From Diagnosis to Divine Detour: How Cancer Changed Everything for Anna Arvizu | 002
Manage episode 483641893 series 3617107
In this episode of Curveball, I sit down with Dr. Anne Arvizu – a powerhouse entrepreneur who knows firsthand what it’s like when life knocks you flat.
In 2021, Ann was diagnosed with endometrial cancer, and just like that, her world shifted. Suddenly, running her business took a backseat to fighting for her life – with six months out of work, unexpected medical expenses piling up, and no income in sight.
But Ann’s story isn’t just about survival – it’s about grit, resilience, and finding purpose in the midst of chaos. She talks about facing fear head-on, finding strength in unexpected places, and embracing the weird, wonderful synchronicities that pop up when life feels the most uncertain.
Tune in to hear how Ann transformed a devastating diagnosis into a story of fierce determination and hope – and how she’s using her experience to make a difference for others facing similar battles.
