Life's Curveballs: How to Keep a Positive Mindset When Everything Goes Wrong
In this episode, I’m sharing my story of surviving:
✅ 4 cancer diagnoses (including breast cancer at 48 that led to double mastectomy & reconstruction)
✅ A terrifying brain aneurysm that required open brain surgery (a craniotomy)
✅ Multiple strokes caused by cancer medication
✅ Panic attacks, rapid heart episodes, countless ER visits, and the emotional rollercoaster of living through it all
This isn’t just about my suffering. This is about resilience, mindset, faith, advocating for yourself, and building a support system to get through life’s hardest moments.
You’ll hear:
✨ Why trusting your gut & seeking second opinions can save your life (and how I found the world’s top aneurysm specialist after being told I might die on the table)
✨ How mindset, humor, joy, and a strong “village” carried me through surgeries, recoveries, and constant health scares
✨ Tips you can use if you’re facing your own curve balls—whether it’s health, loss, or any life shock
Because life WILL throw you curve balls. The key is learning how to catch them (or sometimes, just survive them) with courage and grace.
📝 Key Takeaways:
- Be your own advocate. Don’t stop until you find the right doctor for YOUR specific case.
- Build a support system—your “village”—and lean on them.
- Protect your mindset. Positivity doesn’t mean denial; it means holding on to hope.
- Allow yourself joy & laughter, even during the darkest times.
- Control what you can, and release what you can’t.
Thank you for tuning in! I truly appreciate every one of you, whether you’re here for the first time or have been with me from the start.
