Author Bio:
I faced a life-altering diagnosis of HER2+ stage III breast cancer at the age of 43. Throughout my 18-month treatment—chemotherapy, mastectomy, radiation, and reconstruction—I realized the power of perception and sought complementary therapies to enhance my well-being. Embracing cancer as a transformative experience, I cultivated gratitude in profound life lessons. I discovered a gap in the oncology community's support for holistic healing, so, fueled by my passion to help others facing similar challenges, I now strive to share my journey and the efficacy of complementary therapies, especially with physicians and caregivers. Through my resilience and commitment I hope to inspire change in mainstream oncology care. By advocating for the integration of holistic approaches, I aim to empower countless individuals facing similar challenges, fostering a new path to healing and recovery. Now with the release of my memoir: Cancer & Other Things I’m Grateful For, I am sharing my personal journey with people around the world in the hopes of inspiring them when dealing with health challenges for themselves or loved ones.
