Description

Petrea King's remarkable story is one of resilience and determination. Born with health issues that left her in and out of hospital as a child, she went on to become a nurse and later a naturopath, herbalist, homoeopath, yoga instructor, meditation teacher and counsellor. Her own struggles with acute myeloid leukemia were a turning point, but it was her use of meditation and processing past traumatic experiences that helped her recover. This is the story of Petrea King's journey towards healing and purpose. After being given little chance to live, she defied the odds and founded the Quest for Life Foundation in 1989. Since then, she has dedicated herself to supporting people living with cancer, neurological and other serious physical illnesses, as well as those suffering from grief, loss, post-trauma stress and mental illnesses. Up Until Now is a testament to Petrea King's strength and generosity of spirit. Her life's work is a powerful reminder that even in the face of adversity, it is possible to find purpose and make a meaningful difference in the world.
