In our fast-paced world, it's easy to get swept up in the hustle, forgetting to take care of ourselves along the way. Lindsay Miller dives into the urgent need for consciously deciding not to wear ourselves thin. We talk about how society often fails to emphasize self-care, and the importance of intentionally cultivating habits that promote it. Mindfulness as not just a passing trend, but a lifestyle that promotes clarity, focus, and inner peace.
We also explore the concept of mindful awareness: the power of being present, observing our thoughts and feelings from a distance, and creating a daily practice of mindfulness. When we start understanding our emotions and how past experiences influence our present reactions, then we can see how that can be beneficial. Finally, we discuss how shifting from a fear-based mindset to one of curiosity can enhance resilience, offering you a fresh and empowering perspective on navigating life's ups and downs. Set sail with us on this enlightening journey, and discover the tools to create a more fulfilling, resilient, and mindful life.

Melanoma not only affects the individual diagnosed with this disease, but it also has a significant impact on their family and loved ones. In this heartfelt conversation, my guest, Dee Conway shares her story about her sister Rose and her diagnosis of melanoma that ended her life within just 6 months. The emotional toll of melanoma can be overwhelming. Today we discuss the importance of early detection, the dangers of tanning beds, and the need for more education about skin cancer. Dee’s story is a powerful reminder of the importance of protecting your skin and taking steps to prevent melanoma.
The loss of her sister at the young age of 35, inspired her to become an advocate for sun safety and melanoma awareness. Dee’s advocacy work through the Melanoma Research Foundation and in Washington DC for the state of Arizona shows her efforts have helped to educate others and to hopefully prevent them from experiencing these tragedies.
If you are interested in getting involved in melanoma advocacy and support, there are many ways to do so. You can start by educating yourself about the disease and the importance of sun safety. You can also donate to organizations that support melanoma research or volunteer your time to help raise awareness and funds. Whatever you choose to do, your efforts can make a difference in the fight against melanoma.

Melanoma and Skin Cancer Awareness Series - 8
We are setting the “Gold Standard” for skin health and advocating for sun safety in this must-listen episode. Get advice from 4-time melanoma survivor and Olympic Gold medalist Summer Sanders.
Growing up in California, learning to swim from an early age and eventually training for competition and the Olympics, gave Summer plenty of opportunities to be outside in the sun. Over time, this led to her hearing the words “you have malignant melanoma”. From that moment, Summer realized the deficit that exists when it comes to education and promoting sun protection and skin cancer awareness. She decided it was time to use her experience to bring the spotlight to sun safety and save lives.
Today, she shares her experience of her first diagnosis in 2014 to the present day and why she feels so strongly about sun protection and being an advocate.
Summer has accomplished so many amazing things in her life, winning not only two gold medals in the 1992 Olympics for swimming, but also being a TV and sports personality, a mom to 2 incredible children and also the wife of an Olympic skier.
I wanted to include her in this series because she has also faced melanoma four times and continues to thrive in her life. She shows her determination and resilience in this fight against a frightening diagnosis.
Together, let's educate ourselves and others on skin cancer and take action to advocate for our health. Don't miss this potentially life-saving episode.

Being diagnosed with cancer can be a challenging journey, but it doesn't have to define you. Listen to this fascinating story of one survivor's journey to excellence after a melanoma diagnosis. It will inspire you to keep moving forward and live your best life!
Cancer is a diagnosis that can shatter even the strongest among us.

Leah Adams is an avid runner, loves to travel and is a melanoma survivor! Ever since she was touched by cancer, she turned her life around for the better. Her experience led her to become a skin cancer and mental health advocate. She is also is the daughter of a Stage IV metastatic melanoma patient.
Her love for tanning started at a young age. Growing up in Ohio, she felt the pressure to maintain a tan all year round, leading her to use tanning beds frequently. However, she never thought about the risk of skin cancer. That all changed when she received devastating news at just 26 years old…
**Her story is one of hope and strength.
Today she will share with you her journey from diagnosis to advocate and from patient to caregiver.**
Leah hopes to continue to educate others and share her story to prevent others from going through what she did. She encourages everyone to prioritize sun safety and protect their skin from harmful UV rays.
Supporting those who have been affected by skin cancer, whether they are the patient or the caregiver, is vitally important. Let’s bring more education and awareness to preventing and treating skin cancer to make our world a safer and healthier place.

