Send to a friend to boost their energy, help them find their proud moment, and stop living on autopilot.

I share a little story about how I have felt proud of all that I have personally experienced in life the past few years: overcoming survivor guilt after chemotherapy, accepting life, and looking at every experience as a blessing.
