    S2 Ep 2: The Other Side W/ Netania Mundell

    A lot of times there are things you want to to do but you are completely fearful of doing, and sharing this story was definitely one of them.  This episode was actually recorded since October 2019 but never released ...until now.  Why the delay? I have been terrified of sharing this story because it is really just an even more personal one for me ...what can be more personal than S1 Episode 1 episode?  Definitley this one.

    But it was time for this story to be shared and be out there into the world and I had an incredible guest who also joined me for this story!   Someone who would have been a guest in one of my first episodes - Netainia Mundell of @netschatpodcast.

    We dive into our own personal stories of dealing with losing parents to cancer, how we view cancer now and prevention is better than cure.


    What a way to say welcome back!  I really hope you enjoy this episode <3