Are you exhausted from striving to be perfect? When you push to be perfect, you may put yourself under more stress by trying to control things and over time this can potentially lead to chronic illness.
Today we are exploring the impact of perfectionism. In this episode, you will get practical strategies to release stress and anxiety and find acceptance of yourself.
My guest, Vicki Smith is a licensed psychotherapist and coach that specializes in people pleasing and perfectionism.
Perfectionism can be a hard habit to break with the way we see everything in the world. We judge ourselves based on what we see around us when you need to be focused on who you are. Embracing our shared human experience can help reduce our shame, because it reminds you that your setbacks are not unique and that you are not alone in your pain.
Today Vicki brings her personal and professional experience and shares her thoughts on perfectionism and self-compassion. Through mindfulness she helps you discover your true nature and to share it with the world. To live the life you’ve always wanted!

When you’ve been diagnosed with cancer, sex is often the last thing on your mind. There are many different factors that may affect your sex life. Some of these factors include the type of cancer you have, what type of treatment you are receiving, how long you are going through treatment, and whether or not you have any side effects. You could be feeling so fatigued that you can’t even think about sex.
In this candid episode with my guest Juni Bucher, we're discussing this taboo subject and learn how to rediscover your sexual self as a cancer survivor.
Juni is a breast cancer survivor. Her first hand experience handling her new normal caused her to see things differently. Eventually it led her to completely change her life and career after her diagnosis.

Compassion is an attitude of empathy, caring, and understanding for ourselves and for others. It means recognizing when we’re struggling, offering kindness to ourselves and acknowledging those same struggles in other people. Compassion can transform the way we think about the world, giving us hope that even small actions can have a positive impact on our lives and the lives of others.

Navigating cancer can be difficult not only at the time of diagnosis, but also while processing the trauma. The grief and sadness can feel overwhelming. The isolation can keep you stuck. The emotions can get packed away.
My guest, David Richman, author, athlete and philanthropist, found himself in a life transformation at the same time his sister was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer. While she was in the last few weeks of her battle, he made a promise to her and decided to learn more by becoming more involved at a deeper level. The lack of emotion he witnessed in the world of cancer puzzled him. This led him to start a project. One that would change the lives of so many.
From this incredible adventure, he wrote his book “Cycle of Lives: 15 People’s Stories, 5,000 Miles, and a Journey Through the Emotional Chaos of Cancer”

Stress can be a normal part of life. What we must realize is that the effects of anxiety and stress seem obvious when we talk about our thoughts, but what about the harm to the body? When it becomes overwhelming, it can affect our physical wellbeing.

We all face challenges in our lives from time to time. If you don’t deal with them effectively they can continue to resurface.
So, what do you do when life doesn’t turn out the way you thought it would? My guest Deborah Fletcher and I will explore the power of resilience and joy.
You know that saying… “Life Happens”. Good or bad, it does. When life delivers those dark moments, how do we respond? Many of us stumble through and even push away from change, but it is in that change where we see the growth and discover a new path to peace.
Deborah received an invaluable message from her dad that got her through her challenges with her daughter's diagnosis with severe disabilities . She had the opportunity to choose how she would approach change, challenges, and grief associated with loss and disappointment.
She will inspire us to thrive and to find hope and acceptance of any situation. Build resilience into your life so that you can bounce back when things go wrong.

Do you find yourself living in the world of “WHAT IF”? What if something bad happens? What if I can't make a decision? Fear, worry, and other feelings can pull you into a dark place. If you are stuck in the past or projecting into the future, you rob yourself of the present.
Kara Goodwin joins me today to help us find calm seas in our sometimes crazy lives. She will be diving deep into meditation, what it is and how it works. Kara is a meditation and spiritual transformation coach, and has been practicing meditation for years to create calmness and joy in her own life.
I have been personally drawn to the practice of meditation. I have experienced the power and the benefits of being present. I really believe that mindfulness and meditation can help us in so many ways. After speaking with Kara I was so inspired.

