Written by: Irazema Garcia Approximately 85% of women experience symptoms in menopause. These symptoms run the gamut and include things like trouble sleeping, mood dysregulation, weight gain, and even skin issues. Even more shockingly, nine in ten women report never being educated about menopause or its symptoms. Wow. Only 10% of women know what to expect and how those symptoms will manifest themselves. It seems that something so prevalent should be shouted from the rooftops and lead to many conversations.

By: Thérèse Buckingham, NBC-HWC Is there a gift you didn’t get for the holidays? Most of us don’t expect to get everything on our list. However, the gift I’m thinking of probably wasn’t on your list. It wouldn’t have been wrapped in a box and tied up with a bow. It wouldn’t have been tucked into your stocking or enclosed in a card.
By: Thérèse Buckingham, NBC-HWC Let’s start with a true story. About four years ago I walked behind a lady who moved with considerable difficulty down the aisle of an airplane. When we reached the door she very slowly turned around and as she carefully lowered herself into the waiting wheelchair she looked up at me and with a deep sigh said, “Don’t get old. Die young.”
This hit me like a ton of bricks. It definitely wasn’t the advice I wanted to hear. After all, I had been telling people that I was going to live to 100! However, in hindsight, I realize now that her unsolicited advice had a great deal of value. It got me thinking about the future of my health. She made me realize that I don’t just want a long life, I want a long life full of vitality. This then became the theme for my health story. |
