Celebrate You Woman of the Year 2021 Honors Mary Ellen Ciganovich March 2021 Woman of the Month

“Celebrating yourself means you’re living a life with passion and purpose knowing that you are making the world better. I celebrate myself every day, even on my bad MS days. Celebrating yourself, loving yourself is where healing and success begins,” said Mary Ellen Ciganovich.

Mary Ellen is an educator and consultant at R.E.A.L Health, LLC. She selected the name for her company for what the anagram represents. “Be R.E.A.L. – Really Enthusiastic About Life – because being R.E.A.L. leads you to live your Truth, find your passion, your purpose to make our world just a little bit better!”

She is an inspirational speaker, writer, and author of three books – Healing Words: Life Lessons to Inspire, Taking Responsibility Unleashes True Healing; and Truth Lives, which were released during the pandemic in 2021. In addition to her writing, she is the Executive Producer of the show “Truth of the Day;” Co-host of Cyrus Webb’s Amazon Live show “Words I Choose to Live By” and the Executive Editor of Conversations Live Magazine.

She is seen weekly on social media sharing beautiful life lessons that can be applied in everyone’s daily lives. Mary Ellen is very passionate about conveying spiritual truths to help others transform their lives and live fully as they were divinely created to be. As such, she has been dedicated to posting her Truth of the Day on several social media sites since 2011. All her posts end with Sincerely with love, Mary Ellen Ciganovich.

Mary Ellen believes “Wisdom cannot be taught as wisdom must be learned through your life experiences. Every experience makes you stronger and wiser as you know what you should do, yet more importantly what you should not do.”

Mary Ellen Ciganovich can be found on social media including Facebook, Instagram, Linkedin, and Twitter.

Co-Founder of Celebrate You and CEO of The Bradford Group, LaWanna Bradford explained, “In Celebrate You, we believe that when a woman is able to truly embrace and celebrate herself, she is then able to rise up and make an impact in the lives of her family, her community, the nation, and ultimately the world.”

“During 2021, we celebrated 12 amazing women who dared to face the changes and the challenges and strive to make a difference in the world. These women are unique in their backgrounds, experiences, and professions. However, the one thing they have in common is they live life intentionally and on purpose. They believe in the power of co-creating a life of abundance and impact. These exceptional women are leaders and influencers. They always seek to find ways to encourage, inspire, uplift, and celebrate others,” she said.

Barbara Beckley, Co-Founder, and CEO of The Diamond Factor Experience said, “LaWanna and I found out that by talking about Celebrate You, it was important to reach as many women as possible with our message so that they understand the importance of celebrating themselves and others. This concept continues to resonate and we have more women joining where we now have people who are part of the Celebrate You family from over 20 countries, with our largest presence in the US, UK, Canada, Uganda, and Jamaica.”
