In this episode, Dr Tanya tackles one of the biggest myths about ageing — that it's all down to your genes. She explains why your daily choices matter just as much as your DNA, and how stress, sleep, and mindset all show up on your skin over time.


What You'll Learn:

  • Why genetics is a "blueprint," not your destiny
  • How lifestyle choices can prolong or even change the course your genes set you on
  • What actually causes skin wrinkling beyond just age
  • How family history affects your risk for things like heart disease and diabetes — and how to work against it
  • Why chronic stress shows up on your skin and hair
  • The link between mental health and healthy ageing
  • Her three daily habits that make the biggest difference: sleep, hydration, and prioritising yourself