How do you get through a cancer diagnosis? Wow! Big question. Obviously, you are here because of it.
My guest today discusses how he has navigated through his fight. Bill C. Potts is a five-time cancer survivor and author of his newly released book, “UP FOR THE FIGHT-How to Advocate for Yourself as you Battle Cancer from a Five-Time Survivor”. In his book, he dives into the answers he searched for when his cancer journey started and fills those voids. With empathy and honesty, Bill covers those heavy topics that are the hardest to discuss.
His experience with cancer has guided him on his mission to make a difference. To be that beacon of hope for others. To help that one person going through the hardest chapter of their lives - fighting cancer. He pursues life and all that comes with it with impressive passion and drive.
Bill has done an outstanding job putting his experience and thoughts together in his valuable guide for both cancer patients and those who support them

I didn’t ask for cancer, but it sure found me! It found me in an aggressive way 5 years ago. I watched my so-called normal life implode. This wasn’t my first big fight, but it was one of those final straw moments.
It was an abrupt stop in life as I knew it. Having the feeling that something is really wrong and then hearing “you have cancer” wreaks havoc in your world. It was like a black hole opened up and sucked me in. I’m not a dramatic person, but I can tell you it surpassed anything I had experienced before.
I started this show almost 2 years ago. It was 3 years after my first cancer diagnosis, after multiple surgeries, 2 years of cancer treatments and recently getting the all clear on a scan. The world was adjusting to this new realm of living in a world struggling to understand a pandemic.
I had to figure life out in a whole new way to live, to think and be. To find peace…

You have been given a second chance at life. Now what do you want to do with it?
We’ve all been told not to judge a book by its cover, but what if you could actually see inside the story? A good storyteller knows how to tell a story with emotion. They use words to make us feel something and find a way to connect with people through it.
My guest Kim Sorrelle is the author of two books. In her first book, “Cry Until You Laugh”, she shares her experience as she and her husband battle cancer after being diagnosed just four months apart. Her second book, "Love Is", chronicles her year-long quest to figure out the true meaning of love. She will let us into her world of discovery and she relives the moments in her life that lead her to this life changing and enlightening journey.
This episode will touch your heart if you are a cancer survivor or someone close to you has been through this fight. Find your new life through love and transformation with my guest today.

Not every moment of every day will be rainbows and sunshine. As much as we'd like it to be, the reality is it's not. We have the option to choose between feeling miserable or finding a way to make peace with the day and pull out the parts of it that actually are worth remembering or worth focusing on. That's when we get those little glimmers of hope and positivity. It all depends on your perspective.
In today's “bonus” wisdom episode, I'm going to reflect on a few of my past guests. These are the women who are in the world making a powerful impression on others to use their internal compass and find their peace, sit in stillness to feel joy, unravel all those emotional knots and seize the day to live an incredible life.
These four women focus on what we can do for ourselves to live that best life. To live the life we want.

Pushing through limitations. Her strength and courage have always been a guiding force for Emily.
Emily's mom passed away following a courageous 17 year battle. With that Emily also had a unique challenge presented to her.

She left a letter for her with one request - that Emily finish the story for her.

I want to welcome you, my dear friends, to the first Stay Anchored Meditation
We can all use a moment of peace in our days. Check in with yourself today and see how you are really feeling.
You know how important it is to live with less stress. There are many things that cause anxiety. Life in general can raise anxiety levels. Add in the memories of any challenging experiences, the emotions we feel, the fears we have before our appointments and scans or how to get our lives back on track.
Mindful breathing teaches you to focus on the breath while letting go of your negative thoughts and calming your mind. It allows you to stay anchored in the present moment and build resilience to anxiety and stress. It can make a big difference in your day.
There are so many benefits to mindful breathing. Reduce anxiety and stress, lessen negative thoughts and self talk, pain relief, and improved sleep, all just by breathing. Use this practice any time you feel like you need to take back control of your thoughts.
This is a valuable tool that can be readily available to use and will create a more gratitude filled life.
Enjoy this mini meditation to get you on your way to feeling more mindful and peaceful.

