In today's milestone episode, we cover being unapologetic at 50 with Sharon Fields. Sharon is the founder of Beautiful Curves 365 and host of the Unapologetic @ 50 podcast. At Beautiful Curves 365 she mentors women on how to get unstuck and inspires them to become the healthiest version of themselves - inside and out!

With insights Sharon has gained throughout her life, she has made it her mission to inspire black women over 50 to celebrate themselves and achieve their goals. She believes that "this is about being 50 and fabulous. The goal is to celebrate life, celebrate who you are and the things that you've been through." Episode Highlights:

3:20 - Starting Over and Supporting Each Other During Difficult Times How can we support each other and connect during this pandemic? How can we overcome and learn from tough life events later in life? Sharon and I talk about our friendship and how we can support each other during difficult times.

6:00 - Give Yourself Permission to Take Care of Yourself How can you help others while being vulnerable at the same time? Do you confide in others about your worries and struggles?
