Realizing Your Love Languages – Nicky Hassaballa

Although I may tell myself that I don’t feed into it or I don’t care, Valentine’s Day is the first thing that pops into my mind every February.  It’s not that I need a heart shaped box of chocolates or an obnoxious bouquet of flowers, but it’s more so a reminder that my relationship status in Single.  Although Valentine’s Day is only for a day, for the entire month, I seem to wallow in the fact that I don’t have a romantic partner. Many single women will say that they want a nice guy that treats them well and shows them admiration and respect.  However, when that type of man crosses our path, we tend to brush them off because they either don’t excite us enough or make us laugh or are not spontaneous and romantic.  And so, we constantly feel like we are always back at...

Perimenopause-Menopause, get prepared to figure it out for yourself – Theresa Russell

What is it and why are healthcare providers not prepared to help women when they seek out assistance? Why is half of the population still suffering, most of them in silence? We can ask endless questions to most health care providers but most of them will not answer. Women’s health has been deemed as unimportant. Medical schools do not educate on hormones. Therefore, gynecologists are not prepared to offer menopausal women guidance on this subject. Be prepared when you do want to talk about your strange symptoms that you will be brushed off and a prescription for an anti-anxiety medication will be given to you. Before you get that filled make sure that you look at the side effects. You do not want to trade one symptom for another one. Ladies, you are your own health advocate. You need...
