Caregiving & the Science of Aging Well

Kim Hegwood | February 18, 2025

“This idea of moving is really that inherent innate thing that all of us do. But it has real therapeutic power to it. And there are little tips and you know, strategies, you can have to get the most out of movement. And so, we like to talk about movement as medicine more than because it sounds catchy, but because we want movement to feel as accessible and inclusive as possible.” Amanda Rees
Today Kim Hegwood speaks with Amanda Rees, the owner and founder of Age Bold. They will be talking about strategies for aging well. A few questions Kim will be asking are:

1)Your caregiving experience inspired you to start a company, can you share more about this journey?

2) Let’s talk about the link between healthy aging and caregiving.

3) What do you mean when you say, “Movement is Medicine”?

4) Bold is focused on the science of fall prevention and balance. What should caregivers listening know about falls and balance?

5) What tips do you have for caregivers to bring movement into their life and routine?
