This conversation is for anyone navigating a long-term relationship alongside personal change, illness, or growth that reshapes who you are. We reflect on the early years of our relationship, the challenges we faced growing up together, and the impact a cancer diagnosis had on both of us at a young age. We talk openly about the emotional weight of that season, the year we spent apart, and how those experiences changed the way we show up for each other now.
