About the Episode

Tawsha discusses her diagnosis of ovarian cancer, and how it affects her at the mere age of only 46. She is honest and open about how it affects her marriage to her high school sweetheart and beautiful family, how she gets through the not so good days, and where she gets her strength and positivity from. Tawsha shares the lessons she has learned so far in this journey, her future plans to renew her vows in Hawaii, and reminds us that it’s okay to deeply feel any emotion that comes our way.
