Someone who understands the science and believes fully that women's brain health deserves to be taken seriously."

About Make Time Wellness
Make Time was created to help women prioritize their brain, body, and beauty—in that order, while making more time for themselves. Founder Emma Heming Willis and Founding Partner and Advisor Helen Christoni were surprised by the lack of education, awareness, and products that prioritize women's brain health. They turned their frustration into a global conversation while providing effective wellness products backed by science to help busy women put their brain health and overall wellness above all else. More than a brand, Make Time is a movement, committed to helping women make time for themselves, providing education, and giving back to charity.
