Welcome to Wellness Unmas. I'm Dr. Nicole Sapphire, and today's episode I am so excited for.

0:08.4

It's one, I believe, is going to resonate deeply with many of you. My guest is Scott Adams,

0:14.7

creator of the legendary Dilbert comic strip, social commentator, and someone who has really just spent

0:20.3

decades helping us laugh

0:21.8

at the quirks of, I don't know, just modern day life. But today, Scott is also going to join me

0:27.7

in a bit of a different role, that of a patient navigating one of the most challenging diagnoses

0:33.4

a man can face. Stage 4 prostate cancer. Like he has for decades before, he has been

1:38.1

conversation, we are going to go well beyond the medicine. We're going to talk about resilience,

1:41.8

decision-making, and truly how facing mortality

1:44.9

can reshape one's view of life, their creativity and legacy. And don't worry, we're not only

1:51.4

going to be talking about cancer. I'm going to ask him about a whole bunch of things, including
