My Race Against Death - An Inspiring Fight Against Illness and The Journey to Empower Others - Shoba Rao : 123

Because Everyone Has A Story - BEHAS

When life handed Shoba Rao the toughest of challenges at just 22, a battle with kidney failure, she didn't just face it—she became her beam of hope. Shoba's narrative is not just about surviving; it's a deep exploration of how illness can redefine one's philosophy of life, highlighting the profound impact of resilience and self-advocacy.
She rises with even greater determination, embracing her experiences to transform her perspective and empower those around her. We discuss the essential role of support systems, the emotional labour of caregivers, the unique ways we each respond to life's adversities, the cathartic process of writing her story and the importance of instilling hope and advocating for others facing the darkness of illness.
Her book "My Race Against Death: Lessons Learned From My Health Struggles" offers a matter-of-fact view of cancer treatments and living life to the fullest despite the disease as seen through the eyes of an India native who is now a San Francisco Bay Area company executive.
Join us as we celebrate Shoba's remarkable voyage.
