What would you do if a doctor told you there was no medical explanation for why you were alive?
Sometimes one extraordinary story becomes the miracle someone else needs to keep believing.
In this special Borrowing Miracles episode of Monomyth Diaries, we sit down with Regan Caruthers—author of Tragic Magic, spiritual teacher, and founder of Aset Yoga Center—to explore the miraculous turning point that changed the course of her life.
After decades of building a beautiful life in California, Regan received an unmistakable message during meditation: leave everything and return home to Missouri. Months later came another urgent prompting—to see a doctor immediately. What followed was a shocking diagnosis of a life-threatening congenital heart defect that physicians believed should have taken her life years before it was ever discovered.
Regan shares how intuition, faith, and radical obedience led her through open-heart surgery and into a deeper purpose of serving others. She also tells the remarkable story of a student who later revealed that meeting Regan may have saved her own life—a reminder that miracles rarely stop with the person who experiences them.
Whether you’ve questioned your intuition, wrestled with faith, survived the impossible, or simply need hope today, Regan’s story reminds us that sometimes another person’s miracle can strengthen our own belief.
Join us for this Borrowing Miracles bonus episode as we explore intuition, faith, survival, and what it means to borrow belief from someone else’s story.
