Wheels to Wellbeing
A Practical Guide to Living a More Balanced Life
Life isn't meant to be lived at full speed all the time.
When one area of our lives is neglected—our health, relationships, purpose, finances, rest, or joy—it affects everything else. Like a bicycle wheel with a broken spoke, we may still move forward, but the ride becomes harder than it needs to be.
Wheels to Wellbeing offers a simple framework for creating greater balance, resilience, and fulfillment by strengthening the areas of life that matter most.

About the Book
After an unexpected health crisis forced me to slow down, I realized that wellness isn't just about taking better care of our bodies.
It's about creating a life that supports our whole selves.
Using the bicycle wheel as a metaphor, Wheels to Wellbeing explores the essential "spokes" that keep us balanced—from movement and nutrition to relationships, purpose, boundaries, rest, and personal growth.
Rather than striving for perfection, this book invites you to make small, intentional adjustments that create a stronger, steadier foundation for the life you want to live. That shift from busyness to balance is at the heart of the book. It grew out of your own experience learning to slow down, set boundaries, and redefine success after surgical menopause.

A Personal Note
For years, I believed success meant doing more, working harder, and staying busy.
Life had other plans.
This book grew out of the lessons I learned when I was forced to slow down, reassess my priorities, and discover that true wellness isn't about perfection—it's about living in alignment with what matters most.
My hope is that these pages encourage you to strengthen your own spokes, find your balance, and enjoy the ride.
With love, gratitude, and kindness,
Lori
