Forager Editor Kat Yi Cuts Mary J Blige in Super Bowl Spot for Hologic

In her first Super Bowl commercial, Forager editor Kat Yi shines the spotlight on Hologic, an innovative medical technology company primarily focused on improving women’s health, in a campaign featuring Grammy Award-winning and Academy Award nominated artist, actress and producer Mary J. Blige. The television advertisement, titled 'Her Health is Her Wealth', created by CHÉ Creative and directed by child., highlights how despite Ms. Blige’s busy life, as she travels from set to studio to gym to boardroom, she still makes time in her schedule for her annual Well-Woman visit.

Too often women have normalized the abnormal, especially when it comes to their health. This is where the Well-Woman Exam comes in. Part exam and part conversation, this annual appointment is unique to each woman’s needs, depending on her age, lifestyle and medical History.

Hologic wants women to be knowledgeable at every age and life stage about their bodies, the diagnostic tests they should take to track their health, and should care intervention be needed, to know as soon as possible so they can take action.

Forager is proud to have been in the company of powerful, women-led partners that include:
