Margaret Elenis is a mom and business owner fighting stage 4 cancer. She was first diagnosed at age 28, putting herself into remission without the use of drugs. But once it came back, it was time to take a more integrative approach. She’s incredibly connected to her intuition, her voice, and looks fear dead in the face as she takes an untraditional path to heal. She shares the raw reality of doctors refusing to work with her, not having familial support of her choices, and what it’s like to juggle being sick with all the other hats she wears. 



In this episode Margaret spills:
What inspires her to keep going
Her alternative- not socially accepted- approach to fighting cancer
Her reasoning to refuse mastectomies 
The effect of pregnancy on the return of her cancer and why it’s a choice she’d make a 1000 times over.
How to ask questions and be confident when speaking to doctors
What it’s like to be “high risk” and be denied care by doctors
The small things that keep her going each day

In the age of social media, filters, and highlight reels, we work tirelessly to make sure no one sees our cracks, faults, and the messy moments. But what if we let our human show? What if instead, we strived for unconditional vulnerability? Only then could we stay soft in life’s hardest moments and show up as our TRUE selves – the version of us the world needs.  On The Truthiest Life, host Lisa Hayim shares tips, tools, and conversations that will leave you inspired and ready to live your own truthiest life.
