Losing titles, roles or status can leave anyone questioning who they really are.

From the brutal loss of her father and the passing of her sister, to her own cancer battles, Julie’s story is one of resilience, honesty and deep transformation.In this episode, Julie opens up about what happens when identity is built on performance and recognition, and what it looks like to rebuild on something that cannot be taken away.
