Good People!
Welcome to the next episode in The Survivor Series of This Exceptional Journey Podcast!! I can't believe it is July already? It will be Winter before we know it!
This year with the podcast, you won't be lulled by just my sultry vocal tones, you will also hear the personal journeys of other cancer survivors whose stories I am sure will touch your heart. My hope is that these amazing people inspire, empower and ignite you to go out there and live life fully despite what hand you are dealt.
In this episode of the podcast, you will meet Neha Kothari, a fellow young adult breast cancer survivor who is also a member of the Young Adult Cancer Support Group (YACS) with the Cancer Cancer Caring Center in Pittsburgh, PA. She shares her own exceptional journey with being diagnosed at 36, how breast cancer has shaped her view of life and how there is life after diagnosis!
