Women of Life changing, Inc
Founder and Sarcoidosis Survivor: Stacy Sneed
"My vision is to promote mental healing by fostering personal growth through a wide range of life experiences, and to nurture physical and spiritual well-being through the transformative power of dance."
Women of Life Changing Inc. Is a vision I received while battling the debilitating disease known as Sarcoidosis.
Sarcoidosis is a condition that impacts various organs, including the lymph nodes, lungs, liver, heart, eyes, and skin, profoundly affecting essential functions such as breathing, speaking, walking, and writing. When diagnosed in 2000, the disease significantly impacted not only my life but also that of my husband and children. Not only did it affect my internal organs and skin, but it also altered my physical appearance. Enduring years of bullying due to misunderstanding rather than gaining insight into my condition through respectful inquiry was mentally and physically challenging.
Realizing the need to take control, I educated myself about the disease and incorporated exercise, improved nutrition, and daily prayer into my lifestyle, endeavoring to minimize stress. Shifting my perspective from negativity to positivity, I was resolute in overcoming the illness. Following remission, I sought to share my testimony with other women facing challenges, aiming to inspire through shared experiences.
Regrettably, Sarcoidosis resurged in 2016 due to stress, depression, and anxiety, leading to an uncontrolled flare-up. Engaged in an exhaustive two-year battle without relinquishing control to a God, I learned the importance of faith and mental well-being.
I urge all readers to maintain faith in the face of adversities, recognizing the futility of sacrificing mental and physical health. I remain steadfast in combating negativity, reaffirming my resilience and determination to succeed in my life's journey.
