Episode Description:
A fall can happen in seconds — but its impact can last a lifetime.
Beyond the physical injuries, a fall can shake our confidence, independence, and wellbeing.
In this episode of Mind Your Being, I’m joined by Exercise Scientist Amy Wildner from the Wildmann Group — who specialises in preventing falls and injuries in older adults.
Together, we explore:
✨ Why fall prevention matters long before we reach old age
✨ The most common (and often overlooked) risk factors
✨ How strength, balance, and environment all play a role
✨ Simple, practical strategies to help you — or your loved ones — stay safe, strong, and independent.
Whether you’re in midlife, caring for aging parents, or simply want to age well — this episode is for you.
