In this inspiring and educational episode, BJ sits down with Shane Grant, who has been living with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) for nearly two decades. Over the years, Shane became her own best advocate—learning about her disease, seeking out specialists, and pushing for answers.

 

Her persistence and courage led her through a long and emotional journey that ultimately resulted in a life-saving heart transplant earlier this year.

This conversation offers hope and guidance for anyone affected by HCM or navigating their own transplant journey.

 

You’ll hear Shane’s powerful reflections on:

 

  • What it’s really like to live with HCM for 20 years

  • The importance of self-advocacy and education

  • The emotional and physical challenges before and after transplant

  • How her new heart has transformed her outlook on life

 

 

Whether you’re a patient, family member, or healthcare professional, this episode is filled with valuable insight and encouragement.
