After the Bell is a new series on my channel where I chat with resilient individuals that have been touched by cancer. What most people don't realize about cancer is that most often the true fight is "after the bell" .. meaning... when active treatment stops or when you're home, in your own thoughts, anticipating what is next and dealing with the mental warfare cancer can bring on... that's when the real fight is. What I want this podcast to highlight is that there is more to life after diagnosis/trauma/setback. There is more to YOU than that. So, I'm here to talk about it all with my guests through conversation, storytelling, realness, camaraderie, and vulnerability. This series will hopefully turn on the light and open the doors for those who may feel there weren’t any. Available on YouTube Podcast, Spotify, + Apple Podcast.
