We catch up with New Zealand icon Robyn Malcolm, star of Pike River, After the Party, and Outrageous Fortune, on why age hasn’t slowed her down and how she prioritises her health and wellbeing. 

Morgan Penn also returns to share how she began her career as a sexologist and what it’s been like helping people apply her advice in real life.

Dave Monro from the Heart Foundation joins us to talk about the organisation’s purpose, the state of heart health in New Zealand, and the trends he’s seeing. 

Nicky Stryis shares her top fitness tips for staying strong over 50, including the importance of mindset and facing life’s challenges.

We also hear from Eugene Bareman of City Kickboxing about his new charity, The Walk Without Fear Trust, and how it’s helping people feel safer in their communities, as well as the role social media plays. 

Plus, Brodie Kane returns to talk about managing her mindset and staying grounded in the present.
