"I believe that a self-care regimen that expands our capacity to laugh deeply, frequently, and freely delivers the best medicine."
—Ilana Kristeva
Diagnosed with one of the most painful nerve disorders, Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), as well as other physical and mental conditions, I dare to live my best life ever! Giving up would be easier, but each day I embrace and partner with my inner rebel to overcome challenges. Activating my attitude of gratitude and a treasure chest of tools, I cross finish lines throughout the day with grace, ease, and laughter. You can, too!
My name is Ilana Kristeva, Self-Care Vigilante, always ready to inspire leaders to shine while in service to others. With tremendous gratitude, I am living proof that neuroplasticity is not just another beautiful scientific theory; it is my reality. No longer bedridden and in a wheelchair, I celebrate living in the ONE body I’ll ever have and am now fit, fabulous, and fifty+. Join me and F.L.O.W.—Feel Light Offering Wisdom, as we explore our life-adventure lists together!
