In Episode 34 of the HerStory Podcast, Kylie King is joined by the vibrant and unapologetic Chrissy Hearn. Known to her social media following as Chrissy 50 and Cranky, Chrissy is on a mission to ensure that women over 50 remain visible, vocal, and empowered. From her early days as a powerhouse Tupperware manager to her current success as a User Generated Content (UGC) creator and podcaster, Chrissy’s journey is a masterclass in reinventing oneself at any age.

The conversation dives into the world of UGC, where Chrissy explains how she turned her love for sharing favorite products with friends into a thriving business working with major brands. Chrissy also shares the “rabbit hole” story of how she ended up on the Ultimate World Cruise alongside influencer Christian Hull, and her surreal experience meeting Dolly Parton’s photographer. Whether she’s going viral with a shower cap video or launching her own podcast, Can I Just Clarify?, Chrissy’s message is clear: “Don’t sit on the couch and wither away—get out there and be seen.”
