In this powerful episode of Mermaid Musings, host Tara Coyote reconnects with fellow Stage 4 cancer thriver and beloved friend Willow Star (formerly known as Keri Vaca). Recorded in May 2020 during the early days of the pandemic, this Zoom conversation was originally part of Tara’s vision for a documentary titled Cancer Thriver Film - spotlighting late-stage cancer patients who continue to defy the odds.

Fast forward to today: both Tara and Willow are still here, thriving, and shining as living proof that miracles exist.

In Part 2 of this two-part series, Tara and Willow explore:

• What inspired Willow to share her cancer journey so openly online
• The emotional toll of losing friends and community members to cancer
• How we can all benefit from listening to our fear and exploring what it’s asking us to heal… even if we aren’t facing illness

Their raw and honest conversation is a must-listen for anyone navigating illness, seeking alternative healing, or simply in need of hope. Hit play to witness the courage and compassion between two women redefining what it means to live with Stage 4 cancer.

In this heartfelt and spontaneous episode of Mermaid Musings, Tara Coyote shares an unexpected yet powerful conversation with renowned mind-body medicine expert, Dr. Dean Shrock. Originally not intended for public release, this vibrant exchange became too meaningful not to share. The result? A deeply authentic, informal, and inspiring talk that feels more like a soul-to-soul connection than a traditional interview.

Dr. Dean Shrock served as the Director of Mind-Body Medicine for a physician group overseeing 40 cancer centers. His groundbreaking wellness programs demonstrated improved survival rates for cancer patients, anchored in the healing power of love, purpose, and inner peace. He is the bestselling author of “Doctor’s Orders: Go Fishing, Why Love Heals, and Living and Thriving.”

In this episode, Dr. Shrock and Tara explore:

• How love and connection influence healing and longevity
• The importance of purpose and emotional expression in cancer recovery
• Mind-body-spirit medicine and its growing role in integrative oncology
• Why living fully is one of the most powerful medicines we have

Whether you're navigating illness, supporting a loved one, or simply seeking deeper wellness, this conversation will leave you feeling uplifted and empowered.
