Share May Flowers and Elevate Women's Health

 

Why Share MayFlowers? The Vision Behind It

Founder's Reflections

May, the month of renewal and blossoming blooms, already dedicates days to honoring mothers and promoting women's health. But Founder Jessica McKinney believes, "Not enough!" She envisions an entire month focused on conversations and actions regarding female pelvic and perinatal health.

Celebrating Womanhood

Embracing Femininity

Jessica, a proud woman herself, celebrates her love for all things feminine, from miniskirts to painted nails. She cherishes the challenges of childbearing and breastfeeding, embodying the strength and intuition that define womanhood. Women worldwide share an unspoken sisterhood, transcending language barriers.

The Resilience of Women

Women are a complex tapestry of beauty and strength. Despite enduring pelvic pain or urinary incontinence, they often prioritize their partner's needs over their health. This resilience can come at a cost, affecting their sensuality. Share MayFlowers aims to change this narrative.

Inspiring Strength

Heroes Among Us

Jessica finds inspiration in strong women like Lyn Lusi, who co-founded Heal Africa in the Democratic Republic of Congo, providing hope and healing. She also admires Brittany Howard of Alabama Shakes, whose music empowers and captivates. These women exemplify strength in different ways.

A Platform for Change

Breaking Taboos

Despite progress in women's health awareness, some topics remain taboo. Share MayFlowers aims to spark open discussions about female pelvic and perinatal health. It's a platform for advocacy, education, and connection, bridging the public, media, and healthcare providers.

Real Issues, Real Change

Facing the Facts

Statistics underline the urgency. Nearly 80% of US women experience childbirth. Pregnancy significantly increases the risk of urinary incontinence. Chronic pelvic pain affects women disproportionately. These issues affect real people—women like you and your loved ones.

Taking Action

Postpartum Neglect

Why do women receive guidance for sprained ankles but not for postpartum recovery? Share MayFlowers challenges this norm. It's time for women to receive the support they deserve during the physical journey of pregnancy and childbirth.

September 2008 Issue of Family Fun

 I always wanted to write. To be a travel journalist, live like a resident, see it as a tourist. It hasn't worked out that way so far... Someday... In the meantime, check out page 80 in the September issue of Family Fun Magazine. In the box on the lower left-hand side of the page is my idea! I love Family Fun Magazine. We have subscribed to it since my second child was born, some fifteen years ago. It's changed some, and some not. It has excellent articles and they are all geared towards being a family...I love that! My favorite section is the cooking articles. I love to try new recipes and FF gears theirs so I can actually cook a great recipe with simplicity so the kiddos can do most of the work! Again, page 80...check it out!

High School Musical 3...and the Mini-Superstar!

The alarm clock downstairs rang announcing today was the day for High School Musical 3 and the mini-superstar living in our basement. Today was the big day. My second child was selected as an "extra" in the filming of High School Musical 3 . Oh, he was excited. He took forever getting ready. Shower, then an extra-long facial, followed by hair gel, hair spray, and my guess, cologne as well. He put on his brown cargo pants and Abercrombie and Fitch shirt and loaded his backpack with his change of clothes. And then, at 8:30 am he stood in the kitchen all gussied up with backpack on and ready. We had to tell him that check-in wasn't for 2-hours and settle in. I think he was sure the clocks had stopped. The excitement was killing him. Finally, it was time to go. As my husband covered instructions with him, what the money was for, where to meet for pick up, where the payphone was, here's your lunch, blah, blah, blah....my son's only response was, "Can...

Desert Thunder--Speedway Illustrated December 2009

 Long before the Modified Circuit knew him, I met him. It was a long, long time ago...almost 25 years ago. He was seventeen a legend in motor-cross and destined for greater things than he'd ever imagined I met him in a sterile hospital with over-polished floors. The decor a bland grey and muted blue . I was sixteen, he was seventeen. It was seven weeks since our birthday. I don't remember him before that moment. I've written about him several times in my blog. Perhaps you remember " Reflections of a Friendship " or " Best Friends". To see him now, featured on the cover of Speedway Magazine's December 2009 issue is impressive. It's not anything I ever doubted he could do. It's not something that defines him to me. It's something that shares with the world the man I most admire--the man who is more whole, more complete than any other person I have been fortunate to meet. Enjoy this tribute written by Mike Adaskaveg and published by Speedwa...
