What happens when you're faced with your own mortality? For most, the idea of death is terrifying - but not for Annie Bennett.
In this deeply moving episode, Annie opens up about her cancer diagnosis, how it progressed to the bones, and why she refuses to let fear take over.
Faced with the terminality and unpredictability of life, Annie made a powerful choice about how to spend her time: by starting her own Community Interest Company (CIC) to support young adults facing cancer, particularly those without a strong support system.
She shares her experiences navigating the healthcare system, the often-overlooked challenges for young adults dealing with a diagnosis, and the incredible effect of attitude on prognosis.
Lisa also weighs in with her thoughts on how AI could one day help us survive life-threatening conditions and what the future of medicine might look like.
This conversation is a raw, thought-provoking look at life, death, legacy, and the mindset shift that comes with facing the inevitable.
