Aging Doesn’t Have to Mean More Pain

What if pain as we age isn’t just something we have to accept but instead, a powerful invitation to pay attention and take control?

Dr. Britni Barber, Doctor of Physical Therapy and founder of Rise Performance and Physical Therapy, is reshaping how we view aging, pain, and movement. She shares how our bodies change through the decades, why “common” doesn’t mean “normal,” and how small, consistent steps can support long-term strength and health.

We talk about...

• Why common pain isn’t the same as normal
• The myth that old injuries mean lifelong pain
• How your 30s and 40s recovery looks different than your 20s and why that’s okay
• Getting out of the all-or-nothing mindset around exercise
• Strength training as one of the most powerful tools for aging well
• The role of sleep, nutrition, and stress in managing pain

Dr. Britni helps us understand how to stay strong, recover smarter, and move better through every season of life. She reminds us that we’re not powerless when it comes to our bodies and that longevity isn’t just about how long we live, but how well.
