Did you know that a staggering 74% of women in Canada feel that their health concerns aren’t taken seriously? That’s why we’re kicking off the 2025 season of Between Us with a dynamic in-person session that will empower you to advocate for your own health!

Join this inspiring evening presented by Alberta Blue Cross in collaboration with the Lois Hole Hospital Women’s Society. This session is all about self-advocacy in health care—and we promise it’ll be both enlightening and energizing!

Under the leadership of the exceptional Elisa Proulx, a Communication Coach, Trainer, and Founder of Self-Assured Speakers, you’ll learn how to build confidence, articulate your needs, and ensure that your voice is front and center in all health conversations. With practical strategies at your fingertips, you’ll be ready to ask the right questions, speak up, and take an active role in your journey towards wellness!

But wait, that’s not all! We’re making this experience even more enjoyable with light snacks and refreshments available for all attendees. Plus, you’ll have the chance to connect with others who share a deep commitment to women’s health. So bring your thoughts, bring your questions, and let’s make our voices heard together!
