Jen's International Women's Day State of the State on Midlife Women

You're Not Too F***ing Old! to Step Into the Midlife Spotlight!

On International Women's Day, I hosted a virtual State of the State. I had the pleasure of speaking to so many of you about the state of midlife women today, where we've been, and all the exciting opportunities ahead of us. I'm bringing my State of the State to you today as it was potent and powerful and left everyone feeling inspired, connected, and less alone, which is ALWAYS my goal.

If you missed out, this is a great time to remind you to subscribe to my newsletter HERE so you never miss any of my events. I love bringing women together and will be doing many types of events this year, so I don't want you to miss out!

Today on The Jen Marples Show, I discuss:

• The sacrifices women have made for us (our mothers, grandmothers, female collective).
• Challenges midlife women (and all women) face: misogyny, ageism, sexism, and pay disparity. 
• How internalized misogyny holds us back and creates fear, competition, and lack.
• The importance of grace, healing our trauma, and kicking fear to the curb.
• Collaboration over competition is imperative for our collective to succeed.
• The importance of community and connection.
• You're not too old to chase your dreams and redefine success on your terms.

Also, when all else fails, remember to say to yourself: I'm Too F***ing Fabulous for This Sh*t! and give the proverbial finger to the patriarchy and systems keeping us down, and just be FABULOUS! You're Not Too F***ing Old!

I hope you enjoyed today’s show! If you’d like to find out more about how I can help you achieve your business or life dreams, you can book a complimentary 20-minute call HERE.
