Tara Johnson was told she was too old and too fat to be online. She posted anyway.

Now at 53, this full-time caregiver and former affiliate marketer has turned her personal wellness journey into a thriving social media presence—with over 100K followers across platforms. She’s receiving daily PR packages, earning money from affiliate links, and proving that midlife women have serious influence—without needing to become “influencers.”

In this inspiring conversation, Tara joins Tiffany and Jeanette to share:

  • How GLP-1 medications kickstarted her content journey
  • Why she began sharing her story publicly (while working full-time, being a mom, and caring for her husband)
  • How she grew a loyal audience without a social media plan
  • Simple ways you can make real money online by sharing what you already love
  • Whether affiliate marketing is really worth it—and who it’s actually for

Whether you’re a stay-at-home mom, a lawyer, a late bloomer, or just someone who’s always texting your friends what to buy—this episode proves that affiliate marketing isn’t just for Gen Z. You don’t need to be famous. You just need to show up.
