This feeling of powerlessness is one that our guest, an experienced nurse turned passionate advocate, knows all too well. Starr Burke Mrs. Michigan joins us to share her determined journey in advocating for our most vulnerable citizens - senior residents in long-term care facilities. In a move that may raise eyebrows, Starr’s harnessing the power of pageants to bring attention to this issue. Pageantry, once seen as mere beauty contests, is now a platform for advocacy, where women of all backgrounds redefine beauty standards and champion for social causes. We dive into the industry's evolution and the need for an inclusive environment that empowers women to become more than just beauty queens but change-makers in their communities. We round off our discussion with a deep-dive into the wisdom that age brings. Our guest shares a heart-wrenching story of patient loss, underlining the need for advocacy beyond the elderly to include children. We reflect on the final stages of life, the profound insights they often bring, and how the spirit endures even when the physical body relents. Join us on this crucial conversation on elderly care reform and the small steps we can all take to effect change.Connect with Starr Burke Mrs. Michigan HERE!Instagram!Resources!https://linktr.ee/IMPACTinhealthcarehttps://linktr.ee/patientsrising You May Not Have To Pay That Hospital Bill Join our free men's community! Click here for more information Join our free men's community! Click here for more informationSupport the showJoin our Discord community now and start your transformation today!MEN click here ----- WOMEN click hereIf you want more information on our programs head over to our website here <<<⭐Thank you for listening to our podcast!
