Life was great when I was working as a physicist and Colonel in the U.S. Air Force…until I got diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Eventually, both my lungs collapsed and filled with fluid and I was put into hospice and on oxygen where I was given 4 weeks to live. Miraculously, I survived. I’m Deanna Won, #1 international bestselling author, Founder of Keynotes to Life, speaker and holistic health coach here to help you to love your life and live in health. I believe that I was given a second chance at life not just for me, but for the many out there who need inspiration and empowerment.
