Business Development at EmpowHer

 

My Background

I work at EmpowHer, a women's health web site dedicated to providing the best in health information and resources to women around the world.  I joined EmpowHer after several years of working as a freelance print reporter for The Arizona Republic, one of the largest metropolitan daily newspapers in the US.  Previous to my work with The Arizona Republic, I hosted a political talk show for cable television for a couple of years and worked for several corporations in high-profile strategic positions.

My Story

Nearly three years ago, I wrote a cover story for The Arizona Republic newspaper about Michelle King Robson and her desire to improve women's access to health care.  It was an amazing experience to meet her, and I was so impressed with her dedication and plans to create a place online for women to go to find the best health information and resources.  Her web site, www.EmpowHer.com, resulted from her own experience of suffering a debilitating health situation following a complete hysterectomy.  (Michelle is also a member of Connected Women and can be found here:  http://www.connected-women.com/en/directory/view/michelle) Her health story especially resonated with me, as I had suffered from postpartum depression for several months before I finally received the diagnosis and treatment I needed to recover. I knew what it was like to feel alone in an illness and completely without hope. Michelle's vision and mission to give every woman a voice was so compelling that before I knew it, I was working with her to help bring her vision to life.  Our EmpowHer Community is quite unique in that women can come together to share their health experiences, ask health questions and connect with like-minded women and top medical experts in the US.

 

I want to thank Kristin for the work she has be doing for women. Health is something , we think is a natural thing. Sometimes only when we get sick we find out how lucky we was. when we were healthy. Unfurtunally women often doesnt get the help they need. The doctors and the society thinks we are just faking, hysteric or of course have the MENOPAUSE or the PERIOD Like we all suffer for that. Its wery important to help women to dare talk about pain or illness. to get the courage to do something before its maybe too late..
Kristin I have been readen the website empowher.com and ofcourse I have signet in. Im looking forward to do lot more..))
Thank you for your kind letter and everything...
