She stated, “I developed “Beautiful Woman Inside and OutTM” as a result of my passion and continued lifelong mission to provide women with the tools that are necessary to successfully navigate through life. I embrace womanhood and think that we should take time for ourselves, learn more about the inner beauty that we all have and also develop the regimen that will enhance our outer beauty. I dare women to take the time for themselves they will not regret it.”
An energetic and engaging speaker, author, health educator/physician and health strategist/consultant, Dr. Sharon passionately advocates for women and offers information in a way that women around the country readily embrace. She is a media personality with an extensive presence in television, radio and print and is one of the nation’s most influential physicians and health advocates.

I am coming HOME; last year we were in Charlotte and now in Raleigh and I am so excited!” said Dr. Sharon.
