How Do You Face a Future You Didn’t Choose? – Laura Lummer

What do you do when something happens that you can’t control and you’re terrified of what comes next? For Laura Lummer, that moment came with a devastating cancer diagnosis. She couldn’t control what was happening or how the people she loved reacted to it, but she could decide where to put her energy. Laura joins host Julie Rose to talk about fear, the surprising weight of other people’s feelings, and learning to look toward the life ahead instead of the one you thought you’d have.
