Emilia Dauway is an extraordinary, beautiful human being, a leader in oncological surgery and yoga - a fascinating mix, born of her desire to help people, especially those affected by cancer.
Our conversation covered many topics including the Human Library experience with Living Books, and how everyone has a story worthy of listening to without judgement, appreciating your body, and taking time to really connect; with yourself and others.
And it's amazing to hear of long days of surgery with a team that feels like family, with energy, enthusiasm and passion for the work Emilia does.
Kerrie asked Emilia to share a mindfulness exercise from her book, Live Fearlessly, so we took a few moments to meditate with the help of a candle. This is also shared as a short bonus episode. Get your nearest candle out and join us to find a more restful, calm place within. This is where can step away from the noise and make clear, intuitive decisions, hearing the still small voice within.
