Empowerment is a big concept, and one that not all embrace as easiliy as others. that said, we believe in the power of women together to support and encourage each other to become our own best health and wellness advocates. Women are not only consumers, but caregivers, working women and (like Michelle) community leaders. It seems as though regardless of education, that we're dumbfounded when we go to the doctor's office, wanting everything to be just fine. We forget the questions, we take "no" for an answer, and we get discouraged by the limitations of modern medicine. And those limitations are real.
