Taking Care of You: The Empowered Woman’s Guide to Better Health

Why We

the Book

And why you should . . .

Be like Laddu!

Women make nearly 80% of all healthcare decisions—for ourselves and for our families. But to make the right decisions, we need the right information.

Too often, trusted, relevant health info is hard to find. That’s why we created the Taking Care of You Book: a clear, easy-to-use guide written for women, by women.

Whether you’re navigating your own health journey or caring for someone you love, every stage of life brings new questions. The concerns we face at 22 aren’t the same as those at 52—and they’ll change again at 72. Each chapter of life brings new challenges, new changes, and new needs. This book meets women where they are—at every age, and every stage.

Thanks to medical artist Margot Sarkozy, the book feels more like a health recipe guide—visual, engaging, and easy to use.

You don’t have to read it cover to cover—just flip to the chapter you need, when you need it. Simple. Supportive. Ready when you are.
