"I say we are thriving and believe we are thrivers."Article continues below advertisement When the Good Morning America anchor underwent a bone marrow transplant to treat Myelodysplastic Syndrome, she wanted to define herself, not let her illness define her. "I had a choice," she wrote on Thriver Thursday's page, "let my illnesses define me and give into my difficult circumstances, or embrace my experience as a 'rebirth.' I refused to look back and only looked forward. Like many others, I chose to thrive, not just survive." That drive is what led her to create Thriver Thursdays, a "social initiative" that spotlights thrivers like herself. "People who persevere, achieve their goals and even surpass them despite life-altering circumstances. It's everything from people who have experienced a catastrophic diagnosis, unexpected loss, unemployment, divorce, or personal betrayal. These are people who were faced with a choice and they chose to thrive."Article continues below advertisement View this post on Instagram It's a new year and we have a new episode of @rocknrobintv digital series #ThriverThursday!
