Putting brain health at the center of women’s wellness — that’s the conversation 🧠✨
On The Kara Goldin Show, I sit down with Helen Christoni, Co-Founder of Make Time Wellness, a brand redefining women’s wellness by focusing on cognitive health, daily wellness habits, and science-backed support for the brain.
Helen’s journey started long before Make Time Wellness. A longtime wellness marketing executive and ultramarathoner, she spent years helping grow wellness brands while also navigating deeply personal experiences with dementia and mental health struggles within her own family. But through those experiences, she noticed a major gap she couldn’t ignore: women were prioritizing skincare, fitness, hormones, and longevity — but rarely talking about brain health until it became a crisis.
That realization became Make Time Wellness — a brand Helen co-founded alongside Emma Heming Willis to help women prioritize their brain, body, and beauty through education, awareness, and science-backed wellness products. Built around the idea that cognitive health should be part of everyday wellness, Make Time Wellness is helping bring a once-overlooked conversation into the mainstream.
We talk about Helen’s personal journey with dementia and cognitive health, why women’s brain health has been historically overlooked, and what it takes to build trust in a crowded wellness and supplement space. We also get into the realities of launching an emerging wellness brand, expanding into retailers like Vitamin Shoppe and Ulta, and how Make Time Wellness approaches education without fear-based marketing.
Helen also shares how her background in wellness brand-building shaped her approach as a founder, the lessons she’s learned scaling an early-stage company, and why she believes brain health is becoming the next major frontier in women’s wellness.
If you are interested in what it takes to build a mission-driven wellness brand, why cognitive health matters more than ever, or where the future of women’s wellness is headed — check out this interview on my podcast now.

This podcast is amazing! Insightful, uplifting, inspiring, thought provoking…I can’t get enough! As a recent college graduate trying to chart my own path…I find golden nuggets of wisdom in every podcast. I’ve been following Kara for years and love getting to know her in this facet. Such a valuable listen!
Kara has a great balance of getting to the details and finding the deeper threads of the concepts while keeping things fluid and fun. A must listen for anyone looking to learn.
I am so inspired by Kara and not a bit surprised by the line up of “movers and shakers” she has chosen to interview. When I saw Dr. Robert Lustig on the list I was absolutely delighted! Keep up the fight against sugar, Kara, and keep inspiring others on a daily basis! Thank you for what you do.
I love Kara’s questions and her naturally flowing conversations with her guests. I’ve learned so much about developing your own business with little to no experience from the episodes with Alli Webb, Randi Zuckerberg and Ellen Bennett. Kara can relate too based off of her interview in Rebecca Jarvis’ no limits podcast which makes it even more relatable for me. Great job!!!
