This week on Author Success Show, we had the pleasure of interviewing the inspiring couple Dan Junkins and Jana Scholten.

Dan Junkins was diagnosed in 2017 with acute myeloid leukemia with only weeks to live. He now lives a vital, healthy and thriving life five years later. Terminal illness can be a gradual death sentence. After receiving his diagnosis, he was frozen, lost and speechless. This was his lowest point emotionally, psychologically and spiritually. As it turns out, it was a new beginning.

Now he shares his empowering story in his newly published book, “Peacocks Poison and Leukemia: A Life of Vibrant Health!” and shows how to be healthy and thriving. How he discovers the amazing peacock and its ability to eat poison, using the science of "emergence", drawing on his environment and relationships to resolve and move through the illness, his chemotherapy and blossoming new life.

Jana Scholten was diagnosed in 2000 with multiple sclerosis. She shares her powerful story of becoming free from multiple sclerosis in her new bestselling book “Enchanted Wellness: How To Go From Hating Disease to Loving It!”. 

Diagnosed in 2000 with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis, and told she would be disabled in ten years, Jana challenged herself by training to be a triathlete over the following nine years, while still taking MS drugs and dealing with dizziness, numbness, vertigo, and massive fatigue. 

At her lowest point, she discovered the powerful world of mind body medicine, taking on meditation and visualization practices. She also took on forgiving others and herself, releasing her from past abuses in her life. This path led to being symptom free, drug free and in benign status by her doctors. Her story shares the power of loving and forgiving not only others but also herself and her body.
