In my journey of working with people to heal and become the best versions of themselves, I have worked on getting clients to understand the importance of SELF-CARE. Seven years ago I was diagnosed with a blood cancer and began the fight for my life. I am so happy to be here today to do the job I believe I was put on the earth to do. In my journey to practice what I preach I have been keeping up with medical appointments, dental appointments, advocating for myself to have issues explored, explained, and tested. This has led to finding skin cancer and surgical tx to remove it. I was cancer free again and on a new schedule of 6 month skin checks. Today, following a recent skin check, I just learned that 2 spots, one on my face and one on my shoulder are in fact skin cancer. This news brought with it a surge of different emotions, sadness due to having another cancer, anger at having another cancer to deal with, and happiness that I have been intentional about caring for myself and my body! If I had ignored the skin checks this cancer would have been gone undetected. My words to my clients and anyone that is reading this, please love yourself, your body, and understand self-care is about whole body care. Be intentional and make time for self-care, it can save your life.
