This month, we are bringing back an older interview from Stephanie Ruff and Aviva, where they interviewed Chelsey Canedy. The reason we are revisiting this interview is that Chelsey has a new book out, and we are looking forward to getting her BACK on the podcast to talk to us about her latest book. We thought it would be great for people to hear her original story so they could be up to date when we interview her later this year. Whether you heard it on the original interview or this is your first time hearing about Chelsey, we hope you enjoy this podcast! As always, if you enjoy the content we put out, please subscribe, hit the like button and share with your friends!
