It doesn't matter how much we fight it; we have no control over what happens to or around us. What we can control, however, is our experience of it. We have the power to decide how we navigate what is happening around us; we can choose to grab the reins and take control.
Visiting us today is the inspiring Kayla Michael; she is a writer, a former military member, and a mother. Kayla's resilience is out of the charts; she endured paralysis, homelessness, memory loss, and she is currently fighting against a massive brain tumor in her brainstem. After one of the many surgeries she went through, Kayla woke up paralyzed, so she had to relearn to walk, which she did. Doing lots of meditation and positive affirmations, she keeps pushing forward, grabbing life by the lapels, and focusing on her only job: getting better.
When she was born, Kayla's parents were teenagers; her mother decided to leave, so she was raised by her father, a 20 years old boy who did a great job and created an unbreakable bond with her.
Our conversation revolves around Kayla's bulletproof optimism, strength, and resilience. We talk about some of the countless resources she uses to stay strong and keep fighting and how she deals with her mother's absence. We talk about the relationship with her kids and grandparents, Kayla's future goals and projects, the meaning of grief, and much more.
Tune in and listen to episode 21 of Growing Through Grief and receive some of Kayla's endless strength and courage through her story.
