A Doctor’s Journey to Heal the Healer Within
A candid, soul-opening memoir that charts the transformation from a lifetime in medicine to the vulnerability of becoming a patient.
Diagnosed with breast cancer, undergoing lumpectomy and subsequent mastectomy, and grappling with fear, uncertainty, and the weight of conventional medicine, Dr. Mikulics found herself at a crossroads.
But this book is more than a cancer story. It is a journey of awakening to the mind-body-spirit connection, to the power of surrender, and to the truth that healing isn't always about battles won, but grace received.
Through yoga, integrative medicine, energy work, faith, community, and deep inner work, Dr. Mikulics discovers that true healing begins within. Honest, vulnerable, and hopeful, Set Me Free is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and a love letter to anyone who's ever felt lost, broken, or unworthy.
"True healing is not about control or perfection — it's about coming home to the Self."
"I don't have to be perfect, productive, or working a certain number of hours to be worthy of healing."
"My ongoing healing is not about a cure — it's about connection: to love, to truth, to the Divine within."
"The journey from healer to healed"

About the Author
Dr. Stefanie Mikulics is a board-certified gynecologist (OB/GYN) whose career spanned decades before illness forced a seismic shift in her identity. Educated at UCLA School of Medicine, she practiced women's health and gynecology, and was known for her dedication to her patients' well-being.
When breast cancer disrupted not just her body but her sense of self, Dr. Mikulics embarked on a deeply personal journey. Through surgery, integrative practices, mind-body work, spiritual exploration, and a powerful internal reckoning, she moved from healer to healed, reclaiming her voice, her worth, and her inner peace.
Today, she shares her story not just as a doctor, but as a woman who learned what it truly means to heal, receive, and live again.
