You know more than you realize

For each of us who has already walked the caregiving path, it is important to be advocates. You might say, ‘I am not a trained advocate. What do I know? Who would want to listen?’

I challenge you with this: Each of has up close and personal experiences surrounding our caregiving duties. When you are willing to share your ups, downs, lessons learned, and yes – even the moments that you perhaps feel you failed in some way – we are helping to teach others.

Please join me for this event. I believe we will have a lively discussion that is informative, educational, and supportive.

Registration is FREE – and you can join online from anywhere!

Have specific topics you believe should be mentioned and discussed? Drop it in the comment section. And remember, you can always reach me on my Facebook Page at Julia Yarbough Media Group!

Hope to see you then!

Until next time~
