60 - How we're Staying Healthy in our Late 20's

60 - How we're Staying Healthy in our Late 20's

When we got to a certain age, we're seeing our friends and us picking some sort of hobby that will determine our personality for the next several years. Maybe it's podcasting (I might be guilty), rebuilding cars, baking bread, or running a marathon to name a few... In this episode we chat about what we're doing to stay active/fit, and maybe we can reflect on this in a few years' time thanking our younger selves that we chose some of these things that we're doing to stay healthy.

This episode is in partnership with the Australian Government. @healthgovau
