Publisher's Summary

Your dreams are still alive.

The decisions we make from our hearts, using good guidance and information, are often the best ones. Our culture focuses on reactionary health care rather than proactive life decisions. This approach can be devastating if we wait too long to choose a positive living environment.

This book will show you how to:

  • Make proactive, educated decisions versus reactive, crisis-driven decisions
  • Identify the key influencers and their roles in the decision process
  • Understand the difference between aging in place and putting in place what you need to age well

Her extensive experience eminently qualifies her as navigator, counselor, and coach to help you make the decisions that will significantly impact the quality of the next phase of your life. Where you live does matter, and Be Your Own Hero will help you make the right choices." (Roger Landry, MD, MPH, author of Live Long, Die Short)
