Do you ever feel alone? Lonely? Disconnected from the rest of the world? Does it get you down? It’s the human condition. And how we decide to handle it may just determine how we experience our journey in terms of our own mental health and even spirituality. For this podcast, I invited two people who have had profound experiences that you would think would lead to incredible isolation. Each person has a totally different perspective on their experience. Lise DeGuire shares her journey of surviving severe burns at the age of four. Her sunny disposition and determination to make friends helped her navigate these difficult times. Cherie’s story is equally compelling. A survivor of Hodgkin’s lymphoma, sudden cardiac arrest, and a heart transplant, she spent over a decade isolated and bedridden. Cherie speaks candidly about the different types of isolation she experienced—from the void she felt during cancer treatment, to the inability to communicate while on life support, to the prolonged isolation of her recovery. Through it all, she learned the importance of self-compassion and developing a deep relationship with her body. I also share some of my own bumps in the road that led to experiences of isolation, including a difficult divorce and a battle with cancer. My journey highlights how isolation can sometimes lead to profound self-discovery and spiritual growth. Three women. Three different stories. Perhaps one of the most important take aways is the importance of living from the inside out, how it fosters compassion and greater connection. Tune in to hear these inspiring stories and gain valuable insights into our common journey. You won’t want to miss this enlightening and heartfelt conversation.
