“Nancy Hopps has clearly been there in the trenches of cancer, caregiving, divorce, grief, and more. All the Courage Love Takes is in part about Nancy’s cancer journey—and it is about so much more: relationships, synchronicity, trusting guidance, standing in your truth, and living a fully-expressed life. It is a well-crafted, easy-to-read combination of a compelling, inspiring story and down-to-earth practical applications. Nancy shows us how to cultivate the courage to fully embrace even the hardest, scariest times. Told with honesty, vulnerability, and clarity, this beautiful life-changing book is a fabulous toolkit and an inspirational must-read for the sincere spiritual seeker. I will be reflecting on Nancy’s wisdom and basking in her love for a very long time.”

“All the Courage Love Takes is a phenomenal book offering an inspirational story of courage, resilience, and faith. Nancy shares her incredible journey of dealing with cancer – both hers and her loved ones’ – with great heart and authenticity. Taking radical responsibility for her health and overcoming the huge challenges she has faced over the years has, I believe, been a major factor in her capacity to heal herself and to help others do the same. The book is full of practical solutions to help you get the very best out of life and to give yourself the gift of optimal health and well-being. It is engaging, informative and supportive. It challenges preconceived thinking about many topics, particularly about dealing with cancer. It is a MUST-read!”
—Gina Gardiner, best-selling author of Thriving Not Surviving

“Nancy Hopps’s incredible book is the intriguing story of several seminal chapters of her life. She guides us through it all, revealing how she used inspiration, relationship with Spirit, and intuitive knowing through its many unexpected twists and turns. Nancy offers simple practices that help us all deepen our connection to Spirit. I especially loved her focus on the power of Love as the core ingredient in healing and in managing life well. Very impressive!”
—Meredith Young-Sowers, D.Div., author of Angelic Messenger Cards, Wisdom Bowls, and Spirit Heals

“From the first time I met Nancy Hopps, more than twenty years ago, I have been deeply impressed by the quality of her being. She is a remarkably gracious, graceful spirit. . .an elegant, radiant soul who lives in a body that has presented her with a stunning array of complex physical conditions—several of which were ‘life-threatening.’ Those ‘conditions’ served as the laboratory for deepening her understanding of the process of healing, and what it means to ‘heal.’ In this incredibly comprehensive book, Nancy takes us along as fellow travelers on her own intricate journey into healing her body. And she shares how that journey led her to become a gifted vessel of healing for many, many others. This book will bless you with an abundance of tools for use in your own healing journey. You will come away knowing—in the depths of your being—that LOVE is the greatest healer.”
—Ramananda John E. Welshons, author, One Soul, One Love, One Heart; When Prayers Aren’t Answered; and Awakening From Grief

“All the Courage Love Takes is an amazing outpouring of honesty and sharing of our human vulnerabilities. Over the years Nancy has been my guide and teacher as I, too, dealt with cancer. It was her guidance and the loving meditations in her Relax into Healing audio series that kept me going through some of my darkest times. Those recordings were such gifts to me, and to many others via our cancer resource center. And now this! This book has taken me on yet another healing journey. Thank you, Nancy, for helping me remember who I AM.”
 —Marcia Crim, Retired Hospital CEO and CNO

“This heartfelt memoir beautifully illustrates how our response to the events in our life determines our peace of mind and guides us on our healing journey. Nancy invites the reader to have faith in their inner knowing, to take charge of their lives in a positive way, and confidently take action! She shares breathing techniques, meditations, simple processes and practices, and audios to assist the reader to navigate life’s curveballs. I found the book easy to read, informative, and enlightening. I couldn’t put it down!”

“Generously sharing her journey as actor and healing arts professional, as mother and cancer survivor, Nancy Hopps’s soulful memoir exhibits the raw vulnerability that truly exemplifies the courage of love. This book indicates how standing with our full presence in the face of both life’s wounds and gifts taught her—and  may teach each of its readers—to assume the role of healer on behalf of ourselves and our communities.”
