Entrepreneur has published a new article to inspire readers, “How Loss Can Become the Fuel for Your Legacy,” by exploring how three women — Lindsay O’Neill-O'Keefe, Pam Gold, and Jenna Zwagil — rebuilt their lives and careers after major personal disruption. Read the full article HERE.
Written by Wellness Eternal founder Lindsay O’Neill-O'Keefe, the article traces how back-to-back divorces, pandemic uncertainty, and the collapse of a business partnership became the unexpected foundation for rebuilding her company and redefining her mission.
The story also highlights two women whose paths of reinvention helped shape Lindsay's own:
- Pam Gold, founder of HACKD Fitness (now PRTL), who evolved her NYC performance-tech studio into a space centered on nervous system regulation, clarity, and whole-person wellness as the post-pandemic world shifted away from “faster” toward “fuller.”
- Jenna Zwagil, who moved from homelessness to multimillion-dollar entrepreneurship, later losing her marriage and sense of identity — then rebuilding her life around three principles: wisdom, wealth, and wellness, while raising four children and speaking publicly about sovereignty and alignment.
Together, the narratives reflect a broader trend among women entrepreneurs. As the article cites, single mothers now lead one in three women-owned businesses in the U.S., with the majority pursuing growth not for vanity metrics but for generational impact.
The piece underscores a shared theme: reinvention isn’t a dramatic pivot — it’s a series of small, values-driven decisions shaped by truth, resilience, and community.
