Shawnise Cantell’s Bio

I am an Arkansas native. Early in life Shawnise perseveres through life’s challenges and crisis. Being a teen mom propelled me to work hard and finish medical school. As my career begins to take off at the Arkansas Heart Hospital, I faced a life-altering event after childbirth that left me with physical and emotional scars. My 20 minute near-death, out-of-body experience is best described as a Miracle. To help me process and cope with my new life, I sought the help of a therapist and psychiatrist. As part of my healing process, the psychiatrist recommended that I write a book about my experiences. I hopes that by sharing her inspirational story, God Within the Lily, she can be a voice to the voiceless, empower and inspire others. I love exploring nature, traveling, and staying active in general with my family. August 28, 2019 is the day God declared that I would live and not die!
