Discover the most important LESSONS my Son’s fight with CANCER TAUGHT ME…
In this video, I share a deeply personal true story that shaped the way I approach my family’s health and wellness in my daily life. It’s a journey that began with unimaginable loss that left me dealing with a lifelong tendency for depression. I was lucky to discover my antidote in the years that followed: Movement.
My Dad’s passion for athletics was not optional for me as a kid, but I was grateful later on that my exercise habit helped me cope when my firstborn Son, Ben, received a cancer diagnosis when he was just one year old.
As I sat for 40 days and 40 nights in a hospital room with my son, I began my journey to research everything I could do for him as he was facing cancer. That exploration transformed my understanding of health, and I discovered the benefits of lifestyle medicine that I have incorporated into our lives from that day forward.
From that time forward, I have been incorporating the principles of wholefood nutrition, regular movement and mindset mastery to heal and thrive. If you’re navigating difficult times, chronic illness, or simply looking for inspiration to take charge of your health in midlife and beyond, this video is for you. Discover the most important lessons our cancer story taught me.
