Movement Should Give You Energy, Not Drain It | Jeanae Dumas | Longevity & Healthy Ageing

What if the way you move your body… is either adding to your life - or taking away from it?

In this episode with Jeanae Dumas, we explore a completely different approach to movement - one that prioritises energy, connection and enjoyment.

We unpack:
- Why movement should feel good - not punishing
- How to reconnect with your body in a more intuitive way
- The role of music, rhythm and flow in physical wellbeing
- Why forcing workouts you don’t enjoy leads to inconsistency
- How to find a style of movement that actually works for you

This is a powerful reminder that exercise is not about discipline alone - it’s about how it makes you feel. If your current routine feels like a chore, this episode will shift your thinking.

The best movement is the one you want to come back to, because joy should be your performance metric.
