Stories that Empower

Rebecca experienced cancer diagnosis through the eyes of a daughter. She knew she could either focus on what isn't (allow fear to creep in) or focus on what is (enjoy each day). Rebecca chose the latter. She shares these powerful nuggets of life wisdom:
- appreciate every moment
- encourage perseverance
- focus on mind, body, spirit connection
- our minds have the power to heal our bodies
- how you experience life depends on how you see life
- there's so much joy when we focus on what is there
- every cancer experience is unique
- be open
- love through the fear
- engage instead of withdraw
- serve who we are
