This episode launches Season 10 of Love Conquers Alz 🎙️! And fittingly, we’re celebrating the 10th anniversary of Alz Authors , the global community changing the dementia narrative one book at a time. My co-host, Don Priess and I sit down with Marianne Sciucco and Christy Byrne Yates to reflect on a decade of impact — from books to podcasts to their brand-new film festival. What began as a one-month blog has grown into a worldwide network of 400+ storytellers sharing authentic experiences of Alzheimer’s and dementia. Together we explore: How one story can change a life, and how hundreds can change a culture. Why storytelling across genres — memoir, fiction, children’s books, podcasts, and film — matters. The importance of curating authentic voices and supporting new authors. Practical encouragement for anyone ready to share their journey. This milestone episode is a joyful reminder that storytelling is activism — and that love, creativity, and community truly Conquer Alz! Marianne Sciucco (RN, author of Blue Hydrangeas ) and Christy Byrne Yates (MS, psychologist and author of Building a Legacy of Love ) co-host the AlzAuthors Podcast and bring lived caregiving wisdom to a global community of 400+ storytellers. AlzAuthors curates books, podcasts, and now films that transform the way we understand Alzheimer’s and dementia. 🎙️ Guest & Organization Contacts Marianne Sciucco — Co-founder, AlzAuthors; author of Blue Hydrangeas 🌐 mariannesciucco.com 📱 Instagram : @mariannesciucco 📘 Facebook : Marianne Sciucco Christy Byrne Yates, MS — Licensed Educational Psychologist; author of Building a Legacy of Love 🌐 christyyates.com 📱 Instagram : @christybyates 📘 Facebook : Christy Byrne Yates AlzAuthors — Global community of Alzheimer’s & dementia storytellers 🌐 alzauthors.com ✉️
