And finally… a special announcement:
My husband, Jamund, and I have started an event planning company that focuses on organizing events related to mental health and mental illnesses called “Mental Illness Matters.” We are currently working on our first conference, “Anxiety Disorders and Mormonism.” It will be on March 3, 2018 at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building in Salt Lake City. Early bird tickets are coming soon, and we are finalizing our keynote speakers (who are awesome!). We will also announce the call for proposals soon. Follow our page on Facebook for upcoming information!

All of this is so exciting Kari! Is the upcoming conference restricted to just Mormons?
Carol, we would love to have you! It is focused on anxiety disorders as they relate to Mormonism and members of the Church, but we are also excited to have doctors and counselors attending who want to know how to help their religious clients. Two of the keynote speakers will not be Mormon (if all works out as we hope!), and I’m sure you would enjoy hearing from them 😉
Thanks, it would be great to go. Not sure of course if I can, but thanks. Just gave one of my two copies of your book to my Mormon client and saving the other one for Dr. Kosins. Well written, and I am so happy to see you giving back! It keeps us well.
