Registration is encouraged but not required. We would appreciate you letting us know if you're coming and how many kids/adults are in your group, so we can plan how many snacks/giveaways to have on hand.

Show Yourself Some Love is a community-wide event open to any and every woman in Central Texas. The RightCare Baby Shower is for RightCare members and a guest (separate registration required).

Women tend to put themselves last on their list of priorities — and that includes taking charge of their own health and wellbeing. But what happens if you get sidelined by a medical issue? Who will take care of everyone and everything then?

At this event, you will learn ways to Show Yourself Some Love so you can live a healthier, happier life. It's all part of our commitment to empower you to live well.

If at all possible, yes. However, we understand that you have other commitments and may need to arrive late/leave early. Just know that you'll get the most out of the event if you're able to attend all the presentations.
