This week’s episode is a celebration, and I’m thrilled to have my dear friend Julie Gordon White, founder and CEO of MenoWell energy bars, join me. We’re diving into everything from menopause to manifesting your dreams, and yes, even twerking in Vegas! So, grab your favorite beverage (maybe a MenoWell bar!), and let’s get into it.
200 Episodes of Saying “You’re Not Too F*cking Old!”
From the very first episode, the Jen Marples Show has had one goal: to empower you to step into the midlife spotlight and claim all that you desire. We’ve been shouting “You’re not too f*cking old!” to the universe, and we’re not stopping anytime soon. This 200th episode is a testament to that mission.
Honestly, if you had told me years ago that I’d have a podcast with 200 episodes, I wouldn’t have believed you. But I took one small step, and that’s what I want to encourage all of you to do today. That one small step can lead to incredible things. It led me to meeting the most amazing women on this journey, like Julie and so many of you!
Vegas, Baby! The Hottest Menopause Party
Speaking of amazing women, I just got back from Tamsen Fadal’s “Hottest Menopause Party” in Las Vegas. What an experience! Imagine 60,000 people coming together to celebrate and educate about menopause. It was empowering, it was eye-opening, and yes, it was a little bit wild!
I was in the live studio audience with Julie, and let me tell you, Vegas energy is something else. But this wasn’t just any Vegas trip. This was about connecting with incredible women, many of whom are leading this midlife revolution. We had experts, doctors, and even celebrities like Naomi Watts and Halle Berry sharing their stories and spreading the message of empowerment.
And yes, there was twerking. 🙈 I got challenged to a dance-off, and with pink pom-poms in hand, I went for it! It was a moment that perfectly encapsulates the “You’re not too f*cking old” spirit. Who says we can’t let loose, have fun, and be our authentic selves at any age? My son might have been a little horrified, but I wouldn’t change a thing! That’s midlife—doing what you want and not caring what anyone else thinks!
The Power of Community and Collaboration
One of the biggest takeaways from the Vegas event was the incredible sense of community and collaboration. There’s no competition here, ladies. We’re all in this together, supporting and uplifting each other. It’s about women finding their strength and courage, and knowing they’re not alone.
I met so many inspiring women, and it reminded me why I started this podcast in the first place. It’s about creating a space where we can connect, share, and grow together. Whether you’re starting a business, pursuing a passion, or simply navigating midlife, having a supportive community is everything.
Julie and I talked about how we met and how important it is to reach out and connect with others. Don’t be afraid to DM someone on Instagram, ask someone for coffee, or attend an event. You never know who you might meet, and how those connections might change your life.
Coach Julie’s Wisdom: The Business Love Triangle
Julie, who used to be an executive business coach, shared some incredible wisdom during our conversation. One of my favorite things she said was about the “business love triangle”:
- Love who you serve: Focus on the people you want to help.
- Serve what you love: Pursue your passions and what brings you joy.
- Serve it with those who love both: Collaborate with like-minded individuals who share your vision.
This really resonated with me. When you focus on who you’re serving and why you’re doing what you’re doing, the “how” starts to fall into place. It’s all about having a mission and passion that drives you, especially when things get tough.
MenoWell Bars & a Special Giveaway!
Of course, we can’t forget about Julie’s amazing MenoWell bars! These bars are seriously a game-changer. Made with only the good stuff—maca, protein, fiber, and delicious flavors—they’re the perfect power food for the pause. And guess what? We’re doing a giveaway!
To celebrate 200 episodes, we’re giving away three boxes of MenoWell bars. To enter, simply:
- Share this podcast episode (screenshot and post).
- Follow @mymenowell and @jenmarples on Instagram.
- Tag a friend in your post.
We’ll pick three winners at the end of the week, so don’t miss out!

We’re just getting started, and I have so many more exciting things planned for the Jen Marples Show. Stay tuned for more amazing guests, more solo episodes, and more ways to help you say “You’re not too f*cking old!” to whatever you want to do.
Remember, ladies, it’s your time to shine. Don’t sit on your dreams. Take that one small step, and let’s rock midlife together!
