What Is Healthy Aging, a Podcast with Wangari Kamau

Wangari says about herself, my passion for working on wellness awareness came from two life-altering events, moments of profound upheaval that nudged me toward the path of healing and self-discovery. The first event arose when I found the courage to raise my voice against unequal pay. Standing up against the establishment was daunting, made worse by the intense backlash stemming from dehumanizing treatment. The second event arrived when my almost 30 year marriage ended. Suddenly, I was standing at the precipice of my 50s, left with the task of redefining my identity beyond what had always anchored me. As I worked through these major changes, I sought healing through formal therapy, enriching my soul with meditation, purposeful travel, and healthy living.  I bring to you not only my life experiences but also my professional expertise in global training and development which includes designing and leading retreats and workshops for diverse participants and my many years of effective coaching.
