Women's Health
In honor of Diabetes Awareness Month, I presented "Sweet Talk: Understanding Diabetes" to a network of professional women, addressing the critical link between high-stress careers and metabolic health. This initiative empowered attendees to view preventative health and self-advocacy as essential components of their long-term professional success
Delivered the "Love My Heart Export" presentation to address the critical nuances of cardiovascular disease, specifically focusing on risk factors unique to women.
