Julie Korte

Personal wellbeing and ageing contributor

Julie Korte contributes Activated Living! to Dream Big And Act Fast. Her chapter begins with the loss of her brother and memories of illness affecting her parents, experiences she describes as the motivation for taking a closer interest in her own wellbeing.

Her writing considers the years beyond full-time work and the kind of daily life she hopes to enjoy. Julie recounts changing food and household choices, attending educational events and exploring ideas she associates with the term biohacking.

The chapter gives the personal background to her Activated Living interests. It reflects her wish to remain active and engaged, and to think more deliberately about familiar routines.

Julie's contribution presents her own observations and beliefs. The source does not provide a clinical professional qualification, and her account does not establish that a product or lifestyle practice repairs cellular damage, treats illness or allows prescribed medication to be stopped. The biographical focus is the family experience and curiosity that led her to write.
