Think you know how to walk? Think again.

In this episode of Asking for a Friend, I’m joined by international health expert Joanna Hall, founder of the WalkActive Method. Joanna reveals how improving your walking technique can dramatically boost posture, joint health, hormone balance, and even cognitive function—all especially important in midlife.

With 30+ years in sports science, Joanna explains how most of us are walking inefficiently, reinforcing poor movement patterns and joint strain. Her science-backed method helps women over 40 engage the right muscles, improve alignment, and walk better—not just more.

We explore why your hips, feet, and posture matter, how lifestyle habits and old injuries contribute to walking issues, and how small shifts can lead to major changes in strength, confidence, and longevity.

👉 Ready to walk your way to better health? Tune in and discover how to make every step count.
