12: Emily Tells Us Why You Shouldn’t Ignore Strange Nipples, And How She’s Living for Tomorrow

Listen to this episode from Ya Never Know w/ Jake Haendel on Spotify. Emily joins us with a story that starts with something unexpected: strange nipple changes that turned out to be cancer. She opens up about the fear, the fight, and the strength it took to survive — and why paying attention to your body could save your life. We also talk about what it means to live after cancer, how to stay empowered through the hardest battles, and what to say to your kids when you’re facing the unthinkable. I open up about my own experience with almost dying, and the years I spent living with a terminally ill mother battling cancer — and how it left a mark that still shapes me today. This conversation is raw, powerful, and filled with takeaways for anyone navigating illness — or supporting someone who is.
