When things fall apart, when we lose our sense of security, when we can't find our way, nothing feels okay. Leah knows this first hand as she lives with a terminal illness. In this episode, she shares how she reconnects to knowing that Everything Will Be Okay.

Everything is Going to Be Okay

Life. Playing by the rules, doing the right thing, working hard and striving to be a good person can give us a sense of control and security. At least that is what Leah believed until she was diagnosed with advanced ovarian and breast cancer when she was 46 years old. She quickly realized that life is truly precarious - filled with uncertainty and dependent on chance. Through hearing other's stories of their precarious moments, we realize that this is actually what connects us as human beings. There is beauty in the struggle.<br /><br />Leah Barrett, MS, LCSW is a psychotherapist in private practice in Colorado where she lives with her husband and a few fur kids.
