Editorial Reviews

"Reena's own journey through self-discovery to lead a balanced life and prioritizing her mental and physical health is truly inspiring. The Wellness-Empowered Woman is full of helpful takeaways and is a great reference guide that I can continue to use whenever I am in need of rebalancing!"

- Meredith Momoda, Vice President, Creative Partnerships at NBC Universal and Former Executive at Disney, Yahoo, Discovery Communications, and Oprah Winfrey Network

"Brava to Reena for her rallying cry to "keep moving." Finding my sacred place in the ballet studio as a lifelong hobby amplified my "passion and purpose" from the workplace to the boardroom. Everyone should read this playbook for stimulating your real passions and empowering your life."

- Bonita Stewart, Vice President, Global Partnerships at Google and Co-Author of A Blessing: Women of Color Teaming Up to Lead, Empower and Thrive

"In The Wellness-Empowered Woman, Reena addresses a unique cross-section of personal and professional development, empowerment, and wellness at a time when these tools are more needed than ever. This book will fill you with ideas about how to transform your life."

"Reena's passion for fitness is infectious, and her ideas for staying happy and healthy are ones that any equally busy working mom can use to instantly enrich her life. Her advice is the kind you want to and can act upon immediately-and it's most welcome at this time when mental and physical fitness have taken a backseat to work and family."

- Meredith Bodgas, Lead Editor at Toptal, Former Editor-in-Chief at Working Mother Magazine and Former Editor for Hearst, Condé Nast, and Bauer

Reena is the coach and cheerleader we wish we all had."
