How to Age Well Naturally with Face Yoga, Facial Exercises, and Clean Beauty with Juliana Spaven | EP198
Wellness Junkies | Beauty & Wellness Tips, Hacks, Recs & Reviews for Women 40+Show Notes
Aging well starts when you stop chasing quick fixes and start building strength, energy, and confidence through habits that actually hold up over time.
Amy sits down with Juliana Spaven, a 50+ model, content creator, and founder of Silver Highlights 1971, a platform devoted to helping women age naturally and age well through movement, nutrition, face yoga, and clean beauty. Juliana shares how midlife fatigue, poor sleep, and mounting frustration became a turning point that pushed her to question what aging could look like with more intention. What happens when you stop accepting discomfort as normal and start treating it as useful feedback?
The conversation focuses on consistency over shortcuts. Strength training, mobility, and stability form the foundation, especially as hormones change. Juliana explains why she stepped away from Botox and turned to facial exercises, face yoga, and tools like Frownies to support lift and tone over time, along with protein-forward nutrition and ingredient awareness that support overall health. This episode offers a steady reframing of aging as something you actively participate in rather than brace against. What choices are shaping your future self right now?

“Clean” on the front of a jar can mean almost anything. There is no standardized regulatory definition of “clean” for cosmetics, so clean skincare can still carry synthetic fragrance, dyes, and parabens under a pretty label. If you have ever stood in a store unsure which claims to trust, start here.
If you're 40+, bone health probably feels like a problem for later. Then a DEXA scan at 50 comes back with osteopenia and osteoporosis, even after years of heavy lifting and HRT. That is exactly what happened to Amy Sherman, and it sent her looking for answers.
If you open a closet and feel your shoulders tighten, there is a reason. Studies link clutter and cortisol, the body's main stress hormone. That means the pile on the kitchen counter may be adding to the weight you carry every day. Decluttering your home is one of the few wellness levers fully in your control, and it can start smaller than you think. One drawer and a timer might be enough.
You have the title, the team, and the income. So why does it still feel like something is in the way? Brett Chinn says the answer usually lives in a belief you picked up years ago, and astrology can help you find it.
Wellness tips are everywhere right now, and most of them contradict each other. Amy Sherman sits down with Sean Hoess, founder and CEO of Eudēmonia Summit, for a conversation about what is actually worth trying and what is just noise.
