    EPISODE 22 / YOU ARE THE ONE... SUZANNE McCAULEY

    "In the end... YOU are the one you've been waiting for!" You may or may not know my guest today, Suzanne McCulley, but after you listen to her story of life lessons, I promise, you'll want to be the first one in line to become a member of Suzanne's Fan Club. After listening to her story and her wisdoms, you'll want to do the same thing I wanted to do... just give her a big hug. This is a person of enthusiasm, bravery, strength, and a love for life. She uses words like honor, privilege, balance, and love. You'll also hear Suzanne use the words cancer, oncologist and chemotherapy.   Like me, I'm sure you'll be so impressed with how Suzanne allows herself to be so vulnerable in telling her story. #neveralone #alwayshope Send us a text To Share Your Thoughts... email Tom at: lifelessonswithtompodcast@gmail.com THANKS FOR LISTENING!
