e are all born with a gift. Steve Harvey says your gift is “the thing you do at your absolute best with the least amount of effort.” Many women find it early in life, while others don’t discover it until much later. Some find a way to translate their gift into a successful career. Their unique blend of capabilities and expertise puts them way ahead in finding or succeeding at their life’s work.

Tune into Robin’s new podcast, I’ve Got a Secret!, to feel empowered and informed to live your happiest and healthiest life. She created her original skincare line, Revelation, to encourage women to believe that it is not selfish to put themselves first, to understand that they deserve to embrace their own beauty, health and happiness, and to know they must take care of themselves in order to take care of those they love. Read more about Robin’s accomplishments in our article. Denise Austin has known her gift for 40 years. She has been a champion for women who aspire to be healthy, active and vital at every stage of life. Denise has published 12 books, sold more than 24 million exercise videos, and her TV show, “Denise Austin’s Daily Workout,” was the #1 fitness show on TV for 24 years. Currently, she’s helping women create a lifestyle that fits their goals with her website programs on DeniseAustin.com. Debra Newell knew her gift from the age of five.

Some of you may know Debra from her hit Bravo TV series, “Dirty John.” Moving on to the next chapter of her life, Newell opened her new company, Ambrosia Home, Inc., and
