The Well Woman Academy is a place for high achieving, professional women to gather without judgment, where women are supported to break through barriers and create the life they desire. It is a monthly group program with weekly content, coaching and support. It's based on intersectional feminism, mindfulness and the Well Woman Life Framework. This is such a good time to invest in yourself and get the support to begin your new chapter and the next version of you, your relationships and your work. What can you create? Where are you holding back? Even if you're not planning to make any major changes, this can help you deepen your sense of purpose and well-being. And if you are on the verge of a major life change, or in it, this will give you the clarity, motivation and support to get there.

For 25 years I’ve been working in social justice and systems change because when women and girls thrive, families thrive and whole communities thrive. What I realized through my work was that there are systems in play that work to keep women leaders functioning at half their capacity because of overwork, overwhelm and burnout. 

The very nature of the dominant systems of power that have worked so well for many high achieving women are the exact reason we are crashing and burning at such high rates. So we end up with highly capable women leaders who are unable to realize their potential whether it’s in their health, their relationships, career, prosperity or social impact. 

I'm Giovanna Rossi, host of the Well Woman Show on NPR and what I do is work with high achieving women leaders who feel stuck in their careers, overwhelmed by trying to do it all, facing a health crisis or unhappy in their relationships so that they can finally enjoy life again, be the leader they know they can be, and make the impact there are here to make in their families and communities. I have a masters in public policy from the London School of Economics and am an accredited coach with the International Coaching Federation. 

It’s my mission to use a feminist lens and the Well Woman Life framework to challenge the status quo and dismantle systems that work to maintain unequal power so that all women can thrive as leaders in their families and communities. 

I hope to see you in the Academy!
