Thank you for being here! I’m so proud to be part of a community that truly cares about women’s health and wellbeing.
Heart disease is the No. 1 threat to women's lives ~ yet women have been overlooked in research, testing, treatment, and funding. The American Heart Association’s ‘Go Red for Women’ campaign is happening now to helping change that. And… I’m honored to be part of it as one of the select Women of Impact in our Madison, WI area!
At Qēt Botanicals, it's not just about our skin. We believe our bodies speak to us ~ and it’s up to us to listen.
When I was a child, I fainted often and was told it was “just puberty.” At 17, I found my healthy mom on the floor after having a life-changing stroke. Years later while in my 30s and still having symptoms, I finally found out I had mitral valve prolapse and cardiogenic syncope. Heart disease was in our family, and it was affecting all of us.
I’ve always focused on health, but it wasn’t until my diagnosis that I also focused on heart health.
Through physical and mental fitness, stress care, nourishing food, and mindful self-care, I’ve learned how powerful listening to our bodies can be.
I'm turning 59 in April ~ with continued self-care and regular check-ins, I’ve been able to avoid heart medication all of these years. I'm sharing my story to help us get smart about heart health, and to remind us to look out for ourselves and each other.
Together we can support research, advocate for better care, and help create health solutions designed for women, through every age and stage.
This healthy heart season is about more than ‘wearing red.’ It’s about connection, care, and standing together ~ for both women and men.
If you wish, I’d love for you to stand with me and support this cause. We're building awareness for women's heart health, promoting healthy lifestyles, and raising funds for this cause from February 6th through April 9th.