“Our greatest glory is not in Never Falling, but in Rising every time we fall.” Confucius
We all have moments in life where we feel weak whether it's our minds or our bodies that have failed us. We have to realize it's okay. We are human. It is part of life.
Getting knocked off course can take its toll on us. The mental side of losing your course can cause us to beat ourselves up, get sidetracked and eventually make it difficult for us to bounce back. Life can be frustrating because we think we're doing something right and then something happens and we figure out we are not.
So what do you do? How do you increase your resilience?

It has been one heck of a week since the last episode- hence the title Rough Passage. I ended up having an emergency surgery after a routine scan. I know! Not what I was expecting.
When we face a life challenge, it causes us to act, reflect and reevaluate. It is the small steps that move us back to life as we know it and to experience the growth we can achieve.
We all have the tools we need to get us through life. Sometimes we don't remember where we left our tools. Sometimes we forget the tools that we have. This past week has been discouraging to say the least, but I also know the value that has come out of it. I know that my story will help someone else understand that no one is immune to life's struggles…me included.

I am excited to have today’s guest on my show. Bronwyn Davis has found her niche as a coach, but not just any coach. She is coaching others with a twist- as a Sun Care Coach (TM)
I know you are thinking, what is that? Well Bronwyn will be telling us more about that as well as her history with her skin issues and how she was frightened by her pediatrician at the tender age of 12. Her focus on awareness now shines on skin cancer and skin related conditions. If you are struggling with confidence and unable to move past old behaviors and inner criticism, Bronwyn is here to teach you how to love yourself and skin once again by going into the depths to realize beauty isn’t just skin deep.

Think of all the times you’ve been out on a sunny day, only to find yourself hours later with a terrible sunburn. The painful, hot feeling of the burn and skin damage may have felt temporary. But what if it wasn’t? Did you know that More than 2 people die of skin cancer in the U.S. every hour and having 5 or more sunburns in your life doubles your risk for melanoma?
There are so many ways to stay sun safe, but when it comes to covering your body, the simplest way is with clothing and not just any clothing.
This leads me to my guest Christie Covarrubius. She is the CEO and co-founder of SUN50 apparel company. Sun50 is a female led sun protection clothing brand on a mission to disrupt the apparel industry and elevate skin cancer awareness. Sun50’s products are made in the USA. They are fashion forward, sustainable, and ethically made, designed and developed by a successful team with over 40+ years of combined experience in the sun protective clothing industry.

Change your life!
We all have had those moments in our life of feeling overwhelmed and stressed. Have you ever stopped to think where that feeling is coming from? What past event is at the core of those emotions?
Trauma can be stored in the body and will eventually show up in a number of ways. If you pay attention, you will start to notice this.
So, what do you do now?
My guest, Ann Hince, is here today to discuss her experience and what she did to help herself through those moments. Using EFT or Emotional Freedom Technique, she found there was a way to get through past trauma, to reverse the physical side effects of her deeply stored emotions and start living with a new perspective.
By seeking out her truth, she did a course correction and found her inner peace in life. We all have the incredible power to release the trauma from past memories and to venture into the subconscious mind to release tension stored in our body, simply using the power of awareness.

When we find ourselves plucked out of our reality with a sudden and tragic event, we have to make that one important decision - to sink or swim.
Today we learn the emotional and touching story of Ryan Rae Harbuck rising out of her vulnerabilities and finding her strengths.

From healing her injuries to accepting to live her new life in a wheelchair, she learned the lesson that anything is possible.

Her life in a wheelchair helped her understand her purpose in a whole new way. Her power of perception opened a new world to her, allowing her to live her life in an extraordinary way.

