Age Like a Badass Mother

by Lauren Bernick

Age Like a Badass Mother: Feel confident, fierce, and alive after 45 What does it take to stay healthy, curious, confident, and excited about life as we get older? On the podcast, Lauren Bernick talks with doctors, scientists, authors, researchers, and well-lived elders about the things that can make the second half of life better: health and longevity, food and fitness, menopause, sex, relationships, body image, confidence, meaning and purpose, appearance, and everything else we start thinking about a little differently once we hit our 40s, 50s, and beyond. She reversed her heart disease with a plant-based diet, which doctors said couldn't be done. That led her to wonder what other lies and myths we've been sold about health and aging.  Lauren doesn't pretend there’s one right way to age. She asks questions, digs into the research, shares what she's learned, and isn't afraid to challenge the conventional wisdom. As a former stand-up comic, she knows how to bring out the best in her guests, especially if there's a two-drink minimum. Smart. Slightly salty. Irreverent and thought-provoking. For women who have lived enough to know themselves, but aren't finished becoming who they're going to be. Make the Rest of Your Life the Best of Your Life. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/age-like-a-badass-mother/id1727889073 Lauren@agelikeabadassmother.com https://www.agelikeabadassmother.com/ https://www.instagram.com/agelikeabadassmother/ https://www.youtube.com/@agelikeabadassmother https://www.facebook.com/WellElephant

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I am always amazed how good I feel when I listen to the podcast. It feels like hanging out with a good friend. I think Lauren asks good questions and she’s honest. The subject matter is meaningful to me and I have incorporated many ideas into my life.

222kurlz · Sep 2026

This podcast is for those who aren’t looking to fix every little thing about growing older. It’s refreshing in a world that seems to want to measure, biohack, and fix. The guests are interesting and the advice is sensible. I always learn something new and it feels like an old friend is talking to you.

Austin Lauren · Jun 2026

My new favorite listen. I heard Lauren on Plantstrong and I’ve been hooked ever since. Every episode is excellent I, too, have high cholesterol along with a WFPB diet for 6 years and I’m learning how to lower it naturally like Lauren.

Hamandegg2 · Apr 2026

Lauren is such a grounded, loving soul — with a heart rooted in service. Thank you for flipping the script on growing older and showing us that wellbeing, joy, and badassery only get better with time.
