You’ve probably seen the headlines.
TikTok’s once again in the hot seat, with lawmakers waving around ban talk like it’s their favorite party trick. 🙄
And I get it … if you’ve been using TikTok to grow your business, this feels a little like watching your favorite shopping mall board up its windows.
But here’s the thing, friend: we’re too smart to keep building businesses on platforms that feel like a bad boyfriend, hot one day, ghosting the next.
If you’re a smart woman over 50 trying to grow your business, bring in extra income, or finally get serious about your side hustle, let me introduce you to the platform that’s quietly winning the long game…
📌 Pinterest: Where Calm Meets Conversion
Unlike TikTok’s chaos, Pinterest is that quiet, classy friend who knows her worth and shows up with a plan.
And now? Pinterest just dropped an update that lets you share affiliate links directly in idea pins.
Let me say that again for the women in the back: Affiliate links. In. Idea. Pins.
That means you can share your product or service visually, without needing to send people off the platform, and start building real traffic to your offers. No dancing. No trends. No constant pressure to go viral.
👩💻 Why Pinterest Is PERFECT for Women 50+
Here’s what makes Pinterest your new business bestie:
✅ Search-Based Traffic – People search for solutions, so your content lasts longer than 24 hours. (Looking at you, TikTok.)
✅ Buyer-Ready Audience – Users are planners, shoppers, and decision-makers. Translation: people with credit cards in hand.
✅ Introvert-Friendly – No constant videos of your face are required. (But hey, if you love the camera, you do you!)
✅ Time-Saving – Pinterest content is repurposable. One pin can drive traffic for months.
And if you’re burned out from chasing trends and algorithms or trying to beat the next social media curveball… there’s a better way.

"Very well put. I've been with a health and nutrition company for over 26 years and I understand exactly what you are going through. I shiver to think what my health might be today at age 68 had I not stuck to my guns as far as practicing what I preach. Yes, I fall off the wagon regularly but my daily routine life reflects taking care of my health. That way I can keep up (somewhat) with my 7 grandchildren. You keep it up, Carla". 
"For most people the thought of venturing out there in pursuit of your dreams, in a place outside of your comfort zones is just what stops them. But I could sense your excitement not resentment in going against the competition. In planting your stake and truly making a difference in the clients experience. That's ultimately what matters, the rest just falls so easily into place. Thanks for that reminder"! 
Carla, I’ve got to say that I LOVE your focus on the joys and challenges facing women over 50. I’m definitely in that camp! I’ve been inspired by your candor, practical ideas, and refreshing determination to joyfully tackle life. The hours we’ve spent on the phone, in person, and through social media have enriched my life immeasurably. YOU are one Fiery Grandma, and I love your style! 
I have known Carla Gardiner for 6+ years. We met at a business training for bring business online. She is a business women at heart and willing to do the hard things to make the results show up. I have watched her run a business, work a job and take care of her family. She is a go getter when it comes to putting in the work to build her business to the level of being able to enjoy her grand kids.
She is the example that age is not a limit it is a tool for sharing knowledge to those she empowers to use their own skills and talents. Excuses are fuel to push her to learn and apply. I have seen her scared to death about implementing new technology and rock it out despite the learning curve.
I love watching you grow into your greatness Carla! Don’t slow down. 
"Carla, you are a model for me to follow. I love your site. And, I like what you have to say - very kind, very gracious. I have to say though that nothing in my life has ever been crystal clear". 
"I've known Carla for 5+ years and can tell you that she has lived every bit of this and more. We shared tears and laughs and hard work....you will enjoy getting to know Carla."
