Description

Angela is joined by Dr Jill Carnahan, a medical and functional medicine doctor, and author of new book ;'Unexpected: Finding Resilience Through Functional Medicine, Science And Faith'.

Dr Carnahan discusses her incredible story of overcoming breast cancer at the age of just 25, the importance of detoxification in today's modern world, and why loving yourself is the key to developing greater resilience.

Key Takeaways

If we want to instil the next great generation of healers, then we must start by teaching them to respect their own basic needs of self-care and self-love.
Taking care of ourselves on a daily basis should be a top priority. When we nurture and protect ourselves, that's where healing starts.
Our souls are born with purposes and aims, and we don't always know what they are until we've experienced some kind of suffering or challenge.
If we re-frame challenge as an opportunity for growth, and take the tools we gain along the way, then we can create a deep abiding sense of hope and joy, despite what might be going on outside of us.

Best Moments

'How do you train a compassionate physician when you are teaching them to deny their basic needs?'

'In one instant I was changed from doctor to patient'

'What does she need from me today?'

'If you can change your lens, then all of a sudden you can have this deep abiding sense of hope'
