What do you do when two people who live together, have very different attitudes towards their health and habits? Host Amelia Phillips delves into the mindset and protocols of Liberty and Eliza, two sisters who you would recognise from Channel 9's The Block. Liberty, dubbed 'the optimiser' loves anything to do with health and fitness, Eliza just doesn't see the point. Both girls joined the new TV show Do You Want to Live Forever as an experiment to boost their longevity. In this episode we discover their personal motivations for joining, the different approaches Amelia took in designing their plans, and how they are doing now, almost six months on. A great listen especially for anyone who has a loved one with very different attitudes towards their health (which can be frustrating!).
Note: To hear a detailed deep dive into their specific results, listen to episode 164.
About the guests:
Fan-favourite sisters from The Block describe themselves as 'chalk and cheese'.
Eliza (38yo), enjoys massages and cooking but neglects her health habits, fearing internal deterioration despite her youthful appearance. Outspoken and sceptical, she battles with erratic eating, irregular exercise and inconsistent sleeping patterns. Concerned about her high cholesterol and fertility, she seeks clarity to amend her ways. Eliza values mental health but struggles to prioritise her own wellbeing. She works in Victoria as a personal assistant.
Liberty (35yo), health-conscious and routine-driven, prioritises fitness and self-care for her physical and mental wellbeing. A dedicated gym-goer, she seeks longevity and explores various health strategies. While Liberty has a great focus on her health and exercise routine, her stress levels need to be considered. Open-minded and driven, Liberty embraces new techniques to defy ageing, eager to expand her knowledge for a vibrant life ahead. Liberty works in Victoria as an Integration Producer.
