    • The Power of One Woman’s Heart to Change the World - International Women's Day

      The Power of One Woman’s Heart to Change the World - International Women's Day
      Feb 18 2026
      In this powerful International Women’s Day conversation, host Carrie Pascarella of Global Secure Resources welcomes Maria Alexandria Cetățoiu — congenital heart disease survivor, bioengineering PhD candidate, and founder of the Swiss med-tech startup CC Cardio. Born with a rare and complex heart condition that required multiple surgeries and lifelong care, Maria refused to let her diagnosis define her limits. Instead, she transformed her experience into purpose — inventing a groundbreaking medical device designed to improve life expectancy and quality of life for patients with complex congenital heart disease. Maria shares her deeply personal journey from patient to innovator, the challenges facing adults living with childhood heart conditions, and her mission to bring hope to families navigating devastating diagnoses. She also delivers an inspiring message to young women pursuing careers in STEM and medical innovation. This episode shines a special light on the unsung heroes behind many survival stories — the parents who advocate fiercely for their children. We extend heartfelt gratitude to Maria’s mother, whose strength, courage, and unwavering advocacy helped shape Maria’s path and continues to inspire hope for families facing similar battles. As we also recognize Rare Disease Month and American Heart Month, this conversation reminds us that awareness drives action, innovation saves lives, and empowered women change the world.✨ Learn how you can support Maria’s mission, advance medical innovation, and help turn hope into tangible solutions for patients worldwide. https://cccardio.ch/Learn more about GSR: Global Secure Resources and Global Secure Student https://www.globalsecurestudent.com/https://globalsecureresources.com/Medjet - http://www.medjet.com/globalsecureGlobal Rescue - https://partner.globalrescue.com/globalsecureresources/index.htmlMaria Alexandra Cetățoiu, ScM, is a final-year PhD candidate in Bioengineering at Politecnico di Milano, Italy.

    • Prepare for the Unexpected: Disabilities, Decisions & Planning Ahead

      Prepare for the Unexpected: Disabilities, Decisions & Planning Ahead
      Feb 7 2026
      Rare Disease Day - Raising awareness and generating change for the 300 million people worldwide living with a rare disease, their families, and carers.Welcome to the savvy safety sisters PARTNERS IN PREVENTION podcast I’m your host, Carrie Pasquarello With Global Secure Resources, today's guest is Dr. Erin Kyle, DNP, RN, CNOR, NEA BC. She’s a national leader in evidence-based perioperative practice and a passionate advocate for patient-centered care.Today, we will discuss Preparing for the Unexpected: Disabilities, Decisions & Planning Ahead. Preparedness is not about expecting the worst — it is about creating confidence, reducing stress, and ensuring your wishes and safety are respected during unexpected life changes.Tips:Start the Conversation Early. Difficult conversations are often the ones families avoid—but they are the most important. Talk openly about medical wishes, caregiving preferences, financial planning, and quality-of-life priorities. Planning ahead reduces stress and ensures decisions reflect personal values rather than rushed choices during a crisis. Put Legal and Medical Documents in Place. Essential documents provide clarity and authority during emergencies. Consider preparing: • Healthcare Proxy or Medical Power of Attorney • Living Will or Advance Directive • HIPAA Authorization Forms • Financial Power of Attorney. Having these documents ensures trusted individuals can advocate and act on your behalf if needed. Build a Personal Safety & Support Network. Unexpected health changes or disabilities often require teamwork. Identify trusted family members, friends, healthcare providers, and community resources who can step in if needed. Share key information with them so they are prepared to help quickly and confidently.Organize Critical Information in One Accessible Place. Create a secure and easy-to-access system that includes: • Medical history and medication lists • Insurance information • Emergency contacts • Password and account access plans • Care instructions or daily routines. When information is organized, families and caregivers can respond more quickly and effectively.Plan for Lifestyle, Travel, and Daily Living Changes. Unexpected disabilities can impact mobility, communication, independence, and travel plans. Consider accessibility needs, transportation options, home safety adjustments, and contingency plans. Thinking ahead allows individuals to maintain independence and confidence even during life changes.Resources: February 28th is Rare Disease Day, raising awareness and driving change for the 300 million people worldwide living with a rare disease and their families. https://www.rarediseaseday.org/Thnk CADASIL https://www.thinkcadasil.org/Learn more about Baylie's Story here https://www.baylieswish.org/https://w...Medical forms https://www.baylieswish.org/legal-formsGlobal Secure Resources and Global Secure Student https://www.globalsecurestudent.com/ https://globalsecureresources.com/Medjet - http://www.medjet.com/globalsecureGlobal Rescue - https://partner.globalrescue.com/glob...

    • CADASIL Awareness Day 2024

      CADASIL Awareness Day 2024
      Nov 12 2024
      CADASIL Awareness Day.
      In the most recent Savvy Safety Sisters PARTNERS IN PREVENTION podcast, I had the privilege of interviewing Angelique, a 25-year-old Project Coordinator from Pretoria, South Africa. Angelique shared her journey of living with CADASIL, a rare genetic stroke disorder that she and her two sisters were diagnosed with following their father’s diagnosis. Despite CADASIL's challenges, Angelique has achieved significant milestones, including graduating with distinction in Psychology and earning a teaching certification. Our conversation shed light on the impact of CADASIL on her daily life and future plans, the misconceptions surrounding the disease, and the invaluable support from loved ones and the medical community. Angelique's resilience, passion for the arts, and dedication to raising awareness about CADASIL were truly inspiring. We emphasize the importance of empathy and supportive care for those affected by CADASIL. Please share this podcast with friends and families. CADASIL is sometimes misdiagnosed with MS, ALS, and other diseases.
