Welcome to 2023 Natural Awakenings Gulf Coast Women In Wellness, part of our month-long salute to women’s health! We are highlighting some of the incredible holistic health professionals and businesswomen in the Gulf Coast area and celebrating women everywhere who hold wellness as a priority and passion in their lives.

NAGC is thrilled to showcase these stories and missions in this special multi-platform feature, which begins with our May print issue and continues to our website at NAGulfCoast.com and Facebook.com/NaturalAwakeningsMag. We are proud to present the stories of 12 diverse women from various fields who have made a difference in so many lives by their hard work, their extensive research and their belief in natural healing through a mind-body-spirit approach in everything they do. These are the women that support and enable Natural Awakenings to connect, educate and empower readers all along the Gulf Coast to live healthy on a healthy planet.

We hope you will read, share and save this wonderful section of our magazine, follow these Women In Wellness practitioners and purveyors of natural health and wellness and consider their products and services when you, your friends and family are seeking health and wellness professionals. Enjoy learning all about them, as we did!
