In this deeply moving episode, we welcome our first ever guest, legendary actress Hayley Mills now ready to share her powerful story of healing, identity, and the courageous journey of becoming true to herself 17 years post diagnosis with breast cancer.
Hosts Dr. Rosy Daniel and Karen Mellers explore the Health Creation Principle of Being True to Yourself through Hayley’s personal cancer journey, her decision to engage with the integrative healthcare approach and the importance of reclaiming her true self after a lifetime spent people-pleasing and performing.
With warmth, honesty and incredible insight, Hayley reflects on:
- Receiving a breast cancer diagnosis on her birthday in New York in 2008
- Navigating conflicting medical values and family pressure
- Finding strength to make deeply personal health decisions and adopt an integrative medicine approach to recovering her health and wellbeing
- Reclaiming her true self after decades of playing roles — both on screen and in life
- Embracing love, spirituality and authenticity as key pillars of healing
