Share what you found most inspiring about Lyn’s story in the comments on the episode page.   Quotes “Even in the midst of the incorrect diagnosis, I started to explore other options because I was just like, nobody here is listening to me, I’m not feeling better, and there have to be other things that I can do to help myself.” (13:06) “How do you even talk about a health condition without saying ‘I have this’? It becomes a whole long sentence to just say ‘I am currently living with this, but I believe my body can heal’. Sometimes I say it that way because I actually cringe every time I say I have this diagnosis.” (20:00) “Yes, I might be currently living with this health challenge, but I am still all the things I was before, I am still all of those other identities.” (21:40) “I needed that illness to wake me up, but yet I wouldn't say I should feel ashamed of that. I was like that's just what needed to happen for me to finally get the message through my thick skull.” (27:45)   Resources Mentioned Get Your 2 Free Chapters Here Heart Fire Healing Website Follow Heart Fire Healing on Facebook | Instagram You Are Not Your Diagnosis by Lyn Delmastro-Thomson Episode #110 with Terry Wahls Get the Essential Oils Hormone Solution Here Follow Dr. Mariza’s Virtual Book Club on Facebook | Instagram   Other Resources: The Essential Oils Hormone Solution by Dr. Mariza Check out the full show notes page Keep up with everything Dr. Mariza Follow Dr. Mariza on Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | Youtube
