Celebrating Women’s Health: Take Charge During National Women’s Health Week

05/08/2025

It’s National Women’s Health Week! This annual observance is a powerful reminder of the importance of women prioritizing their health and well-being — physically, mentally, and emotionally.  It’s a time to reflect on the significance of regular health check-ups, cultivating a balanced diet, setting aside time for physical activity, and ensuring mental health care.

Women often wear many hats: entrepreneur, caregiver, household manager, friend, partner, mentor, and more. With so much on their plates, it’s essential that women feel empowered to advocate for their own health. Prioritizing personal wellness isn’t just self-care; it’s the foundation for showing up fully for our families, our careers, and our communities.

Did you know that women spend 25% more time in poor health compared to men? Closing this health gap could add over seven additional days of healthy life for every woman and contribute more than $1 trillion to the global economy annual by 2040, according to McKinsey Health Institute.

What Moves Her, through their association with Anywhere Real Estate, has partnered with Cigna Healthcare to offer comprehensive health benefits tailored specifically to the unique needs of women. This collaboration ensures that women have access to a wide range of health services, including preventative care, mental health support, and wellness programs. Cigna’s women-focused content provides invaluable information and resources, empowering women to make informed decisions about their health.

As part of this initiative, Cigna proudly presents their podcast, The Visibility Gap, hosted by the renowned OB-GYN, Dr. Jen Ashton. This podcast delves into critical topics in women’s health, from maternal health to heart disease and cancer, shedding light on often overlooked health challenges.

Ladies, it’s time to take charge of your health. It’s time to prioritize YOU. Embrace this week as an opportunity to start new health habits, schedule those overdue check-ups, and invest in your well-being. Remember, your health is your most valuable asset. Let’s celebrate National Women’s Health Week by making our health a top priority, today and every day.
