Cancer gave me the gift of a new beginning.
My journey to health and wellness began twenty-two years ago when I was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer. At the time, I had a two-year old son, was trying to manage my sales career, and felt completely stressed and out of balance.
After having a total hysterectomy, bowel surgery and three rounds of chemotherapy, I made the decision to change my life and my health. With my husband’s support, I quit my job to stay home with my son; we were blessed to adopt a second son less than a year later.
Sometimes learning that you’re cancer-free can be as overwhelming as finding out you have cancer in the first place.
After getting a clean bill of health from my oncologist, I knew that I should have felt relieved. But instead, a feeling of apprehension came over me as I wondered what I could do to avoid recurrence: Were there certain foods I should eat? Lifestyle changes I could make? Someone I could talk to about the grief I felt over no longer being able to bear children?
As I left the hospital I began to ask the oncologist those very questions. He really had no answers for me. He basically said, “Go back to living your normal life. You’re going to be fine.”
So, I made the decision to take my health into my own hands.
I made self-care a priority, focused on eating nutritious foods that help the body thrive, and found stress management techniques that worked for me. Within a few months I gained back my energy and felt this unexplained sense of renewal.
After reflecting on my journey, I knew that I survived cancer for a reason—to teach other’s how to become confident in their ability to remain cancer-free and live better than ever!
I later enrolled at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition’s cutting edge Health Coach Training Program, where I was trained in a wide variety of dietary theories, practical lifestyle management techniques and innovative coaching methods with some of the world’s top health and wellness experts.
It became my mission to help others who have been touched by cancer, get their life back-with more purpose, peace, passion and vibrant health.
And each time I see my clients’ lives and health improve for the better, I know that I’m doing exactly what I was meant to do.
