In this episode, we talk to Jessica Johnston, a Wheeling native,  40 year old wife, mother, spa industry expert, wellness coach, entrepreneur, and lymphoma survivor, on how she tackled lymphoma with a lot of support from family, a positive mindset, and the mantra faith over fear.  She takes us through her journey leading up to her diagnosis (which is a lesson on being your own advocate and knowing your body) and how she continues to grow herself by focusing on a healthy mind and body.  She also describes how she controlled the narrative during her diagnosis and removed the word cancer from her vocabulary.  Jessica focuses now on helping women regain control of their life by creating a healthy lifestyle. This is a must listen with great pieces of information that will help us all.

What if we turned the problems that continue to show up for us into spiritual assignments? Spiritual assignments help you look at problems as an opportunity to heal-it redefines them.  When the same type of problem, person, or situation keeps appearing in your life, it's one of your spiritual assignments reminding you there's something that needs to be healed. In this episode, we go over Gabby Bernstein's 7 step process that helps you show up for your spiritual assignments, to heal and to care for yourself in a different way.  Let us know what you think!
