I don’t do well with injustice. -Christine Anastos
10 years ago, environmental engineer Christine Anastos knew something was wrong with her health. When tests came back normal, her care team suggested Christine see a psychiatrist. Her answer? “There’s nothing wrong with my brain. I know my body well.” It wasn’t long before Christine was diagnosed with breast cancer. The suspected cause? Environmental hazards. The company Christine was working for as an environmental engineer had been dumping toxins into the Hudson River, and she became a whistleblower, reaching a settlement and using those funds to do good. Today, she is the founder of a public benefit corporation called www.connect-and-thrive.com. The mission? To bridge the gap between conventional medicine and a holistic approach to healing. Says Christine: “true healing is not a destination. It is a lifelong journey. Balancing mind, body, and spirit is the key to becoming healthy again.” Her website is a marketplace where women find evidence-based healing modalities and products not usually covered by insurance. Crowdfunding campaigns called “Kitty Funds” make powerful healing possible. Says Christine: “Success is making a positive difference in the lives of people who are suffering. Kindness matters.” #healing #breastcancer #hope #candyoterry
