Allie Egan is a queen of reinvention. She began her career in investing before transitioning into marketing for the beauty industry, became CEO of Cynthia Rowley – all before launching into entrepreneurship and establishing Veracity, a holistic beauty brand rooted in hormone health. "We've heard so many stories from our customers," she tells CoveyClub founder Lesley Jane Seymour. "Women will go to their doctors...and they don't really feel listened to. They feel like they're just prescribed a pill." Drawing from her own experience with Hashimotos, a little-known thyroid issue that occurs in 50% of women, Egan aims to help women identify their symptoms and treat their root cause. "We're meant to be the first stop in the journey and also to help empower people to have better, healthier relationships with their physicians." Listen in to get Egan's best advice on how to achieve open, reciprocal communication with your doctor, and learn the exact steps she made to transition her career through multiple reinventions.
