Podcasts by Fabulous Over 50 - Inspiring Gen X
Welcome to Fabulous Over Fifty, where we encourage, inspire, and empower women to find their fabulousness! No matter where you live or how much money you have, fabulous is a state of mind - & we only get one life so let’s enjoy the heck out of it!
Are you tired of all the airbrushing that makes 80 year olds look 18, and our obsession with being size 4? Me too! That's why I started the fabulous over 50 podcast. It's time for us to celebrate being at an age where we stop giving two craps about what other people think and just live fabulously - whatever that means to each of us! I'm your host, Jen Hardy, and I'm going to take you on a journey to the fabulousness inside yourself. Because fabulous is a state of mind.
We’re going to take on the tough issues too, like ageism, dealing with menopause, and putting the ‘care’ back into healthcare. You know what I'm talking about!
Tune in, buckle up, and hold on, because you’re in for a heck of a ride! Have something you’d like to hear about? Go to jenhardy.net/contact, send a message and let me know, because this is your show too!
BONUS - we also have monthly episodes of the Good Human Guild Award, where we honor good people doing good things, because the world needs more good news.
Are you a woman over 50 who’s ready to charge into the rest of your life and live it fabulously? Then you’ve come to the right place!
