In this moving and inspiring episode, I chat to a wise, gentle mid-lifer called Karen Villet. Karen is a cancer survivor, mother and (since we recorded this conversation) now a functional medicine health coach.

You'll hear about:

  • The importance of releasing self-criticism to make space for self-compassion and growth.
  • The difference between surviving and thriving.
  • Chronic disease as a teacher (and then inviting it to leave).
  • Why health information (and even a life-threatening illness) isn’t always enough to help us stick to healthy habits

Please note: this conversation is in NO WAY intended as medical advice or expert advice on cancer treatment.

48-year-old Karen lives in Cape Town, South Africa, and started out as an occupational therapist. Following her own health journey, she's now beginning her next chapter as a functional medicine health coach - inspiring others to live their healthiest, most thriving selves. She's also a busy mum of one teen, one tween and two lively hounds.
