As I sit here 2 days before turning 40, I am reflecting on my past memories and experiences and yet am excited about future opportunities of the next decade of my life. I am not sure I could of said that about 2-3 years ago. I was totally afraid of this milestone and felt un-easy that my life was now about to be half over. My 20’s brought me a sense of identity with college, relationship mistakes and living by myself. My 30’s brought me the two greatest ‘loves’of my life – my husband and beautiful daughter. And now 40? Hmmm…it should be an open canvas and thanks to getting my health back in order – it will be! Venture with me into this new decade and learn from my past experiences looking at life from the perspective of a truly busy girl…could that be you too? I don’t intend to slow down, but fine tune the engine to high performance. In the fine words of the wise young savvy sage herself, Natasha Bedingfield from her song “Unwritten”,:
“I am unwritten, can't read my mind, I'm undefined, I'm just beginning, the pen's in my hand, ending unplanned….”My story starts here…..

I started this blog to share my knowledge gained over the past 3 years to help other women with their own health related issues.

My hope is that my experience will inspire women to take control of their health and to seek out answers to how they feel, and not to except unremarkable care from the medical community.
Your body is too important, and only you know how you truly feel.
Take the first step by empowering yourself with knowledge for better health choices!
