How I Got Here…Dani Walker
By Dani Walker
“How did Dani Walker end up being a brand?” I initially wanted to take offense but quickly realized they meant it as a complement. You see, I never intended to become a brand but I always plan to have a purpose.
From Ignorance to Enlightenment:
After my husband went through a 5 year battle with Sarcoidosis I was EXTREMELY motivated to prevent other families from having to be thrown into the “Medical Gauntlet” & go through the damage of disease, as we were.
Sarcoidosis: From A Curse Comes Blessing (everything has a purpose).
Erosion happened slowly in life. As it took my husband years to finally get diagnosed with a disease, it took years of Allopathic treatment to erode our finances, hopes & dreams as well. Please know that I do not blame I just speak openly about our journey from living well, to sick & well again.
In 2008 I found myself stressed, overcome with worry, financially strapped & searching for answers; the toll this disease took on our family both physically and financially inspired (really, forced is a better word) me to learn more about complementary and alternative medicine & the healing power of proper nutrition.
You see, Jack was diagnosed with Sarcoidosis in 2004. We gave traditional Allopathic treatment 3 years and finally came to the place where the erosion was too great. What was left of his health we wanted to keep & felt that multiple medications & possible surgery would only further complicate his quality of life. To continue down that path was insanity: we spent 3 years doing the same thing, hoping for different results & it was long past time for an alternative route.
In 2008 we took a 3 month sabbatical from Sarcoidosis and “pretended” he was not sick at all. We just needed a break, no Dr.s, no meds, no hospitals, no specialists, no tests, no Sarcoidosis. It was a magnificent Summer – but we all know how fast 3 months speeds by.
I am thrilled to say that Jack, my hubby, has now been in remission for 28 months through holistic health practices. You can read more about that here, Sarcoidosis Treatment.
We have “cleaned” up our kitchen and our home! We teach our children everything we learn about health and wellness because we do NOT want them to get sick & we tour the country teaching others the basics of nutrition, our bodies ability to heal & the power of choice (when given an option) to create a healthy future.
This blog, my radio shows, speaking events, the 7 steps to optimal health newsletter, our family restaurant & daily lives are devoted to helping people rejuvenate their body and regenerate our planet; NATURALLY. The two go hand in hand.
Fast forward to 2011, and I am now honored to be a mentor, wife & Mother, helping people take the knowledge & action necessary to live lives free from the limitations of disease. We as a family have helped 100’s of people live healthy, happy & prosperous lives one step at a time. I am currently working on a book, detailing our path from sickness to health, through my families experience with Sarcoidosis.
“Our natural state IS healthy. Restoring Hope to millions is my goal! ” I have a long way to go but feel like this blog is my mountain top where I can reach the masses to offer information & education; which certainly beats medication. Please be sure to subscribe to 7 Steps To Optimal Health for more free & healthy information.
On the days where I talk to 10 sick people who have no hope, this quote and a few tears, or a nice LOUD yell keep me going.
“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed it is the only thing that ever has.” Margaret Mead
My hope is that you learn a little, share a lot & reach out if you need a hand.
