Caroline Baudino’s Journey From Soap Star to Social Media Powerhouse
Over 50 & Flourishing with Dominique SachseShow Notes
In this episode, I sit down with Caroline Baudino, the woman behind Shop With Caroline and a voice many women connect with. From her early years around Univision to the intense world of Spanish soap operas, Caroline has lived a life of constant change. Through motherhood, marriage, and losing her sense of self, she shares how she found her way back through small daily rituals and honesty. This conversation isn’t about fashion alone, it’s about identity, resilience, and what it looks like to rebuild yourself in midlife with clarity and faith. In this episode, we discuss: How Caroline went from soap opera actress to building a thriving business on social media in her late 40s The emotional toll of motherhood, marriage, and feeling lost after two kids under two Her candid experience with perimenopause, weight gain, anxiety, and finding strength again Why “getting up and getting dressed” became her lifeline and signature philosophy How childhood chaos and her parents’ complicated marriage shaped her identity The green flags she looked for in a partner — and how she manifested the love of her life What women don’t talk about enough when it comes to marriage, resentment, and midlife expectations How faith, gratitude, and daily rituals anchor her through life’s toughest seasons The deeper meaning behind her maximalist jewelry and why it became her emotional armor Why women in midlife are craving realness, connection, sisterhood, and permission to reinvent themselves

Vaginal health is an important part of women’s health at every age, but it’s something we still don’t talk about nearly enough. In this episode, I’m joined by Wendy Strgar, founder of Good Clean Love and Vaginal Biome Science, to talk about what happens to vaginal health during perimenopause and menopause, the role of estrogen and the vaginal microbiome, and how women can feel more comfortable and informed in their bodies. We also dive into vaginal care, intimacy, arousal, and why our sex lives don’t have to change just because we’re getting older. Wendy Strgar is an award-winning entrepreneur and women’s health innovator who pioneered BioMatched® technology and has led groundbreaking research on the vaginal microbiome.

Ever wonder why your body suddenly responds differently in midlife, even when you’re eating and exercising the same way? Ashley Koff, RD, joins us to break down the hormones that influence appetite, metabolism, blood sugar, and satiety (including GLP-1s) and how these systems can shift through perimenopause and menopause.
