This week I have had the absolute privilege of interviewing Kate & Claudia Nicholls, cancer bullies & hosts of the fabulous 'Stage 4 Clinger' podcast. We discuss life after a Stage 4 Breast cancer diagnosis, the importance of looking after yourself as a caregiver, and adjusting your coping mechanisms within a global pandemic. Claudia also validates my personal opinion that a 3 hour nap is in fact a nap - not a sleep.
