Have you ever wanted to love the food you eat and have it love you back? I'm here with my friend Vivian Polak who is an MD and specializes in empowering women to use non-medication strategies to recover from high blood pressure (or hypertension), rather than just "managing" it with medication.

Play and Wellness with Gina Fontaine

Movement is essential and exercise is optional. – Gina Fontaine

Gina Fontaine, CPT, CES

Gina appreciates playfulness, embodies strength, inspires self-love and connects her clients to the power of their higher self. As a body consciousness coach, she teaches women how to honor their bodies as a sacred temple of wisdom.

She uses a variety of modalities including yoga, meditation, mindset training, Pilates, water fitness, strength training and electromagnetic technology to help her clients generate body awareness. Her refined eye for technique and being able to adapt to her client’s needs comes from her three-decade career as a fitness professional. She now takes her clients on a spiritual journey using the body as the vehicle. Once a positive relationship is established with the body, Gina’s clients thrive and more easily adopt a healthier lifestyle. Gina believes being healthy can be fun and easy.

She created and wrote the Power of Pregnancy Pre and Postnatal Fitness Certification in 2015 and she founded the Supermom Club in 2021 to help women emerge more confident and grounded during times of transition and stress in motherhood. Her book You Are a Supermom: 5 Ways to Reclaim Your Superpower and Thrive dispels the 5 myths that often keep moms from thriving.

Loving Our Style with Kay Korsh

Kay Korsh is a mom of two who spent her whole adult life working with high-end brands and dressing actors like Lily James and Elizabeth Debicki. Even before having her kids, the work she had been doing felt superficial and unnecessary (for example, getting someone to drive for a hundred miles to get another £400 pair of boots for a five min shot for a campaign, just because the client felt the other boots, which were approved before, weren’t "just right"). After having kids, she knew she had to pivot. It all started on a drop-off walk to school, when a fellow mom asked her what she did. She responded, "I’m a fashion stylist." And the mom's response was: “Don’t we all need one.” She thought that was a sign and for the last two years, she has been helping moms all over the world gain more confidence and find their unique look, which is aligned with their personality.
