Who Was Your Favourite Teacher?

I’ve been thinking a lot about the teachers I had growing up. We all have stories of not so good ones. But what about the great ones? It’s no secret that our early years define us.

Putting The ZOOM 🚀 Back In The Room! ANDROPAUSE!

I’ve added a new supplement for men in the fabuwellness family. Working in the pharmacy I encountered many women asking for support for their menopause perimenopause symptoms. They would ask if there was something to help the men in their life too as their partners were struggling too, & even naming their experience carried shame and embarrassment.
