Yesterday was International Women’s Day. It’s an annual invitation to reflect on the role that women play in our lives, work, and our planet. By 2025 more than 1 billion women in the world will be experiencing menopause. In Canada, the number will be more than 5 million.

In this week’s segment, I bring some insights about the impact of menopause on our lives and a woman’s career. If you are menopausal – do not suffer in silence. You get no medals for it.

INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY

As we celebrate International Women’s Day, it’s important to highlight the achievements of women across various industries. One such example is Jennifer Lopez, who recently became the global ambassador for HydraFacial.

As the face of HydraFacial, JLo is not only promoting the brand but also encouraging women to prioritize self-care and take care of their skin.

With the ongoing pandemic, self-care has become more important than ever before. HydraFacial is an excellent way for women to pamper themselves while also improving their skin’s health. JLo’s involvement with HydraFacial serves as a reminder that self-care is not just a luxury but a necessity.

Let’s take a moment to appreciate the women who are making a difference in their respective fields and encouraging others to prioritize their health and wellbeing.

HydraFacial is a non-invasive in-clinic treatment that combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, and hydration to leave the skin looking radiant and refreshed.
