A fantastic production being viewed and re-visited by Girls Bleed Too. Followed by interaction with Isabelle and Kim, two of the films featured contributors - join them and GBT for a critical conversation happening in the women's space. ๐Ÿ’œโ™€

On October 8, we're screening Dismissed.

It's a documentary about women and girls with bleeding disorders and what it takes to be believed. If you've ever been told your bleeding was normal and weren't sure it was, you'll recognize a lot of it.

After the film, Isabelle Capsel and Kim Hernandez โ€” two of the women featured in it โ€” join us live for a conversation and open Q&A. You'll be able to ask them anything.

Wednesday, October 8 ยท 8 PM ET ยท Free Online
Can't make it live? Register anyway and we'll send you the replay.

Your camera and mic stay off the whole time, so you can watch privately.

We have had the honor and privilege to be working with GutMonkey since 2015 when the Leverage program was first pioneered for adults affected by an inhibitor. Over ten years later their unwavering support of our programs couldn't be more appreciated ๐Ÿ’œ We look forward to the next program together with them and the next InhibitCon!

Living with Factor X means carrying one of the rarest bleeding disorders largely without a roadmap, and often, without anyone nearby who truly gets it.

All our upcoming webinars are in one place! โ†ช https://ches.education/webinars

Join CHES and Bri Beck, LCPC, ATR-BC, for some creative reflection time, and an open group discussion, we'll explore what it means to live with Factor X not just medically, but emotionally, and the quiet power of being truly understood by someone who has lived it too.
