Welcome to Living Well with Chronic Pain! This FREE one-hour introductory seminar, led by Julie Gruber, is intended for those directly affected by pain as well as for caregivers and loved ones. Chronic pain affects millions of people and most of them are living less than ideal lives, unsure of how to take the reins back and find ways to thrive. I’m interested in sharing some of the non-medical strategies I’ve found helpful.
Please join us for an interactive conversation about ways to live alongside the pain without being governed by it. We will leave any internalized stigma or shame at the door and take our first steps into being in charge of our own lives again. This will be a safe space to discuss several aspects of living with chronic pain and its impact on our lives, while reclaiming our strengths and vitality.
Julie Gruber is a former career educator, writer and artist who is taking a life shift she didn’t ask for and transforming it into a new way of BEING. She is committed to sharing inspiration and encouragement through active and authentic dialogue. She is not a licensed medical provider. However, she does have the lived experience of navigating a life alongside chronic pain and understands the unique challenges involved. She is currently writing a book about all she’s learned on her chronic pain journey and has created her company, The WordWise Project, aimed at helping others living with chronic pain learn strategies for empowerment and resilience.
