August Lunch & Learn | Embracing Emerging Elderhood (Online)

Embracing Emerging Elderhood– Identity, Family Caregiving, and Strength in Transition

By midlife, many individuals begin to realize they are emerging into elderhood—a stage of wisdom, influence, and new responsibilities. This workshop is designed for those who are navigating this transition, often balancing personal growth with caregiving responsibilities for aging parents, partners, or younger generations.
