Kathleen O’Keefe-Kanavos is a two- time breast cancer survivor who penned SURVIVING CANCERLAND. Kathleen says “There is almost always a point in the process of illness where logic, reason, and medical expertise fails. It’s at this point a patient slips through the cracks, sometimes never recovering. I survived cancer—twice…I survived by using something many in the medical field do not even acknowledge as being real. My innate intuition. You have it too. Learn to listen to it. It may save your life one day.” SURVIVING CANCERLAND: The Psychic Aspects of Healing is her account of how she used her intuition to self-advocate a course of treatment, often against the vehement advice of her doctors, in her healing process. Kathy was born to a military family, raised in Europe, graduated from Munich American High School and Keene Teacher’s College, taught Special Education and Psychology at University of South Florida. Since undertaking and winning her own personal battle with cancer Kathleen has dedicated her life to sharing how a deeper understanding of our inner strengths and an ongoing conversation with our inner voice can not only change our life but often times save it. She is currently represented by Scovil, Galen & Ghosh Literary Agency & Steve Allen Media. She’s a phone counselor for R.A. BLOCH Cancer Foundation, Q&A cancer columnist for CapeWomenOnlineMagazine, an inspirational speaker, mentor, cancer volunteer, and Cambridge Who’s Who Executive Professional of the Year 2009-2010.
