We Exist Because Women Over 40 Deserve Real Answers — Not More Conflicting Advice
HerGlowing is a women's health media brand built from frustration, fueled by research, and powered by a community of women who refused to keep guessing. We cover GLP-1, hormones, metabolism, weight loss, and wellness — with honesty, warmth, and zero fluff.
The Women's Health Information Gap Is Real — and We're Closing It
Most women over 35 spend years being told their symptoms are 'normal' — the exhaustion, the unexplained weight gain, the hormonal chaos, the feeling that their body is working against them. They're handed generic advice that stopped working years ago and sent home without real answers.
HerGlowing started with one woman's frustration and became something much bigger: a trusted destination where women find evidence-based information about GLP-1 medications, metabolic health, hormones, and wellness — written in plain language by people who actually care.
We believe every woman deserves to walk into a doctor's appointment informed, empowered, and ready to advocate for herself. That's what we're here for.
Meet the Voices You Can Trust
Three real women. Three different angles on health. One shared mission — giving you information that actually helps.
If you'd told me at 38 that I'd spend the next several years obsessively researching women's metabolic health, hormones, and GLP-1 medications — I'd have laughed. I was too busy trying every diet, every supplement, and every piece of conflicting advice the internet could throw at me.
The weight that crept on after 40 didn't respond to anything I'd tried before. The fatigue was real. The food cravings were relentless. My doctor told me I was 'just getting older.' I knew something was actually wrong — I just couldn't find anyone willing to explain what it was.
HerGlowing started as my personal research project. I documented everything I learned about metabolism, hormones, GLP-1 medications, and what was actually working for women in my situation. Other women started finding it. Then a lot of other women. And now here we are — 18,000 of us, figuring this out together.
I'm not a doctor. I'm a woman who refused to stop asking questions — and got good enough at finding answers that I decided to share them. Everything on this site is what I wish someone had told me five years ago.
Dr. Maya brings clinical perspective to everything we publish. With a background in internal medicine and a specific focus on metabolic health and GLP-1 therapies, she reviews our medical content to ensure accuracy, safety, and clinical relevance. She believes strongly that women deserve better health information — and that accessible, honest education is a form of care.
Her role at HerGlowing is to make sure that when we say something is backed by research, it actually is — and to flag anything that might mislead or oversimplify a complex health topic.
Renee has spent over a decade helping women over 35 navigate fitness, nutrition, and lifestyle through every hormonal shift life throws at them. She writes HerGlowing's wellness and movement content — and she's the first to say that 'just exercise more' is the least helpful advice you can give a woman over 40 dealing with a genuine metabolic shift.
Her angle is always practical: what can you actually do today, with the energy and time you realistically have, that will make a measurable difference? No bootcamp culture. No guilt. Just what works.
