Hello Fabulous! Welcome to our new series - a deep dive into the American Justice System. We're gonna start with a little bit of humor, and I would love it if you would submit all of your questions and concerns about our legal system as well as the people you'd like me to interview. I would absolutely love your input! It's time to dive into the wonderfully wacky world of American laws. Let's cut to the chase: America has some pretty strange rules on the books, and I’m here to dish out the details. First up, if you're craving bear claws while wandering the wilds of Maine, stick to the pastry kind, my friend. Actual bear claws? Down in Florida, where I reside among the eternal sunshine, there's a law that's music to no one's ears – singing off-key in your bathing suit is a big no-no. So, when in Florida, make sure those vocal cords are as finely tuned as your suntan. And don't even think about a melodic dip in the pool unless your pitch is perfect. Listen for more... and go to YouTube.com

Hello fabulous friends! Buckle up your seatbelts (or should I say your most fashionable belts) because we're about to dive into the wisdom pool with none other than Judge Stephanie Boyd. Judge Boyd kicks things off with a nostalgic trip down memory lane, back to her roots in Shreveport, Louisiana. Apparently, this judge was once a little hustler, earning her keep with good old-fashioned chores. Who knew yard work could lead to the bench? I can barely get my petunias to bloom on time. Boyd's escapades were all about a carefree childhood and the kind of positive vibes that we all wish we could bottle up and spritz on during those less-than-stellar days. We also didn't shy away from getting deep, pondering the big ideas like positive influence, positive parenting, and the art of not messing up your kids. It's all about drawing the line between oops-a-daisy and 'I meant to do that'—like remembering (or forgetting) your umbrella when the forecast screams rain. Speaking of forecasts, Judge Boyd and I have weathered our own personal storms, with their houses turning into indoor pools (I mean, floods, not the fun kind). Boyd's been camping out in a hotel since October and spilled the tea on hose maintenance (every 10 years, folks—put it in your calendars now). And because no chat is complete without some self-love, we talk about aging like fine wine and learning to say no more than a toddler. Hydration with fancy cups and straws? Check. Skincare routines that would make a K-beauty guru bow down? Double-check. Judge Boyd's even got a flower-and-purse ritual to remind us to treat ourselves, because let's face it, we deserve it. Now, let's get real for a sec. The world's not all rainbows and bookfests, and Judge Boyd's career reminds us of that. She's worn the defense attorney hat, represented kiddos in CPS cases, and is a huge advocate for treating everyone with kindness in the courtroom. She's not just there to lay down the law; she's there to listen, to understand, and to treat people as, well, people. Our fabulousJudge Boyd also drops some knowledge about transparency in the courts and utilizing platforms like YouTube to let people have a peek into the legal system. In conclusion, kids need boundaries, fiestas need medals, and we all need a little Paris in our lives (apparently, it's not as pricey as one would think!). As we usher out Judge Boyd from this enlightening episode, we're left with a gentle reminder: life's about the choices we make, the umbrellas we forget, and the wisdom to know when to grab a cup of water or a fancy straw.

Hello, my fabulous fashionistas! Welcome back to the "Fabulous Over Fifty" podcast! I'm your host, Jen Hardy, and let me tell you, today's episode with the Queen of Style - Nancy Queen, the reigning monarch of minimalist wardrobes, was both enlightening and, dare I say, life-changing! She is the star of "Shopping on Champagne" on YouTube. @shoppingonchampagne - go check it out!! Nancy opened up about her escapades in the fashion world, all from the comfort of her temporary East Coast command center, thanks to caring for her dad. And yes, despite the chaos, Nancy's surroundings were as stylish as the advice she dished out – No cluttered backgrounds or fashion faux pas in sight! Let's talk about the real runway show here: our closets. As we dove into the concept of capsule wardrobes, it became apparent that my own closet was the equivalent of  ‘Where's Waldo?’ – too many pieces with nowhere to be found purpose! Nancy's approach, by contrast, is like food shopping with a laser-focused grocery list – intentional, strategic, and leaving no room for those impulsive buys (looking at you, neon legwarmers from 1985). Her idea of "style words" and her passion for helping women find their personal fashion identity resonated with me; I could almost hear my eclectic collection of scarves sobbing as they realized their days were numbered. So sit back, or better yet, stand in front of your closet with a critical eye, and get ready to be inspired. Trust me, whether you're a seasoned fashion enthusiast or someone whose idea of a wild day is choosing the shirt that doesn't have coffee stains, this episode has something for everyone.

Hello Fabulous!! I don't know about you, but I love gadgets. I've always been into tech, since I was a kid. I remember when we brought home that shiny new apple to Computer. Little did we know that it was a dud, but it seems cutting edge of the time, and we were so excited! But now we’ve transformed our gadgets from mere tools to almost sentient companions that could give your pet a run for its money. There's a fine, sometimes nefarious line between convenience and dependency, where these smart devices learn our habits faster than we do theirs. We're sliding into an era where your coffee machine not only knows your preferred brew but also questions your life choices if you reach for that third cup. Today we’re talking about the top 3 ways you can have issues, and how to lock your tech down to save yourself some headaches. Listen for more!   Thank you for joining me today!

Hello fabulous friends! I In this week's episode of Fabulous Over 50, we're diving headfirst into the world of AI, and let me tell you, I am absolutely hooked! From vacuuming robots to smart light bulbs and security systems, I have found all sorts of ways to make my life a whole lot easier. And let's not forget about Chat GPT, the friendly little AI chatbot who helps me out in a pinch, writes uncomfortable letters for me, and even provides travel advice. Who knew AI could be so versatile and, dare I say, fabulous? But as much as I love embracing the AI revolution, I can't help but learn about the nefarious potential lurking in the shadows. Next week, we're going to peel back the curtain and take a closer look at the dark side of AI. But fear not, my friends, because after that, we've got an amazing guest lined up to dazzle us with fashion and style tips that will make getting dressed a joy, even on those "can't be bothered" days. So don't miss out - tune in, stay fabulous, and let's conquer the world of AI together!   Thank you for joining me today!

Greetings fabulous!  Today we dive into the glittering world of personal branding with none other than the punk-rock-spirited CPA, Heather Zeitzwolfe. Between shared technical snafus involving the mysterious entity that is Zoom and confessing our collective affinity for AppSumo deals (they really should start sponsoring us at this point), we spent more time laughing than I ever have during an episode!  And yes, that image of us decked out in sequins and leather while balancing our checkbooks is 100% accurate - our personal brands are all about shining bright and rocking out, no matter what the ledger says. So pull up your favorite chair, slap on some of that old-school eyeliner if you're feelin' it, and get ready for an episode that juggles everything from our punk days listening to Social Distortion  to the taxing conundrums of being an Amazon Vine reviewer (who knew reviewing could be so, well, taxable?). Heather not only brought down the house with her tales of spicing up the CPA world with a dash of rebellion, but she also gave us a peek behind the velvet curtain of personal reinvention. Trust me, whether you're a rockstar at heart or a glitter enthusiast, finding your personal brand over fifty isn't just possible—it's a downright hoot. Let's crank up the volume and celebrate the fabulous, misfit anthems of our lives.   Thank you for joining us today!

"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   Thank you for joining me!

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!
