Wordless Wednesday: The WomenOnTheFence® Makeover Is Here!

We did it! It has been a looong time in the making. We have been working fervently on our blog redesign in order to give you the best and most optimal reading experience possible– a more user-friendly, easier to navigate, and specifically, a more mobile friendly destination. It has been no easy feat.

On The Fence About Cosmetic Surgery?

Working as a plastic surgeon in New York City, I’ve seen thousands of patients for a lot of the same complaints. Women often want thinner thighs, slimmer tummies, or fuller, perkier breasts. Exercise, a good diet, lots of water, cosmetics, and other beauty products will take you far in enhancing your appearance, but sometimes your own genetics may demand otherwise.

For those who find—no matter how much they exercise or how well they eat—that certain body parts don’t respond as well as they’d like, or for those who have completed their families and want to get that pre-baby body back despite numerous efforts, there is still hope. Advances in medical science give patients many options to spruce up their appearances with the help of a talented plastic surgeon.

5 Strategies To De-Stress Your Kids

I wanted to share this week’s Global TV segment with you. In my coaching practice, I am seeing extraordinarily high levels of stress and tension in families lately as a common thread. Many of my female clients are stressed, burned out, and it’s being filtered down to their kids.

One study says 50% of kids today feel stressed out. Children’s tensions are on the rise due school pressures, peer pressure, family tensions and just plain every day living.

This week, I shared 5 strategies to de-stress your kids.

@Aeroplan’s 30th Anniversary SPREE With A Giveaway!

You might recall we are doing a full week of Black Friday shopping on WomenOnTheFence.com. You also may recall we have done exciting giveaways in the past with Aeroplan as well. You, my lovely readers, know that I have been a loyal member of the Aeroplan program, accumulating Aeroplan Miles as I have spent dollars (which I have redeemed for airfare, hotel, car rental, merchandise, and more), for almost 20 years! Well, Aeroplan turned 30 this year and we honored that anniversary by giving away 30,000 MILES to a lucky random WomenOnTheFence reader. It was cool!

Black Friday Week Continues With @Microsoft!

Black Friday Deals Week continues at WomenOnTheFence.com!

My beloved readers know that I became an ambassador for Microsoft Office a few years ago. It was thrilling, because I haven’t lived A DAY without Microsoft Office for the past 15 years. I have travelled to Microsoft headquarters, given away Microsoft products, held contests and more over the past few years. It has been a partnership I value tremendously.

Perhaps you have been using Microsoft Office like me for many years, or perhaps you’re just getting started. Yup, as a businesswoman and mom, these are some powerful and useful programs I simply cannot live without. Yes, I run Office on my Mac now, iPhone and iPad now, so Mac or PC, you’re covered!

Accepting Change: Letting Yourself Fall Into The Flow of Your Life

While my current situation is not life threatening, it has been life altering. The following are my musings of dealing with a life-changing event.

Imagine being in the top physical shape of your life. Years of training, rebooting your body. You changed your food habits, you had adopted exercise habits. You found yourself enjoying working out and making the gym a daily part of your life. Through your own journey you were able to drop 120+ pounds and rebooted your body chemistry so that you were no longer a health risk to yourself or to your loved ones.
