Episode Description
In this episode, Jodi and Lexi discuss how levels of confidence change though the ages. It’s assumed that the older you get, the more confident you become but that’s not necessarily true. Research indicates that once you hit 60, confidence may decline based on life changes in one’s life. Some people experience feeling lonelier, low sense of worth( who needs us anymore! The kids are grown now what do we do?) It might also be a time to start anew! Jodi and Lexi get into a lively conversation about this topic. It’s a lot of fun!
The OLD Podcast
Podcast Episodes Available on Demand on VoiceAmerica Vareity Channel
You will never be as young as you are today. We're all getting older, no matter what age we are. Each passing year brings a new set of challenges, fears, beauty and joy. 62 year old host Jodi Harrison Bauer and her 30 year old daughter Lexi are here to talk all things aging to help you march fearlessly into your next chapter.
Jodi Harrison Bauer
Jodi Harrison Bauer is a two-time World Bikini Champion, founder and owner of JodiFit boutique fitness studio, host of Fearlessly Authentic podcast and the oldest woman to ever compete for the iconic Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, making global headlines and the Top 60 finalists in 2019.
Growing up, Jodi was a people pleaser and scared of everything. She graduated with a BA from Simmons College in 1983. Jodi’s life changed forever when, at 42 years old, she built the courage to take control of her own happiness. Since then, Jodi has worked relentlessly to better herself, build her business, nurture her relationships and create the life she knew she always deserved, one with passion and purpose.
In doing so, she hasn’t followed the rules or fit in the box society wanted to put her in. She started competing in fitness shows when she was “too old,” opened a business at 50 and got re-married eight years later. She competed against women more than half her age for a spot in Sports Illustrated Swim to prove age and beauty are not directly correlated.
Today she defines herself as an ageless warrior and an advocate against ageism. In her studio, on her podcast and across her social channels, Jodi focuses on empowering women.
Jodi is the proud mother of two grown daughters and a rescue pup. Outside of JodiFit, you can find her on the beach or dancing like no one’s watching. She lives by the words “Never let fear stop you from being YOU."
