Before I was diagnosed with breast cancer, I was trying to make a career shift into wellness because I LOVE nerding out on nutrition and wellness. I created and organized detoxes and health challenges, I assisted clients with dietary changes and how to feel to good from the inside out but found myself completely stressed about how to create a new career with all this knowledge and I didn't want to teach others how to diet. I hate the word diet! But what else was I going to do?

A voice in my head kept telling me, "You are going to go through something that will help you define your purpose in wellness."

Then I was diagnosed with Cancer, I realized: this is it.

Cancer is one of the number one killers in the US, but does it really have to be?

Can we pay attention to the reasons why it showed up?

I refused to see my diagnosis as a death sentence, instead - Cancer became my teacher.

My cancer journey has been so life changing that I wanted to share it with anyone diagnosed with any life threatening illness.

We forget that we are the boss of our bodies and we CAN choose whatever way we wish to heal.

I'm not here to say that my way of healing cancer is the right way. What works for me may not work for you.

But, I am a true testament on how to successfully thive and enjoy life through Cancer treatments, and I witnessed how others on similar journeys were able to do the same.

Just remember, you are a living, breathing human being.

You still have life left in you.

Be relentless and persistent.

Advocate for yourself.

Find the joy in learning.

Never back down.

This book is my personal guide to joyfully living through cancer treatments, approaching my life with a fresh new perspective, and finishing stronger and more beautifully than when I began.

I hope you'll find NOT TODAY CANCER useful in doing the same for you!
