Book Launch: The Art of Giving by Karlee Hayes

✨ Who cares for the carer?

Join Karlee Hayes in the intimate Gin Parlour at Miami Marketta for the launch of her debut memoir, The Art of Giving - a raw, funny, and deeply human story that lifts the curtain on life as a carer, and what happens when giving becomes a survival strategy.

At nineteen, Karlee’s world changed overnight when her boyfriend’s organs failed. With no training and no warning, she stepped into the role of full-time carer - navigating dialysis, hospitals, and expectations far beyond her years.

Years later, still giving to others as a professional disability support worker, Karlee found herself unraveling quietly beneath the surface.

Told with gritty honesty, cheeky humour, and the straight-talking voice of a Regional Victorian country girl who’s seen too much too young, The Art of Giving is a story of resilience, overgiving, and reclaiming balance.

It’s for anyone who’s ever cared too much - for everyone but themselves.

Come celebrate this powerful release with an evening of connection, storytelling, and laughter - and maybe a gentle reminder to fill your own cup. 💛
