My presentations

My first ‘Pinot & Prevention Party’ – November 2008

“Dear Carolyn . . .   Thank you for sharing your story at last evening’s talk. Delightful, entertaining, yet serious and vitally important!”

As a heart attack survivor and a 2008 graduate of the WomenHeart Science & Leadership Symposium for Women with Heart Disease at Mayo Clinic, my hope now is to help kick some collective female butt around here raise awareness of women’s heart disease, the #1 killer of women.

This is all from the unique grassroots perspective of a Mayo Clinic-trained heart attack survivor. (Read more about that amazing Symposium experience on the Sharing Mayo Clinic website).

As my health allows, I volunteer to speak to women’s groups, health care professionals, workplace wellness events, service club meetings, community organizations, conferences and at Heart & Stroke Foundation events in or around Victoria and Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.  Topics covered include women’s cardiac risk factors, how to address those risks, and heart attack symptoms that may surprise you. Each talk is based on the most recent cardiology information from the Mayo Women’s Heart Clinic and other experts, and tailored to fit the specific needs and time requirements of each audience.

Upcoming public presentations:

May 25, 2012, 10-11 a.m. “All About Women & Heart Disease”, James Bay New Horizons Centre, 234 Menzies Street – Room 3 (TOPS); Victoria, BC Canada. Free admission.

Get in touch with me for more information. These talks are booked up to three months in advance.
