In this powerful and deeply moving episode, I sit down with Becca Barnes, a remarkable woman whose life was forever changed by two devastating diagnoses — first, her son’s rare genetic disorder, and later, her own battle with breast cancer.

Becca opens up with raw honesty about the moments that shattered her world and the journey that followed — one filled with fear, resilience, faith, and a love that refused to break. She shares how these challenges reshaped her outlook on life, deepened her compassion, and taught her to find beauty in even the hardest seasons.

With heartfelt honesty and wisdom and moments of quiet reflection, Becca reminds us that while we cannot always choose what happens to us, we can choose how we respond — and that true strength is often born in the darkest storms.

This is a conversation about facing the unthinkable, finding purpose in pain, and discovering just how strong we can be when life gives us no other choice.

Tune in for a heartfelt conversation about motherhood, courage, healing, and the incredible power of the human spirit.
