Hi All, it’s Dementia Darling and I am absolutely thrilled to share something that has been close to my heart and promises to be a game-changer for the dementia community!! Let me introduce you to the much-anticipated release of “Dementia Divas!”

“Dementia Divas” is not your typical TV show; it’s a monumental leap forward in our journey to create a more empathetic and understanding world for those touched by dementia! At its core, this show is an extraordinary platform for educating, enlightening, and embracing the complexities of dementia.

It stars none other than the remarkable Teepa Snow and Dr. Macie P. Smith—two leading educators in the field of dementia care! These two women bring a wealth of knowledge, compassion, and expertise to the audience. Their dedication to improving the lives of those living with dementia and their caregivers is inspiring, to say the least. Yours truly will be a regular guest on “Dementia Divas”! I am deeply honored to be part of this groundbreaking project. Together, we’ll navigate the highs and lows, the laughter and tears, and everything in between.

Now, let’s talk about the mission of “Dementia Divas.” It’s about so much more than just entertainment—it’s about empowerment, advocacy, and breaking down the stigma surrounding dementia! This all starts with education and discussion, and this show will delve into a wide range of topics, from recognizing early warning signs and discussing the latest research to offering practical caregiving tips and strategies for maintaining the most dignified care!

One of the most powerful aspects of “Dementia Divas” is the platform it provides for ALL voices to be heard! It’s a testament to the strength, resilience, and unwavering spirit of those living with dementia and their caregivers! These stories and voices need to be heard by all and I am so grateful this is starting the public conversation!

“Dementia Divas” is a shining beacon of hope, destined to touch hearts, open minds, and unite us in our mission to create a more inclusive and compassionate world for those living with dementia and their loved ones!

This series will be available in many ways, specifically through Direct TV and Saltbox TV, so stay tuned, and make sure to watch the trailer above!
