Which tools and resources have been most supportive for working with her psychological experience since her ALS diagnosis. Teri’s incredible book No Pressure, No Diamonds: Mining for Gifts in Illness and Loss and the profound wisdom she captures through her writing. She was a successful and gifted psychotherapist, dedicated spiritual practitioner and engaged community member.įrom the moment she received the diagnosis, her entire life changed and ever since she has been on a profound journey of awakening and healing. Dillion was given a terminal diagnosis with ALS at age 35, shortly after getting married to the love of her life. The vulnerability and messiness of these questions is why I am incredibly grateful to have a very special guest with us this week on the podcast. 
Not one of us is immune to the realities of illness and loss, death and aging–as the saying goes, “none of us are getting out of this thing called life, alive.” I ask these questions, not because there is a right or wrong way, but rather because it is something that we all have to face, both in ourselves and in the ones we love. What do you do with the very visceral vulnerability of being human and the incredible impermanence that it entails? When the folks in your life are having a hard time, do you get more involved or pull back? Does your heart sink or stomach drop when you hear about someone’s journey with intense illness or personal loss?
