About this Event

3rd Thursday of Every Month | 5 PM – 6 PM | Limited to 20 guests | All ages welcome

Presented by Donna Ivey, healthcare advocate with over 46 years of experience administratively and as a healthcare practitioner.

Because the ones who care for everyone else deserve the tools to succeed.

If you’re juggling the demands of raising kids, managing a career, and supporting aging parents, chances are you’ve felt the strain. What if you had a roadmap to navigate these challenges with clarity and confidence?

This workshop is designed for you—the Sandwich Generation. While enjoying delicious sandwiches, you’ll gain access to critical information most people never receive before becoming caregivers. Often, we are thrown into caregiving for a loved one without the necessary resources, knowledge, or support. This workshop fills that gap, equipping you with the tools and insights to:

• Build plans for your parents’ healthcare and your own

• Avoid common pitfalls in caregiving

• Future-proof your family’s well-being without burning out

You’ll also have the opportunity to ask your most pressing healthcare questions and get real answers tailored to your situation.

Why This Matters: Caregiving is one of the most challenging roles you’ll ever face, and too often, people are left to navigate it alone. This workshop provides you with the knowledge, strategies, and confidence to handle caregiving with clarity and purpose. Seats are limited—secure yours today and take the first step toward better caregiving for your loved ones and yourself.