In this week's episode, and in honor of Valentine's Day,we discuss relationships and how to work through the turbulent times to avoid a catastrophe. To learn ways to find calm water and peace in your life.
Going through any significant health or life event challenges even the best of us. There are times we are pushed so far that something has to give. In the process of dealing with life, our relationships can be damaged, sometimes beyond repair. The weight can be enough that it causes our ship to sink from all the extra baggage.
So what do you do? How do you move forward once you find yourself in this situation?
Branch Isole, my guest today, gives us some direction to avoid the breakwall when it comes to our relationships. He is an author, poet and storyteller of many meaningful books dealing with the issues and emotions that we all go through but have difficulty addressing. He is a wealth of knowledge and shares his insight to the stumbling blocks of relationships and how to repair or retreat from those bonds.
We all have choices in life. Will your choices keep you stuck in the same loop of behavior and people in your life or open your eyes to the potential for growth and healing yourself? It’s up to you. The possibilities are endless.

The definition of hope is the expectation, feeling, and belief that the future will be full of desired, meaningful events and outcomes. Without hope, it is difficult to imagine how or why humans would persevere.
I know you will be truly moved today with my guest Caroline Rose. She has made it her mission to share her story of hope and to inspire us to continue to fight and reclaim our lives.
Caroline is a three-time stage 4 cancer thriver, speaker and total dog lover.
Her soul-searching and the struggles she was forced to face at the lowest point in her life revealed to her that we all deserve a second chance. It also was the moment that she realized that despair, and pain is where we find the treasures of life. She has been blessed by finding her angel, Riley. He was her guide through her most difficult times. Together, the strength of their bondtaught them that there really are some things in life that are worth the fight.
They found that hope is what floats us through the most demanding times.
In this episode with Caroline, you will learn
- The power of hope in our lives
- How she found her inspiration through her cancer fight
- What it means to trust life again
Caroline’s story is more than a cancer survivor story. It’s the story of love, loss, and the ultimate realization that the hope of true joy always outweighs the struggle. Your experiences in life teach you so many lessons. Some of us have bigger and harder lessons, but the message is the same. Hope will give us the strength to overcome difficulties and hardships. Sometimes, hope is the only thing that keeps us going, keeps our head above water.
Our resilience and determination to continue the fight will bring us some of the greatest moments in our lives. Through laughter and tears we can thrive. It is what we hold on to that gives us the strength to go on. Riley was there to show Caroline how. By having that companionship and connection with him, she experienced first hand the healing power of animals.
Caroline is involved with various cancer boards and volunteering with the local dog rescue. She remains passionate about spreading hope and giving back to those who are still searching for their hopeful ever after.

When we think of success, how often do we consider the actual journey that is traveled to that success? It can be a bumpy ride. We usually need to go through the worst of times only to shine so brightly on the other side.
We all have challenges in life. We've felt the hurt and sadness that have taken us to those dark places. Going there creates an opportunity to grow, to learn from those moments. When we learn and apply those lessons, we find our potential to succeed.
Imagine being a struggling high school student, losing your mom to a 20 year opioid battle and having your dad in jail. My guest, Justin Schenck, went through these very traumatic events, BUT he took his experience of hitting rock bottom to do something incredible, to grow and turn his life around. To forge ahead and become a successful entrepreneur, speaker and the host of the top rated podcast “Growth Now Movement”.

- Limiting beliefs and how to overcome them
- What it takes to find balance with the 4 pillars of life
- The power of we have within us
Justin’s powerful message has impacted millions of lives through his practice of gratitude and keeping balance in his life. This balance comes from focusing on the “4 Pillars of Life” and his method to overcome any limiting belief you might have.

