Behind Closed Doors: Divorce, Reconstruction, Courage, and Resilience

Host Shellie Turner engages in a heartfelt conversation with breast cancer veteran Asha Miller. They explore the often untalked-about complexities and long-term impacts of living with the disease. Asha opens up about her divorce following her diagnosis, the intricate relationship dynamics that evolved, and the supportive co-parenting setup with her ex-husband for the well-being of their children. Delving deeper into the conversation around breast reconstruction following mastectomy, Asha shares that she plans to undergo a 'deep flap surgery'. She also reveals her engagement with the breast cancer community, including her involvement in the upcoming 'Camp Breasties'.
