Today, I’m visiting with Jeanne Phares. She is a former certified public accountant (CPA) whose life took an unexpected turn after a devastating leukemia diagnosis.
Rather than allowing that experience to define her, Jeanne transformed it into a mission to help women become stronger, healthier and more confident as they navigate midlife and beyond.
Here are several key takeaways from this episode:
First, Jeanne shares how the generosity of family members, physicians and an employer helped her survive one of the toughest challenges of her life.
Second, she explains why strength training, proper nutrition and putting yourself first are essential for aging well, especially for women over 50.
Finally, she talks about leaving a successful accounting career behind to become an author, coach and advocate who is helping women to redefine what growing older can look like.
If you’ve ever wondered how a life-changing challenge can become the foundation for a new purpose, I think you’ll find Jeanne’s story both practical and encouraging.
Her story reminds us that purpose often grows out of experiences we never would have chosen. Jeanne’ battle with leukemia deepened her appreciation for generosity, resilience and the importance of caring for ourselves before we can effectively care for others.
Today, Jeanne helps women over 50 to embrace strength training, healthy habits and a positive mindset so they can age on their own terms.
Through her books, coaching programs and courses, Jeanne encourages women to stop thinking only about losing weight and instead focus on building the strength and confidence needed to enjoy life for years to come.
