On this episode of the Who We Become podcast, I have a very special guest, who I served in the Air Force with, Echelle McArthur.
But the reason we are here today is her story of rebirth. She shares with us why she has two birthdays, and rightly so.
The way that Chelle was able to think so quickly on her feet is the very reason she is here to tell us about it. Today, May 13, 2026, marks two years that she was taken to the hospital.
Maybe you need a reminder that life is a gift, maybe you're a nurse and you forgot why you went into your field, maybe you have a family member who you've seen in the hospital for something life altering and haven't understood their perspective because you think they're fine...this is the episode that covers all of the above.
Chelle is the life of the party because she brings life to the every day things we often forget to be grateful for and I can't wait for you to hear her tell us her story.
If you feel called to reach out connect with Chelle about her story, her Instagram is @_chelleeeee__
