Women’s Workshop – Addressing Kidney Health and Diabetes Together

Wednesday, May 1st, 2024
12:00 PM (EDT)
Workshop (6)

This workshop aims to provide a supportive environment for women navigating the challenges of kidney disease. Diabetes is a primary contributor to kidney disease, underscoring the importance of managing these two health conditions effectively.

Throughout the workshop, we will explore strategies for effectively managing diabetes to mitigate the risk of the progression of the disease, share personal stories, offer mutual support, and empower each other to live with kidney disease.

We are honored to have two experts lead the discussion: a Registers Dietitian, Certified Diabetes Care, and Education Specialist, who will provide valuable tips related to nutrition when experiencing kidney disease, and a resilient and empowered woman who has dealt with end-stage kidney disease and is the recipient of a kidney transplant. Her inspiring story will enlighten and guide you on your journey forward.

Key Takeaways:

  1. Gain valuable insights from a registered dietitian on nutrition strategies to manage diabetes and kidney disease.
  2. Draw inspiration and learn from the experience of a courageous woman who has dealt with end-stage kidney disease, offering valuable firsthand tips and advice.
  3. Enjoy a supportive environment where women can share their challenges and stories in a safe environment.

Join us for an empowering Women’s Workshop tailored for those with diabetes and those at risk, where we delve into topics often left unexplored. Led by peers and experts, this workshop is designed to address your unique needs.

We’ll facilitate conversations that tackle unanswered questions and dive into topics not commonly discussed. From diet to management and prevention, this workshop will provide valuable insights, tools, and strategies to help you navigate your kidney health journey with confidence.

Don’t miss this opportunity to gain valuable knowledge, tools, and connect with other women facing similar challenges.
