When Alice Grasset faced breast cancer at 40, her world was upended, leaving a corporate career to co-found the Yapura Wellness Center in North Carolina. This personal and professional collision led to the creation of 'Sparkles of Grace' – a holistic program guiding women through the emotional and physical labyrinth of cancer recovery emphasizing the power of yoga, meditation, and coaching in managing treatment side effects and fears of recurrence.
In intimately recounting her own cancer journey, Alice gives voice to the physical, emotional, and spiritual struggles that connect rather than divide those facing this disease. Her story highlights the broader human experience of cancer and exemplifies how a supportive community can transform adversity into purpose.
This is not a story of one woman’s ordeal in isolation, but rather a testament to the shared truths of the cancer path along a road that does not need to be lonely.
