Not only does Sara talk with us about getting diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 34, but she also talks about how she went through it as a single mother navigating life with a six-year-old.
We talk about
+How she advocated for herself and encourages parents to ask the same things for themselves that they do for their children
+How asking for help was non-negotiable and she had to learn to get comfortable with it
+How she told her six-year-old that she had cancer and her daughter's emotional response to having a mother go through chemotherapy and painful surgeries.
