In a video I uploaded a few months ago, I mentioned that I was 52, and apparently that became the plot twist,
2
because suddenly the comments were completely full of people saying, wait, you're 52?
3
How do you look so young?
4
What's your secret?
5
And first of all, thank you.
6
Please continue.
7
I am not above enjoying a compliment.
8
But I also think the real answer is probably not what people expect, because this is not going to be a video about sunscreen
9
or collagen powder
10
or drinking more water now to be clear i definitely do
11
care about skin care i've actually made skin care videos in the past
12
and if you are interested in the more practical skin care side of things then i will link those below
13
but this video is not really a skin care video it's a vitality video
14
because yes skin care matters sleep matters nutrition matters all those things matter
15
but i personally think
16
that looking younger is often a byproduct of something deeper how
17
you live how you move how you think about yourself what you refuse to normalize
18
and whether you're still actively participating in your own life
19
so today i want to share the tiny habits
20
that help me look and feel younger at 53 not
21
because i'm trying to be 35 again but
22
because i have absolutely no intention of getting smaller quieter
23
or less alive with age in this video i've got six tiny habits to share with you.
24
And the first habit might be the most important one.
25
Habit number one is I do not treat aging like decline.
26
And I mean that very literally.
27
I don't automatically interpret getting older as becoming less interesting, less relevant, less attractive, less ambitious,
28
less capable, or less allowed to want things.
29
Because I think one of the ways
30
that people start aging before they need to is they begin rehearsing an identity of decline.
31
They start saying things like, well, at my age.
32
Like, at my age, I can't start over.
33
At my age, I can't wear that.
34
At my age, I can't learn that.
35
At my age, I can't change careers.
36
At my age, I can't put myself out there.
37
And eventually, at my age, kind of becomes like a prison sentence.
38
Now, obviously, age is real.
39
I am not pretending that time isn't passing.
40
I am not going to sit here and tell you
41
that 53 is the same as 23 because it isn't
42
and frankly thank god i do not need to be 23 again i have met 23 year old me
43
and she had some lovely qualities but she was also exhausted anxious
44
and had terrible boundaries
45
so this isn't about denying age it's about refusing to let
46
age become the entire explanation for what is still possible your age is information it is not a cage
47
and there's actually some fascinating research on this.
48
Yale researcher Becca Levy has studied how our beliefs about aging affect health and longevity.
49
In one well -known study, people with more positive self -perceptions of aging lived,
50
on average, 7 .5 years longer than those with more negative self -perceptions.
51
Now, that does not mean that you can positive think your way out of biology.
52
That is not what I am saying, but it does suggest that how we think about aging matters.
53
Because beliefs influence behavior.
54
Behavior influences health, and identity influences what we even attempt.
55
If you believe that you are already becoming irrelevant, you will move differently through the world.
56
You will take fewer risks.
57
You will stop entering new rooms.
58
You will stop investing in your body.
59
You will stop dressing like you're still in the game.
60
You will stop learning things that make you feel alive.
61
And over time, that starts to show.
62
For me, this has been a huge part of my own reinvention.
63
I left medicine in my 40s.
64
I had already built a stable, respected career.
65
I had a family.
66
I had responsibilities.
67
I could have easily told myself, it's too late.
68
You have already chosen your path.
69
This is who you are now.
70
But I didn't.
71
I chose to see midlife not as the beginning of the end, but as the beginning of a much more honest chapter
72
and since then i have built a business grown a youtube channel written books stepped into speaking
73
and started doing things that younger me would have found completely terrifying and it's
74
because i stopped asking myself am i too old for this
75
a way better question to ask is who would i become if i allowed myself to try that's the habit.
76
When I catch myself thinking maybe I'm too old for that, I try to pause and ask a better question.
77
What would it look like to approach this like someone who is still becoming?
78
Because aging differently starts with refusing to narrate your own disappearance.
79
Okay, the second habit is a little more concrete, and it's this.
80
The second habit is that I strength train.
81
And I am sorry to report that the secret is not a serum.
82
It is probably squats.
83
I know, rude.
84
But honestly, I think that strength training is one of the most powerful things
85
that you can do if you want to look and feel younger.
86
And it's not just about aesthetics.
87
Yes, muscle changes the shape of your body.
88
Yes, it helps with tone.
89
And yes, it can affect body composition.
90
But I think that the bigger thing is that muscle changes how you carry yourself.
91
It changes your posture.
92
It changes your confidence.
93
And that matters.
94
Because one of the most visible signs of aging, it's not a wrinkle.
95
It's the slow shrinking of someone's physical presence.
96
The body starts to look uncertain and fragile.
97
And the person starts moving through the world as though they are trying not to take up too much space.
98
And listen, there are many reasons that can happen.
99
Injury, illness, stress, hormones, life demands.
100
This is not about blaming anyone, but I do think that we underestimate how much vitality is physical.
