Alexandra Simms thought she was living the perfect life - successful career, beautiful family, everything "right" on paper. Then breast cancer changed everything.

In this raw and powerful conversation, Alexandra shares how her 2017 diagnosis became the turning point that forced her to stop people-pleasing, start healing, and finally live in alignment with who she really is. We talk about burnout, trauma, motherhood, and what it means to let something painful wake you up instead of break you!

Listen to Alexandra's journey, how she created her podcast Cancer Cured Me, and why she believes life gives you one chance to get it right.
