We are seeking Black women over 40 who are ready to take control of their health and receive culturally sensitive education and support to manage Types 1 and 2 diabetes, gestational diabetes, and pre-diabetes.
FIT Over 40 is a reimagined version of our signature diabetes prevention program, FIT Over 30. This time, it’s for Black women diagnosed with diabetes, is backed by national accreditation and delivered through our upcoming Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support (DSMES) program.
We understand the unique challenges our community faces when it comes to managing chronic health conditions—and we also know the power of culturally responsive care. This program offers more than education. It offers empowerment, sisterhood, and holistic strategies that are embedded in our W.E.L.L. Philosophy.
What You Can Expect:
Support that Feels Like Home
A welcoming, supportive environment led by Black women for Black women.
Whole-Person Wellness
Weekly sessions that go beyond the numbers—covering nutrition, movement, medication, stress, and sustainable habit-building.
Insurance-Covered Access
The ability to use your insurance for covered participation (Medicare, Medicaid, and most private plans)
A Place You Belong
This isn’t just a program—it’s a space where your identity, culture, and lived experiences are centered and respected.
Join the Interest List
The program launches this summer in Colorado. Space will be limited.
If you or someone you know is ready to feel seen, heard, and supported on their diabetes journey, we invite you to join our early interest list today. We’ll follow up with next steps once enrollment opens.
4 Reasons Why We Focus on
Black Women Over 40
01
Higher Risk, Greater Need
The risk of developing type 2 diabetes increases significantly after age 40, particularly for Black women, who are disproportionately affected due to systemic health disparities. This program meets you right when the stakes get higher—and the support matters most.
02
A Critical Life Stage
At this point in life, many women are juggling work, caregiving, menopause, and years of unaddressed stress. FIT Over 40 creates a space to reset, refocus, and reclaim your health with intention.
03
Ready for Real Wellness
This age group is more likely to engage in preventive care and long-term wellness planning. Our program provides the structure and cultural understanding needed to take sustainable action.
04
Community Ripple Effect
Black women over 40 are often anchors in their families and communities. By equipping you with tools and support, you become a source of inspiration and influence for those around you.
