VITALS & VISION: FEBRUARY 2026
Join us for Life After the Wake-Up Call, a real conversation about heart health, healing, and resetting your life after survival.
This conversation focuses on prevention and what happens after survival — when people are most open to making meaningful, long-term changes.
February is Heart Health Month — but what happens after the scare, the diagnosis, or the hospital stay?
Vitals & Vision: Life After the Wake-Up Call is an honest, empowering conversation about heart health, healing, and the life reset that often follows illness. This discussion goes beyond the medical charts to explore how heart health impacts our mindset, relationships, purpose, and daily choices — especially for Black men and communities disproportionately affected by heart disease.
Panelists:
Dr. Matthew Jones - Interventional Cardiologist
Clive Williams, PhD, BH(M) - Life Coach
Moderated by Christopher Williams - Founder & CEO of Heart, Body & Soul
Together with health professionals, advocates, and individuals with lived experience, we’ll unpack:
Why heart disease remains the leading cause of death — and what we can do about it
How illness can become a turning point instead of a breaking point
Practical steps to protect your heart and reset your life
The emotional, mental, and spiritual shifts that come after survival
This isn’t just a health talk — it’s a space for reflection, real talk, and forward movement.
Your heart got your attention. Now what?
Who should attend:
Men and women of all ages invested in their health
Caregivers and family members
Community leaders and advocates
Anyone ready to be informed, empowered, and proactive
