WELLNESS

I think of my heart like the engine that keeps my kids laughing, my husband safe, and my life moving. That’s why I focus on prevention for women’s heart health: smart nutrition (lean proteins, healthy fats, lots of vegetables), regular movement (walking, aerobic exercise, strength training), and solid rest (good sleep and stress management). I also keep an eye on blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar and inflammation, limit smoking and alcohol, stay hydrated, and get routine screenings to lower my risk of heart attack or stroke. These simple, evidence-based lifestyle steps—nutrition, movement, and rest—are powerful and doable no matter where you live.

These practical steps help me trust my intuition and daily body cues so I stay healthy and balanced.
