About Anissa Buckley MBA, CHHC, CPT:

Anissa Buckley has gone from Fortune 500 marketer to successful entrepreneur with 2 exits to global endurance adventurer, always using her passion for optimal wellness as a guide. Her latest venture is b-untethered, a company dedicated to helping women maximize their midlife through a science-based, proprietary food, fitness, and exploration app and program. Prior to b-untethered (2020), Buckley developed the grocery retail industry’s leading nutrition database, healthyAisles™ which scores grocery items for health claims. Vestcom International acquired Buckley’s company in 2007. She then spent 8 years as Vice President of health and wellness at Vestcom advising 30 top U.S. grocery and drug retailers on health & wellness strategies. Here, Buckley negotiated a SuperValu and Harvard medical affiliate partnership to co-develop one of the first retail nutrition programs: Nutrition IQ™, which was featured in The Wall Street Journal for its innovative approach. In 2011, she was invited to The White House to confer with President Obama’s personal chef and the first lady’s advisor on the Let’s Move program. Before these successes, Buckley sharpened her business skills for 15 years in various marketing and sales positions with Procter & Gamble, Sprint, Reebok and Birds Eye Foods. She additionally cofounded Real Life Food and Fitness — a gym which included fresh 500 calorie meals, HIIT fitness classes and health coaching under one roof. She sold the company in 2015. 

In 2014, at age 46, Buckley had a personal transformation as several events occurred within 8 months: Both parents died, her 12-year marriage dissolved and she sold her 2nd business. The situation forced Buckley to reevaluate her goals, which she found is a common event for many in midlife. She decided to pursue her life’s passion of researching the keys to optimal wellbeing, and spent the next 4 years traveling the globe, training for endurance events with a former British pro-cyclist and transitioning to a minimalist lifestyle.

B-UNTETHERED Since 2015, Buckley has undertaken physical and mental challenges, and studied lifestyle impact, in an effort to understand how women can age vibrantly through menopause. The culmination of her research is b-untethered, a science-based midlife women’s wellness and adventure business. The company provides women with a proprietary blend of personalized, prescriptive tools, information and support to achieve their best health heading into and out of menopause.
