From Pain to Purpose: Finding Joy Amidst a Cancer Diagnosis & Becoming Your Own Advocate with Kali Moynihan

from The FWD Think Tank · host Jamie Mazza

When you receive a cancer diagnosis, it is truly one of the most life altering things that can happen to a person. It rocks your world, leaves you confused and if you're fortunate enough- allows you to reflect on life as you knew it and make some major changes so that YOU can create a life that supports your health. When I first got diagnosed with a thymoma, I was SO BLESSED to find Kali Moynihan through Instagram, simply by searching "#thymoma" - she had documented her healing journey from not one, but TWO surgeries to remove her thymoma and a reccurence after having her son. Kali is an absolute LIGHT in my life. Not only was she willing to connect with me and share resources, but since that time we've developed a friendship that not many others would understand. I am eternally grateful for her, and for her wisdom and courage to share her story. Kali takes us through her journey from her original diagnosis at the height of the pandemic, going alone into the hospital and her first surgery, and finding the right support and resources on the other side of her surgeries to help her body TRULY heal. She discusses the importance of advocating for yourself, finding functional medicine doctors that helped her get to the root cause of mystery illnesses and pain that she experienced for YEARS without resolution, and how things like mold exposure, inflammation and chronic pain may have contributed to her cancer diagnosis. She also discusses how she made radical changes to not just her diet, but her mindset, healed her nervous system, and changed her perspective on these lifestyle changes to make them FUN and part of her everyday life. Kali is an example of radical healing, and I am so blessed to call her a friend and have her share her story here with you!You can find Kali on Instagram @healwithcancerI love you Kali! Thank you for your friendship and for sharing your story, I know this will make an impact on so many and inspire others to go inwards and support their health no matter where they are at in their journey. -----RESOURCES:Visited woolly.clothing and use code "JAMIEM15" to get 15% off your first order of Merino Wool, non-toxic atheisureBook your FREE 30 minute consult with my Naturopathic Oncologist, Dr. Lori Bouchard: https://l.bttr.to/41o7P
