84: Two Time Cancer Thriver - A Chef's Triumph Over Cancer & Path to HealingStrong | Jill Sonlin

I AM HealingStrong

Discover strength, faith, and culinary passion as we're joined by Jill Sonlin, a two time cancer survivor whose life story defies the odds. Jill received an early stage breast cancer in 2017, and in 2022 received an aggressive Non Hodgkins Lymphoma diagnosis. Jill's story is one of unshakeable belief and divine intervention, with her career as a nurse evolving into a remarkable journey as a French-trained chef. Her resilience not only carried her through the darkest of times, but also ignited a fervent dedication to health, wellness, and the nourishment of others. In our heartfelt conversation, she opens up about her personal battles, her transition into the world of culinary arts, and how she utilizes her platform to spread hope and invaluable knowledge in the realm of healing.
Imagine facing the depths of illness only to be touched by a sense of peace so profound it reshapes your entire being. That is the essence of Jill's near-death experiences, which we uncover in an emotionally rich discussion. Her fight with breast cancer, the unexpected emergence of lymphoma, and the spiritual encounters that guided her through it all—Jill's narrative is a powerful reminder of the complexities of cancer treatment, but also celebrates the impact of faith in overcoming life’s most formidable challenges.
Pivoting toward the collective journey of healing, we spotlight HealingStrong, a nonprofit organization that Jill champions. HealingStrong's mission is to embolden those seeking to reclaim their health, providing a sanctuary for connection, support, and education grounded in the belief that healing is not just possible, but achievable. Through local and online groups, HealingStrong spreads the message that in togetherness and faith, we can rise above adversity. Tune in for an episode that's not just a story but a source of inspiration, teaching us all that when we stand together in community, our potential for wellness knows no bounds.
