I often share my brand, but rarely my story.
This video shares both in 60 seconds.
I survived a cancer that should’ve killed me
I lost an eye, but found a mission.
Here’s where it all began:
When I was two, I was diagnosed with a rare form of eye cancer.
By the time the doctors found it, it was too late for chemotherapy.
The tumor had wrapped itself behind my left eye, dangerously close to the brain.
There was no choice, it had to be removed.
The doctors told my parents I shouldn’t have survived.
There’s no good explanation for why I’m still here.
Yet here I am.
And while I lost an eye, I gained something else.
A sense that my life wasn’t entirely mine anymore.
That maybe, it was a stewardship,
a gift to be used, not wasted.
It’s strange how losing an eye helped me see things more clearly.
You tend to see things differently when you’ve brushed that close to death.
You don’t drift through life.
You live it on purpose.
I think that’s why I’m building what I’m building.
Why I care so much.
Why I wake up feeling like I owe something to this life.
As George Bernard Shaw once wrote,
“Life is no brief candle to me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got hold of for the moment,
and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations.”
That’s what I’m here to do.
I’m here to create something that helps millions on their healing journey, just like it helped my mom on hers.
I’m not here to be casual in life.
I’m here to seek life to the full.
