![]() Shoshana: It’s been quite an amazing journey, actually. Can you tell us a little bit about what that journey has been like for you? So you said you recently entered the world into advocacy. And so my group quickly grew, and that was how I initially got into patient advocacy. So that is very new to me, and it’s just happened in the past 14, 15 months that I’ve got actually involved in advocacy.Īnd I started that out by beginning a group that was specifically aimed at helping people who are navigating the new CGRP medications that were made available last year. But it’s always amazing to me, as I look back, that I never actually spoke about migraine or chronic pain. Well, my background is really all around the non-profit arena, different roles, and I ended up doing non-profit management and a lot of public speaking for several decades, actually.
