Amy Derck

What does it really mean to be a caregiver?
This Thursday (7/17) at 8:30 AM, we’re excited to welcome Amy Derek as our 10-minute speaker at the Chapel Hill Women in Networking Group. We’ll be meeting at Grata Diner in Carr Mill Mall (Carrboro) — and this talk is one that will truly stay with you.
Amy will be sharing the heartfelt inspiration behind her memoir: Coming Home to Yourself: Care for the Caregivers — a deeply personal story of her and her husband’s journey with multiple myeloma.
Through her experience, Amy will explore how caring for an ill loved one at home profoundly impacts the caregiver, and why it’s time we debunk the myth of “just take care of yourself.”
She’s not just sharing a story — she’s opening a conversation about support, identity, and strength in caregiving.
Whether you’re a caregiver, know someone who is, or simply want to be part of a powerful, real discussion… this one’s for you.
Come connect, get inspired, and meet the incredible women in our WIN community.
Join us!!!
