Vegan Boss Radio

What if aging didn’t have to mean slowing down, losing strength, or accepting things that are considered just normal parts of aging?

In this episode, Shawna is joined by Jane Thurnell-Read, an independent author and blogger. She writes about health and wellbeing with a focus on
positive lifestyle solutions. She’s in her seventies and loves inspiring others. She enjoys lifting weights in the gym, riding her bike and eating healthily with a dusting of vegan chocolate. Her books are:

• Health & Wellbeing on a Budget: Simple and Affordable Strategies for a Healthier, Happier You
• The Science of Healthy Ageing: Unlocking the Secrets to Longevity, Vitality, and Disease Prevention
• 190 Weight Loss Hacks: How To Lose Weight Naturally and Permanently Without Stress
• Menopause Weight Loss: Live Well, Sleep Well, Stop Hot Flashes and Lose Weight

These are available on Amazon as a paperback and eBook, and on Audible and iTunes as an audiobook. Each book is full of evidence-based, practical information. Jane also posts gym videos, inspirational lifestyle quotes and vegan salad pics on her Instagram account @thrivingjane. Visit her website https://janethurnellread.com/ for more information.

In this conversation, we dive into:

• Why weight training is one of the most important tools for healthy aging

• Strength training during and after menopause

• Bone health, muscle mass, confidence, and independence as we age

• Why staying active is non-negotiable for long-term vitality

• How a plant-based lifestyle can support aging well

This episode is inspiring, practical, and a powerful reminder that it’s never too late to build strength, support your health, and thrive at any age.
