#29 Meditation Healed Bone Cancer with Crystal Carothers
What would you do if surgery was your only option — and surgery meant losing everything that made you, you?
Crystal Carothers was 35, active, surfing in San Diego, when a rare bone cancer at the base of her spine left her bedridden and facing an amputation that would change her life forever. She said no. We go deep into what happened when she stopped trying to control her healing — and started listening to something quieter.
If you're in a season where every door seems to be closing, this one is for you.
