SUMMARY:Mount Sinai "Thriving with Woman to Woman" Program
DESCRIPTION:Founder of Solo Agers Connect\, Jill Kovalich\, is the May presenter of Mount Sinai Hospital’s Thriving with Woman to Woman program webinar. She will talk about aging alone as a solo ager\, self-reliance\, independence\, and nurturing a positive outlook for our futures. \nThe Woman to Woman program of The Mount Sinai Hospital offers help and hope throughout a person’s gynecologic cancer journey—whether they are newly diagnosed\, a long-time survivor\, experiencing a recurrence\, or anywhere in between. After being diagnosed with gynecologic cancer\, the road ahead can seem uncertain. But we believe no one should have to face this diagnosis alone. \nThriving with Woman to Woman: Choosing Happiness\nThe purpose of this monthly group is to help you nurture the non-cancer aspects of your life and thrive despite challenges. Navigating a cancer diagnosis and survivorship can feel like a full-time job. It can easily overtake your life and be the lens through which you view all of your experiences and interactions. However\, you are extraordinary women with interests\, hobbies\, passions\, fears\, dreams and so much more. You all deserve to feel happy and fulfilled. \nCo-led by Audrey Carlson\, Woman to Woman volunteer and founder of the Hartford Happiness Club\, this group will alternate esteemed guest speakers with topic-driven interactive exercises to help participants learn how to achieve balance so you can not just survive\, but thrive. \nFor more information about the Mount Sinai Woman to Woman program\, CLICK HERE. \nFor more information on the Woman to Woman Program at Mount Sinai\, watch the YouTube video HERE.