What is the secret recipe for reversing chronic disease, looking and feeling better and most important creating sustainable health habits?
Eating healthy is exceptionally delicious with my guest and “healthy gal”, Lynne Bowman. She is wise and witty and has created a whole food, plant based and practical way of eating. This holistic approach is what has helped Lynne to overcome her own health issues.
Lynne was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes over 30 years ago. Through her understanding of the importance of food and modifying her lifestyle, she became living proof that you can cook, eat, sleep and walk your way out of type 2 diabetes, or at least the ill effects of it. In addition, the benefits extend to aging well and looking fantastic!
In her new book, “Brownies for Breakfast,” she takes us through her Healthy Galley and shares exactly how you can do it too. It is a wonderful feast for the eyes as well.
Would you ever think of eating brownies for breakfast? Probably not, but you may rethink that after hearing this episode.
In my conversation with Lynne, we are going to be talking about:
- Reversing chronic disease through lifestyle changes
- Healthy habits that you can really keep
- Her secret to aging well
Lynne’s colorful and charismatic personality pairs well with the food she eats. Perhaps that is another benefit to following her lead. She is full of energy and continues to be active in truly LIVING her life.
Her recipes are Low-carb, gluten-free, super nutritious recipes everybody in the family will like, and anybody can make. Just when you thought your favorites were out, Lynne redesigned them without all the bad stuff.
“When you allow yourself, mentally and physically, to eat high-quality food it changes your relationship with food. If you sit down to a table full of green and yellow and pink and red and orange and beautiful foods with beautiful fragrance and textures and you say to yourself “I’m gonna eat whatever I want and I get to eat whatever I want”. Suddenly now, not only is the food healthy, but your relationship without food becomes healthy. That’s huge!”
Her book “Brownies for Breakfast” is beautifully photographed and filled with easy to follow recipes to drool over.
You can find out more about Lynne on her website at LynneBowman.com
You can find her book Brownies for Breakfast: A Cookbook for Diabetics and the People Who Love Themon Amazon.

Relationships - We all have them. They exist in many forms in our lives.
We have relationships with people, finances, spirituality and most importantly - ourselves.
With energy and excitement, my guest Chris Plourde is joining me today to shed some light on how we can better our relationships. You might be surprised what it is!
By starting on the inside, you can unlock your true potential and find balance in your life. Finding your freedom comes from shifting your perspective. Becoming the best version of yourself is the journey.
Chris is a Conscious Performance Coach, Consultant, Speaker and Mind Body Instructor. Using physical, mental and emotional aspects of wellness & life, he teaches how to embrace yourself with love and clarity. Now is the time to live a life of peace and happiness!
In my conversation with Chris we will be covering:
- Courage and Fear- Reprogramming how we think
- Relationships and what they are here to teach you
What I learned today in my conversation with Chris is: In any relationship, it takes you being the best you to make it successful, your relationship with yourself and bringing your best self forward is the most important. Until we get ourselves on the right path, we will struggle. Fear can be a big stumbling block for us on our journey and can create a barrier to moving through situations in our lives. Flipping that fear into courage will empower us to make those moves to understand ourselves better. Once you can conquer that, you can thrive in all aspects of your life. Taking care of you doesn’t mean being selfish, it means you are able to present your best to the world.
We are reprogramming our thinking for healthy relationships.

At the end of your life, what will you be remembered by? Do you know your story? Take a second and check in with yourself. If the answer is no, well, you are in the right spot. Dieter is a third-generation minister, a coach, and a teacher as well as the author of “MeaningFullFilled”. His mission is to help you find a life that you love, one that truly feeds you.

The Southern Cross is a constellation most clearly seen from the Southern Hemisphere with the four brightest stars forming a cross. Sailors know it well and have used the Southern Cross to help navigate their boats since the 15th century.
Remember, there is something you have that no one else has. You don’t need anything extra to be who you already are. Be the hero of your story. Follow your southern cross. It is already in your heart and it is ready to guide you. Isn’t it wonderful to know we’re all in this together.

