As the axiom goes “A son is a son until he takes a wife, a daughter is a daughter for the rest of her life."
Whether the result of bad planning, no planning, or the feigned incompetence of others, caregiving for older and younger family members disproportionately falls on women. Managing from crisis is not managing – it is floundering. The key to maintaining control is accessing appropriate care services and knowledgeable legal counsel. Inadequate preparation can leave even the most loving family in financial and emotional ruin. Find out what you need to know about elder care, estate, and long-term care planning by attending this presentation.
PRESENTED BY WELLBRIDGE
Workshop will cover the mind and body's cumulative response to stress, the dimensions of compassion, and how that potentially leads to residual burnout. Speakers will discuss the concept of compassion fatigue and more specifically how that relates to women and individuals who take on multi-layered responsibilities, across work, family, and community lines. We will highlight the personal story of a healthcare leader and encourage audience participation through an interactive experiential calling upon attendees' areas of compassion fatigue and over-extension, as well as supportive ways to rebuild, repair, and prevent cumulative stress reactions. Workshop will end with a breathing and sound healing exercise.

Three years ago, Jodie Patterson, a mother of five, stepped into a museum exhibit on city planning – and profoundly saw herself in the cities profiled. She began to ask—what if we defined Mothering differently? What if we viewed Mothers, not as martyrs, but more as city planners? What if their job was not simply to raise tiny humans but to build communities—whole, diverse places where individuals can explore their interests, voice their opinions, and dissent, and move about freely while benefitting from and contributing to shared life? Since then, Patterson has been exploring the lithe art of Genderless Mothering (as in anyone can do it) and the impact such leadership can have far beyond home-life.
