 Carolyn has discovered a common theme: “People need to be empowered with knowledge and strategies on how to prepare for end-of-life issues. And, the importance of adult siblings and parents having what she calls “crucial conversations” in preparation for the end-of-life issues they may face. Instead of being torn apart, they can come together as a strong family.” Carolyn customizes her talks for each audience and is passionate about delivering life changing principles that assist in achieving the desired outcomes. She is flexible to deliver her messaging for keynotes, workshops, seminars, training programs, or retreats.
