My Life, My Victory: Shant Cimenian on Faith, Resilience, and Turning Pain Into Purpose

In this compelling episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, we sit down with Shant Cimenian—author, film producer, and entrepreneur—to explore his extraordinary journey from battling Familial Mediterranean Fever to inspiring thousands globally. Diagnosed at 23 with a rare and excruciating genetic condition, Shant turned his pain into purpose, chronicling his experiences in the memoir My Life, My Victory, now read in over 25 countries and soon to be a feature film. We dive deep into the mental strength it takes to live victoriously despite chronic illness, the role of faith in finding meaning through adversity, and the power of turning personal struggles into global missions of hope. This conversation is a raw and uplifting reminder that resilience isn't about avoiding hardship—it’s about rising through it.
