Grown-Ass Woman's Guide

The Key to Aging Strong

Jackie MacDougall and Rachel Cosgrove

No one has tried more diet trends than Generation X;  Atkins, South Beach, non-fat, cabbage soup, grapefruit diet, liquid diet, Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, Slim Fast… Stop the Insanity! 

We’ve been on and off enough diet rollercoasters, I refuse to contribute to it. Today you’ll meet a guest who teaches us how to appreciate our bodies, as they are, right now in this moment. And, if you’d like to become even stronger, and have greater balance that will carry you over the next three decades or so, she’ll help you with that too.

Plus, we’ll invite you to an online event happening this week that will help you turn any challenge, into an opportunity.
