In this episode of Breakthrough, Chris sits down with Corey Luckow for a raw and grounded conversation about surviving cancer twice before 35, and building a top-performing mortgage career through both battles.

They break down what it actually takes to keep showing up when your health, your identity, and your future are all on the line, and how Corey turned two stage 3 melanoma diagnoses into the foundation for a more intentional life, business, and brand. They also talk about her first diagnosis at 20, navigating treatment as a newlywed in a new city, the 10-year mark when cancer came back, and how motherhood shifted everything about how she shows up.
