About Jeannie McGinnis
**In mid-March 2020, my family had Covid-19. Though I had a moderate case, I continued with lingering symptoms which are now at 125+ days.
Many of my latest blog posts are regarding Covid-19 that hopefully may be a help to others.
And a little about my background . . .
I’ve spent over 30 years in the beauty, health and wellness sector in various capacities. In my late 40s, besides a ’95 BA in Journalism & Media, I have qualifications in Advanced Holistic Nutrition, Plant-based Nutrition, Skin – Hormones and Nutrition as well as Aroma Therapy. I’m currently in a Level 4 certification for Skin Analysis and Aesthetics and writing a dissertation on skin and nutrition.
I firmly believe you can put the brakes on signs of premature ageing through nutrition and lifestyle tweaks and I have a passion for a holistic approach to healthy skin and the body.
As a certified coach/mentor & public speaker, I also have a diverse media career which includes voice overs, TV/stage presenting and commercial modelling. However, around when I turned 40 years old is when many of these things started. From around the ages of 25 – 40 I actually was in a pastoral capacity as a coach, mentor and lay counsellor. I still have that same passion, but it looks different in the wellness sector.
I arrived in the UK originally from Texas in 2003 and now have dual Brit/American citizenship with my fantastic husband and two brilliant teenagers.
I’m also Forever Living’s UK & Ireland Advisory Board Skin Care and Beauty trainer and love equipping Forever Business Owners on our aloe based products & skin nutrition.

Week 15 ½, Day 103 Covid-19
I haven’t posted in a while because the narrative changed regarding systemic racism, which is vitally important in such a time as this; however, there is also a terrible pandemic still happening and in many US states the cases are rising. So before I give the...
A case study for RICOVR – a Covid Recovery and Research Centre
