Cancer awakens you and calls you to live your best life.
If I’m guessing, you’re probably pretty pissed at cancer.
After all, you never invited it in. You never asked for it. But it came anyway – taking away everything you once knew and held valuable. Your body. Your safety. Your sanity. Your health.
Cancer is really a wake up call to live the best life, ever!
That is how it was for me.
I’ll be honest, for so much of my life I hated myself, my life and especially my body. I internalized childhood traumas – my fear, my sadness, and my anger – so much so that I believe it made me sick.
But after I was diagnosed for the second time, I realized that cancer was offering me an opportunity to truly heal. To take what I had been given and fight for myself . . . for maybe the first time in my life.
And that’s how it can be for you. My life’s purpose is to show you the silver lining of cancer. How to turn anger, fear and pain and use it to transform your life in every way imaginable!
I work with women just like you who are ready to truly reclaim their strength, their body and their purpose and find a life they love beyond cancer!
How Emilee’s Work Has Changed Lives!
It Took Cancer and Almost Dying for Me to Finally Love Myself
Sitting in my surgeon’s office at the age of 39, I looked like the model of health. As a pilates and yoga instructor, I ate right and took care of my physical body. But there I was, listening to her share the earth-shaking news. I had Stage IIIC ovarian cancer – a kind of cancer that my surgeon characterized as particularly “nasty”. She shared that I was going to lose my colon and my “lady parts”, but that she could partially reconstruct them by using tissue from my abs. I burst into tears.
As if facing a divorce wasn’t enough, I now had cancer for the second time in my life.
And to make matters worse, my body – the one I already criticized and critiqued for her every flaw – would be left completely ravaged, torn apart and unrecognizable.
When I saw what I would look like after surgery, my first thoughts were, “I’d rather die!”
But with three incredible kids, I realized that dying was just not an option for me. So, I decided to fight – to beat cancer, to live and to show others that no matter what cancer takes away, you can still find hope, strength and truly fall in love with all of who you are!
And although I’ve had dark moments, anxiety and grueling pain – after thirteen surgeries, an ileostomy bag, genital reconstruction and scars that cover my entire abdomen and pelvis, I have never loved my body and my life more!
“After meeting Emilee during a session of B-School, I ordered her workout DVD and asked to have a peek at her upcoming exercise program. I absolutely LOVE it and you will too!”

Recovery is a process – it’s not a race.
Everyone diagnosed with cancer has a different background and history.
Whatever you are bringing with you into this experience, including lack of self-love, self-confidence and negative body image, I know first hand that you can make a comeback.
