 20 years of experience. She's an author, speaker, personal trainer, elite behavior change health coach, and play expert. Omstead shares her personal journey of how she almost lost her life three times, which led her to become passionate about well-being. She emphasizes the importance of women over 50 prioritizing their health and how changing their habits can help them become their best selves. Janet believes exercise is a fundamental habit that can create a positive catalyst for change, leading to better health and wellness. 

 

She also talks about the importance of play in daily routines and how it is essential to living life to the fullest. Janet defines play as finding joy in movement that makes sense to each person, which she suggests is easier than we think.
