Episode 82: Amanda McCordic
In December of 2019 Amanda was diagnosed with aggressive breast cancer and by April of 2020, the cancer was deemed terminal. The isolation of the COVID pandemic provided the isolation that allowed her to focus on self-care and healing, rather than dying. Amanda had her very first Reiki session 12 hours after finding her first cancer tumor. Her cancer journey kick-started her spiritual journey and she leaned heavily into Reiki to help her heal all parts of her body, mind, and soul. Defying her oncologist's expectations or understandings, she was able to totally heal her cancer metastases, and her scans have remained clean since November 2020.
While Amanda was battling cancer, her husband Matt was losing his mental health battle and in March of 2020 he committed suicide in the family home. Amanda's incredible story, including the spiritual tools that she used to learn self-love and forgiveness will stay with you for a long time to come.
