ABOUT
Smart Healthy Women began as a wellness publication, but it didn’t stay there for long.
Because it turns out you can’t talk honestly about women’s health without talking about power. Or money. Or control.
What started as a space for wellbeing became something sharper, It's a place to examine the systems shaping women’s lives, and who they actually serve.

Because the systems aren’t broken. They were built this way.
Understanding them is the first step to changing them.
Estelle Williams is the voice behind Smart Healthy Women.
