Embracing Maturity: A Tribute to Women Beyond Their Youthful Years
Title: Spotlighting Extraordinary Women Over 50: Gardenuity's Lemonade Movement Against Don Lemon's Remark
You know that snub by Don Lemon about presidential candidate Nikki Haley being "past her prime" at 51? Well, Donna Letier, the 60-year-old CEO of Gardenuity - a gardening for wellness company - isn't having it. She's turning lemons into lemonade and shining a light on kickass women over 50 who are making significant strides.
Here's the deal: Donna's asking you to share your own stories of amazing women 50 and over who are rocking it in businesses, social movements, and communities. Send it over (250 words or less) to [email protected]!
Gardenuity plans to share one story every week for 12 months on their website, blog, and social media, putting the spotlight on 52 high achievers. Plus, they'll gift each winner with a "Lemon to Lemonade" garden featuring plants like Lemon Balm, Lemon Basil, Lemongrass, Lemon Thyme, Lemon Verbena, and Lemon Mint.
To kick things off, Gardenuity's first "Lemon to Lemonade" garden will go to Arianna Huffington, who Donna admires for her work on well-being in the workplace. Additionally, the garden will also be gifted to CNN co-hosts Poppy Harlow and Kaitlan Collins.
As a woman who's built a successful company in her 50s, Donna's fed up with ageist comments like Don Lemon's. She's inspired by women like Arianna Huffington, Bobbi Brown, Donna Morris, Joanna Coles, Jennifer Deutsch, Julie Sweet, Margaret-Mary Wilson, Theresia Gouw, and Brandy Demeris, who are breaking boundaries and making a difference. So, thank you, Don Lemon, for igniting a conversation about the fantastic contributions older women are making!
The "Lemon to Lemonade" Garden includes custom soil, nutrients, a collection of herbs, and a season of Gardenuity's Grow Pro, which offers weather alerts, recipes, and microsteps to cultivate personal well-being.
