The Women’s Wellness Gap

Today is World Women’s Wellness day. Half of the world’s population is female and we disproportionately face health disparities, high maternal mortality and difficulty accessing healthcare. It’s indisputable that female biology is essential to the survival of the species and that our contributions to science, history, art, politics and literature, as well as in bearing and rearing future generations are immeasurable. We are your mothers, sisters, wives, aunts, cousins and friends. We are your teachers, doctors, nurses, business owners and congress women. We are part of our communities, families and countries. We are loved and respected and counted on.
And yet our unique physiology and health vulnerabilities have been historically understudied, underrepresented and underfunded. This has resulted in a gap in our understanding of conditions that affect women exclusively and in how diseases affect women differently in general. Our lack of understanding of the particular ways disease manifests in women has created misdiagnosis, under diagnosis and lack of effective interventions and treatment for women. This has undermined the over all efficacy of women’s healthcare. Equitable care is not something we should have to argue for, the wellness of the world’s women is crucial to the wellness of the world.
As a women’s health and wellness professional and a woman, I will continue to work to help close the wellness gap and support women’s wellness today and every day.

My commitment to help women overcome pain and dysfunction and reclaim their lives is constantly deepened and satisfied by results like this. 🙏

Let’s get real! I love this quote from The Velveteen Rabbit by Margery Williams. It speaks to the fact that as time passes our sense of self grows through our relationships with others, the world around us and our unique perspectives. We grow into ourselves. Through both hardships and joys- and through our connections as well as our loneliness and questioning, we become more ourselves. In this children’s book, the velveteen rabbit did not become “real“ until his fur is rubbed off in spots and he has lost his button eyes. He was “worn in” and this gave him a deeper sense of himself. He was no longer shiney and new but he was imbued with value.
I believe women in midlife can have a similar experience. As we move forward in time, who we are can become clearer, deeper and more authentic. We can find our voices, embrace our imperfections, get clear about who we are and share our gifts with the world.

It is well written with every day language that makes it easy to understand and provides hope and resources to anyone suffering from pelvic pain. Check it out!
