Description

On today's episode of Pain to Passion Live, I got to sit down and hear my amazing friend, Dr. Christine Coughlin, share her incredible story of pain and healing. I was so moved by Christine's vulnerability in sharing how she struggled with Body Dysmorphic Disorder and extreme depression after going through an Asian Eye Surgery that went terribly wrong. After enduring an incredibly painful procedure, she found herself looking in the mirror and unable to even recognize herself. This led her down a path of deep despair and had her wrestling with the choice of whether or not to continue living.
Christine's resilience is so amazing, and she talks about how her faith in God, her connection with others, and her commitment to gaining a new perspective and her personal growth changed everything for her. She now walks out what she has learned and shares her faith, her grit, and her commitment to living a vibrant lif with everyone around her, including her incredible team at Thrive Dentistry in Dallas, TX.
I know you are going to love Christine as much as I do, and you'll be so inspired to stay strong, keep the faith, trust God, and believe that He has a good plan for your life, no matter what difficulties you may face.
