The Burn

Odd Girl Out with Jasmine Souers


Listen Later

Today, Jasmine Souers is here to read a piece she wrote for Wildfire Magazine’s “Social” issue. We are going to hear about finding one’s place in the aftermath of being diagnosed young, when no one else you know has experienced what you have. How do you find others like you? Jasmine found her people at a breast cancer conference one weekend in Jacksonville, Florida. And from there began the work of helping others feel that they too belong. We hope today’s episode will inspire you to connect with the resources discussed, or to begin to form your own group.
