Official Bio
Health and wellness entrepreneur Jacqui Burge champions studying what it means to be well for you. Jacqui’s not shy in acknowledging that her varied past led her to the understanding that there’s no one-size-fits-all definition of what it means to be ‘well’. A health and yoga proponent since the mid-90s, her interest in the stress and strain of workplace environments on our physical, mental, and spiritual outlook led her to become one of the first in the field to design comprehensive employee programs, workshops and videos proffering meditation, nutrition, yoga, and holistic engagement as CEO of Desk Yogi.
Now in her 50s, Jacqui has expanded her explorations to wellness at every age, specifically maintenance of musculo-skeletal strength through menopause. “As women, our bodies and our healthy aging are not supported. We become invisible. No longer relevant in Western medicine, in the marketplace, in media. I want XO Jacqui to be one step in changing that.” XO Jacqui offers protein powders and products to provide symptom relief and support women in every stage of menopause and beyond.
In all her studies, Jacqui’s philosophy remains clear, “You have to be an advocate for you. If you don’t find out what works for you in terms of getting healthier and achieving that balance throughout your life, you’re not going to get anywhere. It’s about being more experimental with your experiences, staying curious and not being fearful to step out of your comfort zone for that greater reward.”
