    THATS A WRAP!

    This episode is a really quick recap / wrap up of the very first season of The Big C.


    We not only shared our personal stories but brought on 14 inspiring guests who shared their powerful stories, and along the way, we learned so much.


    We have had an amazing time, and connected with so many wonderful people.


    The opportunities that have come our way have been truly humbling, and we’re so grateful for all the support.


    We’re taking a well-deserved break and can’t wait to return in 2025 for more meaningful conversations. Stay tuned!
