The Unbound Body

In this unique offering, The Unbound Body explores author Danielle Doby's deeply personal journey with cancer through both poetry and memoir. Doby offers her insights on grief, joy, trauma, love, healing, and how one can move closer to life by choosing to offer their attention, staying present in moment and body.

At the young age of 34, and having spent three years traveling through the medical system in search of answers, Danielle Doby was given the news that she had an aggressive form of breast cancer. Everything she held to be true was thrown out of her grasp and scattered across the floor, down at her feet. What she didn't know then, that she soon learned, a global pandemic was nearing, and much of the unknown that lay before her would need to be traveled alone.

Doby's intimate way of storytelling strives to answer the questions, What defines a miracle? And, when do you know you've experienced one?
