On the latest episode of Live Long Better, I sit down with two leaders from the American Council on Exercise (ACE): 🧠 Dr. Sabrena Jo, Sr. Director of Science & Education, and 💼 Dr. Cedric Bryant, ACE’s Chief Executive Officer. Together, we explore how movement + community can act as powerful medicine for both body and mind.

We talk about the loneliness epidemic, the surprising science of exercising with others, and ACE’s 40 Forward initiative – a 40th‑anniversary commitment to shaping a more inclusive, age‑friendly future of fitness. From walking groups to outdoor classes to simple “social prescriptions,” this conversation is packed with practical ideas for older adults, families, and professionals.

If you or someone you love is over 60 and feeling “a little too alone,” this episode offers hopeful, evidence‑based next steps. 💚Remember, today’s show is brought to you by Aura Frames.
