“We have more control over our wellness than we think we do.”
As she entered midlife, Jill Angelo realized that there were few resources for women in midlife to learn about the changes happening in their bodies – and to connect with professionals who could help them confidently step into this powerful life phase.
So she set out to create one.
Jill shares how her personal journey and health challenges changed her perspective on wellness, what she’s learned about balance and success as an entrepreneur, and how easing up on your health goals can actually get you there faster.
Jill Angelo is co-founder and CEO of genneve, a digital health solution that helps women in midlife manage the third phase of their reproductive health. genneve’s mission is to help the 50M menopausal women in the U.S. feel fabulous in their bodies.
Prior to starting genneve, Jill spent 15 years as a Microsoft executive – growing consumer brands, managing consumer distribution channels, and leading global media for brands such as Surface and Xbox. She was named one of Inc. Magazine’s 2016 Most Impressive Women Entrepreneurs and is quickly becoming one of my favorite kindred spirits in Seattle.
