HAPPINESS
& MINDFULNESS
MY MESSAGE TO MIDLIFE WOMEN
I’ve worked in health and wellness over 30 years. I’ve grown up with the industry, its methodology, solutions and marketing; I’ve learned what works and doesn’t. I’m especially attuned to what doesn’t work for midlife women because I am one.
Being blunt, the health and wellness industry is not serving us at all—in fact, it’s creating barriers to well-being.
