There are over 4.7 million people in California caring for a relative or close friend, and many of them are COVID 19 patients. The media is filled with the stories of COVID 19 patients and healthcare workers, but what about the people who are dedicating themselves to taking care of a loved one? Scott and I couldn’t find many of those stories, so we asked AJ to come over and share hers with us.

AJ Johnson is an LA native and mom of two beautiful girls. She’s been a wealth manager for over 28 years. AJ is a world traveler, an avid NFL and UFC fan who loves snow skiing and is engaged to Gregg Garfield, who was a guest on The Only One In The Room not once but twice for our COVID Warrior’s series, once to talk about what it was like to be the first patient with COVID 19 at St. Joseph’s hospital and then we got to follow up with Gregg in late 2020. Be sure to check out both of those episodes.
