The Power of Choice: Jannine Gearon's Insight on Life and Living Fully As She Goes Through The Voluntary Assisted Dying Process

Trigger Warning - Facing terminal illness with love and ironically a sense of control, I not only have the great privilege of supporting Jannine through coaching, but she decided to speak with me here to share her deeply personal experience of living with a terminal illness and her decision to explore voluntary assisted dying (VAD).   Jannine recounts the rapid progression of her diagnosis, her treatments, and her moments of empowerment. She discusses the emotional and practical aspects of VAD, highlighting the importance of control and choice in her journey. This is the first episode amongst a small series of episodes to serve as an informative and compassionate resource for those affected by terminal illness who may be considering VAD, and offers valuable insights into living life authentically and purposefully for all of us who are blessed to have time on our hands. If you have people in your life impacted by terminal illness, please use your intuition if you feel to share this episode with them. Equally if you, the listener is impacted by terminal illness, our intention is that this will help you in your journey.  If you are part of support communities on social media, we'd so appreciate you sharing these episodes.
