In this episode of Mom to MORE®, host Sharon Macey welcomes Avril McClement, a mom, grandmother, and two-time HYROX World Champion who’s proving that reinvention doesn’t have an age limit. From Motherhood to marathons and from the UK’s National Health Service to the global fitness stage, Avril’s journey is a masterclass in resilience and redefining what’s possible after motherhood.
Avril shares how she turned heartbreak, Depression, and Divorce into fuel for a new beginning, finding purpose, strength, and confidence through movement. Now in her 60s, she’s breaking world records, inspiring women worldwide, and reminding us that it’s never too late to rewrite your story.
Tune in for a powerful conversation about courage, community, and midlife reinvention, and discover how age can be your greatest advantage in becoming your most authentic, unstoppable self.
