Recently I trained as a Bredesen ReCODE Coach, adding to my professional knowledge base and credentials as I look to help anyone concerned about their brain health.

Alzheimer's is a women's health issue. 🧠 Of ev Alzheimer's is a women's health issue.

🧠 Of every three people in the United States living with Alzheimer’s, two are women.

🧠 Even factoring in women’s longer lifespans, they’re twice as likely as men to develop the disease.

🧠 Lifestyle changes such as improved sleep and nutrition, increased exercise and mental stimulation, and decreased stress and toxins, can help reduce a woman's risk of dementia.

If all of that seems overwhelming, focus on just one piece of the puzzle. What's one tiny step you can take to improve your cognition?

• None of us is perfect, and we don't have to be, even when we are working toward something important to us. 💙
• We all need safe spaces in our lives - people and environments - in order to grow and thrive. 🩵

#graceandspaceforahealthieryou became my tagline when I started my health and well-being coach practice in 2017. You'll see it on my website and every time I post on IG.

It's a principle I try to live by professionally, as I aim to offer grace and space to my coaching clients and mentees, as well as those who attend my classes and retreats. And also personally, in the day to day of my life - including to myself.

What would it mean to give yourself some grace and space today?
