    Wisdom from Alyssa Sullivan in the Women’s Mind Body Wellness Summit

    Alyssa SullivanWhen I launched the Women’s Mind Body Wellness Summit, my goal was to bring experts in to share information on a variety of topics relevant to women today. We accomplished just that, and one of the remarkable women who contributed is Alyssa Sullivan.

    Alyssa is the director at Rainbow Child Care Center. She holds a B.S. in Early Childhood Education with a Reading Endorsement from Xavier University

    Alyssa was the perfect person to teach us about choosing the right childcare facility for our children. Above all, she urged us to trust our instincts. As women, our gut feelings often steer us right. Alyssa also shared her tips for preparing to send your child to a new school or daycare, how to make drop-off easier, and how to get through tough days.

    Then, she presented ideas for connecting with our children during the time when they are at home or in the car with us.

    I learned so much from Alyssa, and I know you will, too.

    Wisdom from Dr. Jennifer Shell in the Women’s Mind Body Wellness Summit

    Dr. Jennifer ShellWhen I launched the Women’s Mind Body Wellness Summit, my goal was to bring experts in to share information on a variety of topics relevant to women today. We accomplished just that, and one of the phenomenal women who contributed is Dr. Jennifer Shell, D.C.

    Dr. Shell is a chiropractor with an emphasis on nutrition. She focuses on helping people heal naturally, by changing their diets and incorporating specific high-quality supplements.

    With that background, Dr. Shell had plenty of wisdom to share about nutrition for wellness. One of her key tips is to avoid sugar, and she helped us identify some of the culprits in our home that may be hiding sugar without us realizing it. Did you know a store-bought granola bar typically has about 50 grams of sugar? Dr. Shell urged us to read the labels of the food we already have in our homes, then how to make some simple changes to our snacks.

    She also explained simple vs. complex carbohydrates, offered healthy breakfast options, and discussed how nutritional response testing works and how it can help you identify what is helping or harming your body.

    One thing I was surprised to learn was that obesity, depression, anxiousness, and behavior problems can be markedly changed by diet.

    Wisdom from Kate Fodell in the Women’s Mind Body Wellness Summit

    Kate FodellWhen I launched the Women’s Mind Body Wellness Summit, my goal was to bring experts in to share information on a variety of topics relevant to women today. We accomplished just that, and one of the amazing women who contributed is Kate Fodell.

    Kate is a personal trainer with Pointe Fitness. She is a certified strength and conditioning specialist, who is passionate about working with women and young athletes.

    During the WMBW Summit, Kate taught us how to track our nutrition, which app is her favorite for doing so, and which numbers we should pay attention to. I bet I wasn’t the only person who was surprised when she said, “If you don’t eat enough, you won’t lose weight, because your body is going to store what you eat.”

    She also talked about why strength training is important for women and taught us how to get started. Kate said it doesn’t matter whether we commit ourselves to working out at a gym or at home, as long as we commit ourselves.
