Manage episode 434809521 series 3593766
I'm so excited to have Katie on the show today! You will see like I did, how much love and kindness just radiates from this woman. I'm beyond blessed to have such a beautiful conversation with this mama.
Katie Joy Duke is an author, mindset coach for women, transformational speaker, and mom of 2 daughters...one living and one in spirit. She practiced social justice law for 9 years before her firstborn daughter Poppy was stillborn at full-term.
Motivated to heal from her devastating loss, she left her legal career in 2016 and spent 6 years writing her bestselling memoir, Still Breathing: My Journey with Love, Loss, and Reinvention which she published May of 2022.
Only days after submitting her final manuscript to her copy editor, Katie got her first ever mammogram. That scan led to many others, and at the tender age of 41, Katie was diagnosed with Stage 4 metastatic breast cancer. She completed 5 months of chemotherapy in August, had mastectomy and lymph node surgery in October, and 6 weeks of radiation this January and February.
Authenticity is her #1 value and she looks forward to writing another memoir about her healing journey with cancer.
Please Join us in this candid and soulful conversation between loss moms. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
