In this episode, I talk with Joelle about her experience being diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer and the steps she took to navigate the shock, confusion, and rapid decisions that followed. She shares how she organized support, the importance of having the right oncologist, and how clearly asking for help made a huge difference.

We also talk about her book Crushing the Cancer Curveball, the power of community, and her idea of "happiness tripwires"—small moments that spark joy and help you stay grounded through life's hardest seasons. Her story is honest, empowering, and full of wisdom for anyone navigating a curveball of their own.
