No Cure for Being Human with Kate Bowler
No Cure for Being Human with Kate Bowler
At the age of 35, Kate Bowler was diagnosed with Stage IV colon cancer. Tired of relentlessly positive mantras and advice on how to live her “best life now,” Kate questioned how to grapple with her grim diagnosis in a culture that believes everything is fixable. Kate explains the idea of toxic positivity and why so many Americans practice it. As well, she shares the key to living a courageous life - and it has nothing to do with overcoming fear. In an episode that is sure to make you laugh and cry, join Sharon and Kate, who became a best-selling author, as they walk through the beauty, magic, heartbreak and hilariousness of the human experience.
