"I’ve been very fortunate to work one-on-one with Dr. Mindy, and what she has spent countless hours teaching me is exactly what you are about to learn in the pages that follow. They’re lessons that I believe should be taught to women from the time that we hit puberty but aren’t.
It’s time to re-mother ourselves and empower our hearts and minds with the knowledge that allows us to no longer be at the mercy of anything or anyone outside of ourselves when it comes to our health."
