Heidi Bright
In 2009, specialists predicted Heidi Bright would die in a matter of months from highly aggressive metastatic sarcoma. Remember thinking, when you or someone you love was diagnosed, “Cancer! It’s a death sentence!” Two years later, Heidi was told to get her affairs in order. Now she has enjoyed 5-½ years of radical remission, free of evidence of disease and free of cancer treatment. She received the 2014 Voices of Women Award for outstanding achievement in personal growth and transformation from Whole Living Journal. Her third traditionally published nonfiction book, Thriver Soup: A Feast for Living Consciously During the Cancer Journey, is surgeon-endorsed with 250 practical tips. She blogs weekly on her website, thriversoup.com.
