Inspiring & Motivating Through Adversity

Although challenges are inevitable, it is our response that defines the outcome. In the face of adversity, what is our response? Are we ready to embrace the challenges that life brings and emerge from them even stronger?
My story is one of perseverance and overcoming seemingly insurmountable challenges. At the age of 21, I was diagnosed with stage 4 terminal cancer. Over the course of the next five and a half years, I will have faced countless procedures, surgeries, and upsetting news.

Somehow, despite the odds being stacked against me, I have not only survived but thrived. I have traveled the globe and defied medical expectations. Remarkably, after my diagnosis, I have experienced not one but two life-changing events. On February 11, 2018, I received the devastating news that I had mere weeks to live. However, here I am, mere months later, alive and thriving.

It was through a combination of determination, faith, and maintaining a positive attitude that I was able to reach this point. Now, it is my goal to convey this message of hope and empowerment to others, urging them to walk on water like Jesus and overcome whatever challenges they may face. With the right mindset and determination, anything is possible.

As a dedicated motivational speaker and grief counselor, my goal is to inspire and motivate others. I believe that through my example and the life I live, I can show others that, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable challenges, there is an opportunity for growth and triumph. I encourage others to embrace the challenges that life throws at them, learning from them and becoming wiser in the process, with the eventual outcome being a more fulfilling and richer life.
