New York Times best-selling author Mark Nepo joins Barnet Bain on Cutting Edge Consciousness to talk about his experience with cancer—specifically the gift that it gave him. Both men talk about a maturity in having thoughtfully traveled through certain life challenges that makes us wise. Every challenge in life holds an opportunity—there is a journey inward to find a meaning that elevates our challenges to a particular level where we can receive a gift that is unique to our individual being and circumstance. The gift comes when we surrende—surrender is not about resignation—it is about a deep and profound level of acceptance—offering our will to flow with a current that reveals what is good and true within and on the other side of our challenges.
