Condé Nast is planning to shutter Self, its women’s health magazine, after 47 years.

In a memo published on the magazine giant’s website on Thursday, the media company’s CEO, Roger Lynch, explained the decision by saying: “As audience behaviors shift, we have not seen a path for Self to continue in its current form as a digital publication.”
