Welcome to S.T.A.R.T.
The Conversation For Caregivers™
Preparing For The Conversations That Matter Most
Have you ever walked into a healthcare appointment with a lump in your throat and your mind racing, only to leave wondering whether the most important thing ever made it into the conversation? Or perhaps the one thing that mattered most was still unanswered and weighing on your mind.
You prepared. You rehearsed at home and in the car. But then the office door opened, the doctor came in, somehow the words scattered and the visit went in an entirely different direction. Before you knew it, the visit was over, and the conversation never returned to what mattered most.
You are not alone in that moment. And it doesn’t have to stay that way.
That’s why I created S.T.A.R.T. the Conversation for Caregivers™.
The S.T.A.R.T. worksheet is a free, simple, one-page tool — available right now in this app — designed to help you prepare for the conversations that matter most. Whether you’re heading into a primary care visit, a specialist consultation, a therapy appointment, or an unexpected or planned hospital visit, S.T.A.R.T. helps calm the chatter in your head, organize your thoughts, and focus on what matters most, so you feel prepared and confident when it’s time to speak up.
Before you move on, please listen to my personal welcome message.
