🦋🪞😈Beauty and the Aging Beast.

🥳Diane calls 🪞BEAUTY AND THE AGING BEAST😈 her “Sweet Sixteen” episode because this show marks the 16th episode🎂 for her ✂️BANGS ‘N’ BOTOX💉 podcast. A year has passed, and she’s STILL finding plenty to talk about, laugh about, and think about that relate to aging. 📢 ✚ 🧐✚😅🟰 🎧🔥 ❓What IS beauty❓is a ponderable question you can lose an entire weekend over. And snap on that aging lens that adds fine and not-so-fine lines? Whew! You’ll enter a contemplative state like no other. 💯 🧖🏻‍♀️🫧🧴💕BEAUTY AND THE AGING BEAST doubles down on the idea that beauty isn’t about your skin. It’s about your story. 📖 (PS that doesn’t mean you can’t exercise self-care in any way you see fit. Diane talks about that, specifically, in her featured “Storytime with Diane” piece 🐌Snail Gel.) 😂🤣🤪😁Have no fear! Diane has attached the humor lens, providing plenty of funny sit-down standup takes on the topic of BEAUTY...which is a state of mental and physical being you'll NEVER age out of!❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 ✅To round out the multitude of highly engaging deliverables, Diane provides a thematic groove with the extremely loopable 🟢ᯤSpotify playlist she’s put together—YOU’RE BEAUTIFUL—and, yes, YOU are! ▶︎ •၊၊||၊|။|||| | 𝒑𝒍𝒂𝒚𝒍𝒊𝒔𝒕♪ ༘⋆🔗You’ll want to bookmark this linkᯓ➤ https://bit.ly/4fnihD4 [https://bit.ly/4fnihD4] ✂️BANGS ‘N’ BOTOX💉 WOMEN WHO WEAR AGING WELL is guaranteed to pump you up mentally and physically. 🏋🏼‍♀️🪄

🎢♀️💦 THE NEVER-PAUSE.

⋆.˚✮🎧✮˚.⋆ In this laugh-out-loud episode of BANGS ‘N’ BOTOX, Diane dives into her Storytime segment later in the show📖🏰—“Coming in by a Whisker”—when she talks about whiskers belonging on cats, not on her chin, thank you very much. 🐈 ✨ 𝓦𝓮𝓵𝓬𝓸𝓂𝓮 ✨to what Diane calls THE NEVER-PAUSE—that magical phase of life when menopause symptoms don’t just visit…they move in, unpack, and refuse to leave. 🚚🧳🏡 Hot flashes? 🔥Of course. Surprise facial hair? 🪒Naturally. A sneeze that doubles as a high-stakes “Please, don’t let me embarrass myself” gamble? 🎰 Absolutely. 💯 Add in heart palpitations that feel like cardio (without the benefit of actual exercise), 🏋🏽💪🏼🏃🏻‍♀️❓and a body chemistry plot twist that keeps deodorant working overtime—and you’ve got a full-blown hormonal variety show. 📺 🎙️But Diane doesn’t just survive it—she narrates it. With razor-sharp humor and zero shame, she turns the chaos into comedy, proving that if menopause won’t pause, neither will the punchlines. 😂🥊This episode is a hilarious, painfully relatable reminder that sometimes the only thing to do is laugh…preferably before you sneeze. 🤧 ♫⋆｡♪₊˚♬ﾟ.AND she’s put together a smokin’ hot Menopause-Themed playlist [https://bit.ly/3QQvXhd] you didn’t know you needed…until NOW. ❤️‍🔥 ❓📢Ready to feel seen, heard, and slightly less alone in the hormonal jungle? 🎙️Tune in, laugh hard, and then grab her📙companion book BANGS ‘N’ BOTOX [https://www.amazon.com/BANGS-BOTOX-Journey-Through-Preservatives/dp/0981482937/ref=sr_1_1?crid=SQA4A6BP9E1L&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.3Q7kSRrGqKnmpouVaBTHUhkJDZxMx20ILDaKhmBb0j2eqkmgTe_zS70T5ErebvJXkZvGENFdTyvo7M7v13QFN8HlF0eKQp2WlW8_RJdQKlUO4zEpsz_OD1DzTFYqsCArsiODpSIVfWGt1PahUAs6QWVs2k8v_AoehKwRfnRZdivjMcLHrzvdbto-x5wzfJqR.h-5tJDSuVPq69nVigp1Q-5nPFMk52fuHXFapGbIK2YU&dib_tag=se&keywords=diane+dean-epps&qid=1776874170&s=books&sprefix=diane+dean-epp%2Cstripbooks%2C238&sr=1-1] for even more unapologetic, side-splitting truths about life after the “pause” that never actually pauses.

🏳️🫦💃Hip, Hip, Hooray!

✅This episode falls squarely into the “write—and talk about—what you know” category. 🪶📜 🦉How so❓ Our BANGS ‘N’ BOTOX [https://www.amazon.com/BANGS-BOTOX-Journey-Through-Preservatives/dp/0981482937/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&dib_tag=se&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.sqQ-yePcd0lLOgxYBR8n_EPztfsibiAXyQT1sl4I7C0.CAfVRUElBupDVZHmemYkWkWkUynRGdiVvhVoOK9A8ug&qid=1774385458&sr=1-1] Hostess with the Mostest has a hip injury that unfathomable optimism, bold make-up, 💄and strong denial can't heal, so she’s going to need a replacement part. 🆕 In the blink of an eye Diane says she’s gone from answering the question, “What’s your major in college” to “Who’s your orthopedic surgeon?” 👀 🙃Humor being Diane’s coping mechanism of choice means she’s managed to find the funny in this aging body part experience.  🤣😂🤣 🙋‍♀️You know how you keep hitting a bottle of lotion after turning it upside down to get all the lotion out of the bottle out? 🧴Yeah, so the equivalent of that is what she’s been doing with her hip joint for about 4 years. Not having a hip issue? Just swap out “hip” and insert the name of the body part that works—or isn’t working—for you. 🦶 🦵💪 🎙️In this episode’s amusing thematic anecdote, “I’ve got to get out of this joint,” Diane riffs on her stages of structural failure acceptance plus she tells us the ways she knew it was time to consult someone other than WebMD. ⚕️ 👩‍🍳Mixed in with this funny, relatable, and honest episode about aging’s effects is an actual musical mix. 📼⋆.˚🎧Who doesn’t LOVE a fun playlist? And a THEMED playlist?
