'My face didn’t look like anything I would see or the conversations I would hear so I didn’t even think bowel cancer was a possibility,' says Emily.

A positive attitude helped Emily navigate her stage 3 bowel cancer diagnosis at just 37.

Emily and Stephanie discuss fertility after a cancer diagnosis, navigating cancer when you are young and single, as well as how family and friends were integral in supporting her through her bowel cancer journey.

An authentic and honest conversation that highlights the importance of not sweating the small stuff and learning to be kind to yourself and others around you.
