www.womanthismonth.com November 2019 6 What a month it’s been putting together our 200th issue. For this momentous occasion, we caught up with some very special ladies for our Women of Substance feature. From the mum who started a school to help her autistic son to the lady engineer who’s risen to the top in, what once was, a man’s world and from the behind-the-scenes charity stalwart do the doctor taking on a top spot in her profession, we’ve been inspired by each and every one of them, and I’m sure you will be too. We also caught up with former Bahrain resident Jaqueline Fernandez who was in Dubai to launch her fashion brand collaboration. Did you go to school with her, you might be surprised at what she’s up to these days. In a special feature this month, Shirley Potter tells of her experience on this year’s Jeep Wanderlust escape – the driving and wellness aspects sound fun but I’m glad I didn’t have to do that 5k run, I’d have needed a bit more than yoga to revive me! And, in well-being Behnaz takes a look at mental decline in ageing – not a pleasant topic but, let’s face it, it comes to us all one day. So, strategies to slow the hands of time are always very welcome. Laetitia and Theresa, the women behind liveandtaste.com, are back with some super-healthy winter warmer recipes for you to try – I might even be inspired to get in the kitchen myself for these yummy dishes. And as always we have our regular round-ups of news from the worlds of fashion, beauty and wellbeing plus more to read besides.