101
For women especially, strength training becomes incredibly important in midlife
102
because we are dealing with changes in muscle mass and bone density and metabolism and hormones.
103
And the research here is very solid.
104
Resistance training has been shown to improve strength, muscle mass, physical function, and bone health in older adults.
105
But beyond the research, there is the feeling of it.
106
There is something very different about aging while feeling strong.
107
It gives you a completely different relationship with your body.
108
I strength train because I want to feel powerful in my body.
109
I want to be able to lift things and travel
110
and walk for hours and try new sports and move through airports and live my actual life.
111
I want my body to feel like a place I can rely on.
112
You don't need to become a bodybuilder, but you do need to challenge your muscles.
113
Push, pull, squat, hinge, carry, and do it consistently because muscle is agency.
114
And there is a particular kind of youthfulness that comes from looking like your body still belongs to you.
115
The third habit is that I protect my energy like it actually matters.
116
And I genuinely think
117
that one of the most underrated beauty treatments is not secretly resenting everyone around you
118
because i have watched people age under the weight of things
119
that they never learned how to put down over functioning people pleasing taking responsibility for everyone else's feelings saying yes
120
when every cell in their body is saying no living in a state of low -grade resentment
121
and calling it being nice And again, this is not about blame.
122
Most of us learned this honestly.
123
Many of us were trained to be accommodating and pleasant and endlessly available.
124
But at some point, that becomes very draining and very expensive.
125
It costs you sleep.
126
It costs you your nervous system.
127
And I think it shows because chronic stress affects the body profoundly.
128
There's research connecting chronic psychological stress with biological aging pathways including
129
telomere biology stress affects inflammation immune function sleep cravings mood hormones
130
and how safe you feel in your own life for me leaving medicine was the moment
131
when i reclaimed my own energy i loved many parts of being a doctor
132
but i had also spent years holding a lot responsibility emotional intensity other people's needs systems
133
that were difficult to change and a pace
134
that did not always leave much room for my own expansion
135
and when i left it wasn't
136
because i wanted an easier life i still work hard i
137
run a business i create content i write i speak i
138
have a family it's not as though i left medicine and now spend my days floating around in linen gently misting orchids.
139
Although frankly, some days that doesn't sound too bad.
140
But the difference is that I am much more intentional now about what gets access to me.
141
That is a tiny habit.
142
I pay attention to resentment.
143
I pay attention to dread and to the situations where I feel myself shrinking
144
or performing or abandoning myself to keep everyone else comfortable.
145
And instead of ignoring those signals, I try to treat them as data.
146
So sometimes the answer is a better boundary.
147
Sometimes I have to have a hard conversation.
148
Sometimes the answer is just a plain old no, because you can't live in a permanent state of, I'll just push through.
149
without it taking a toll.
150
Protecting your energy, it's not selfish, it's part of staying alive.
151
And this is actually one reason why I created my free self -sabotage recovery guide.
152
Because so often, the things that drain us, they are not random, they are patterns.
153
Like overthinking, people -pleasing, perfectionism, saying yes when we mean no.
154
So the guide helps you start to recognize those patterns and interrupt them before they keep running your life in the background.
155
So if you want that guide for free, I will link it below.
156
Now, the fourth habit is one of my favorites.
157
I keep becoming a beginner.
158
So I have found that for me, nothing will humble you faster than learning to play golf in your 50s, except possibly trying to speak French in public.
159
Both are absolutely excellent if you want to confront every perfectionist tendency you have ever had.
160
But I genuinely think that beginnerhood is one of the most important habits for staying youthful.
161
Because youthfulness is curiosity and aliveness and a willingness to be a little bit ridiculous.
162
It's the part of you that is still willing to be bad at something long enough to get better.
163
And I think a lot of people start aging psychologically when they stop being beginners.
164
They stop learning things that make them uncomfortable.
165
And they stop entering spaces where they don't already know the rules and they stop risking embarrassment and their world gets smaller.
166
It's maybe more comfortable, sure, but smaller.
167
Me?
168
I don't want that.
169
I want to keep having things in my life that stretch me.
170
For me, in the past couple of years, that has been golf, languages, YouTube, public speaking, and honestly, reinvention itself.
171
When I started to learn golf, I was not good.
172
I am still very much in the process of becoming good.
173
And there is something both horrifying and liberating about being visibly imperfect at something as an adult.
174
Because as adults, we like to be competent.
175
We like to be impressive and do things where we already know who we are.
176
But beginnerhood disrupts that because it forces you to become flexible again.
177
It reminds you that you are not finished yet
178
and this matters for the brain too lifelong learning
179
and cognitive engagement are consistently discussed as part of healthy aging
180
challenging yourself learning new skills staying cognitively active these things are
181
not just nice hobbies they are part of maintaining adaptability
182
and engagement with life but even beyond the brain science i think that there is something spiritual about being a beginner.
