Empowering Women Over 50
Hi! I’m Jessica – and I’m proof that your most active, most energized years don’t have to be behind you.
I live in upstate New York, where winter is not for the faint of heart! We were buried under five feet of snow in one weekend in February 2025. This is real snow, real cold, and about five months of weather that makes outdoor workouts a serious act of commitment. That means I’ve had to get creative about staying fit year-round – and honestly, it’s made me a better, more resourceful workout person for it.
I’ve been a runner for over 25 years. I own a Peloton spin bike that I actually ride. And every winter when the roads are buried under a foot of snow, you’ll find me lifting weights and figuring out how to stay strong without leaving the house.
I created Fit and Sassy because I got tired of fitness content that wasn’t made for women like me. The advice that assumes you’re 28. The gear guides that ignore the fact that our bodies and our priorities have changed. The relentless pressure to look a certain way instead of just feel amazing.
This site is for women over 50 who are done with all of that.
Here you’ll find honest recommendations for workout gear, home equipment, and fitness products that actually work for real women living real lives. Everything I recommend is something I’d buy myself – or already have.
Welcome to Fit and Sassy. Let’s get moving.
