We are thrilled to announce the launch of HealthyWomen’s new Community, where the wit and wisdom of everyday women and the knowledge of experts meet. This new Community provides a safe haven for women to share their health questions and advice with others who can relate.

As a member of HealthyWomen’s Consumer Liaison Council, we hope that in addition to joining this great new resource, you’ll also promote it to your constituents. To make that easy, we’ve enclosed:

·     Copy for your newsletter or a direct email message
·     Social media promotions for Facebook and Twitter
·     A flyer that can be emailed to constituents, handed out at events or posted in your offices
·     Banner advertisements for your website (please let us know if you need a different size)


You are welcome to use these messages directly or to customize this copy to fit with the tone of your own communications.

We started promoting this new Community among our own constituents three weeks ago and are happy to report we already have more than 450 active members. We hope you’ll give it a try. Sign up is easy. Just give us a username and password.

Have you heard of S Factor?  It’s a feminine fitness program infused with yoga, ballet, Pilates, and pole dancing, and I’m bringing it right to the doorstep of South Carolina area women this May!

I would like to personally invite you, all of your female staff, and all chapter members you’d like to include in this opportunity to join me at The Kiawah Island Resort, May 3 – 6 for the S Factor Soulfully Sexy Women’s Retreat!

S Factor was part of your Southern California chapter’s Women’s Health Forum last fall and we had a ball!  This retreat is definitely right in line with your society’s free-spirited, frump-fighting fabulousness!  Everything you may have heard about S Factor on Oprah (we’ve been featured 7 times!) is true. Luscious body-lengthening and core-strengthening workouts, the soulful emotionality of feminine movement, and the life-changing unleashing of your most authentic womanly and confidently curvy self.  Plus front row seats to special retreat dinners, activities and events at the resort with me as your personal host.

I hope the women of the Blue Thong Society will be my special guests on this adventure with a $500 Off per person VIP Group Rate!

This will be an exquisite bonding and empowering group experience for all of you.  You’ll be catered to in a safe, fun, women-only environment with real women.  Every day stay-at-moms, busy businesswomen, and every woman in between.  Workout experience is not necessary, I have worked with women of all backgrounds from ages 18 – 99 and they all love S!

This is my only trip planned to your area for now.  I hope you’ll come play with me!!
