We're gearing up to celebrate breast cancer awareness in October and partnering with the Phoenix affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure. Look for our Valley physicians guide in our upcoming Sept/Oct issue.
It's important to make your health a top priority, and we hope you take it as seriously as we do. In so doing, we’ve researched, interviewed and explored a number of health topics affecting women, and within the pages of the magazine, we’ve brought you what we’ve learned...also available online.
These topics include the latest in breast health screenings, why weight-loss surgery has become so prevalent, which hormone therapy is changing lives and how sporting vein-free legs is an office-visit away.
Also deserving of attention--our fashion spread featuring fresh, new faces and local talent as we kick off our first ever Phoenix Woman model search in partnership with Get Image Ready. Our winners look amazing and can be found on pages 16-23. This contest has been extremely rewarding as we feature aspiring models and photographers—making their dreams of magazine success come true.
And isn’t that what life is all about? Learning everything we can, helping others along the way and taking time to enjoy ourselves, our surroundings and our families—truly reveling in all of life’s pleasurable moments.
As a way to soak in every minute, I’ve paused—several times—as you’ll see in these snapshots. And, boy am I delighted I did—these pictures will forever remind me of the fun times, the friendships gained and my incredible journey, as I get to meet the coolest people (Olivia Newton-John was one of them) and do some pretty cool things—ride sky high on a ski lift, just for fun.
And for a brief moment, in my son’s eyes, I was “the coolest” for having met “Malcolm in the Middle” star, Frankie Muniz. So, I propose—especially during our “pink” month of October—we all take pause—in honor of our health, appreciating breast cancer heroes, as a way of savoring life and in solace of all the special experiences this world brings.
