"There's a fine line between glittery and tacky. Very fine line. I try to stay on the correct side of that line. I am quite sure that I pass it often." - Jen Hardy

Hello fabulous!

My mom always said that glitter is the herpes of the craft world! The more I think about it, the more it makes sense. Like herpes, glitter just doesn't seem to go away. But now that I'm over 50, I've decided to embrace the sparkle. And you know what? It's working! People are too busy noticing the glitter to pay much attention to the wrinkles. So, why not throw a little sparkle on those laugh lines? As I always say, if it sparkles, it's fabulous!

Speaking of fabulous, I recently attended Podfest, and let me tell you, the struggle of getting ready in the morning is real. But I've discovered a secret that has changed the game for me. Get yourself a cute hat, bling it out, throw on a little lipstick, and voilà, you've got a glamorous look in no time. Who knew getting ready could be that simple? So whether you're rocking the glitter and sequins or just living that relaxed life, find what makes you feel fabulous and own it!

Until next time, stay fabulous, my friends.

Hello Beautiful!

You know who you are...you learned to dance with your friends at slumber parties, not from YouTube. You sat for hours on the weekends with the phone cord wrapping and unwrapping around your fingers while you giggled the night away. And you always knew who your "friends" were. 

You are still just as beautiful, more worthy, and wise beyond measure! Remember that.

I've realized that there's no bad hair day a little glitter and glam can't solve....

No matter what's happening out there, sometimes we just need to dance to a great perky song, and while it might not be "great," it is perky!! (and I wrote it just for you)

So dance and smile for me today & I'll be back to talk to you soon.

Love, 

Jen

Hey there fabulous friend!

I just had to share my excitement with you about my upcoming trip to Podfest. I can't help but feel like a kid at Christmas when I think about all the fabulous friends I'm going to see and the incredible time we'll have talking about all things podcasting.

It's not just about the tech and learning, but the friendships and connections that make the whole experience so special. I mean, who wouldn't be excited about a giant love fest of shared interests and mutual respect, right? If you're thinking about joining the podcasting world, I'd say, "come on in, the water's fine!" And if you need a ticket, well, that's what husband and I are here for—volunteer coordinators with the hookup. As I like to say, "you belong anywhere you go!"

On another note, I'm beyond thrilled to introduce you to my latest passion project, Jen's Friends. It's like a daily dose of sunshine delivered right to your inbox, specially designed to make you feel like the amazing person you are. I mean, who doesn't want a virtual hug and a daily reminder that they're fabulous, right?

If you know someone who could use a little extra love in their inbox, send them my way at jenhardy.net/friends. Let's spread the fabulousness together! And remember, stay tuned, and stay fabulous, my friends!

Hey there, beautiful!

This is Jen Hardy coming to you with some serious and not-so-serious thoughts on aging, and how we perceive it. Because life after 50 can be fabulous! In this episode, we talked about how society tends to sideline us just because of our age. But you know what? We're not having any of that negativity. This is a new year & we're changing our mindset! We're embracing our age like a fine wine and saying no to ageism!

In this episode I'm sharing some personal experiences and tips on embracing your age, surrounding yourself with positive people, taking care of your physical and mental health, and chasing your dreams.  After all, life is too short not to enjoy every moment. So, sit back, relax, and get ready to find the fabulosity in this journey we call life. Can't wait to catch you in the next episode!

And did I mention we're also going to have an interesting chat about sex next time with an expert? So, get ready to laugh, learn, and maybe blush a bit.

In the latest episode of the Fabulous Over 50 podcast, we're diving into the unspoken truths about menopause.

Guest Kristin Mallon covers everything from the importance of weight-bearing exercise and bone health to the role of supplements and diet in managing menopausal symptoms. Kristin busts myths, offers actionable advice, and highlights the significance of seeking a menopause specialist for personalized guidance.

