This is the last one, and if you’ve been with us for the first two sessions, you already know this series hits different.

If you’re just finding out about it, you’re right on time. Wednesday, October 7, at 6 p.m. ET is the final session of This Is Lupus: The Reality for Black Women, and we’re closing it out with the conversation nobody has early enough. Kidney health, long-term wellness, and what it actually looks like to thrive with lupus, not just manage it. Lupus nephritis affects up to 50% of people with lupus, and Black women are significantly more likely to develop it. But most of us don’t hear about that until something is already wrong, and by then you’re playing catch-up with your own health because nobody told you what to watch for. This session is about getting ahead of that. Dr. Sharica Brookins, nephrologist, is breaking down what’s happening in your body, what your labs are actually telling you, and what questions you should be asking your care team right now, not later. Dr. Charisma Atkins is bringing the patient perspective, because clinical knowledge means more when it comes from someone who lives it too. And Zenovia Wright is moderating the whole thing. This series was built for you. The last session is free, it’s virtual, and it’s the one you don’t want to miss.