From the beginning of her life, Penelope Joye was exposed to the sun and went through her childhood as many of us did with long days at the beach or pool with little or no protection. She paid the price. The result was a melanoma diagnosis, not once, but twice. The seriousness of this compelled her to examine her life and find a solution to preventing future concerns with premature aging, sun damage and skin cancer.
Penelope has had her scare with skin cancer, but it is what she did because of it that she shares with us today. Growing up in Australia then moving on to her well travelled life, she gained the experiences that would give her an idea...one that would become a passion for her. She found a creative solution for protection against the sun’s harmful rays.
Her solution is easy to use, practical and best of all so very beautiful. It is the whole nine yards!
In today’s episode is “The Whole Nine Yards”. with Penelope , we will be learning about:
- How she found her passion after going through her challenges
- Creating her beautiful solution to sun protection and skin care
What a creative, resourceful and beautiful guest. I just loved how she took a need and turned it into something she is so passionate about. What a vast life change from learning the business operations in her mother's restaurant to investment banker to umbrella guru. It goes to show how all of our life experiences lead us to where we need to be.
We also are reminded that we need to take care of ourselves and be proactive with protecting ourselves from sun damage. I always like to take time to point out the seriousness of skin cancer, melanoma even more so. Do what you can daily AND in all seasons with sunscreen, clothing, and accessories to prevent putting yourself in a potentially deadly situation.

This is a heartfelt and touching conversation about the reality of life.
We will all go through grief and loss at some point. Life is precious. Let’s make the most of the time we have together. Even if it means having the hard conversations.
The importance of end-of-life communication hit home when Lynn Sherwood's 25 year-old daughter, Lauren, was diagnosed with Small Cell Lung Cancer. In the five months they shared between diagnosis and death, this mom and daughter navigated the waters of legal and health care decisions, interpersonal relationships, and communicating personal preferences which would bring comfort, joy and peace…
This candid and emotional conversation with Lynn will cover:
- Why communication about death and dying is important to her
- The importance of talking about death before it happens
- How planning ahead can create a “happier ending” for you and your family
She encourages us to think about dying as a natural part of life - designing our dying to achieve a potentially “happier ending!”
The reality is that anyone could perrish without this wake-up call and at any time. Trying to make decisions while grieving the loss of a loved one is a difficult subject, yet it is one that everyone will deal with eventually. This is a difficult subject and I hope you can look at it in a different light now.
Lynn is a former nurse, "companionship-centered" caregiver, serial entrepreneur, author of “Lung Cancer 101” and “My Croak File,” and TEDx Speaker.

Steven Crane spent the year 2020 "marinating his brain" as he says, in the spirit of gratitude and appreciation... and lots of writing after his teenage son's challenge to examine why his response to so many situations was negative.
While the world was on lock-down and going through a pandemic, he discovered something life-changing. He found there were hidden blessings all over the place in things he previously viewed as negatives. He learned it's possible to rewire that negativity, and live more mindfully in a spirit of true appreciation.
From questioning faith after losing loved ones to cancer, or his own significant health challenges to the more everyday challenges like careers, parenting, relationships, Steven realized it was time to take a hard look at his life.
You can learn more about Steven on Instagram and Facebook. His book “I Can Appreciate That!” is available on Amazon.

As of this day - this NEW DAY - October 8, 2020 I am CANCER FREE.
My mom referenced this turning point as my New Day. A New Day to start fresh. I think of all that has happened this year and finally something wonderful!
In this episode I talk about my journey and how I got to this point. What lead me to start this podcast? Listen and see!
So, as you know I'm a sailor my dream is to sail and discover new places, live the adventure and find peace. I am a work in progress and I'm working toward my goal. Even if your dream has nothing to do with sailing, hopefully you will get something out of this podcast.
My guests will be sharing their stories of what they've been through. How they stay happy. How they adjust when things aren't going the way they thought they should. The biggest point is how do you live your dreams when you get handed this terrible disease or other life event that takes you down. I have many amazing people ready to share their stories of how they made it through and continue to find happiness. It will be informative, reassuring and give you hope.
If you or someone you know would like to share their experience or know of an organization to help even just one person, please message me on Instagram at Sailing Through Life Podcast or leave a message on Anchor.
I would love to grow this caring support community!
* I’d like to thank my husband for his patience and being by my side through everything and my family for supporting me through my journey and on this new adventure. *
