About the Guest: Christina Mangino never imagined herself running a nonprofit. However, in 2017, a car accident left her with a herniated disc, L5-S1, and she was scheduled for a discotomy. In a twist of fate, Christina spoke with two close friends that same week—friends who had independently started an alternative cancer hospital in Mexico. Both urged her to postpone her surgery and visit them, setting her on an unexpected journey that would change her life forever.
