This week’s episode of Two Dancing Widows is one of the most personal conversations the podcast has ever shared.

Toni turns the microphone toward her co-host Hettie Collins, who opens her heart about the life and loss of her daughter Brandi Collins-Dexter.

Brandi was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer on December 31, 2024, and passed away on June 25, 2025, just six months later. In this emotional and courageous conversation, Hettie reflects on Brandi’s life—from her early years as the youngest of four children to the love and impact she had on everyone around her.
