Your Playbook Sponsored by Life Links
Monday, July 22 at 10:00 Guest Speaker: Gretchen Geagan, Owner of Life Links
Topic: Creating Your Aging Playbook (A Hands-On Workshop) A coach wouldn't head into The Big Game without a playbook and a chef wouldn't just start cooking for an important event with a meal plan, but we often head into our "Golden Years" aimlessly hoping things will work out okay. Why? Sometimes because we just don't want to face it, but usually because it's too overwhelming and we just don't know where to start. In this session, Gretchen will provide everyone with a notebook to get started, walking you step-by-step through the documents you need to gather and the questions you need to consider to create your own Aging Playbook. Gretchen is a Certified Professional Geriatric Care Manager with a BS in Human and Organizational Development from Vanderbilt University, an MS in Healthcare Administration from UAB and over 20 years experience working with families on their aging journey. Reservations required. Hot donuts served.
