Meet Neil And Amy (Founders of Better With Age Together)
Another great episode from our Spotlight series coming up.
Joining us today are the people behind Better With Age Together — Neil and Amy, with a platform built around a simple but often overlooked idea: ageing well isn’t about chasing youth, but about building strength, connection, and habits that support life as it actually unfolds. Through thoughtful, grounded content, they explore what it really means to grow older with intention, whether that’s through movement, mindset, relationships, or shared routines that stand the test of time.
Focused on sustainability rather than extremes, their work resonates with those navigating midlife who want to feel capable, connected, and confident in the years ahead. At its core, Better With Age Together is about doing the work,
and doing it together.
What inspired you to start Better With Age Together?
We just didn’t see many people talking about aging together. Health, marriage, purpose, it all felt really separated, especially in midlife. This season felt like an invitation to slow down, be more intentional, and build something that reflected real life. A life where you’re navigating change side by side and not alone. We feel like many people might have lost themselves and their connection in marriage along the journey of raising kids and we felt led to help reconnect and change this to ensure legacy and longevity.
What does “better with age” really mean to you?
To us, it’s about becoming more grounded as the years go on. We want to be stronger physically, clearer mentally, and more connected relationally. It’s not about trying to look younger or fit into a bikini, it’s about stewarding this season well and choosing to live it with purpose for longevity and health.
Who were you thinking about when you started sharing this content?
People in midlife who are doing “okay” on the outside but feel that nudge inside that there’s more available to them in this chapter such as more strength, more energy, more connection if they’re willing to be intentional and make changes together.
Why is shared growth so important as we age?
Because growth changes when you’re not doing it alone. When couples grow together, it strengthens trust, communication, and commitment. We really believe we were designed for community, and marriage is one of the most
powerful places to live that out. Plus, it is just more fun when you are growing and changing together. It is statistically true that you are more successful at reaching goals when you have community, accountability and support.
Why do you talk so much about consistency instead of intensity?
Because intensity usually comes from pressure or urgency, and it rarely lasts. Consistency comes from grace and realistic rhythms. Especially in midlife, real life matters and consistency is what actually leads to sustainable change. If it is not sustainable it will fade or you will just give up because it is too hard.
What misconceptions do you see around ageing and fitness?
A big one is that decline is inevitable and strength isn’t necessary anymore. We’ve actually seen the opposite, strength gives people confidence, independence, and the ability to keep doing the things they love as they age. We are personally seeing parents mentally decline at a young age and feel now more than ever that what we do NOW matters. What we eat, how we move and how we use our brains.
What habits make the biggest difference after 50?
Strength training, daily movement like walking, eating enough protein, protecting sleep and staying connected to people who matter. Health isn’t just about your body & mind; it’s about your relationships and your overall well-being. Brain cognition is super close to our hearts and we want to do all we can to keep it from declining.
How do relationships change in midlife?
Midlife brings a lot of transition, kids leave, routines shift, priorities change. Protecting the relationship means choosing intention over autopilot and being willing to grow together instead of drifting apart. Inviting God into everyday life helps keep that foundation steady. We also have to nourish outside relationships with friends and family because unfortunately one of us will leave this life first and the other needs to have other strong relationships and support systems in place.
Why does community matter so much in this season?
Because motivation naturally comes and goes. Community provides encouragement, accountability, support and perspective. It reminds people they’re not behind and they’re not alone in this stage of life. It is helpful to have other people walking the same journey and sharing the twists, turns, ups and downs of this life. Also realizing that when you do hit certain goals or milestones, the journey has to continue to sustain those goals or make new goals.
Where do you hope this platform goes in the future?
We hope it becomes a place people turn to when they’re ready to build a strong, meaningful Chapter 2. A season with healthier bodies, deeper relationships, a clearer sense of purpose and build a solid legacy for their families. We want to create something that feels supportive yet not overwhelming, inspirational and fun all at the same time. We are only promised today, so let’s make it the best we can.
As our conversation with Neil and Amy comes to a close, it’s clear that ageing well isn’t about chasing youth — it’s about choosing presence, purpose, and connection in the life you have right now. What they’ve built with Better With Age Together reminds us that strength — physical, relational, and emotional — comes from steady, thoughtful habits rooted in compassion for ourselves and those we love.
Their journey invites us all to rethink the stories we tell about midlife: to celebrate the power of consistency over intensity, to lean into community as a source of encouragement and accountability, and to steward this chapter with intention rather than resistance.
Whether you’re navigating changes in your body, your relationships, or your sense of self, Neil and Amy’s insights offer a grounded invitation: don’t walk this season alone — grow better together, with curiosity, compassion, and connection lighting the way.
