This episode is all about my friend Sarah. She is full of life, energy, and wisdom. She gained a great perspective and a love for life as she grew older, but at age 17, her life was on the line. Listen and learn about how she dealt with it all to become the woman she is today. Again, shoutout to the talented musical couple Blaqestone for allowing me to use their song Sunny Days for the outro!
