Worst Ex Stories – An Entertainment and Healing Workshop
Do you have an ex story? Most of us do. And chances are, you’ve told it over and over again. But are you satisfied? Probably not. Somehow, that story lives on in you and, though you may not think of it often, it can click into “play” at the oddest moments. It won’t go away, because something[…]
The Tragedy of Body Shame in Women Over 50
by Nicole Christina, LCSW Imagine this scene: You are at the coffee shop with a few of your female friends who are talking about their current diets, whether or not they were “good” over the weekend, and their successes or failures according to their fitness apps.

Author of MONEY: Master The Game, he said in an interview that the wealthiest, most successful people tend to hang out with wealthy, successful people. Before you say, “Duh,” think about what you’re really saying when you say[…]
Feedback Is a Gift
A couple of weeks ago, I sent an email to all of last year’s Women At Woodstock attendees. In the email, I filled them in on what I’d learned from the survey I’d asked them to complete at the end of October; the workshops they liked most; things that maybe fell a bit short of expectations;[…]
Making a YOU Turn
Sheree Clark calls her coaching practice for women Fork in the Road, which she founded after finding herself at that proverbial Y intersection in 2009. After trying on many different titles, she settled on Midlife Courage Coach, because she helps women in midlife to connect into the courage it takes to make the changes in[…]

Hi There! You Look Nice Today!
“Hi Ann, you look nice today!” This is the greeting that I receive whenever I log into my Imperfect Produce account. It’s accompanied by a silly looking misshapen sweet potato with googly eyes.
