Set Me Free: When the Healer Becomes the Patient, the Journey Home Begins
What happens when the doctor becomes the patient... and everything she believed about healing is no longer enough?
After more than twenty-five years as a board-certified OB/GYN, Dr. Stefanie Mikulics was accustomed to guiding women through their most vulnerable moments. She understood medicine. She trusted science. She knew how to heal others.
Then breast cancer changed everything.
In Set Me Free, Dr. Mikulics invites you into a deeply personal, unfiltered journey, one that moves beyond diagnoses and treatment plans into something far more profound. What begins in hospital rooms and operating suites becomes a powerful search for healing through faith, surrender, energy work, and a return to self.
This is not just a story of illness.
It is a story of transformation.
Through moments of fear, grace, and unexpected beauty, you will discover:
• A physician learning to release control and embrace true healing
• The intersection of science, spirituality, and the human spirit
• The quiet guidance that emerges when we finally learn to listen
• The courage to receive help, rest deeply, and trust something greater
With honesty, vulnerability, and compassion, Dr. Mikulics reveals what so many women experience but rarely say out loud:
The cost of always being the strong one.
The weight of always being the giver.
The silent longing to be healed.
This book is for:
• The healer who has forgotten she deserves healing
• The woman who has carried too much for too long
• The giver learning how to receive
• Anyone ready to believe that freedom is possible
Tender. Spiritual. Deeply human.
Set Me Free is more than a memoir, it is a mirror, a guide, and an invitation to come home to yourself.
You will not just read this story.
You will feel it.
And you may never see healing the same way again.
