KC Eames shares the story of how a sudden health crisis flipped her life upside down. What began as a strange headache turned out to be a brainstem bleed caused by a rare cluster of blood vessels. With no treatment available and surgery too risky, KC was left with emotional trauma—and a choice. Over time, she’s transformed that fear into fierce gratitude, reclaimed her adventurous spirit, and become more connected, expressive, and alive than ever before. She talks about identity, introversion, spirituality, and what it truly means to “take life by the reins.”
