Hi, I'm Maud Meates-Dennis, founder of Defy Age Limits. I'm known as The Vitality Doctor.

I’m here to show you that getting older doesn't need to be stressful. Yes, there can be challenges over this time of transition around the age of 50 - but that's all it is. A transition, not a life sentence.

If you make simple changes that act at a cellular level, you can change how you age and actually get to a place where you don't have to just endure aging but you love getting older and are excited for your future.

After more than 40 years in medicine, I’ve transitioned into a new chapter—as a Healthy Aging Strategist. I'll help you cut through the overwhelming flood of health and wellness information. You can control how you age and live with vitality, freedom, and joy for decades to come.

How It All Began

My personal self-healing/self-love journey began during one of the hardest times of my life. My stepson, Josh, died in a tragic motorbike accident. It felt as if the shine had gone from life.

This period coincided with the onset of menopause when my body got a mind of its own and I felt out of control, as though aging and life were happening to me, not for me.

I hated the feeling of helplessness. Then one day, something shifted. While I was driving in the city, I saw the snow-capped mountains rising majestically in the distance. The snow was glistening in the sun and the sky was blue with no clouds to be seen. For the first time in what felt like forever, I felt joy.

That moment was a turning point. I realized that despite what my external world looked like, I could still find joy—and if I could control my emotions, maybe I could take control of my physical state as well.

I felt empowered. it was a huge shift.
