Life can hit us hard. The author of Defy Your Diagnosis! understands firsthand the heartache and disappointment that can be caused by life, broken relationships, career setbacks, illness, and chronic pain. Lorraine knows she isn't alone because forty-five percent of the population suffers from long-term illness and twenty-nine percent endure chronic pain, and it is a heavy load to carry. Having overcome two incurable diseases, Lorraine's principles are what helped her defy her diagnosis, and she now wants to help others do the same. With heart-felt compassion, encouragement, hope, and straight talk, the author shares about her life-its challenges and its victories. "I've learned when we are hit the hardest," says Bosse-Smith," that our growth and faith expands by leaps and bounds. We mature and become more real and true to ourselves." The pain is still real, but the author talks candidly on how to get back up when life has knocked the wind out of them-how their pain can have a purpose. She then shows them how they, too, can defy THEIR diagnosis! Through real-life stories and years of insights as a business and life coach, personal trainer, and professional speaker, the author shares her FIT Life Formula and reminds readers that what they are going through is only temporary and that they, too, can have personal and professional success by getting their life back!
