📣 Meet the Woman Behind This Community
Most of you have heard me mention Charlene. You've seen her name, heard me reference her work. She's been in the background — by choice — while we laid this foundation together. That changes this week. She's stepping in directly, and I want you to know a little about who she is before she does. 🤍 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞'𝐬 𝐚 𝐟𝐞𝐰 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐋𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐰𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐰𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡: 🔹 Grew up in constant motion: 4 grade schools, 4 high schools, 4 colleges, a different state and city for each 🔹 Sober since 1981: 44+ years of real, lived tools for self-examination 🔹 Experienced the trauma of abuse in early romantic relationships and healing that comes with a good marriage. 🔹 Married in 1990: celebrating 36 years together this year 💑 🔹 Faced cervical cancer: no insurance, had the surgery, came out cancer-free 🔹 In 1996, a contractor laying new sewer lines in the neighborhood put them in backwards — flooding her home with sewage. Every affected home had to be completely remodeled. She spent 7 months homeless, still in school full-time, working part-time, while her husband fought the contractor and an attorney to make it right. 🔹 Crohn's diagnosis in 2000: medication-free by 2011 🔹 Business/Marketing degree + 2 Engineering degrees + 30 years in research, marketing & copywriting 🔹 Started her business in 2008: then learned how to talk to strangers and speak from the stage by going to Toastmasters 🔹 Certified Mindfulness Practitioner 𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐬𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮'𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚𝐬 𝐚 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧: 📚 Always reading at least 3 books at once ... fiction and non-fiction both ✍️ Wrote her first poem at 9, her first book at 11, published in magazines as a teen ... and still writing today 🎱 Plays pool competitively in local, regional, and national tournaments 🔬 Loves science ... physics and neuroscience equally fascinate her 💬 Straight-forward ... she will say it directly, no fluff She's not here to sell you a morning routine or a 5-step framework. She's here because she's genuinely figured some things out ... about clarity, self-examination, and what to do when life gets loud.

💥 Let's talk about what you're REALLY getting as a Premium Member
Hiring a Holistic Health & Nutrition Coach on your own? That'll run you about $300 per session. Most coaches require a minimum package — so you're looking at up to $1,500/month just to get personalized guidance on what you're eating and how it's affecting your body. Need a Money Management Expert? Private financial coaching $400 per session. And that's before you even get a real plan in place. Many women spend $2,000+ just to get started. What about a Physical Therapist who actually understands the female body over 40? A single PT session costs around $350 out of pocket. Weekly sessions? You're easily spending around $1,400/month — and that's for ONE therapist, not two. Let's add that up. 🔴 Holistic Health & Nutrition Coach → up to $1,500/month 🔴 Money Management Expert → up to $2,000/month 🔴 2 Physical Therapists (women's fitness 40+) → up to $2,800/month That's hitting $6,300/month — or $75,600 a year — in expert guidance for Nutrition, Money Management, and Fitness. Inside the Selfcare Wellness Society? You get ALL of that for $12 a month or $130/year and you get a great discount on our products on Gumroad. 🙌 No hourly rates. No packages. No gatekeeping.

🌙 The Art of Doing Nothing
Hey friend 💛 I’ve been thinking about this lately… doing nothing is actually harder than it sounds. Not scrolling. Not half-resting while thinking about everything you “should” be doing. I mean just… sitting. Breathing. Being still for a minute. I don’t think most of us were ever taught how to do that. We’re so used to staying busy that slowing down can feel a little uncomfortable. But I’ve noticed when I actually let myself pause—even for a few minutes—I feel different. Calmer. Less scattered. So today I’m trying to do a little less. Not perfectly, just on purpose. 💬 What about you… how are you letting yourself slow down today? 🌿
✨ Step into the Friday circle, gorgeous 💖
Come on in… kick off your shoes, grab your coffee (or wine 😉), and take a breath. This is your space to just be. No pressure, no polishing, no “having it all together.” Think of this as our cozy little living room at the end of a full week—where we can exhale, share what’s real, and feel a little less alone in it all. Maybe you’ve got something weighing on you and you just need to say it out loud. Maybe there’s a win—big or small—you want someone to celebrate with you. Or maybe you just need a laugh, a moment of lightness, or a “same, girl… same.” It all belongs here. 💛 💬 So tell me…What’s something you want to get off your chest, celebrate, or laugh about today?
