Free Conference
The purpose of this program is to educate, inspire, connect, and celebrate all whose lives have been touched by cancer or any life-altering condition.
- Cancer or any life-altering illness can be viewed as both a curse and a blessing.
- If viewed simply as a disease of the body, it is experienced only as a curse.
- When we view cancer in the context of the whole person (body, mind, emotions and spirit), we see its transformative potential, as an awakening for the soul and spirit. Only then can we see it as a blessing and utilize its gifts.
Who Should Attend?
- Women and men touched by cancer or any life-altering illness.
- Healthcare providers.
- People supporting friends or family with cancer.
Conference Objectives
