Diana understands heart disease all too well as it has played a major role in her life and her family’s.  As an extremely popular Go Red and Heart Health Speaker, Diana shares her stories of loss and prevention.  Losing her mother and recently her brother to this disease has given her an even stronger commitment to help others.

Recently diagnosed with aortic regurgitation, Diana is once again reminded of how heart disease runs in her family. When her cardiologist explained what aortic regurgitation was , she still managed to find the humor, “My love life is so bad even my heart is throwing up” Still finding the funny in life and thereby helping to reduce stress is a key factor in prevention and dealing with heart disease.

“Five of my aunts had heart disease and I grew up knowing how important lifestyle changes and attitude can affect your heart. I love speaking at Go Red luncheons because everyone is always so excited to be there and hear me speak, educate and entertain them!”

Diana considers one of her greatest accomplishments was making her mom laugh during the last few years of her life. Desperate about ways to help her, she discovered the extensive health benefits of laughter and healing. This started her two-year journey resulting in adding years and quality to her mother’s life.

“I remember my first Go Red Luncheon was in a small town in South Texas. In the summer. Hot! “Red clothing was flying off everywhere!”  She was such a hit that the word spread like a Texas wildfire across the country to other affiliates that as a Go Red Speaker, Diana brought personal experience, great take-away, a tear or two, and mostly, much needed laughter which of course is exercise for the heart!

Heart Speaker Objectives:

1.  Diana has educated and entertained thousands of women on healthy heart issues over the past 15 years. The importance of early detection and yearly exams. Further, everyone needs to learn their family heart history and again, get those yearly checkups!
2.  Important facts such as the signs of having  a woman are not always the same as a man. Discovering this can save your life or someone you love!
3.  Understanding how laughter and having a sense of humor are very important ingredients in the prevention of a heart attack and keeping healthy afterward.  Laughter lowers blood pressure, massages the heart and reduces stress, hence giving an overall sense of well-being.

Diana is a strong advocate of early detection and preventative medicine…

A close friend and fellow classmate, Robin Williams taught Diana a thing or two about laughter! “I learned almost everything about comic timing and being fearless from Robin. He was special and inspirational and a genius.  “The Power of a Happy Heart” Presentation emphasizes the fact that approximately 5 years before he passed away Robin had emergency open heart surgery. What we are now discovering since his death is the link between depression and heart disease. I cover this new evidence in my presentations.”

This important study indicates that people with heart disease are more likely to suffer from depression than otherwise healthy people, hence there are more reasons to be proactive regarding your health and your heart.
