    Episode 7: The Importance of Music with Elle

    Leave Us Feedback In this episode, I sit down with Elle — my amazing podcast editor and all-round legend — to talk about one of our greatest loves: music. We dive into the songs and sounds that shaped our lives, the playlists that got us through the tough times, and how music connects us in ways that words sometimes can’t. It’s not so much about cancer this time, and maybe that’s why it’s one of my favourites. It’s just two friends sharing stories, laughing, and celebrating the power of music.
