Live Young, Die Ready: The No-BS Guide to Aging with Strength and Sanity
by Ricki Burton

What if aging wasn't something to dread, delay, or deny-but something to do well?

In Live Young, Die Ready, Ricki Burton delivers a bold, no-fluff guide to thriving through your 40s, 50s, and beyond-without gimmicks, toxic positivity, or 20-year-old Instagram advice. This isn't a book about anti-aging. It's a blueprint for pro-aging with power.

With a voice that's both deeply grounded and refreshingly real, Burton redefines what it means to live with energy, clarity, and strength-physically, mentally, and emotionally. You'll learn how to:

• Build muscle and metabolism that actually serve you past 40

• Reclaim sleep, regulate stress, and reset your hormonal health

• Create a nervous system that supports calm, not chaos

• Rewrite the toxic mindsets that shrink your life as you age

• Shift from surviving time to inhabiting your years fully

Backed by science but free of jargon, this book blends evidence-based strategies with grounded wisdom-and meets you right where you are. Whether you're burned out from trying everything, quietly terrified of getting older, or simply ready to live with more intention, this is your permission slip to stop waiting, stop shrinking, and start building a body and life that can carry you forward.

You're not behind. You're not too late.
You're not done.

You're just getting started.
