A chat w/ Erin Soto, author of “The Mother of All Fights”
Erin describes how her life “came to a halt” when she found out she had stage 3 colon cancer — she says it was a wake up call to take care of herself, prioritize her health, and value her life
50% of cancer deaths are caused by lifestyle habits — Erin has committed herself to teaching others how to reduce their risks of chronic illness
Erin Soto’s book “The Mother of All Fights” is an Amazon bestseller detailing her journey through her cancer diagnosis.
We chat about Erin’s grieving process and how she navigated through imagining the worst case scenarios.
From isolation to finding community + leaning on loved ones
Erin’s relationship with toxic positivity
Anndddd that was Erin Soto — how amazing is she!? My favorite part of the episode is when Erin was talking about her nurse’s point of view on mindset, how those who have a positive outlook tend to fair better and go into remission….I actually wanted to tell you that I just listened to an episode of Amy Porterfield’s podcast on this exact thing and it pairs with my conversation with Erin super well. It’s titled Science-Backed Data On How Thoughts Influence Your Success and features Michael Hyatt, who just had a heart attack last fall and talked through that experience. I’d really love to hear your thoughts on this topic — head over to the Montana Diaries Podcast Facebook group and write a post to continue this discussion, or just introduce yourself over there.
