As the ripple effects of the coronavirus pandemic continue to unfold and expand, one thing has become clear: women are under siege.
At LIFT, we are advocates and allies for women’s whole health; and most preeminently, mental health, which includes emotional and psychological health, as well as social well-being. Why?
Health anxiety is a condition wherein we cannot stop thinking about potential symptoms and begin to catastrophize them. We often create rituals or habits of inspection to look for anything seemingly out of place and then gather as much information on them as possible.
Did you know that October is National Women’s Small Business Month?
This is a time to recognize the myriad achievements of our country’s female entrepreneurs, and the positive impact they are making on jobs and the economy. If you’re an owner of one of the 11.6 million women owned businesses in the U.S., this month is also about YOU!
This week, 4 October – 10 October, marks Mental Illness Awareness Week 2020. The theme for this year’s #MIAW is “What People With Mental Illness Want You to Know.” MIAW coincides with National Depression Screening Day, which takes place on October 8.

We at LIFT have been asking ourselves this week what our role looks like in supporting the #BlackLivesMatter movement. In listening to our Black colleagues and friends, this much has been made clear: dismantling fatphobia, and discrimination against all marginalized bodies, is an integral part of our contribution.
LIFT’s specialized team is devoted to helping individuals learn how to finally deal with emotional pain and distress. We work with clients to build better relationships with food, body, and exercise. We believe that peace with food and body are our birthright, and we’re ready to begin helping you uncover possibilities you haven’t previously considered.
