Welcome to Over 50 & Flourishing, the show for any woman who feels like she lost her compass in the sea of midlife. I’m here to tell you it’s never too late to change your course and awaken the healthy, wise, and wonderful woman within. My name is Dominique Sachse, and I love to ask questions, which was why I spent nearly three decades of my life in the TV news business. I also started a YouTube channel in 2014 to connect intimately with my community, and I took an even deeper dive in my book Life Makeover - Embrace The Bold, Beautiful and Blessed You. I’ll be the first to say, I’ve made mistakes, and I’m not afraid to be vulnerable and learn from them. I mean let’s face it, this stage of life can be complicated. Children are moving out, relationships are being examined, our parents are aging, and we’re having to manage all of this along with our menopause! It’s easy to lose sight of ourselves, but can I just say.. we matter. So, whether it’s finding ways to enhance and celebrate our own beauty, taking bold steps toward living our best life in the second half of life, finding ways to be healthier, happier, and more spiritually connected, I will bring you thinkers and innovators who share the same passion of flushing out these ideas. It’s my goal to leave us all feeling inspired, thought and intent-driven, and with a sense of purpose in whatever we pursue. Let’s celebrate growing older together and embrace our Prime. It’s our time!
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
