Good morning Paul,

Cultural intelligence leader, Collage Group, has compiled fresh insights on women’s health and wellness, finding that women’s time and energy are spread thin. Unfortunately, there is an expectation of women to put others first, while taking on the bulk of household responsibilities. This is coupled with systemic economic inequality, which limits women’s capacity to keep up their own health and wellbeing.

 

Among other facts, the 2023 report found that:

 

• Women consistently report below average levels of satisfaction in terms of their health and wellbeing: 

• 43% say they are physically satisfied;
• 31% say they are financially satisfied;

 

• Women trail men in getting regular exercise, sleep, and having a balanced diet: 

• 35% of women exercise regularly as compared to 46% of men;
• 38% of women report getting enough sleep as compared to 42% of men;

 

• Women spend a great deal of time caring for others: 

• 54% of women provide care for someone with a medical or health condition;
• 33% of women caretakers care for a child (or children) with a health condition;

 

• More than half of all women have had at least one negative encounter with a healthcare provider: 

• 21% of women said the doctor or staff did not listen to me;
• 20% of women said the doctor or staff dismissed or minimized concerns.

 

Collage Group delves into why women are on this path, and provides key findings and action steps that brands can take to support women in improving their health and wellbeing.
