Ever thought a simple health scare could redefine your life's priorities? Meet Travis Brady, our resilient guest who was misdiagnosed with appendicitis, but soon found herself facing stage 3A ER/PR positive breast cancer. Her journey from self-neglect to becoming her own health advocate is not just inspiring; it's a wake-up call for all of us to prioritize self-care. Travis's story underscores the critical lesson of putting on your own oxygen mask first—a concept she embodies through her fight and survival.

Join us as Travis recounts the tumultuous path from her initial misdiagnosis to the discovery of a rare ovarian vein thrombosis, and ultimately, a severe breast cancer revelation. Amidst the chaos of relocating her family across the country, her world turned upside-down. Yet, through surgeries and grueling chemotherapy sessions, her determination to seek second opinions and make informed health decisions showcases the profound impact of being your own advocate in the medical maze.

In the latter part of our conversation, Travis introduces her book, which will be released on October 8, 2024, "Make Room for Healing: 40 Tips from a Breast Cancer Survivor," a heartfelt compilation of practical advice and personal wisdom. Her mission? To ease the journey for others facing similar battles. We also touch on critical topics of breast cancer prevention and awareness, emphasizing informed decision-making about hormone treatments and the invaluable support of the breast cancer community. Travis's journey is a powerful testament to the strength and resilience of survivors, offering hope and guidance to anyone navigating their health challenges.
