You’re afraid of getting dementia… but isn’t everyone? Most people are, but your fear might feel bigger. You might have family history, or you feel like your memory is getting worse, or both. It nags at you, and you feel anxious about the future.

If that’s you, you’ve come to the right place! I’m a dementia readiness coach who offers step-by-step guidance from fear of losing your memory to confidence that you can live fully at any stage of a condition like Alzheimer’s.

And yeah, I know, living fully with a progressive neurocognitive disorder like Alzheimer’s might sound impossible. But as a life enrichment specialist, I’ve witnessed that it can be abundantly possible… with the right supports. That’s why I created a 3-step process called the Bridge To Dementia Readiness. The 3 simple, powerful steps are to:

  1. Reclaim your personhood.

  2. Reimagine your future.

  3. And reinvigorate your village.

These 3 things can fundamentally change the experience of dementia. But they’re big, laborious, time-consuming processes, right? Not if you work with me! In my signature 6-session course called Ready To Live Fully, they can be easy, doable, and even fun. And you’re invited to join it now!

Ready To Live Fully: A 6-Session Dementia Readiness Course

The Ready To Live Fully course offers step-by-step guidance from fear of losing your memory to confidence that you can live fully even and especially if you get a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s or another type of dementia.

The curriculum focuses on cultivating personhood and possibilities at any stage of the dementia journey. The classes aren’t lectures- they’re experiential, collaborative, creative exercises to envision and co-create your future. Participants often smile, laugh, and say “wow!” at the end of these classes.

The next 6-week course will start on Wednesday, June 18.

The cost is $450.

Space is limited to ensure that every participant has time to share and ask questions (which is one of the best parts!)
