Have you met Hillary Rubin yet? She is a blogger for Huffington Post, a yoga and personal empowerment expert, and our featured “real woman”. Hillary has committed her professional and personal life to empowering women to transform their troubled past into opportunities for personal growth and healing.
I recently spoke with Hillary and learned about her struggles, her triumphs and her passion to help others heal through personal transformation and self-empowerment. Here is a sneak preview of her story that she will share with us live in our on-line radio show on October 8th at 7:30 pm EST.
The tingling started in her left foot. Then it continued to her left arm and left breastplate. This was followed by weakness in the legs and numbness in both feet. These physical symptoms turned the simple act of walking into a trial, the discomfort akin to moving on pins and needles. At the time, Hillary didn’t know what was happening to her.
The diagnosis of multiple sclerosis initially left Hillary feeling angry, as if she’d been “given a sentence.” But she had two choices—either to be proactive or let her illness control her life. She embraced the former.
Hillary says she “took the invitation” and made a choice to learn more about her diagnosis, explore treatment options and live healthier. She began frequenting health food stores and talking to the vitamin specialists there; they recommended books on nutritional healing. Hillary says this led to a more internal journey: “I organically listened and decided, OK, now I get to dive in and educate myself.”
To find out how Hillary’s transformative commitment to healing on all levels has given her the freedom to manage her symptoms without medication, join us on October 8th at 7:30 pm EST. Hillary will be joined by Kat Ross, multiple sclerosis patient, and a member of a local chapter of the Multiple Sclerosis Society. For more information, please go to our show page for details on how to participate in the live radio show and on-line health salon.

A recent New York Times article, “My Brain on Chemo, Alive and Alert”, held my feet to the fire to recognize the routines in my life I sometimes abhor. Only good health affords us the priviledge of ignoring gratitude and bliss in favor of blurred images of how we spend our precious time here.
That’s why, when Marisa at the National Women’s Health Resource Center told me about Mary Beth Maida, a breast cancer survivor, and her book, “Beauty Pearls for Chemo Girls”, I knew I had to bring her story to you all. Like Lisa Martinez, Executive Director of the Women's Sexual Health Foundation says, “we are all survivors of breast cancer” since we know more women each year who are diagnosed with this condition, threatening to affect one in eight women over a lifetime. That’s way too common but the good news is that more women are surviving today, based on earlier diagnosis and earlier, better treatments.
With that said, women’s health research shows and personal experience magnifies the fact that personal empowerment is absolutely key for women surviving breast cancer. Enter Mary Beth and her partner Debbie Kiederer, a dynamic and passionate duo who have just launched Beauty Pearls for Chemo Girls – the first-ever community dedicated to women who want to look and feel their best while they deal with the side effects of cancer treatment. They believe that every woman dealing with cancer deserves to look and feel as close to normal as her energy and her spirit will allow. Please join us on September 26th to talk with Mary Beth about her beauty pearls and help a friend, mother, aunt or sister see her beauty inside and out...while coping with chemotherapy.
