Age of Lions Episode 027 - Chris DeHollander

You’re the Youngest You’ll Ever Be: Start Now

In this episode of Age of Lions, Mark sits down with functional health coach Chris DeHollander to talk about what it really takes to age with strength, energy, and purpose. Chris shares her personal story—from growing up in a deaf household and becoming a lifelong “figure it out” problem-solver, to teaching fitness for decades and ultimately building a thriving coaching platform that helps midlife women reclaim vitality.

Together, they unpack the mindset shift that happens in the second half of life: moving from hustle and achievement to presence, peace, and intentional living. Chris breaks down two of the biggest non-negotiables for aging well—protein and strength training—and explains why the goal isn’t “looking better,” but building the health needed to live out God’s calling with momentum. If you’ve felt stuck, tired, or tempted to settle into “this is just what getting older feels like,” this conversation will challenge you (in a good way) to start small, get uncomfortable, and step into your next season with confidence.
