About Us

Kuel Life redefines midlife for women via meaningful, curated content and women-driven brands.

 

MESSAGE FROM JACK:

In my 50s, I began to notice the ‘disappearing act’ of relevant, useful, information and opportunities for women my age. Outside of a barrage of marketing messages that we should be using botox, fillers, or cut our hair short; there didn’t seem to be much. Vibrant, energetic, at the ready for adventure, I was dismayed that most lifestyle websites target the ‘below 35’ age group. The few ‘age appropriate’ lifestyle websites I stumbled across were riddled with advertisements; making it near impossible to determine where the content ended and the marketing began. Enter Kuel Life.

Kuel Life delivers relevant, ad-free, content to women 45+. We share and empower each other with expert advice and stories from real women; women who are our friends, neighbors, colleagues, and family. Women to whom we can relate. A virtual space where women come together in community and share our voice and experiences.

The Kuel Shop’s mission is to find, select, and showcase WOMEN-DRIVE brands. Founder and CEO, Jacqueline (Jack) Perez hand selects the products; creating an opportunity for us all to shop ‘small’, even online. When you buy an item from the Kuel Shop you weave yourself into that woman entrepreneur’s storyline; you become part of the fabric of women empowering women. Purchase with a purpose; Shop Kuel.

Where does the name KUEL LIFE come from?

When we thought about what we wanted the site to offer, we referred to our founding principles.

Do I have to be 45+ to enjoy the site?

No. You can support women-owned brands at ANY age. It’s a great place to find gifts for the people you love and make a difference – Purchase with a Purpose. However, the content is really focused on women 45+, so if you have a family member or friend in that age demographic please share Kuel Life with them.

Do I have to be a member to access the site?

Both non-members and members can access our site. Members, however, can interact with other members and access the Kuel Life Category Experts with questions. There is some content available ONLY to members. In addition, some Kuel Life Category Experts will host ‘office hours’ for Kuel Life members. In addition members get a 10% discount in the Kuel Shop!
