Diving deep into my journey with cancer and how it has forever changed me in so many unexpected ways with the hope that I inspire others to believe in their strength and their ability to overcome the seemingly insurmountable challenges in their own lives.

The Beginning
Life. There are many things that can have a profound effect on it; death of loved ones, loss of a relationship, major illness. If you are here, it is likely you have experienced something life altering, or maybe you are going through a difficult time and need to know you aren’t alone.
