Wednesday, I served on the faculty of the Cultural Competency course held at MD Anderson and spoke about whole person living; living a life of happiness, engagement, and a life of meaning. I told my story about breaking my back and lying in the hospital for 6 months, watching the man across the hall lose his legs, and making a promise to myself that if I ever walked again, somehow I’d give back. That decision drove me to graduate school, and many of the choices I’ve made in my wellness career. Not everyone has an igniting experience that drives them through their lives, but we all need to feel like we make a difference, and our life has meaning. Consider how you make a difference in the lives of others this weekend, and ignite a new you!
