Customer Reviews
Even if you haven’t experience cancer first hand this is gold!
Regina and her guests speak candidly from the heart. Even if you are not personally a cancer survivor, you probably know someone who is and this perspective will help you to be an empathetic friend. The episodes are entertaining and uplifting because Regina gives a fresh and hopeful perspective to a difficult situation.
Great podcast for living wholly and holistically
Life Well-Lived is such a great podcast for real stories from people touched by cancer. And, it goes so much deeper than being a survivor's story. Regina and her guests offer real actionable advice for living your best life and many of the stories are a reminder of how precious life is and how important it is to choose a life that fills & nourishes you mind, body, & soul.
Relevant and beautifully real
This podcast is so obviously committed to sharing a life well lived in ways that support listeners on an immediate practical level in good times and bad. Regina’s healing and engaged tone deep dives into important stuff, but makes it so accessible for anyone to benefit. Thank you, Regina.
