Ep. 100: Surviving A Terminal Diagnosis

Guest: Kathy McLaughlin, author

Kathy McLaughlin was one or two heartbeats on this side of death – and survived.

Her journey is harrowing, it’s gut wrenching, and it stretches your imagination to the brink, leaving you wondering if you could have survived.

What did she learn along the way and how did it change her? Did it change her philosophy, her routine, her priorities? Kathy says the biggest lesson and hardest challenge is "being in the moment. How do you choose to act at this particular moment in time to be fully present to whatever presents itself? And for me, I was never about that. And I still struggle with it, and then I think, 'Okay, that's not why I'm here, that’s not why I survived.'"
