Amazing podcast as expected. Everything Melissa touches turns into gold. Heartwarming, honest, and raw.
The sister I never wanted…
Melissa is the sister I never wanted, but am SO unbelievably happy to have. Being a part of this cancer “sisterhood” is tough, but when you have someone like Melissa in your life it certainly makes this j0uRneY a h3ll of a lot better! Being able to talk about something I’m very passionate about with her was so much fun. It was both a very fun and educating experience. She’s so professional when it comes to her podcasts, but when its to our time to speak, it’s like we’re just meeting for coffee/cocktails and just shooting the breeze!
