Episode Description
In this episode of Fearlessly Authentic, I’m taking the time to unpack my own journey of self-care, courage, and transformation. People often tell me that my choices are brave, but for me, they’ve been essential steps to protect myself, reconnect with my self-worth, and learn to love myself again. I’ll be sharing some of the pivotal moments that led me to make tough decisions about my relationships and life, and the lessons I’ve learned along the way. Together, we’ll dive into how building a foundation of self-respect, discipline, and intentional self-care helped me reclaim my strength and embrace my authentic self. If you’re at a crossroads or looking for inspiration to start putting yourself first, I’ll be offering takeaways and reflective questions to help you honor your needs, set boundaries, and surround yourself with the right support. It’s time to unpack what self-love truly means—and why choosing yourself is one of the bravest choices you can make.

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."
