After emerging from what I believe was my earth school "boot camp" training in order to be equipped with humility and authenticity as a teacher in this world...my instructors being advanced cancer and divorce at the same time, every day I wake up is a gift worth celebrating. I believe that stress is simply a signal within our body giving us the opportunity to identify and adjust our perception of perceived lions, tigers and bears in life. Anxiety occurs inside our earth suit when we give more power to our circumstance than we do to our God given ability to handle any situation that unfolds before us. God never leaves me empty handed when it comes to great material to practice what I feel called to teach in this world ; ) Back in 2006, in less than a two year period of time I went through a divorce; a double mastectomy; 16 chemotherapy treatments along with an additional year tacked on; 6 weeks of daily radiation; 12 surgeries due to third degree burns on my chest they had to graft my back onto my front so now I really don't know if I'm coming or going most days; a MRSA staph infection, with three young children looking to me for support and encouragement. I say all of this without a hint of victimization. My company is Grab & Go Stress Solutions, I remember looking at myself bald and breast-less with tubes hanging out of my sides saying to myself: "Wow you are getting your PhD in suffering, which will equip you with the ability to reach the masses." The greatest teaches walk through the archway of humility and vulnerability...teaching from the trenches of life, in my opinion, creates instant connection and learning opportunities. I am grateful to be on this side of the storm and have the opportunity to remind people of that "something" inside them that is superior to circumstance.
