Summary

One of my favourite guests is back on the podcast this week, my mam Letitia!

Last year Mam was diagnosed with breast cancer and went through all her treatment during my pregnancy.
It was one fo the hardest times in our lives, especially with me not being able to attend her last chemo treatment because I was giving birth to Alba.

Mam and I sit down for a little bit of a hard conversation today to talk about her journey through breast cancer.
