I was a happy, spirited, motivated, carefree 13 year old, until I was given a life changing diagnosis. I had kidney cancer. I was later diagnosed with a genetic kidney cancer disorder and I had my kidney removed. After going through all I went through, I had anxiety, and I wasn’t spirited, carefree or motivated like I had been.
Dr. Erica Harris’ coaching program at Rise Today changed that for me. Something clicked in what she taught me and I became that happy, spirited, and carefree girl I had been. I am motivated and I feel I have a purpose again. This program will help you if you are a survivor of hardship.
Thank you Erica for helping me find myself again.

I reached out to Erica when it felt like my whole world was crashing down. Every-time I turned around I was faced with a new obstacle. I wanted to give up.
Then I remembered my good friend Erica who has travelled a similar path. She was always so positive and real, that’s what drew me towards her.
Erica began working with me to equip me with tools and strategies to help me navigate through my health prognosis.
She taught me strategies on how to be prepared if things go array. She taught me to a build a Vision board and I use it everyday as a constant reminder of what I’m fighting so hard for and various other tips and tools.
I will be forever grateful for her friendship and all the tools she’s given me to navigate this crazy life.

Throughout my life like many others, I have faced challenges and obstacles, taking them in stride and working through them as I thought best. Though difficult at times nothing seemed insurmountable and with a concerted effort, I always found my path forward. Unfortunately, all of that changed for me while facing an acrimonious divorce after 16 years of marriage with two young children. Appreciatively I met Dr. Harris who drew on her own resilience and fortitude to demonstrate that with help we can overcome even the harshest experiences. Her tools and techniques help guide my thought process and allowed me to see choices from a new perspective while grounding me in my purpose and surprisingly allowing me to see my own needs. Looking back I wonder in amazement that I’ve moved so far forward and now equipped with her tools I’m more comfortable knowing that no matter what the future holds it will be as glorious as today.

I’ve endured challenges from sports-related head injuries and from time to time have found myself struggling with PAIN, FEAR and FRUSTRATION. Erica has been able to provide me with practical insight on tackling these challenges step by step and to take accountability for how I wake up and decide to live each day.
What makes Erica so special is her practical experience from her own struggles, her history as a practicing sports Chiropractor and her “infectious can-do” attitude. I’d recommend anyone who is struggling to find the right attitude to get in touch with Erica. Her strategies are easy to implement and yet, are life changing.

The gift in the Rise Today Inspirational Podcastand in all of the speakers is that it bridges us together in our adversity. It leaves us feeling more empowered simply in knowing that we can and will get through this because “we” are not at all alone
— Cathy Turk
I just wanted to take a minute and thank you for helping me get my story/journey out there. My goal in telling my journey was to start a conversation and WOW! What a conversation we have started! Since the podcast aired I have had so many people reach out. Some wanting to offer their prayers, some telling me about their own journeys, some had follow up question about stomas and rectal cancer but most just wanted to thank me for being brave enough to share my story/journey. They wanted to let me know that they now feel empowered to share their own stories. This is exactly what I was hoping would happen so THANK YOU so very much for what you do. Please continue bringing the hard topics to light and I will continue to watch so that I may continue to grow and learn.

Erica Harris has a tremendous and inspiring story story that cuts to the heart of our humanity. Her moving story of overcoming significant and personal adversity in the setting of overwhelming odds had great impact upon the audience of healthcare professionals at the annual Canadian Critical Care Conference. She presents herself in a personable, humble, yet straightforward manner. She teaches us all that in the end, it’s not the adversity that defines us but rather we are defined by how we choose to meet the challenges that come our way. I have been privileged to see Erica present her story.
