Description

Have you ever faced a devastating an unexpected tragedy in your life?


What do you do when you face a problem so big that fear and pain shout louder than hope and certainty?


Not too long ago, Mandy Meehan faced an overwhelming reality that she never saw coming.


Mandy, Newly married, had dedicated her future to ministry, and along with her husband, James and father, Craig Groeschel, served as a pastor at one of the largest churches in the world, Life.church  She loved her role as youth pastor.


But, after becoming very ill and not getting better, she was diagnosed with a chronic illness that not only threatened her health but, cost her the career of her dreams, along with a huge part of her identity and wellbeing.


Mandy didn’t settle for that!  Even-though she was in the middle of what felt like darkness, she clung to who she knew she was as a follower of Jesus and her purpose to serve. Her strength came from creating a new way to love God and love others... a new way to serve.


Though Mandy was forced to take a different path, her purpose was reignited with even greater clarity to bring hope and healing to people, so that they can be all that God has created them to be.


Mandy advocated for her own health and healing through functional medicine and nutrition and made the courageous decision to share her journey on Youtube as a way to help others who are struggling with chronic illness and more.


Mandy now has 23.2K Instagram followers and 12.4K subscribers on her Youtube channel.  Through her online community she provides hope and help with healing as a pastor, a functional nutritionist, and trailblazer for others who have experienced a threatening diagnosis or challenge and are unwilling to accept it as a life sentence.
