Episode 61: Rosie Mankes – Find Your Joy And Run With It

Nobody wants to live in fear. But for Rosie, it was the only way she knew how to survive after enduring the hardest year of her life.

First came her cancer diagnosis. Then, her mom’s dementia worsened to the point that Rosie needed to immediately transition her into an assisted living facility. And just as life seemed like it would start to settle, Rosie’s healthy 58-year-old brother was suddenly killed in an accident.

For a time, anxiety kept Rosie from living the fullness of life—until she realized she didn’t want to spend her life merely getting through. By establishing small, daily resiliency practices, Rosie discovered it was possible to not just survive in the wake of hardship, but to thrive.

In her book, Find Your Joy and Run With It, Rosie captures these practices with wisdom and humour, inspiring her audience to find healing and wholeness.