183
It keeps you humble and awake and in contact with possibility.
184
So one of my tiny habits is that I always want to have something in my life where I am learning.
185
One of my fellow TEDx speakers, Dr. Brenda Lau, the last time that we got together,
186
she told me that it's a huge priority for her at this stage of life to acquire skills, as many skills as she can get.
187
And the day after we met up for coffee in Vancouver, she went off to spend the day doing a bear defense training field program with her shotgun.
188
Yes, that's exactly what it sounds like.
189
There's something pretty badass, I think, about this petite, highly educated doctor,
190
anesthetist, and pain specialist doing their defense training out in the field.
191
Anyway, the idea here for me is to choose things where I am not the expert.
192
Something where I have to show up and practice.
193
Where I might look kind of foolish.
194
Because aging, in my opinion, accelerates when your world gets smaller.
195
Beginnerhood is like Botox for the spirit.
196
The fifth habit is that I dress and present myself like I'm still in the game.
197
And I know this might sound superficial at first
198
but I don't think that it is because at some point I think
199
that everyone has to decide am I dressing like I'm still participating in my life
200
or am I dressing like I've quietly opted out
201
and I want to be very clear this is not about trying to look 25
202
or chasing trends or believing
203
that your worth depends on how polished you look absolutely not
204
this is about self -recognition it is about looking in the mirror
205
and seeing someone who is still here still engaged still visible
206
still allowed to take up space i think one of the
207
quiet pressures we face as we age is the pressure to
208
disappear gracefully you know tone it down care a little less
209
want a little less be a little less visible don't be too much
210
and i reject that completely now that doesn't mean
211
that i am dressed up every day there are absolutely days
212
when i am in leggings no makeup and simply doing my best
213
but in general i care about how i present myself i care about hair
214
and skin care and grooming and jewelry and posture
215
because those things help me feel congruent with the woman
216
that i am becoming
217
when i started stepping into a more public -facing season of my life with youtube
218
and speaking and business
219
and visibility i became much more aware of this how i present myself is simply an expression of my identity
220
and this can be very simple a good blazer a pair
221
of earrings a lipstick a coat you love workout clothes that make exercise feel a little more inviting.
222
So the tiny habit is stop saving your best self for hypothetical occasions.
223
Dress for the life you are actually living and in a way that says I have not opted out.
224
The sixth habit is that I choose tiny rituals over dramatic overhauls.
225
I know everyone wants the one big secret, the one supplement, the one serum, but I think the secret is that there is no one big secret,
226
which is deeply annoying and unfortunately true.
227
Most of what helps me to look and feel younger is small, repetitive, and almost boring.
228
I walk.
229
I strength train.
230
I try to eat enough protein.
231
I protect my sleep as much as real life allows.
232
I do basic skincare.
233
I learn things.
234
I go outside.
235
I put myself together.
236
I spend time with people who make me feel more like myself.
237
I say no to things that aren't aligned and I say yes to things that expand me.
238
And no, I do not do all of this perfectly.
239
I do not wake up every morning and have a cinematic wellness montage.
240
Sometimes I am just trying to get the workout done, answer the emails, and not eat crackers over the sink.
241
But I do think that the small things matter
242
because they are identity cues every tiny habit reinforces a message about who you are
243
that you are someone who takes care of themselves someone who still cares about their energy their strength their presence
244
and their future someone who is not waiting for a dramatic overhaul before they start living differently
245
and over time those small reinforcements become part of how you see yourself this is really the heart of it for me.
246
Here's the thing, we are all aging, but the goal is to age in a way that still feels like us, or maybe even more like us,
247
more honest and confident and alive, basically more unwilling to waste time performing a life that no longer fits us.
248
So yes, I use skincare.
249
Yes, I care about how I look.
250
Yes, I enjoy a good compliment on the internet because, well, I'm human.
251
I'm not trying to age backwards i'm trying to age awake
252
and maybe that's the real difference
253
because aging differently isn't about pretending the time isn't passing it means deciding
254
that as time passes you are not going to get smaller quieter duller
255
or less alive your age is information it's not a cage
256
so i'd love to know
257
which of these habits do you most want to practice strength
258
boundaries beginnerhood style identity let me know in the comments and
259
if you want more videos on reinventing yourself in your 30s 40s 50s
260
and beyond make sure that you subscribe
261
because we are not trying to go back we are building a future self
262
that we actually want to become if you enjoyed this video i think
263
that you are going to love the one
264
that i have queued up for you next on the very next screen and I will see you there.
265
Bye.
266
Last minute fiddles with hair.
267
Okay, hair in my mouth.
268
That's annoying.
269
Okay, I still have hair that is like, is it stuck in my lipstick?
270
It's just like driving me crazy.
271
Okay, I gotta figure this out.
272
Okay, I think we should be fine.
273
Oh my gosh, there's always something.