From debunking misconceptions to shedding light on hormone imbalances and mental health in midlife, this episode serves up practical insights, aha moments, and a dash of humor to empower women to embrace and navigate this transformative phase with confidence and knowledge.

Tune in to "Fabulous Over 50: The Talk 2" for an entertaining, informative, and downright fabulous discussion on menopause. Whether you're approaching 50, in the midst of it, or beyond, this episode promises to enlighten, inspire, and prepare you for the exciting (and meh) changes your body is and will go through. So, grab your favorite beverage, settle into a cozy spot, and get ready to laugh, learn, and embrace the fabulousness of menopause!

Hey there, fabulous listeners! It's Jen Hardy, and I am beyond thrilled to be back with you today. Let me just say, the past month has been absolutely incredible. I had the privilege of visiting my daughter in Europe and let me tell you, it was a whirlwind adventure. We explored five countries in just two and a half weeks, indulging in unforgettable experiences like having lunch in the Eiffel Tower and taking a bike ride to the Louvre. But that's not all! We also had the opportunity to accompany my husband to the place he was stationed during the 1st Gulf War, which brought him immense closure and allowed us to truly connect on a deeper level. I highly recommend this journey if you have the chance, especially if you're married to someone who has served in the military.

Now, onto some exciting news on the home front. We have seven children, ranging from 12 to 34 years old, but get ready for a big surprise - we're hoping to welcome a 5-year-old into our lives! It's emotional, overwhelming, and absolutely wonderful, and I promise to share more about this incredible journey in a future episode. But for now, I just want to apologize for my absence and express my gratitude for your understanding. 

Thank you for joining me today!

Welcome to our series, "A Man's Perspective" that brings the insight of 4 men, who are over 50, to the Fabulous Over 50 Podcast. We'll be showcasing their insights throughout the month of September in order to gain new perspective & hear about what they're really thinking about marriage & aging.

In today's conversation, my husband Dave & I delve into the topic of marriage after menopause and how couples can keep their spark alive. While sensuality is part of the discussion. We’re keeping it PG, no TMI here, but we do discuss sensuality. 

We’re sharing own experiences and offer advice on maintaining a strong relationship as our bodies and lives change, as well as addressing the common concerns of self-consciousness and the fear of husbands leaving for younger partners. Tune in as we provide helpful tips for reconnecting and finding the balance in an empty nest. And Dave’s got some great thoughts for husbands too!

Hello Fabulous!!

In this special episode, we're taking a break from our usual content, as we dive into the heart of what matters most - connecting with each and every one of you. I know that not everyone listening is in a relationship, so before we continue with our Men's Perspective Month, I wanted to take a moment to let you know that I love you.

I may not know your personal circumstances, I understand that we all face challenges and struggles in our lives. No matter where we come from, how much we have, or what we're going through, we all have our own battles. Even those who seem to have it all together on the outside are fighting silent battles within. No matter what you're going through, you are loved!!

Thank you for joining me today!

If you know someone who needs to hear this message, it would be an honor to have you share it with them. Thank you!

Welcome to our new series, "A Man's Perspective" that brings the insight of 4 men, who are over 50, to the Fabulous Over 50 Podcast. We'll be showcasing their insights throughout the month of September in order to gain new perspective & hear about what they're really thinking about marriage & aging.

Today we're diving deep into the world of men's perspectives with a special guest, the one and only Greg Gerber from Forward from 50. We've gotten together to discuss a range of topics, from the pressures men face in today's society to finding purpose and fulfillment after retirement. 

This conversation is about to get real &  insightful. So grab your favorite beverage, sit back, and join us as we explore a man's perspective in this fabulous episode! 

In a world where toxic masculinity and mansplaining accusations have left many men feeling misunderstood and undervalued, it's no wonder they sometimes retreat from leadership roles. But what are the consequences of this withdrawal? How does it affect society as a whole? We'll tackle these questions head-on and uncover the importance of encouraging men to pursue their passions and regain their sense of purpose.
