SUMMARY:The Boundary Blueprint: Keeping Your Sanity in a World Full of Options
DESCRIPTION:Living with myositis means navigating a constant stream of input — from well-meaning family members\, friends\, and co-workers who don’t always know what to say (or when to say it). This webinar tackles the art of setting healthy boundaries with the people closest to you\, and gives you practical language for handling tricky questions and unsolicited advice (“Have you tried yoga?” anyone?). Walk away with real tools to protect your energy\, your peace of mind\, and your relationships. \nAbout the Speaker: Stefanie Remson\, MSN\, APRN\, FNP-BC\, is a family nurse practitioner\, rheumatoid arthritis patient\, and the founder and CEO of Rheumatoid Arthritis Coach\, where she works one-on-one with people living with chronic illness to manage their symptoms\, protect their wellbeing\, and reclaim their lives. Drawing on both her medical background and her own journey with RA\, Stefanie has helped hundreds of people set boundaries\, advocate for themselves\, and build a life that works with their illness — not against it. She has partnered with organizations including the Arthritis Foundation\, the Lupus Foundation of America\, and Healthline\, and is a sought-after speaker and writer on chronic illness\, self-advocacy\, and resilience. \nRegister Here
