Reality of the Rose

I am over the moon excited to welcome Natascha Hardee to the podcast today. You may remember her on Gerry Turner's season (the inaugural season) of The Golden Bachelor for her exit interview where she insisted that the women be given chairs for the rose ceremonies! Or you may remember her from season 10 of Bachelor in Paradise, where she expanded on the topic of chairs and wore a plethora of fabulous chair earrings! She is currently a proaging coach where she spends her time motivating women over 50 to embrace age and give up on the idea of "anti-aging". On this episode Natascha shares a lot of her experiences from her time with the Bachelor franchise, but also shares her personal and professional knowledge regarding believing that age is only a number. I hope that everyone enjoys this conversation as much as I did!Natascha's Instagram, TikTok and YouTube: @hardeelifeYouTube Link: https://youtu.be/vequ-S0xFzkIntro Music: www.bensound.com "Happy Rock"
