When Deb Shaffer was diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer, her doctor told her that she might make it two more years<\/a>. But for Deb, that wasn\u2019t nearly enough.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAt the time, my oncologist gave me two years, and I found that completely unacceptable,\u201d she recalls. \u201cEspecially on the day of my first surgery, my son started his first day of eighth grade.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

So she sat down and had a long talk with God<\/a> about the situation. She told Him she didn\u2019t min shuffling off this mortal coil so early, but she couldn\u2019t bear to leave her son motherless so early in his life.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI plumped myself down and I said, \u2018OK God, this is not how this is going to go down,’\u201d she recalls. \u201c\u2018I will do what you need me to do.’\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

But what exactly was it that God needed her to do to survive? Deb says the answer just came to her.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe universe came through, and it was like, \u2018Girl, go out to your garden<\/a> and look what you\u2019ve got,\u2019 and I just started creating,\u201d she explains.<\/span><\/p>\n

So Deb got started working with herbs and spiritual elements to heal and uplift herself. As she learned more about this unique art form, she decided she needed to start a business to help others going through difficult times find their inner peace as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI create products that blend inspiration from the universe with the magic that the earth gives us,\u201d says Deb. \u201cI work with their energetic, their spiritual, and their magical properties to create candles and incense blends<\/a>. All kinds of things that would help elevate your energy or vibe.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Now, 15 years after her original cancer diagnosis, Deb is flourishing in her work as a spiritual herbalist and owns a little business called Enchanted Botanicals<\/a>. Deb\u2019s goal is to make the people who use her products feel more powerful and uplifted.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAnd if I can do that, high five to me, I\u2019m hitting my mission!\u201d she says.<\/span><\/p>\n

Not everyone believes in the magical properties of Deb\u2019s herbal remedies, but you can\u2019t argue with the fact that her lifestyle is working out well for her. After all, she\u2019s already lived 13 years longer than her doctors ever thought possible! Way to go, Deb!<\/span><\/p>\n
