In this episode of The Visibly Fit Podcast, we’re diving into Broken Heart Syndrome. It is a real, medically recognized condition that mirrors a heart attack and can lead to heart failure, AFib, or even cardiac arrest. With 36% of patients developing heart complications, this topic deserves our attention.

My guest, Joan Hunter, knows this journey firsthand. She’s a healing minister, author, and daughter of Charles and Frances Hunter, aka “The Happy Hunters.” Joan shares her incredible story of facing devastating emotional trauma, a cancer diagnosis, and broken heart syndrome, and how God completely healed her body and restored her heart.

You’ll hear:

• What broken heart syndrome really is and why it matters
• How emotional trauma affects physical health
• The link between forgiveness, laughter, and healing
• Why your words have the power to bring life or destruction

Joan’s story will encourage anyone who’s ever faced deep pain, betrayal, or loss. It’s living proof that healing is possible physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

✨ Tune in for this short but powerful conversation and discover how to begin your own journey toward wholeness.
